Online services
Wireless network connection
If your vehicle has a wireless network connec‐
tion, it enables data to be exchanged between
your vehicle and additional systems. The wire‐
less network connection is made possible by the
vehicle's own transmitter and receiver or by a
mobile end device that you have brought into the
vehicle, for example, a smartphone. Online func‐
tions can be used via the wireless network con‐
nection. This includes online services and appli‐
cations/apps provided to you by the manufac‐
turer or by other providers.
Manufacturer's services
Regarding the manufacturer's online services,
the individual functions are described by the
manufacturer in a suitable place, for example, in
the Operator's Manual or on the manufacturer's
website, where the relevant data protection
information is also given. Personal data may be
used for the provision of online services. Data
are exchanged via a secure connection, such as
the manufacturer's designated IT systems. Any
personal data which are collected, processed
and used, other than for the provision of serv‐
ices, is done so exclusively on the basis of legal
permission. This is the case, for example, for a
legally prescribed emergency call system, a con‐
tractual agreement or when consent has been
given.
You can have services and functions, some of
which are subject to a fee, activated or deactiva‐
ted. This excludes legally prescribed functions
and services, such as an emergency call system.
Third party services
If you use online services from other providers
(third parties), these services are the responsi‐
bility of the provider in question and subject to
that provider's data protection conditions and
terms of use. As a general rule, the manufac‐
turer has no influence on the content
exchanged.
For this reason, when services are provided by
third parties, please ask the service provider in
question for information about the type, extent
and purpose of the collection and use of per‐
sonal data.
Data protection rights
Depending on your country or the equipment
and range of functions of your vehicle as well as
the services you use and the services on offer,
you are entitled to different data protection
rights. Further information on data protection
and your data protection rights can either be
found on the manufacturer's website or you will
receive this information as part of the various
services and service offers. There you will also
find the contact information for the manufac‐
turer and its data protection officers.
At a workshop, for example, with the support of
a specialist and possibly for a fee, you can have
data read out which is stored only locally in the
vehicle.
MBUX multimedia system/Mercedes me
connect
If the vehicle is equipped with the MBUX multi‐
media system or Mercedes me connect, addi‐
tional data about the vehicle's operation, the use
of the vehicle in certain situations, and the loca‐
tion of the vehicle may be compiled by the
