If your vehicle is accordingly equipped, you can
connect your smartphone or another mobile end
device to the vehicle. You can control them via
the control elements integrated in your vehicle.
Images and audio from the smartphone can be
output via the multimedia system. Certain infor‐
mation is simultaneously transferred to your
smartphone.
Depending on the respective integration type,
this includes, for example:
general vehicle data

position data

This enables the use of selected smartphone
apps, e.g. navigation or music playback. There is
no further interaction between the smartphone
and the vehicle; in particular, vehicle data is not
directly accessible. Which type of further data
processing occurs is determined by the provider
of the specific app used. Which settings you can
make, if any, depends on the specific app and
the operating system of your smartphone.
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 enabled via the vehi‐
cle's transmitter and receiver unit or via connec‐
ted mobile end devices (e.g. smartphones).
Online functions can be used via the wireless
network connection. This includes online serv‐
ices and applications/apps provided by the man‐
ufacturer or other providers.
Manufacturer's services
Regarding online services of the manufacturer,
the individual functions are described by the
manufacturer in a suitable place (e.g. Operator's
Manual, website of the manufacturer) along with
the relevant data protection information. Per‐
sonal data may be used for the provision of
online services. Data is exchanged via a secure
connection, e.g. the manufacturer's designated
IT systems. Personal data is collected, pro‐
cessed and used via the provision of services
exclusively on the basis of legal permissions or
with prior consent.
The services and functions (sometimes subject
to a fee) can usually be activated or deactivated.
In some cases, this also applies to the entire
vehicle's data connection. This excludes, in par‐
ticular, legally prescribed functions and services.
Third party services
If it is possible to use online services from other
providers, these services are subject to the data
protection and terms of use of the responsible
provider. The manufacturer has no influence on
the content exchanged.
Please inquire, therefore, about the type, scope
and purpose of the collection and use of per‐
sonal data as part of third party services from
their respective provider.
COMAND/mbrace
If the vehicle is equipped with COMAND or
mbrace, additional data about the vehicle's oper‐
ation, the use of the vehicle in certain situations,
