Sensitive data

We may sometimes be required, on the demand of leasing companies, to process data relating to judicial information, such as fines, traffic offences,… Use of the FMS platform to transfer data to the database of the Crossroads Bank for Vehicles. In collaboration with the Federal Public Service Mobility and Transport and the Federal Police, rS has developed an IT platform called Fines Management Services (FMS) to manage the fines related to leased or rented vehicles and to easily identify the usual driver of a vehicle owned by a leasing company or a rental company. This platform allows the authorities to collect the identification data of the usual driver of a vehicle via the database of the Crossroads Bank for Vehicles ("Database"). The Database allows the competent authorities to contact potential offenders directly without any involvement of the leasing company or the employer of the concerned person, therefore enhancing its right to privacy. In this respect, the following personal data of the driver are transferred to the FMS database: last name, first name, birthdate and license plate number. The Directorate-General for Mobility and Traffic Safety of the Federal Public Service for Mobility and Transport is the data controller of the personal data contained in the Database (Article 6 of the Law of 19 May 2010 establishing the Crossroads Bank for Vehicles). Renta ASBL is assigned by law as the entity responsible for the primary collection and actualization of such data in the Database (Article 13 of the Royal Decree of 8 July 2013 further implementing the Law of 19 May 2010).
