North America Privacy Blurring

North America privacy blurring is designed for fleets in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. This feature automatically detects and blurs faces and license plates, but is fully configurable at both the fleet and vehicle levels.

Overview

Privacy blurring is designed to help fleets strengthen privacy protection and comply with regional data laws. It works by:

• Protecting sensitive information by blurring faces and license plates in road-facing and driver-facing footage.
• Enhancing privacy controls for North America regions with configurable blurring options for both road-facing and driver-facing cameras.
• Maintaining auditability with logs for all blurring actions, stored for at least 12 months.
• Ensuring accuracy and safety through fallback logic that blurs entire figures or vehicles when PII cannot be precisely detected.
   

What North America Privacy Blurring Includes

The feature:

• Detects and blurs faces and license plates in road-facing footage.
• Blurs selected faces in driver-facing footage (driver, passengers, or both).
• Supports granular configuration per camera type.
• Applies blurring only to new media captured after activation.
• Uses fallback logic to blur the entire person or vehicle when detection is uncertain.
• Logs all actions for at least 12 months.
• Respects all role-based access settings.
