These data for convenience and infotainment
functions may be saved locally in the vehicle or
they may be located on a device which you have
connected to the vehicle, such as a smartphone,
USB ash drive or MP3 player. If you have entered
these data yourself, you can delete them at any
time.
This data is transmitted from the vehicle to third
parties only at your request. This applies, in par-
ticular, when you use online services in accord-
ance with the settings that you have selected.

Apple CarPlay Apple CarPlay ® ® ) )
If your vehicle is accordingly equipped, you can
connect your smartphone or another mobile end
device to the vehicle. You can then control them
by means of the control elements integrated in
the vehicle. Images and audio from the smart-
phone can be output via the multimedia system.
Certain information is simultaneously transferred
to your smartphone. Depending on the type and
integration, this includes position data, day/night
mode and other general vehicle statuses. For
more information please consult the Owner's
Manual of the vehicle/infotainment system.
This integration allows the use of selected smart-
phone apps, such as navigation or music player
apps. There is no further interaction between the
smartphone and the vehicle; in particular, vehicle
data is not directly accessible. The type of addi-
tional data processing is determined by the pro-
vider of the app being used. Which settings you
can make, if any, depends on the speci c app and
the operating system of your smartphone.

Manufactur Manuf acturer's ser er's services vices
Regarding the manufacturer's online services, the
individual functions are described by the manu-
facturer in a suitable place, for example, in the
Owner's Manual or on the manufacturer's web-
site, where the relevant data protection informa-
tion 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 per-
sonal data which are collected, processed and
used, other than for the provision of services, is
done so exclusively on the basis of legal permis-
sion. This is the case, for example, for a legally
prescribed emergency call system, a contractual
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.
