10. Security
10.1 Security is at our core.
The Application and the underlying cloud infrastructure are designed to have a high level of security, focusing on protection of data. OBI+ monitors that the necessary technical and organizational security measures are in place to prevent accidental or illegal destruction, loss or impairment of personal data and to protect personal data from disclosure to unauthorized parties, misuse or otherwise being treated in a manner contrary to legislation on processing of personal data. Thus, data is transmitted from your vehicle via an encrypted, secure connection, and the servers on which the data are located are protected by leading security measures. Additionally, the personal information and the vehicle information (e.g. current location) have been separated in different databases, that are connected through unique identifiers, that limit the damage from a potential breach. Access to data from OBI+ employees is managed based on a principle of necessity. This means that only a few highly trusted people have access to data, and their activities are always monitored.
10.2 Data breach
In the unlikely case of a data breach, be it internal or external (e.g. unauthorised access to our server) OBI+ shall notify all affected parties within 72 hours of the time of becoming aware of the accident as specified in 33-1 of GDPR.
