You can manage your consent to data sharing with Volvo here.
Before using the internet
The terms of use must be accepted once per car in order to use the internet.
Car location sharing
Give your consent for the car to be able to share its location. This is necessary if you want to use certain apps and
functions. For example, location sharing is required for remote vehicle services via Volvo Assistance and the mobile
app for the car, such as Find my car and the Trips app.[2]

Data is collected to provide better car, safety and app functions.
The Trips app can then collect data such as the car's position, speed, mileage and power consumption.
1.7. Handling of recorded and collected data
Certain information about the car's status and operation is recorded and collected for quality and safety
reasons. This can provide an understanding of the circumstances around traffic accidents involving the car
and other usage scenarios.
Event Data Recorder (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Recorder. Its primary purpose is to register and record data related to traffic acci-
dents or collision-like situations, such as times when the airbag deploys or the vehicle strikes an obstacle in the road. The data
is recorded in order to increase understanding of how vehicle systems work in these types of situations. The EDR is designed
to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short time, usually 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this car is designed to record data related to the following in the event of traffic accidents or collision-like situations:
How the various systems in the car worked.
Whether the driver and passenger seatbelts were fastened or tensioned.
The driver's use of the accelerator or brake pedal.
The travel speed of the car.
This creates a better understanding about the circumstances in which traffic accidents, injuries and damage occur. The EDR
only records data when a non-trivial collision situation occurs. The EDR does not record any data during normal driving condi-
tions. Similarly, the system never registers who is driving the vehicle, or the geographic location of the accident or collision-like
situation. However, other parties, such as the police, could use the recorded data in combination with the type of personally
identifiable information routinely collected after a traffic accident. Special equipment and access to either the car or the EDR is
required to be able to interpret the registered data.
