Data privacy

@) Tips
— The following interfaces are not affected by
changes to the privacy settings: Bluetooth,
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Wi-Fi, Audi
smartphone interface (ASI), Near Field
Communication (NFC), charging communi-
cation (high-voltage system), Electronic Toll
Collect (ETC), On-Board Diagnostic System
(OBD) if equipped.
— If the maximum privacy settings are switch-
ed on, your vehicle may not receive security
updates and certificates for establishing an
encrypted connection, depending on vehicle
equipment. In order to receive security up-
dates and certificates, switch the maximum
privacy settings off for at least ten minutes
every six months. Make sure that your vehi-
cle is connected to the Internet. A symbol in
the MMI status bar indicates if the required
data connection is available > page 20.
— If the transmission of data is limited, it will
have the following effects on the exchange
of data for Audi connect services and emer-
gency calls, if equipped:
— The emergency call function will remain
available without restrictions and will con-
tinue to transmit data.
— If an online roadside assistance call is ini-
tiated, no data will be transmitted, but a
call will be made.
—If the Geofencing Alert, Speed Alert,
and/or Valet Alert services have been acti-
vated by the key user, then they will re-
main available without restrictions and
continue to transmit data.
— Stored destinations (favorites, last desti-
nations) are only stored in the vehicle. If
you allow transmission of data again,
these destinations will be synchronized via
the myAudi account. To prevent synchroni-
zation of destinations, delete the destina-
tions before you allow data to be trans-
mitted again.
