This is Ford Motor Company's privacy policy covering personal data collected through Ford websites, mobile apps such as FordPass, and Ford connected vehicles. The policy discloses that Ford collects and may share precise geolocation data, vehicle sensor and telematics data, driving behavior, and inferences drawn from this data with dealers, affiliates, advertising partners, and data brokers. California residents can opt out of the sale or sharing of their personal information and request deletion of their data through mechanisms described in the policy.
This document is Ford Motor Company's privacy policy governing the collection, use, and sharing of personal information obtained through ford.com, owner.ford.com, the FordPass app, Ford vehicles equipped with connected technology, and related Ford digital services. The policy states that Ford collects identifiers, contact information, vehicle data, geolocation data, driving behavior, financial information, inferences, and internet or other electronic network activity, and the terms authorize sharing this information with Ford affiliates, dealers, service providers, advertising and analytics partners, and data brokers. The policy discloses that Ford collects precise geolocation and vehicle sensor data from connected vehicles, which, combined with inferences drawn from usage patterns, represents a category of data collection that is operationally distinct from standard web-based privacy practices and warrants dedicated compliance review. The policy engages the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), the Driver's Privacy Protection Act (DPPA), and references state biometric privacy frameworks where applicable; Ford discloses a 'Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information' opt-out and a 'Limit the Use of My Sensitive Personal Information' mechanism available to California residents. Compliance teams should evaluate data retention schedules, the scope of sensitive data processing disclosures, and the adequacy of consent mechanisms for vehicle telematics data across non-California jurisdictions where analogous state privacy laws are emerging.
The agreement establishes that Ford collects precise geolocation, vehicle telematics, driving behavior, and inferences from connected vehicle systems, and authorizes sharing this data with dealers, Ford affiliates, advertising and analytics partners, and third-party data brokers. Under these terms, consumers who use connected Ford vehicles or the FordPass app are subject to ongoing collection of location and driving data that may be used for marketing, credit, and insurance-related inferences. You can opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information by using the 'Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information' link available on Ford's website or by submitting a request through Ford's designated privacy request portal.
