How is the telematics data generated?

A telematics-compatible BMW vehicle sends specific telematics data to BMW within a valid BMW ConnectedDrive account, subject to service use and availability. This data will be stored on a BMW server. BMW CarData offers BMW customers the option of seeing their currently stored data at any time. Third parties in turn can access specific telematics data with the customer's permission in order to develop and offer personalized services that previously were not available - provided that the customer has explicitly released this data for this third party. So the customer alone decides to whom to entrust their data. If you deactivate the mobile network connection for your vehicle, your subscribed services will no longer be available. Additionally, BMW Assist eCall will no longer be available (i.e., both Manual Emergency Call and Automatic Collision Notification).
