Data protection has the highest priority for us. …

… Our customers decide for themselves which data we, as provider, have access to. Therefore, the use of this data is explicitly regulated in the contract between the customer and us.”

History

Our journey. Always moving forward.

Launch

Mercedes-Benz Connectivity Services GmbH emerges from a group project about commercial connectivity, vehicle data and telematics - and is eventually established as a 100% subsidiary.

Hello team

The first 8 employees start at Mercedes-Benz Connectivity Services GmbH. In the meantime, we have more than 60 staff.

Crossing borders
