BY TAPPING ON “I AGREE” BELOW, YOU CONSENT TO SUBMITTING DATA ABOUT YOUR GPS LOCATION, SPEED, ACCELEROMETER STATE, AND ADDITIONAL DATA FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES AND CERTIFY THAT YOU ARE AGE 18 OR OLDER. SCROLL DOWN AND READ THIS TEXT IN ITS ENTIRETY FOR COMPLETE DETAILS. YOU DO NOT NEED TO AGREE TO USE THIS APPLICATION and can make the decision to do so at a later time. This research is being conducted by Paul Borokhov under supervision from Alex Bayen, UC Berkeley.
==Introduction==
The data collected and shown to you by this application is of interest to researchers conducting a study on the impact of speed variation and cruise control usage on fuel consumption and auto emissions, conducted by University of California, Berkeley Environmental Science Department in collaboration with Mobile Millennium and California Center for Innovative Transportation (CCIT).
You are being invited to participate in this study because you have installed the DriveTracker application on your iPhone, whose main purpose is to serve as a tool for helping us collect this data.
If you agree to be in this study, you will be asked to tap the “Start trip” button when you begin a trip in your vehicle and tap the “End trip” button when your trip ends. At all times, please keep your eyes and focus on the road. Your safety is always the top priority.
The data collected and sent to CCIT the servers includes the time, GPS location, speed, and accelerometer state of the reading. In addition, if correct OBD-II WiFi hardware is present, data on fuel consumption and emissions will be sent. '''Study time:''' The amount of time you contribute to study participation is completely up to you. However, the more data you can provide to us, the better. In general, commute data from routes you travel on frequently is most useful.Study location: The locations from which you submit data are entirely up to you.
==Benefits==
You will have an opportunity to view data about trip duration and average speed for the current and previous trips. If OBD WiFi hardware is present, you will also be able to view your fuel consumption and emissions. It is hoped that the data you provide will also enable us to increase scientific knowledge of driver behavior patterns.
==Risks/Discomforts==
To minimize the risks to confidentiality, we do not store any personally-identifiable information with the data you provide to us.
'''Retaining research records:''' When the research is completed, CCIT we may save the collected data for use in future research. This data maybe retained indefinitely. The same measures described above will be taken to protect confidentiality of this study data.
==Compensation==
==Rights==
Participation in research is completely voluntary. You have the right to decline to participate or to withdraw at any point in this study without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled. If you tap “I decline” at this time, you may still continue using the application for viewing summary data on speed (and fuel consumption and emissions if OBD WiFi hardware is present) on your own device. At any time, you may join the study again by opening data collection settings and tapping the “Start sending data to CCIT.” You may stop your participation in the study at any time by going to the same screen and tapping the “Stop sending data to CCIT” data” button. Application functionality remains unchanged regardless of your participation in the study.
==Questions==
==CONSENT==
By tapping “I agree” below, you agree to have the data described above transmitted to CCIT’s our servers over the cellular or WiFi networks to which your phone is connected at the time. Furthermore, you certify that you are age 18 or older.
