10Radio reception may be affected by the
use of electrical equipment not approved
by the Brand, such as a charger with USB
socket connected to the 12
V socket.
The exterior environment (hills, buildings,
tunnels, basement car parks, etc.) may block
reception, including in RDS mode. This
phenomenon is normal in the propagation
of radio waves and does not indicate any
malfunction of the system.

Vehicle data recording and privacy
Vehicle data recording
and privacy
Electronic control units are installed in your
vehicle. These control units process data
received from the vehicle's sensors, for example,
or data they generate themselves or exchange
with each other. Some of these control units are
required for the correct operation of your vehicle,
some others assist you while driving (driving or
manoeuvring aids), while others provide comfort
or infotainment functions.
The following contains general information about
how data is processed within the vehicle.
You will find additional information about the
specific data which is downloaded, stored
and transmitted to third parties and what it is
used for in your vehicle under the keyword
"Data protection". This information is directly
associated with the references for the functions
in question contained in the corresponding
vehicle handbook, or in the general terms and
conditions of sale.
This information is also available online.
Vehicle operating data
The control units process the data used for the
operation of the vehicle.
This data includes, for example:
–
Information about the state of the vehicle
(e.g.

speed, travel time, lateral acceleration,
wheel rotation rate, fastened seat belts display). –

Environmental conditions (e.g.
temperature,
rain sensor, distance sensor).
As a general rule, this data is temporary, is
not stored for longer than one operating cycle
and is only used within the vehicle itself. The
control units often record this data (including the
vehicle's key). This function allows either the
temporary or permanent storage of information
about the state of the vehicle, stresses on
components, servicing requirements, as well as
events and technical errors.
Depending on the vehicle's equipment level, the
data stored is as follows:
–
Operating state of system components
(e.g.
filling level, tyre pressures, battery charge
status).
–
Faults and malfunctions in important system
components (e.g.
lamps, brakes).
–
System reactions in specific driving situations
(e.g.
deployment of an airbag, triggering of
stability control and braking systems).
–
Information about events which have
damaged the vehicle.
–

For electric and rechargeable hybrid vehicles,
the traction battery charge level and the
estimated driving range.
In particular circumstances (e.g.
if the vehicle
has detected a malfunction), it may be necessary
to record data which would otherwise simply not
be stored.
When taking your vehicle in for servicing
(e.g.
repairs, maintenance), the stored operating
data may be read along with the vehicle's identification number and used if necessary.
The personnel working for the servicing network
(e.g.
garages, manufacturers) or third parties
(e.g. roadside assistance agents) may read
the vehicle's data. This also applies to work
carried out under warranty and quality assurance
measures.
This data is generally read via the OBD
(On-Board Diagnostics) port fitted by law to
the vehicle. It is used to report on the technical
state of the vehicle or its components and
facilitates the diagnosis of malfunctions, in
compliance with warranty obligations and for
quality improvement. This data, in particular the
information relating to stress on components,
technical events, operator errors and other
malfunctions, is sent to the Manufacturer, if
necessary, along with the vehicle's identification
number. The Manufacturer's liability may also be
engaged. The Manufacturer may also use the
operating data taken from the vehicle for product
recalls. This data may also be used to check the
customer's warranty and any claims made under
warranty.
Any malfunctions stored in the vehicle may be
reset by an after-sales service company during
servicing or repair work, or at your request.

–


Data regarding the use of online services.
This data for the comfort and infotainment
functions may be stored locally in the vehicle
or saved to a device that you have connected
to the vehicle (e.g.

smartphone, USB memory
stick or MP3 player). Data that you have entered
yourself may be deleted at any time.
This data may also be transmitted outside the
vehicle at your request, particularly when using online services in line with the settings that you
have selected. Smartphone integration
(e.g.

Android
Auto
® or
Apple
®CarPlay®)
If your vehicle is equipped accordingly, you can
connect your smartphone or another mobile
device to the vehicle in order to operate it using
the vehicle's integrated controls. Images and
sounds from the smartphone can be transmitted
through the audio and telematics system.
Specific information is simultaneously sent
to your smartphone. Depending on the type
of
integration, this includes data such as location,
day/night mode and other general information
about the vehicle. For more information, please
refer to the user instructions for the vehicle or the
audio and telematics system.
Integrating a smartphone allows you to use
its applications, such as a navigation app or
music player. No other
integration between
the smartphone and the vehicle is possible, in
particular active access to vehicle data. How the
data is processed subsequently is determined
by the supplier of the application being used.
The ability the change settings depends on the
application in question and on the operating
system installed on your smartphone.
Online services
If your vehicle is connected to a wireless
network, data can be exchanged between
your vehicle and other systems. Connection
to a wireless network is made possible
via a
transmitter located in your vehicle or a mobile
device that you have provided (e.g.

smartphone).
The online services can be used via this wireless
connection.

These include online services and
applications (apps) provided to you by the
Manufacturer or other suppliers.
Exclusive services
As regards the Manufacturer's online services,
the corresponding functions are described by
the Manufacturer in an appropriate medium
(e.g.
handbook, Manufacturer's website) and the
information about data protection is provided.
Personal data may be used for online services.
The exchange of data for this purpose takes
place over a secure connection, using for
example the Manufacturer's dedicated computer
systems. The collection, processing and use of
personal data for the development of services
are carried out solely on the basis of a legal
authorisation, for example in the case of a
legal emergency call system or a contractual
agreement or else under a consent agreement.
You can activate or deactivate the services and
functions (some may be chargeable) and, in
some cases, the vehicle's entire connection to
the wireless network. This does not include the

214
Vehicle data recording and privacy
statutory functions and services such as the
emergency or assistance call system.
Third-party services
If you use online services provided by other
(third-party) suppliers, these services are subject
to the responsibility, the data protection and
the terms and conditions of use of the supplier
in question. The Manufacturer often has no
influence over the content exchanged in this
regard.
Please therefore ensure that you are aware of
the nature, extent and purpose of the collection
and use of personal data as part of the third-
party services provided by the service provider
in question.
