transmitted by vehicle sensors or control
units, which is necessary for the safe
functioning of your vehicle.
• In some cases, the data is used to
support driving (driver assistance
systems) or to enable a specific comfort
or infotainment function.

processed mainly include in-vehicle
data, remote-services-related data, and
other data, as further specified below.

there are control units, sensors or other
components installed in the vehicle
that record such data, for example to
record maintenance requirements, error
messages or other information.
• The in-vehicle data will only be stored
in the equipment in the vehicle but can
be read out via the legally required OBD
("On Board Diagnostics") interface, for
example by BYD authorised dealer or
service provider or other third parties.

vehicle maintenance, the information
can also be transmitted to BYD engineers
for quality assurance, product defect
reports or customer claim verification.
