For example, data we collect may include:

Information from or about you

We may also receive information about you from sources such as public databases, joint marketing partners, certified installers, affiliates and business partners, and social media platforms.

Cookies and other similar technologies: Cookies are pieces of information stored directly on the computer that you are using. When you visit our website, we may use essential cookies, to provide you with a service requested by you or when this is necessary for the functioning of our website. Additionally, we may also use analytics and marketing cookies in locations where the placement of such cookies does not require user consent.

When You Are a Tesla Customer

If you are a Tesla product or service owner, we may also collect other information from or about you, your Tesla vehicle, energy product, or from third parties. We may collect such information either through remote access or in person (for example, during a service appointment). Depending on which of our products and services you request or use, not all of these types of information may be applicable to you.

Tesla Account: Customers who purchase certain Tesla products may also create a Tesla Account, which is hosted on our website. You can access your Tesla Account to update the information from or about you in that account at any time. The information contained in your account includes:

• The status of your order
• Your customer registration information
• Warranty and other documentation for your Tesla products
• Supercharger history
• Payment method information
• Other general information about your Tesla products (for example, vehicle identification number or other product serial numbers, service plan information, or connectivity package), insurance forms, driver’s licenses, financing agreements, and similar information.

Information from or about you

Information from or about your Tesla vehicle

Information from or about your Tesla energy products

There are four categories of data generated by your Tesla vehicle: Vehicle Data, Diagnostic Data, Infotainment System Data, and Autopilot Data.

1. Vehicle Data

   In order to support your vehicle’s continuous performance, predictive maintenance, and improved functionality and experience, your Tesla collects and processes vehicle data related to the usage, operation, and condition of your vehicle. This information is used to triage and fix potential issues, and continuously improve your vehicle and services to you. To protect your privacy, by default, this vehicle data is either in a form that is not associated with your account or VIN, is stored in an encrypted format that Tesla cannot decrypt, or remains inaccessible unless a specific event is triggered:

   • If your vehicle may require, or you otherwise request service or repair
   • If there is an occurrence of a safety event (such as vehicle collision, airbag deployment or emergency braking event)
   • If your vehicle requires safety services such as emergency response or Roadside Assistance
   • If your vehicle experiences a hardware or software issue which may be inspected and addressed through a future software update or other resolution
   • If you provide your consent, or another legal basis is applicable

   
   We clearly define the vehicle data which we collect and don’t collect. Tesla does not link your location with your account or identity, or keep a history of where you’ve been. Examples of the vehicle data collected include: speed information, odometer readings, vehicle component signals, internet connectivity status, battery use management information, battery charging history, electrical system functions, software version information, infotainment system data, safety-related data and camera images (including information regarding the vehicle’s SRS systems, braking and acceleration, security, and e-brake); short video clips of accidents; information regarding Autopilot engagements, Summon, Sentry and other features, and other data to assist in identifying issues and analyzing the performance of the vehicle.

   Location Services: Your Tesla vehicle uses location to power features such as in-vehicle maps, navigation, or mobile app location services. Location Services may use a combination of GPS, Bluetooth, IP address, and Wi-Fi and mobile towers to figure out where you are. To protect your privacy, location data is either processed directly without leaving your vehicle, is in a form that does not personally identify you, or remains inaccessible to Tesla. For safety purposes, your vehicle's location may be used when you experience a safety event (such as a collision, an airbag deployment, or automatic emergency braking event) to aid response efforts. This means that unless captured as a result of a safety event— Tesla does not link your location to your identity or know where you’ve been. You may also choose to enable or disable the collection of ‘Road Segment Data Analytics’ at any time within your vehicle’s touch screen by navigating to Software > Data Sharing. Please note, some advanced features such as real-time traffic and intelligent routing rely on such data. 

   Safety analysis data: In order to help improve our products and services, we may collect and store other vehicle data that might contain information that identifies you or your vehicle’s VIN, including: data about accidents or near accident-like circumstances involving your Tesla vehicle (for example, Airbag deployment or automatic emergency braking event); data about remote services (for example, remote lock/unlock, start/stop charge, and honk-the-horn commands); a data report to confirm that your vehicle is online together with information about the current software version and certain telematics data; data about any issues that could materially impair operation of your vehicle; data about any safety-critical issues; and data about each software and firmware update.

