Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a data interchange between a control device of a motor vehicle and an external device. The motor vehicle has multiple vehicle functions each having at least one associated subservice. Based on the subservice, the respective vehicle function is performed and the data interchange with the external device takes place independently of the activity of the vehicle function. If the control device receives a deactivation signal for one of the vehicle functions, it deactivates this at least one vehicle function and checks whether one of the subservices is associated with at least one other vehicle function that is currently activated. If a subservice is not associated with a currently activated vehicle function, this subservice is deactivated, as a result of which the data interchange between the control device and the external device is terminated by this subservice.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for operating a transmitting device of a motor vehicle, in which method the transmitting device is operated in a private mode or in a transmitting mode. In the transmitting mode, the transmitting device transmits vehicle data to a computing device external to the vehicle. In the private mode, transmission of the vehicle data is stopped. A switchover from the transmitting mode into the private mode occurs as soon as a successful authentication of a specified user action has been captured.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for operating a communication device of a motor vehicle. A sensor device captures an identification feature, on the basis of which a user of a user profile stored in a motor-vehicle-external data server apparatus is identifiable, for example a feature of a mobile terminal of the user or of the user, for example a fingerprint. On the basis of the captured identification feature, an identification device of the motor vehicle establishes an identity of the user. Depending on the established identity, the identification device establishes an access code for the user profile of the user, wherein the at least one access code is stored in a database, and the established access code is used to enable the ascertained user profile for the communication apparatus.
