Toyota Canada Privacy Policy, probably the same as other vehicles:
"TCI will not disclose any of your personal information to any other persons, except (i) with your prior consent; (ii) in connection with a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of one of TCI’s businesses; or (iii) as may be required or permitted by law.
...
TCI collects and uses this data to deliver the following CVT Services:
...
- Automatic Collision Notification
- Emergency and Roadside Assistance
- Stolen Vehicle Locator
- Locating Missing Persons
- Destination Assist
- Other services related to or offered through the System
Privacy Policy - Toyota Canada and Toyota Credit Canada
- Location Data
- Your Vehicle may send an electronic signal with your latitude and longitude at a particular point in time (“Location Data”) to our Response Center under certain specific circumstances. We record and transmit your Location Data when you contact us for emergencies, roadside assistance, stolen or missing vehicle and destination services.
- Your GPS Navigation is equipped with a traffic feature that automatically collects and transmits, through GPS technology, your Location Data, travel direction and speed to support HD traffic and weather information available in your Vehicle. It is not tied to your VIN or personal information."
Excellent find! Consumers are always advised to read the fine print in purchase or financing contracts, seems RL didn’t do so.
