encrypted and includes your VIN, SYNC 3
module number, anonymous usage statistics
and debugging information. Updates may
take place automatically.

into groups. You can grant these group
permissions individually. You can change a
permission group status any time when not

the settings menu, you can also see the data
included in each group. When you launch an app using SYNC 3, the
system may ask you to grant certain
permissions, for example Vehicle information,
Driving characteristics, GPS and Speed,
and/or Push notifications. You can enable all
groups or none of them during the initial app
permissions prompts. The settings menu
offers individual group permission control.

permissions the first time you use an app
with SYNC 3.

will still be enabled to work with SYNC 3
unless you deactivate All Apps in the settings
menu.
