Information provided by your Lightfoot device

When you install a Lightfoot device it includes technology to record information about how, where and when the vehicle is being driven. We collect this information and aggregate it with other information collected by us. Examples of the type of information we collect from the Lightfoot unit include: data relating to driving efficiency, vehicle journeys (time, distance), inertial information, and diagnostic fault codes. We may request your vehicle identification number so that we can provide you with more precise feedback based on your specific vehicle. We collect information on the location of your vehicle, including your trip route, the fuel used and the parked location of your vehicle. Parked vehicle location information enables the service that helps you to find your parked vehicle. The hardware uses technologies such as GPS, Wi-Fi, and/or cell tower triangulation to record its location. Where you are using a driver ID keypad, it is your responsibility to maintain confidentiality of your unique code as that is the link between you and the information being collected.

This allows us to:

provide a real time analysis of your driving as well as a more detailed analysis of your driving performance;
provide you with the Lightfoot Services – listed in the Lightfoot terms supplied to you or your employer;
