Data protection information

Finder

The "Finder" service allows you to determine Points of Interest near your location, along your route, or at your destination online using My Porsche, your My Porsche App (“App”) and your vehicle's mobile phone connection. You can also call up dynamic information about Points of Interest such as occupancy status, current ratings and prices, current opening times and other available information.

When you select the service, your PCM (Porsche Communication Management, the central control unit for audio, navigation and communication services) initially registers with our system using the vehicle identification number.

If you select the service via My Porsche or the App, you register with your Porsche ID.

To enable a connection to be established to your vehicle's PCM, a time-limited authentication key is exchanged between our systems and your vehicle's PCM.

We require this information in order to assign your vehicle to your user account and to allow us to check that you are entitled to use the service.

In order to determine the search results based on the requested search term and the location, destination and route information, after the connection has been established, the relevant search term, the current location of your vehicle and, where appropriate, your navigation destination and your route will be transferred by our system to the relevant service provider.

The transmitted data is used to generate information to enable online Points of Interest to be displayed.

The information is then assigned to your vehicle by our system and transferred to your vehicle's PCM.

If you use the App for the request, the location of your device will be used instead of your vehicle location and the search results will be transferred to the App.

Your data will be stored for the duration of the query for this purpose and will then be deleted.

In order to avoid the need to repeatedly retrieve for information in the event of identical requests from several users, your data will be stored centrally by a service provider for 30 days and used to classify corresponding requests and content.

We use service providers commissioned by Porsche to help us determine Points of Interest and the associated dynamic information.

In order to make recurring search terms available more quickly in a preselection, search terms entered in the PCM of your vehicle or in your App will be included in in-vehicle search statistics. These search statistics can be deleted by restoring factory settings or by reinstalling the App.

Activating private mode means that the online functionalities of the service are no longer available.

In order to permit voice input, an audio file is transmitted after a connection has been set up from the PCM of your vehicle directly to the corresponding service providers together with the selected language, where applicable the selected service and the current version information. Using the transmitted data, the service provider creates text files and semantically interprets these if applicable. The results are then transmitted back to the PCM of your vehicle. In the case of voice control of destination inputs, the search terms that have been converted into text and the vehicle position are exchanged with navigation and search service providers for determination of route and destination information.

The current position of your vehicle is transmitted in order to check the plausibility of voice input of destinations and thus improve the quality of voice input. To enable your request to be assigned, an authentication key is also exchanged with the servers of the service providers.

We use service providers to execute and provide the service.

In order to continuously improve voice conversion and semantic interpretation, the data transmitted to the service provider as well as the results determined by the service provider are stored for a period of 90 days and evaluated in anonymized form.
