Abstract
A system includes a user computing device with an application for removal of privacy data. The application obtains vehicle information associated with a target vehicle that has a target in-vehicle device from which privacy information of a user is to be removed. Using the vehicle information, the application determines vehicle parameters associated with the target vehicle. The application obtains a privacy information removal file comprising an instruction set associated with removing privacy data from candidate in-vehicle devices, and presents the instruction set. A user experience feedback associated with the candidate in-vehicle devices is obtained and stored in a database.
Claims15
A method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a computing device, vehicle information associated with a target vehicle comprising one or more in-vehicle devices which store privacy information;
- presenting, by the computing device, an instruction set for removing privacy information from a target in-vehicle device of the one or more in-vehicle devices, wherein the instruction set is associated with the vehicle information;
- obtaining, by the computing device, a user experience feedback associated with the target in-vehicle device;
- recording, by the computing device, the user experience feedback in a database;
- updating, by the computing device, the instruction set based on the user experience feedback;
- and
- removing, by the computing device using one or more of an Application Programming Interface (API), a webserver, or a mobile application, the privacy information from the target in-vehicle device based on the updated instruction set.
A system, comprising:
- a computing device;
- and
- at least one application executable by the computing device, wherein the at least one application, when executed by the computing device, is configured to cause the computing device to:
- obtain vehicle information associated with a target vehicle comprising one or more in-vehicle devices which store privacy information;
- present an instruction set for removing privacy information from a target in-vehicle device of the one or more in-vehicle devices, wherein the instruction set is associated with the vehicle information;
- obtain a user experience feedback associated with the target in-vehicle device;
- record the user experience feedback in a database;
- update the instruction set based on the user experience feedback;
- and
- remove, using one or more of an Application Programming Interface (API), a webserver, or a mobile application, the privacy information from the target in-vehicle device based on the updated instruction set.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a plurality of computer instructions executable by a computing device, the plurality of computer instructions being configured to cause the computing device to:
- obtain vehicle information associated with a target vehicle comprising one or more in-vehicle devices which store privacy information;
- present an instruction set for removing privacy information from a target in-vehicle device of the one or more in-vehicle devices, wherein the instruction set is associated with the vehicle information;
- obtain a user experience feedback associated with the target in-vehicle device;
- record the user experience feedback in a database;
- update the instruction set based on the user experience feedback;
- and
- remove, using one or more of an Application Programming Interface (API), a webserver, or a mobile application, the privacy information from the target in-vehicle device based on the updated instruction set.
