The Privacy Button is an in-vehicle button that allows drivers to temporarily disable GPS location tracking. When pressed, it enables Privacy Mode for the vehicle.
While Privacy Mode is active, the Samsara dashboard shows a gray dot at the last reported vehicle location. In the vehicle details page, a privacy icon and Privacy Mode status are also displayed.
A trip segment automatically ends after five minutes of inactivity. If a driver presses the Privacy Button and does not re-enable tracking within five minutes, the current trip segment ends. If tracking is disabled before a trip begins, that trip segment will not appear in reports at all.
Equipment and activity reports do not include auxiliary or non-private details about Privacy Button usage. However, you can view privacy-related activity in the Privacy Sessions Report.
The Privacy Button is available in two models depending on your Vehicle Gateway version. For more information on specifications, see the Privacy Button datasheet.
