Online service
Wireless network connection
If your vehicle is equipped with a wireless
network connection, data can be ex-
changed between the vehicle and other
equipment. The wireless network connec-
tion can be enabled through the transmis-
sion and reception unit of the vehicle or by
connecting a mobile terminal equipment,
such as a smart phone. Through wireless
network connection, you can use online
functions, including online services and
applications provided by manufacturers or
other service providers.
Services provided by the manufacturer
Regarding online services of the manufac-
turer, the individual functions are de-
scribed by the manufacturer in a suitable
place, such as the User Manual or website
of the manufacturer, along with the rele-
vant data protection information. Personal
data can be used to provide online serv-
ices. Data is exchanged via a secure con-
nection, such as the manufacturer's
designated IT systems. Collecting, proc-
essing and using personal data beyond the
provision of services are permitted only on
the basis of a statutory permit or declara-
tion of consent.
Services from third parties
If online services are available from third
parties, these services are the responsibil-
ity of the service providers and subject to
that provider's data protection policies
and terms of use. The manufacturer has no
influence over the data exchanged in such
cases.
For this reason, ask the service provider
for information about the type, extent and
purpose of the collection and use of per-
sonal data when services are provided by
third parties.
