Abstract
A personal information protection device to be applied to a vehicle includes a state detector, a data receiver, and a data processor. The state detector detects state data including a state of an occupant or an inside of a vehicle compartment. The data receiver acquires the state data from the state detector. The data processor executes processing on the state data. The data processor: obfuscates the state data, and saves the state data obfuscated in a first memory; upon acquiring first trigger information related to prediction information on an accident involving the vehicle, encrypts the obfuscated state data saved in the first memory, and saves the state data encrypted in a second memory; and, upon acquiring second trigger information related to prediction information or occurrence information on an accident involving the vehicle, starts a process of storing the encrypted state data in a third memory.
