As part of the commitments under the Privacy Principles, Honda has established this webpage so consumers can access the American Honda Vehicle Data Privacy Notice, which explains how Honda collects, maintains, uses, and discloses Covered Information as part of vehicle technologies and services, and all other relevant documents related to Honda programs, technologies, and services whereby Covered Information may be collected, used, disclosed, or held by Honda. The applicable documents are linked below:
Examples of Connected Vehicle Technologies and Services available on some vehicles include, but are not limited to, HondaLink, AcuraLink, incident response and roadside assistance services accessed directly through the vehicle, traffic and weather services, navigation services, vehicle diagnostic tools, vehicle location/locator services, vehicle geo-fencing services, and programs on the vehicle or your smart device that analyze your use of the vehicle or its systems.
We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We may use and disclose Covered Information and any other information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties if, in our discretion, we believe it is necessary or appropriate to respond to legal requests (including court orders, investigative demands, warrants and subpoenas), to protect the safety, property, or rights of ourselves, consumers, or any other third party, to prevent or stop any illegal, unethical, or legally actionable activity, or to comply with law.
We may use and disclose Covered Information with businesses controlling, controlled by, or under common control with us for purposes permitted under this Vehicle Privacy Notice and our Privacy Notice. If we are merged, acquired or sold, or in the event of a transfer of some or all of our assets, we may disclose or transfer Covered Information in connection with such transaction.
The Honda Prologue and Acura ZDX models include technologies operated and managed by General Motors. We may collect Covered Information collected through those technologies from General Motors for the purposes set out in this Vehicle Privacy Notice. In addition, General Motors will independently use this Covered Information for the purposes set out in the OnStar Privacy Statement
Information that has been anonymized, aggregated, or deidentified such that it is no longer reasonably capable of being associated with any person or vehicle does not qualify as Covered Information; therefore, we may use or disclose it without limitation or restriction, subject to applicable law. We will not knowingly attempt to reidentify previously anonymized, aggregated, or deidentified information.
We will not use Precise Geolocation Information for our own marketing purposes. We may disclose Precise Geolocation Information to companies that provide services integrated with our products, such as satellite radio providers and connected vehicle data services platforms. These disclosures might be considered a sale under certain privacy laws.
We provide our service providers the Covered Information that we believe is reasonably necessary for them to perform their services for us or on our behalf, including for them to improve their services provided to us.
We may disclose Covered Information to Honda affiliates such as American Honda Finance Corporation. Although we do not directly monetize the disclosed Covered Information, this disclosure may qualify as a sale under certain privacy laws.
In limited instances, we disclose Covered Information, specifically Commercial Information and Non-Precise Geolocation Information, to Third Parties with whom we have a relationship to facilitate research and development of products, services, infrastructure, and other technologies for ourselves or others.
You must promptly contact us when you have new contact information or have sold or transferred your vehicle. If you do not notify us of a change in contact information or the sale or transfer of your vehicle, we may continue to send reports or other information about the vehicle to the address currently on file with us and/or about your account to the vehicle (and new owner). We are not responsible for any damages you may suffer as a result of your failure to promptly inform us of changes in your contact information or vehicle ownership
We strive to protect Covered Information by using commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards and requiring our service providers to do the same. Even with these safeguards, no data transmission or storage can be guaranteed 100% secure. As a result, you provide or authorize collection of Covered Information by us or our service providers at your own risk.
We may store or process Covered Information in the United States and in foreign countries. In some countries, applicable laws may allow the government to more easily demand access to your Covered Information.
The vehicle may generate and store as On-Board Data same categories of information that are described as Covered Information. Like with Covered Information, you may make certain choices regarding the types of On-Board Data generated or collected by the vehicle:
We may modify this Vehicle Privacy Notice at any time, without notice or obligation to you. We will post the modified Vehicle Privacy Notice on our website (www.honda.com) and you should regularly review this Vehicle Privacy Notice for changes. If you are a current owner/lessee and a registered user of Connected Vehicle Technologies and Services, and the modifications to the Vehicle Privacy Notice materially expand our collection, maintenance, use, or disclosure of your Covered Information, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you such as by a notice on our website, through the Connected Vehicle Technologies and Services, and/or by email and, if the modifications materially expand our use or disclosure of your Covered Information, obtain your consent prior to the effective date of the modified Vehicle Privacy Notice.
You may choose not to receive marketing communications from Honda by calling us at 1-888-528-7876. Please note that you still will receive communications regarding recalls and service campaigns, the status of any of the Connected Vehicle Technologies and Services, your account, and any other service-related communications and updates.
If you have any questions regarding this Vehicle Privacy Notice, would like to update certain of your information on file with us, or want to learn more about how to exercise your choices with regard to Covered Information and On-Board Data, please call us at 1-888-528-7876.
Honda reserves the right to terminate Honda Assist Services at any time or for any reason, and in the future may not be able to provide services due to changes in or obsolescence of technology integral to the service or changes in governmental regulation.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
