The compliance challenge

Thousands of hours of footage per week

Fleet dashcams record continuously — pedestrian faces, vehicle plates, and street-level detail in every frame. A 50-vehicle fleet generates hundreds of hours weekly. Manual redaction at this volume is impossible.

Sharing footage creates liability

Insurance claims, accident investigations, and client reports all require sharing dashcam footage. Every unredacted face or plate in that footage is a GDPR or CCPA violation waiting to happen.

Location identifiers in every frame

Street signs, building numbers, and business names appear throughout dashcam footage. These details can identify individuals by placing them at a specific location and time.

How PiiBlur helps

Face and plate detection in motion

Blur pedestrian faces and surrounding vehicle plates captured by forward-facing and cabin-facing dashcams. AI tracks subjects across frames for consistent redaction.

Street sign and location redaction

Automatically detect and blur street signs, building numbers, and other location identifiers that could place individuals at specific locations and times.

API-first batch workflows

Process video up to 10 minutes per file via the REST API. Integrate into your fleet management pipeline with automated uploads and webhook notifications on completion.

Compliance context

GDPR

Fleet dashcam footage captures personal data of pedestrians and other drivers. Under GDPR, this data must be processed lawfully and minimized before storage or sharing.

CCPA

California fleet operations must account for CCPA when dashcam footage captures identifiable individuals. Redacting before sharing with third parties reduces compliance risk.

Frequently asked questions

How do I redact dashcam footage at scale?
PiiBlur processes dashcam video via a REST API designed for batch workflows. Upload footage programmatically, and receive redacted files via webhook notifications. Process hundreds of videos in parallel without manual intervention.
Does PiiBlur work with forward-facing and cabin-facing dashcams?
Yes. PiiBlur detects and blurs faces, license plates, and signs regardless of camera angle. This covers forward-facing road cameras, cabin-facing driver monitoring cameras, and side-mounted cameras.
What is the maximum video length PiiBlur can process?
PiiBlur processes videos up to 10 minutes per file. For longer recordings, split footage into segments before uploading. The API supports parallel processing, so multiple segments can be processed simultaneously.
Is dashcam footage considered personal data under GDPR?
Yes. Any footage that captures identifiable individuals — their faces, license plates, or location data — is personal data under GDPR. Fleet operators must have a lawful basis for processing and should minimize data retention and sharing of unredacted footage.
Can PiiBlur integrate with fleet management software?
Yes. The REST API integrates into any fleet management pipeline. Automate the flow: dashcam uploads footage → your system sends it to PiiBlur → redacted footage returns via webhook → store or share safely.
