A connected car has a built-in system that connects to other services or devices via a network allowing you to use wireless features, usually from a smartphone app. For your Ford vehicle, this is the FordPass app.

Your connected car collects driving data that, with your agreement, is used to build a personalised driving score to potentially decrease your insurance premium.

Eligible vehicles have the capability built in, so it won't cost you anything as you don't need any third-party software or hardware installed.

If you reject the data request, we can't view or analyse your driving data and you'll lose your Admiral Insure Live discount. If you accidentally select “No”, please call 03337 777384 and we'll reset the request for you.

Once you've agreed, download the FordPass App and a notification on your dashboard will ask for confirmation to turn data sharing on.

We'll collect data including your location and how you drive, for example mileage travelled, speed, acceleration. We collect other driving and vehicle use data; more information is in your Policy Book.

Your driving score is calculated on overall use of the vehicle. We don't know who's driving, meaning we can't exclude data when other people drive the vehicle.

Your named drivers impact the overall score and aren't scored individually.

We analyse the data to generate a driving score based on how safe you drive which is then used to help calculate your renewal price.

Data will be collected and may be used to help investigate a claim.

We only share information with companies who need the data to provide the services under the policy. Please check our Privacy Policy for more information.

We only share data with the police if we're requested by law, linked to a criminal case.

• Apple iPhone 5s or newer with Apple iOS 12.2 or newer.
• Android smartphone with Android OS 8.0 or newer.

If you wish to cancel your policy you should contact us to notify us.

Once you have done this, you should revoke permission for us to receive the data at the time your cover ceases. If you forget to do this, the data collection will automatically be cut within 10 days, but data may still be recorded during this 10-day period.

You will be charged the following fees:

• For cancellation within 14 days of the policy start date - £25
• After 14 days of the policy start date - £55

When your policy is cancelled, we'll stop data collection within ten days. You can also turn data sharing off manually within your vehicle. If you do this, we'll remove the Admiral Insure Live discount from your policy. Please check your agreement document for any cancellation charges.

You'll be covered under your connected car policy, from the policy start date, but you will need to consent to sharing data with us, within 15 days of the start date.

There are no mileage restrictions. You'll still be asked for an accurate annual mileage as with any motor insurance policy.

There is no curfew, but regular night-time driving will affect overall score.
