ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Your data — including driving behavior, location history, and biometric identifiers — could end up in the hands of entirely different companies with different privacy practices if GM undergoes a corporate transaction.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

GM's privacy policy covers a wide range of sensitive data collected from connected vehicles and services, including precise location, driving behavior, and biometric identifiers, which are shared with a broad network of affiliates, dealers, and third-party partners including for marketing purposes. Consumers who use OnStar or connected vehicle features should be aware that detailed records of their movements and driving habits are generated and may be retained and shared beyond what many users would expect from a vehicle purchase. You can opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information and submit data deletion or access requests through GM's Consumer Privacy Request Form at gm.com/consumer-privacy.
