Collection and Processing of Data
in the Vehicle
In-vehicle data processing
Electronic control units are installed in
your vehicle. These control units
process data they, for example, receive
from vehicle sensors, generate
themselves or exchange with each
other. Some control units are required
for the safe operation of your vehicle,
others provide you with support while
driving (driver assistance systems) or
enable comfort or infotainment
functions.
General information on in-vehicle data
processing is provided below. Further
information regarding which specific
data is collected and stored in your
vehicle and transmitted to third
parties, and for what purpose, can be
found under the heading ‘data
protection’ in the respective operating
instructions where direct links are
made to the affected functional
specifications. These operating
instructions are also available online
and, depending on the vehicle
configurations, in digital format on the
vehicle.
Personal references
Every vehicle is identified by means of
a unique vehicle identification number.
This vehicle identification number is
traceable to the current and former
owners of the vehicle. Data collected
from the vehicle also can be traced
back to the owner or driver of the
vehicle by other means, e.g., the
number plate.
The data generated or processed by
the control units therefore may be
personal data or may, under certain
circumstances, be personally
identifiable data. Depending on what
vehicle data is available, it may be
possible to draw conclusions with
regard to, for example, your driving
behaviour, your location or your route,
or consumption patterns.
Your rights with regard to data
protection
Under current data protection law, you
have certain rights with regard to
companies which process your
personal data.
Accordingly, you are entitled to request
the comprehensive disclosure of
information, free of charge, vis-a-vis
the manufacturer and third parties
(e.g., commissioned breakdown
services or workshops, providers of
online services on the vehicle),
provided that these have stored
personal data relating to you. You may
request information regarding what
data is stored about you, for what
purpose and the origination of that
data. Your right to information also
extends to the transfer of data to other
third parties.
For more information on your legal
rights relating to Mazda (for example,
your right to the deletion and
correction of data), please refer to the
applicable Data Protection Policy on
the country-specific Mazda website,
