selves for individual cases. This could include
reading out data from the airbag control device
to shed light on the circumstances of an acci‐
dent, for example.
Mobile devices
Depending on the equipment, mobile devices
such as smartphones can be connected to the
vehicle and used to control vehicle functions, for
example BMW Connected, Apple CarPlay.
Sound and images from the mobile device may
be played back or displayed through the multi‐
media system in the vehicle, for example.
Selected information is transferred to the mobile
device at the same time. Depending on the type
of integration, this includes position data and
other general vehicle information, for example.
This optimises the way in which selected apps,
for example navigation or music playback, work.
How the data is processed further is determined
by the provider of the particular app being used.
Services
General
If the vehicle has a wireless network connection,
this enables data to be exchanged between the
vehicle and other systems, for example with
BMW ConnectedDrive.
Services from the vehicle
manufacturer
Where online services from the vehicle manufac‐
turer are concerned, the relevant functions are
described in the appropriate place, for example
the Owner's Handbook or manufacturer's web‐
site. The relevant legal information pertaining to
data protection is also provided.
Personal data may be used to provide online
services. Data is exchanged over a secure con‐
nection, for example with the data systems 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 always requires legal permission, a
contractual agreement or consent of the user.
BMW ConnectedDrive
BMW ConnectedDrive networks the vehicle with
a whole host of digital services. When used, only
the data saved in the vehicle that is required to
perform the agreed service is transferred online,
for example information on identifying and locat‐
ing the vehicle. The basis is a contractual agree‐
ment with the user.
In individual cases, the transfer of data is trig‐
gered as a result of predefined events, such as
an intelligent emergency call. The wireless net‐
work connection is established via an in-vehicle
transmitter and receiver unit or via personal mo‐
bile devices brought into the vehicle, for example
smartphones. Data transfer can be deactivated
on request.
The wireless network connection enables online
functions to be used. These include online serv‐
ices and apps supplied by the vehicle manufac‐
turer or by other providers.
Services from other providers
When using online services from other providers,
these services are the responsibility of the rele‐
vant provider and subject to their data privacy
conditions and terms of use. The vehicle manu‐
facturer has no influence over the data that is ex‐
changed.
Information as to how 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 provider.
Personal decision
Every user decides for themselves whether they
wish to enter into a contract for a service such as
BMW ConnectedDrive. Information is provided in
writing regarding the scope and content of data
processing before the service is acquired and
forms part of the vehicle handover.