   Advanced features: Certain features such as real-time traffic, navigation, intelligent routing, Autopilot, and Summon, may require road segment data to function as intended. To protect your privacy, you may enable or disable the collection of this data at any time (Software > Data Sharing). If enabled, we may share this data in a way that does not identify your account or VIN with partners in order to help us improve and provide the service to you. This sharing may occur even if you are not actively using a feature that needs this information.

   Charging information: We may collect information regarding the charge rate and charging stations used by you (including use of superchargers, as well as home or commercial outlets) in order to, for example, analyze which charging stations are being utilized, how long and efficient battery charges are, where additional charging stations are needed, and in some jurisdictions, participate in certain government incentive or credit programs.

   Service history: In order to facilitate the service and repair of your vehicle, we may collect and process data about the service history from Tesla service centers or affiliated third-party approved body shops. This includes information such as name, VIN, repair history, parts details, estimate and costs, outstanding recalls, bills due, customer complaints, and any other information related to the vehicle’s service history.

   Opting out of vehicle data: Connectivity and performance is a core part of all Tesla vehicles and why some customers choose Tesla, allowing for advanced features and an enhanced driving experience. By default, Tesla provides this seamless experience while protecting your privacy. However, if you no longer wish for us to collect vehicle data or any other data from your Tesla vehicle, please contact us to deactivate connectivity. Please note, certain advanced features such as over-the-air updates, remote services, and interactivity with mobile applications and in-car features such as location search, Internet radio, voice commands, and web browser functionality rely on such connectivity. If you choose to opt out of vehicle data collection (with the exception of in-car Data Sharing preferences), we will not be able to know or notify you of issues applicable to your vehicle in real time. This may result in your vehicle suffering from reduced functionality, serious damage, or inoperability. 

2. Diagnostic Data

   Tesla uses diagnostic logs to keep our products and services up to date, troubleshoot or debug problems, and make continuous improvements. We aim to collect the minimum level of diagnostic data necessary to help keep your vehicle or energy product reliable, secure, and operating normally. Diagnostics may include details about vehicle configuration, firmware, energy use, electronic systems state, and other system-to-system data used to identify bugs and conduct technical evaluations. On specific events, we use diagnostic logs as basic error information to help determine whether the problems experienced can be addressed by an immediate or future software release.

3. Infotainment System Data

   When using your vehicle’s touchscreen, Tesla may collect certain usage analytics that are either stored on the vehicle itself, or if shared with us, is not associated with your account or VIN by default. Usage analytics may include, for example, aggregated counts of the features or apps used, playback and browsing metadata (such as radio listening time and channel), and approximate location for local radio options.

   To protect your privacy, your in-vehicle browser history and sign-in credentials are not shared with Tesla. For certain infotainment apps that require sign-in, if you do not have your own account, Tesla offers the option to use the app with a Tesla provisioned account instead. If you choose to use a Tesla provisioned account, then your infotainment system data for that specific app may be associated with your account or VIN. Additionally, if you experience performance issues with your infotainment and require support, Tesla may retrieve certain infotainment system data to fulfill your request, effectively troubleshoot or debug the issue, and improve our products and services.

   Voice commands: Each Tesla is equipped with the ability for you to use your voice to speak commands to the vehicle. To support ongoing quality improvements, Tesla captures and processes the transcription of the command (such as “set the temperature…”). To protect your privacy, audio voice recordings are not captured, and the transcription of the command is not associated with your account or VIN. In addition, Tesla does not collect any information when using voice-to-text, as such your text messages are never sent to Tesla.

   Tesla mobile app: The Tesla app puts owners in direct communication with their vehicles. With the app, you have the capability to do things like check your vehicle's charging progress in real time, start/stop charging, heat/cool the cabin before driving, lock/unlock the vehicle from afar, share destinations and calendar information, or view the vehicle’s current location. In order to detect and proactively fix issues related to the Tesla app’s functionality, address any customer complaints, and to prevent unauthorized access or misuse, certain general usage information associated with your account or VIN may be shared with us. For example, if you use the Tesla app to change the vehicle’s cabin temperature, we may collect that this command was successful or unsuccessful, without further details, such as the change in degrees. The Tesla app also allows you to upload images, for example, when submitting your service or repair request, for customer support assistance, product installations, to update your Tesla profile picture, and more.

