Approval of terms and conditions and data collection

You will see messages about different terms and conditions and data collection[1] in the center display. Your agreement is necessary for certain apps and services to work properly.

The first time you use your vehicle, a guide opens in the center display to assist you in making various settings. In connection with the guide, you are prompted to consent to different types of terms and conditions and the collection of information. You can do this later in privacy settings as well.

You may also need to give your consent in other situations, such as when you:

  • Use an app or service for the first time.
  • Add a new profile.
  • Delete a profile.
  • Change the ownership of the vehicle.
  • Reset user data or do a factory reset.

If you decide not to accept the privacy settings, you may not experience full functionality from apps and services.

Manage privacy settings

  1. Press the vehicle symbol in the bottom bar and go to Settings.
  2. Go to Privacy.
  3. Select the privacy setting you want to change and follow the instructions in the center display.

    Sharing data with Volvo

    You can manage your consent to sharing data with Volvo in privacy settings.

    Vehicle location sharing

    You need to enable location sharing in your vehicle to use certain apps and functions. For example, location sharing is required to use remote vehicle services via Volvo Assistance and for apps such as Find my vehicle and the Trips app.[2] Maps features also rely on location sharing. If you disable location sharing via the privacy settings, location sharing is also disabled for any features or apps that use it.

    Note

    General Privacy Notice

    Depending on your market, Volvo Cars may collect and process different types of personal data for various purposes. You can find more information about how Volvo Cars processes your personal data in the Volvo Cars General Privacy Notice available on Volvo’s website. If there are any differences between the user manual and the privacy notice related to the processing of personal data, the privacy notice takes precedence.
