FAQs
D-iD stands for Driver Identification and works as driver recognition system for Global Telemetrics monitored Thatcham S5 vehicle tracking systems. D-iD® works through the GTE App notifying the end user via push message if the vehicle is driven.
With the D-iD® system you no longer have to carry driver tags whenever you drive your vehicle. The Driver Identification utilises your mobile device instead.
No information from the D-iD® app is held on any Global Telemetrics Servers. The information is only stored on the end users handset/mobile device. For further information please view our Privacy Policy by visiting globaltelemetrics.com/terms.
The app is designed to periodically wake in the background to inform our servers it's ready and listening for new events on the vehicle. There will be some drain when this happens but it will be negligible. When the verification process starts itself this uses more battery power, because it sets off location processing, bluetooth connectivity and network connections. These all have an impact.
Global Telemetrics is recognised as ISO 27001. This ISO certification is for ‘Information Security Management’. For further information regarding ISO 27001 please visit bsigroup.com
