Control
via
mobile
devices
Depending on the vehicle equipment, mobile
devices 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
connection, this includes, for instance position data and other general vehicle information.This optimizes the way in which selected apps,for instance 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
device.
Services
General
information If the vehicle has a wireless network connec~tion, this enables data to be exchanged be~tween the vehicle and other systems. The wire~
less network connection is realized via an in- vehicle transmitter and receiver unit or viapersonal mobile devices brought into the vehi~
cle, for instance smartphones. This wireless net~ work connection enables 'online functions' to
be used. These include online services and apps supplied by the vehicle manufacturer or by
other providers.
Services
from
the
vehicle
manufacturer Where online services from the vehicle manu~facturer are concerned, the correspondingfunctions are described in the appropriateplace, for instance the Owner's Manual or man~
ufacturer's website. The relevant legal informa~ tion pertaining to data protection is providedthere too. Personal data may be used to per~form online services. Data is exchanged over a
secure connection, for instance with the IT sys~ tems of the vehicle manufacturer intended for
this purpose. Any collection, processing, and
use of personal data above and beyond that
needed to provide the services must always be
based on a legal permission, contractual ar~
rangement or consent.
In addition, the vehicle manufacturer evaluates
anonymized information on transport infra~
structure and how the infotainment system is
used. This information cannot be traced back to
individual vehicles or people. Evaluating the
data enables the manufacturer to further im~
prove its products or services, for instance by
incorporating the most up-to-date traffic bulle~
tins. The data transfer feature can be deacti~
vated in the vehicle. Certain services and func~
tions, some of which are subject to a charge,
can be deactivated by the driver. It is also pos~
sible to activate or deactivate the data connec~
tion as a whole. That is, with the exception of
functions and services required by law such as
Assist systems.
Services
from
other
providers When using online services from other provid~ers, these services are the responsibility of therelevant provider and subject to their data pri~vacy conditions and terms of use. The vehiclemanufacturer has no influence on the contentexchanged during this process. Information onthe way in which personal data is collected and
used in relation to services from third parties,
the scope of such data, and its purpose, can be
obtained from the relevant service provider.
