BluFax technology does not circumvent any security or privacy protocols. Rather, the method complies fully with existing protocols. Traffax’s patent pending technology relates to the efficient implementation so that it is effective to measure travel time on roadways, transit and pedestrian facilities.
The radio identification used to sample travel time cannot be traced to owner of the device, or to the vehicle. The radio IDs are assigned at the electronics factory, and not traced through the sales chain. This inherent protection provided by Bluetooth prevents tracking a person based on their Bluetooth device without first isolating the Bluetooth device in order to determine and record its ID. Furthermore, individuals concerned with privacy can opt out simply by deactivating the discoverable mode.
