RE: [pmrm] FW: Nissan Fig Leaf? Blogger Raises Privacy Concern

["Michael Willett" <mwillett@nc.rr.com>]

Quoting:

 

Nissan’s 2011 Leaf navigation system owner’s manual states broadly that: “Such data may be shared with Nissan’s parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assignees; authorized Nissan-certified LEAF dealers; Nissan’s marketing partners; your fleet company, if your vehicle is a fleet vehicle; your rental company, if your vehicle is a rental vehicle; and third party service providers such as cellular, information systems and data management providers.

It goes on to say that: “State laws allow access and use of data recorded by vehicle devices with the consent of the vehicle owner or pursuant to subscription agreement.”

That is “opt IN” by subscription! The subscriber consents, unknowingly.
