Privacy Information
When a mobile phone is connected to
SYNC®, the system creates a profile within
your vehicle that is linked to that mobile
phone. This profile is created in order to
offer more mobile features and to operate
more efficiently. Among other things, this
profile may contain data about your mobile
phone book, text messages (read and
unread), and call history, including history
of calls when your mobile phone was not
connected to the system. In addition, if you
connect a media device, the system
creates and retains an index of supported
media content. The system also records a
short development log of approximately
10 minutes of all recent system activity.
The log profile and other system data may
be used to improve the system and help
diagnose any problems that may occur.
The mobile profile, media device index, and
development log will remain in the vehicle
unless you delete it and are generally
accessible only in the vehicle when the
mobile phone or media player is
connected. If you no longer plan to use the
system or the vehicle, we recommend you
to perform a Master Reset to erase all
stored information.
System data cannot be accessed without
special equipment and access to the
vehicle's SYNC® module. Ford Motor
Company will not access the system data
for any purpose other than as described
absent consent, a court order, or where
required by law enforcement, other
government authorities, or other third
parties acting with lawful authority. Other
parties may seek to access the information
independently of Ford Motor Company.
USING VOICE RECOGNITION
Your SYNC® system comes equipped with
an advanced voice recognition system. This
system helps you control many features

keep your hands on the wheel and focus
on what is in front of you.
