For further details on individual UVO services, please consult the respective service description in the UVO Terms of Use. The (personal) data described in this Section 4 below is collected directly from the car’s head unit and is processed in connection with the UVO services.
We will further analyse and improve the Services to develop new mobility and mobility related products and/or services, to secure our products and/or to improve our services. For these purposes, we automatically analyse the data based on statistical and mathematical models to identify potential for improvements.
The data described in this Section 4 below is required to provide the UVO services. Without the respective information, the UVO services cannot be performed.
We process your personal data for other purposes only if we are obligated to do so on the basis of legal requirements (for example, transfer to courts or criminal prosecution authorities), if you have consented to the respective processing or if the processing is otherwise lawful under applicable law. If processing for another purpose takes place we will provide you with additional information, if appropriate. We do not engage in automated decision-making including profiling in connection with the UVO services unless we have expressly notified you of such automated decision-making including profiling by other means.
4.1 Kia Live
Kia Live enables you to access the following functions:
• Traffic: Live traffic information to calculate routes and display traffic situation. Online Navigation enables the User to navigate to their desired destination based on the combination of real-time traffic data and historical traffic information.
• Live point of interest (POI): Information on nearby POI based on current position
• Weather: Local weather information
• Parking: On and Off Street parking based on current position, nearby destination, nearby scrolled mark, nearby city center
• EV POI (only for Electric Vehicles and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles): Information on nearby charging stations including availability status based on current position
• Dealer point of interest (POI): Kia nearby dealer location information based on nearby current position
• Camera/danger zone alerts (if legally permissible in your country): The system provides alerts in areas where accidents are particularly common and warns You about accident black spots or speed cameras
For this purpose the following categories of personal data are processed for the conclusion or the performance of the contract: (GPS) Location data, service requests and responses for server search (point of interest (POI) data), dealer POI data, fuel-related information, parking-related information, speed camera information, electric vehicle (EV) station information, weather information), traffic information, unit of distance (km, miles, meters), language settings, telecom carrier information, unique identifiers (e.g. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), Driver ID, Service ID), phone number, date and local time, protocol version, navigation device information (e.g. hardware version, software version), route information (e.g. start point, settings, goal point, estimated time).
In addition, the GPS data (location) and the Service ID will be collected and stored for up to 93 days in order to improve the Kia Live service, based on legitimate interests. More information on the balancing test is available upon request.
4.2 Online Voice Recognition
Online Voice Recognition enables you to use spoken commands to access and control Kia Live services and draft and send text messages via a connected mobile device. Upon the activation of UVO in your vehicle, Online Voice Recognition is activated as a default setting. When using Online Voice Recognition, your personal data will be processed in an online environment.
For this purpose the following categories of personal data are processed for the conclusion or the performance of the contract: Voice recording, GPS data (location), unique identifiers (e.g. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), Service ID).
The recorded voice samples are transferred together with the GPS data and the Service ID to our relevant service provider. Our service provider for the Online Voice Recognition is Cerence B.V., CBS Weg 11, 6412EX Heerlen, Netherlands (processor) ("Cerence") and its sub-processors, which may be located in countries outside the EU/EEA and may not provide for an adequate level of data protection. Cerence transforms the voice samples into text samples, semantically interpreting them (if necessary), and then sends the result back to the vehicle.
In addition, voice samples and GPS data will be collected and stored for up to 90 days in order to perform and improve the Online Voice Recognition service based on legitimate interests. More information on the balancing test is available upon request.
You can prevent the transfer of your personal data (i.e. voice samples) to Cerence by deactivating the Online Voice Recognition in the respective settings of your head unit. By deactivating the Online Voice Recognition the functionality of the voice recognition may be limited or disabled.

With regard to data transfers to such recipients outside of the EU/EEA we provide appropriate safeguards, in particular, by way of entering into data transfer agreements adopted by the European Commission (e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses (2010/87/EU and/or 2004/915/EC)) with the recipients or taking other measures to provide an adequate level of data protection. A copy of the respective measure we have taken is available via our data protection officer (see 3.2 above).
8.1 Your personal data is stored by Kia and/or our service providers, strictly to the extent necessary for the performance of our obligations and strictly for the time necessary to achieve the purposes for which the personal data is collected, in accordance with applicable data protection laws. When Kia no longer needs to process your personal data, we will erase it from our systems and/or records and/or take steps to properly anonymize it so that you can no longer be identified from it (unless we need to keep your information to comply with legal or regulatory obligations to which Kia is subject; e.g., personal data contained in contracts, communications, and business letters may be subject to statutory retention requirements, which may require retention of up to 10 years).
8.2 Where no legal or regulatory retention periods apply, as a rule, all personal data processed in connection with the provision of UVO is deleted or anonymized immediately after provision of the individual UVO services action has been completed with the following exceptions:

Upon reset of the account, you will be logged out of UVO and will have to perform a new sign-up procedure or log in with different credentials if you intend to use UVO.
You may choose to activate Offline Mode by setting the respective preference. If Offline Mode is turned on all UVO functions are disabled and no personal data, in particular no location data (GPS), is collected for UVO and an Offline Mode icon is displayed at the top of the head unit screen in the vehicle.

The termination shall become valid as soon as one party receives the notice of termination. In case of sale or transfer of possession of the vehicle to a third party, the User shall delete the data stored in the vehicle.

11.3. Any amendments and additions to the Terms of Use as well as notifications necessary for their execution require text form (including email, fax) to be effective. The text form requirement can only be overruled in text form.
11.4. We are entitled to assign our rights and duties under this agreement either in full or in part to another service provider by providing 6 weeks’ notice to the User. In this case, however, the User shall be entitled to terminate the agreement within one month after receipt of the written notification effective at the time of the intended assignment of the agreement to the company which is taking over the place of Kia in the agreement. We shall expressly inform the User of this right of termination in the written notification.
