Infotainment system
Legal provisions
During the use of SEAT CONNECT services,
information is transferred and processed on-
line through the vehicle. Such data can also
provide (at least indirectly) information
about the driver in question, for example,
driving behaviour and location. As a con-
tracting party in the SEAT CONNECT con-
tract with SEAT, S.A., you must ensure that
when your vehicle is used by other drivers
(for example, family or friends), data protec-
tion and personal rights are respected.
Therefore, you must inform drivers in ad-
vance that the vehicle transfers and receives
data online, and that you can access such
data.
Not taking into account this obligation to in-
form, can infringe certain rights of the occu-
pants.
Users can manage data sending and trans-
fers through the privacy mode at any time.

Follow-up services: ask all occupants
The follow-up services need geographical
and vehicle data to determine whether the
vehicle is being used within defined speed
ranges, where it has been parked or if it is be-
ing used in an established geographical area.
This information is displayed on the SEAT
CONNECT portal and in the SEAT CONNECT
app.
Therefore, before moving off, ask all the ve-
hicle occupants if they agree with the activa-
ted services. If they do not, deactivate the
service in question (if possible) or do not al-
low the occupants to use the vehicle.
GPS tracking: marking
If the vehicle has a factory-assembled con-
trol unit that transmits the its current geo-
graphical position and speed, the vehicle
usually has this GPS marking (e.g., on the
roof console). The absence of the marking
on the vehicle does not guarantee that the
control unit does not transmit the vehicle’s
current geographical position and speed.
Personal information
CUPRA protects your personal data and only
uses them, as long as the law allows it or you
have given your consent on the occasion of
a use. You will find detailed information on
data processing in relation to SEAT CON-
NECT services in the Privacy Policy, which
you can access in its corresponding current
version on the SEAT website.
Permanent transfer of the vehicle
If another person has left you the vehicle for
permanent use (for example, if you buy a
used vehicle), SEAT CONNECT may already
be activated and the previous user still has
the possibility of accessing the data regis-
tered through SEAT CONNECT and control
certain functions of your vehicle.
In the infotainment system you can check if
your vehicle is assigned to a person as the
main user. In this case, you can register your-
self as the main user of the vehicle and thus
automatically delete the previous main user.
Alternatively, through the infotainment sys-
tem you can directly and permanently delete
the previous user as the main user, as well as
put the vehicle in offline mode and thus limit
both the communication of your vehicle with
the SEAT, S.A. data server and the processing
of personal and vehicle data.
Deactivating SEAT CONNECT services
The following functions are available in the
infotainment system to deactivate and acti-
vate SEAT CONNECT services:
●
Central deactivation or activation

Individual deactivation or activation
You can rerun the corresponding services af-
ter cancelling their deactivation in the info-
tainment system.
