1.INTRODUCTION
This Appendix specifies the design and the procedures to follow in order to implement the interface with Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) as required in Article 10 of Regulation (EU) No. 165/2014 (the Regulation).
The Regulation specifies that the tachographs of vehicles may be equipped with standardised interfaces allowing the data recorded or produced by tachograph to be used in operational mode, by an external device, provided that the following conditions are met:
the interface does not affect the authenticity and the integrity of the data of the tachograph;
the interface complies with the detailed provisions of Article 11 of the Regulation;
the external device connected to the interface has access to personal data, including geopositioning data, only after the verifiable consent of the driver to whom the data relates.
