Data entry and data transfer into the
vehicle
General information
Depending on the vehicle equipment, some data
can be transferred into the vehicle when using
comfort and infotainment functions, for instance:
▷ Multimedia data such as music or movies for
playback in an integrated multimedia system.
▷ Address book data for use in conjunction with
an integrated hands-free system or an
integrated navigation system.
▷ Entered navigation destinations.
▷ Data on the use of Internet services.
This data can be stored locally in the vehicle or is
found on a device that has been connected to
the vehicle, e.g., a smartphone, USB stick or
MP3 player. If this data is stored in the vehicle, it
can be deleted at any time. This data is only
transmitted to third parties if expressly desired.
This depends on the personal settings selected
for using online services.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the follow‐
ing comfort and individual settings can be stored
in the vehicle and modified at any time, for in‐
stance:
▷ Settings for the seat and steering wheel posi‐
tions.
▷ Suspension and climate control settings.
▷ Individual settings, for instance lighting in the
car's interior.
Control via mobile devices
Depending on the vehicle equipment, mobile de‐
vices connected to the vehicle, for instance
smartphones, can be controlled via the vehicle
control elements. The sound and picture from
the mobile device can be played back and dis‐
played through the multimedia system. Certain
information is transferred to the mobile device at
the same time. Depending on the type of con‐
nection, this includes, for instance position data
and other general vehicle information. This opti‐
mizes the way in which selected apps, for in‐
stance navigation or music playback, work.
There is no further interaction between the mo‐
bile device and the vehicle, for instance active
access to vehicle data. How the data will be
processed further is determined by the provider
of the particular app being used. The extent of
the possible settings depends on the respective
app and the operating system of the mobile de‐
vice.
Services
General information
If the vehicle has a wireless network connection,
this enables data to be exchanged between the
vehicle and other systems. The wireless network
connection is realized via an in-vehicle transmit‐
ter and receiver unit or via personal mobile devi‐
ces brought into the vehicle, for instance smart‐
phones. This wireless network connection
enables 'online functions' to be used. These in‐
clude online services and apps supplied by the
vehicle manufacturer or by other providers.
Services from the vehicle manufacturer
Where online services from the vehicle manufac‐
turer are concerned, the corresponding functions
are described in the appropriate place, for in‐
stance the Owner's Manual or manufacturer's
website. The relevant legal information pertaining
to data protection is provided there too. Personal
data may be used to perform online services.
Data is exchanged over a secure connection,
for instance with the IT systems of the vehicle
manufacturer intended for this purpose. Any col‐
lection, processing, and use of personal data
above and beyond that needed to provide the
services must always be based on a legal per‐
mission, contractual arrangement or consent.
In addition, the vehicle manufacturer evaluates
anonymized information on transport infrastruc‐
ture and how the infotainment system is used.
This information cannot be traced back to indi‐
vidual vehicles or people. Evaluating the data en‐
