life; to offer you new or additional products or
services; and as otherwise may be required by
law. Such data may be shared with NISSAN’s
parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or as-
signees; authorized NISSAN certified LEAF deal-
ers; NISSAN’s marketing partners; your fleet
company, if your vehicle is a fleet vehicle; your
rental company, if your vehicle is a rental vehicle;
and third party service providers such as cellular,
information systems and data management pro-
viders.
State and provincial laws allow access and use of
data recorded by vehicle devices with the con-
sent of the vehicle owner or pursuant to subscrip-
tion agreement. While you are not required to
allow such access and use, if you do not so agree
NISSAN may be unable under applicable law to
activate the vehicle telematics system in your
vehicle, and certain features of your vehicle which
are dependent on vehicle telematics will not op-
erate as intended or designed. These may in-
clude features such as automatic charging sta-
tion map updates, remote battery state of charge
check, charging complete notice, remote plug in
reminder, remote charging on, remote climate
control on, drive route planning, driving tips to
improve range, driving history, billing simulation,
ECO ranking, ECO forest, maintenance remind-ers, etc. Other features that may be developed
and offered by NISSAN in the future may also not
function without telematics data transmission.
NissanConnect
SMEV Services telematics ser-
vices are provided by NISSAN pursuant to a
subscription services agreement covering your
vehicle. This agreement is necessary for all own-
ers. This agreement, and an explanation of its
terms and conditions, can be found at the
NISSAN Owner’s Portal webpage. Further, the
operator of the vehicle must also touch [OK] on
the Navi screen to indicate assent each time he or
she starts the car. If you decide at any time that
you do not want your vehicle to transmit data to
NISSAN, you can deactivate the telematics ac-
count associated with this vehicle by canceling
the subscription services agreement by visiting
the NISSAN Owner’s Portal Webpage or calling
NISSAN at 1-877-NOGASEV
(1-877-664-2738) . The service can be reacti-
vated later upon request if you choose. Simply
visit the same website or call the number above.
Alternatively, you can turn off the transmission of
certain categories of data through the use of
settings found in the Navigation system under
Menu, NissanConnect
SMEV Services, Vehicle
Information Sharing with NISSAN. Note, turning
off “Vehicle Information Sharing with NISSAN” will only disable the automatic sharing of informa-
tion at vehicle start-up. Certain categories of data
may still be transmitted if vehicle telematics fea-
tures are accessed either in the vehicle or re-
motely.
Your agreement to the transmission and use of
data by NISSAN can be provided in various ways.
The vehicle is equipped with a “pop up” screen
on the vehicle navigation system that will ask for
your consent to this data transfer. A version of the
following message will appear: “Pursuant to sub-
scription agreement, your vehicle wirelessly
transmits recorded vehicle data to NISSAN for
various purposes, including NissanConnect
SM
EV Services services, product evaluation, re-
search and development. By pressing OK, you
consent to the transmission and use of your
vehicle data. Refer to the Owner’s Manual or
NISSAN Owner’s portal webpage for terms and
details.” If you press [OK], your vehicle will trans-
mit data as designed in connection with the ve-
hicle telematics system. If you press [Decline]
your vehicle will not transmit data. However, the
telematics features referenced above, and per-
haps others, will not be available to you. The
vehicle’s static navigation system will remain op-
erational, and you will be able to access your
radio and climate controls.
