What you should be mindful of
When buying an older vehicle with ŠKODA Connect
services, it is possible that the services are active and
the main user is the previous owner of the vehicle.
The previous owner may also be able to control the
vehicle functions and receive information about the
user and the vehicle.
As a contracting party with regard to the use of the
ŠKODA Connect services, you must ensure the pro-
tection of personal data and the right to privacy.
Inform the vehicle user and passengers that the vehi-
cle is transmitting user data and using localisation
services. Failure to do so may violate the rights of ve-
hicle users and passengers.
Therefore, we recommend removing the previous
main user. Then log in with your own user account.
When you register a new user, the previous user is
automatically overwritten.
