Terms of use and data sharing
The first time certain services and apps are
started, a pop-up window with the heading
Terms and conditions and Data sharing
may open.
The aim is to inform the user about Volvo's
terms of use and data sharing policy. By
accepting data sharing, the user accepts that
certain information will be sent from the vehi-
cle. This is required for certain services and
apps to work with full functionality.
The data sharing function for connected servi-
ces and apps is disabled by default
tain connected services and apps in the vehi-

Data sharing can be set from the center dis-
play's settings menu or when the services or
apps are started in the center display.

ces will be allowed to share data. Data sharing
for downloaded apps can also be disabled
