Purpose
Explain safety, claims, and training objectives for dashcam use and footage consumption.
A written policy reduces ambiguity about data ownership, consent, and admissibility of footage during claims. It supports consistent underwriting, helps manage privacy risk, and clarifies procedures for extraction, chain of custody, and permitted disclosures to third parties such as adjusters and law enforcement.
Stakeholders who draft, sign, or follow the policy include insurers, fleet managers, drivers, and third-party vendors handling recordings.
Clear role definitions reduce disputes and speed claims processing when footage is needed.
