This data can be saved locally in the vehicle or is
located on a device that you have connected to
the vehicle. If this data is saved in the vehicle,
you can delete it at any time. This data is sent to third parties only at your request, particularly
when you use online services in accordance with
the settings that you have selected.
You can save and change comfort settings/
customizations in the vehicle at any time.
Depending on the piece of equipment in ques-
tion, these can include, for example:
Rsettings for the seat and steering wheel posi- tions
Rsuspension and climate control settings
Rcustomizations such as interior lighting
If your vehicle is equipped appropriately, you
can connect your smartphone or another mobile
terminal to the vehicle. You can control this by
means of the control elements integrated in the vehicle. The smartphone's picture and sound
can be output via the multimedia system. Spe-
cific items of information are also sent to your
smartphone.
Depending on the type of integration, this can
include, for example:
Rgeneral vehicle status
Rposition data
This allows the use of selected smartphone
apps, such as navigation or music player apps.
There is no additional interaction between the
smartphone and the vehicle, particularly active
access to vehicle data. The type of additional
data processing is determined by the provider of
the app being used. Whether you can configure settings for it and, if so, which ones, depends on
the app and your smartphone's operating sys-
tem.
Service provider
Wireless network connection
If your vehicle has a wireless network connec-
tion, it enables data to be exchanged between
your vehicle and other systems. The wireless
network connection is made possible by the
vehicle's own transmitter and receiver or by
mobile end devices that you have brought into
the vehicle (e.g. smartphones). Online functions
can be used via this wireless network connec-
tion. These include online services and applica-
tions/apps provided by the manufacturer or
other providers.
Services provided by the manufacturer
In the case of the manufacturer's online serv-
ices, the manufacturer describes the functions
in a suitable place and the associated informa-
tion subject to data protection legislation. Per-
sonal data can be used in order to provide online
services. The data exchange for this takes place
via a secure connection, e.g. with the manufac- turer's IT systems intended for the purpose. Col-
lecting, processing and using personal data
beyond the provision of services is permitted
only on the basis of a statutory permit or decla-
ration of consent.
You can usually activate and deactivate the serv-
ices and functions (sometimes subject to a fee).
In many cases, this also applies to the vehicle's
entire data connection. This does not include
legally prescribed functions and services such
as the "E-Call" emergency call system.
Services from third parties
If it is possible to use online services from other
providers, these services are the responsibility
of the provider in question and subject to that
provider's data protection conditions and terms
of use. The manufacturer has no influence over
the content exchanged here.
For this reason, please ask the service providerfor information about the type, extent and pur-
pose of the collection and use of personal data
when services are provided by third parties.
