data. These data document the vehicle's tech-
nical states, are used to help in finding malfunc-
tions and improving quality and are sent to the
manufacturer where necessary. In addition, the
manufacturer is subject to product liability. The
manufacturer needs technical data from vehi-
cles for this purpose.
Malfunction memories in the vehicle can be
reset by a service center during repair or service
work.
You can incorporate data into the vehicle's com-
fort and infotainment functions yourself as part
of the selected equipment.
These include:
RMultimedia data such as music, films or pho-
tos for playback in an integrated multimedia
system
RAddress book data for use in conjunction with
an integrated hands-free system or an inte-
grated navigation system
RNavigation destinations that have been
entered
RData about using Internet services
These data can be saved locally in the vehicle or are located on a device that you have connected
to the vehicle. If these data are saved in the
vehicle, you can delete them at any time. These data are sent to third parties only at your
request, particularly when you use online serv-
ices 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 equipment, these settings
include:
RSeat and steering wheel position settings
RSuspension and climate control settings
RCustom settings 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, such infor-
mation includes:
RGeneral vehicle information
RPosition data This allows you to use selected apps on your
smartphon
e, such as navigation or music play-
back. There is no additional interaction between
the smartphone and the vehicle, particularly
active access to vehicle data. The type of addi-
tional data processing is determined by the pro- vider 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 system.
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 enabled by either an in-
vehicle transmitter and receiver or your own
mobile end device (e.g. smartphone). Online
functions can be used via this wireless connec-
tion. These include online services and applica-
tions/apps provided by the manufacturer or
other providers.
Manufacturer's own services
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 the provision of online
services. Data are exchanged via a secure con-
nection (e.g. using the IT system specially pro-
vided for this purpose by the manufacturer).
Collecting, 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 (some of which are subject to
charge). In many cases, this also applies to the
vehicle's entire data connection. However, this
does not apply in particular to legally prescribed
functions and services such as the "eCall" emer-
gency 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
