Data storage
Data processing in the vehicle
Electronic control units
Electronic control units are tted in your vehicle.
Control units process data they receive, generate
themselves or exchange with each other, forexam-
ple from vehicle sensors. Some control units are
required for the safe operation of your vehicle. For
example, some assist you when driving, suchas
driver assistance systems, while others enable
convenience or infotainment functions.
The following section provides general information
about data processing in the vehicle. Additional
information regarding which vehicle data is collec-
ted, saved and transmitted to third parties and for
what purpose can be found in the information
directly related to the relevant functional charac-
teristics in the respective Owner's Manual. This
information is available online and digitally,
depending on the vehicle's equipment.
Personal data
A unique vehicle identication number identies
every vehicle. Depending on the country, this
vehicle identication number can also be used to
determine the identity of the vehicle keeper,
the authorities. There are also other ways
of tracing data collected from the vehicle back to
the keeper or driver, suchas the license plate
number.
The data generated or processed by control units
may therefore be attributable to a person or, in
certain circumstance, become attributable to a
person. Depending on which vehicle data are
available, it may be possible to make inferences
about, forexample, your driving behaviour, loca-
tion, route or use patterns.
Legal requirements regarding the disclosure of
data
If legally required to do so, manufacturers are
generally obliged to provide the authorities with
data stored by the manufacturer upon request
and to the extent required. Forexample, this may
be the case during the investigation of a criminal
oence.