4. Autopilot Data

   Tesla vehicles make use of a camera suite that provides advanced features such as Autopilot, Smart Summon, and Autopark. Camera functionality has been designed from the ground up to protect your privacy. Tesla does not capture continuous recordings or have live-view functionality. By default, advanced autonomous features that rely on the external cameras are processed without ever leaving your vehicle. There are two types of camera recordings that are eligible to be transmitted from your vehicle to Tesla: Safety Event and Fleet Learning camera recordings.

   1. Safety Event camera recordings are automatically captured only if a serious safety event occurs such as a vehicle collision or airbag deployment. These short clips are up to 30 seconds and associated with your VIN in order to aid in providing emergency services, vehicle evaluation, and Roadside Assistance (and such recordings may include timestamp and location metadata).
   2. Fleet Learning camera recordings use the vehicle’s external cameras to learn how to recognize things like lane lines, street signs and traffic light positions. The more fleet learning of road conditions we are able to do, the better your Tesla’s self-driving ability will become. We want to be very clear that in order for Fleet Learning camera recordings to be shared with Tesla, your consent for Data Sharing is required and can be controlled through the vehicle’s touchscreen at any time by navigating to Software > Data Sharing. Even if you choose to opt-in, the camera recordings are limited to 30 seconds and remain anonymous, ensuring it’s not linked to you or your vehicle.

   Dashcam: Dashcam is a feature available to customers, provided a properly configured USB drive is used. All recorded video is stored locally on the USB drive and not transmitted to Tesla. Before enabling this feature, please remember to consult your country’s local laws related to dashcam usage in order to comply with all regulations and property restrictions.

   Sentry Mode: This feature uses the vehicles sensors and external cameras to detect and notify you when there is suspicious activity or a significant threat to your vehicle while parked. If a threat is detected, such as someone leaning on the car, Sentry Mode will flicker the headlights, display a message on the touchscreen indicating that the cameras are recording, and save footage of the event to your USB drive (if installed). Sentry Mode footage is not transmitted to Tesla. For significant threats, such as a window break-in, the vehicle will also send an alert to the mobile app paired with the car, activate the security alarm, and generate a loud unexpected sound from the audio system. Sentry Mode footage is saved to onboard memory and can be viewed directly from the vehicle’s touchscreen. Sentry Mode can also operate in a similar manner without a USB drive installed, with the ability to send you an alert to your phone if a threat is detected — however, footage of the event would not be available.

   If you have enabled Sentry Mode Live Camera Access, this allows you to remotely view your car's surroundings while in park, and also honk, flash headlights, and talk through the car’s speaker. Audio from the car’s surroundings is not recorded. To enable or disable, tap Controls > Safety & Security. When in use, the car's headlights will pulse and the touchscreen will show Sentry Mode is activated. Live Camera is end-to-end encrypted and cannot be accessed by Tesla.

   Please note it is your sole responsibility to consult and comply with all local regulations and property restrictions regarding the use of cameras.

   Cabin Camera: Model 3 and Model Y vehicles with a Full Self-Driving Computer, and 2021 or newer Model S and Model X vehicles are equipped with a Cabin Camera that is located above the rear-view mirror and turned off by default. If you enable the Cabin Camera by opting into Data Sharing of ‘Cabin Camera Analytics’, a short video clip will be captured and transmitted to Tesla following a safety event (a vehicle collision or emergency braking event). This short video clip is intended to capture the few seconds before the incident and does not include any footage from the safety event itself. No videos are transmitted absent a safety event, period. These clips will be used to develop and improve safety features and software enhancements, such as collision avoidance updates. To protect your privacy, Cabin Camera recordings are anonymous and not linked to your account or VIN. You may also enable or disable the collection of this data at any time (Software > Data Sharing).
