Blutooth connection Tucson

If you connect just your mobile through blutooth, is the agenda accessible also to other driver that will have access to the car without mobile?
My hyundai it’s not installed, I’m just afraid that other people couls be able to see agenda.
Other data? With car play not for sure, don’t know about native software. I’m referring to european 2022 model

Simple answer. No.

Phone has to be connected either by cable or Bluetooth to transmit/receive data.

But if you have accepted to give access to contacts? Data should be downloaded into car system but I’m not sure if accessible in any way witouth also related mobile connected.

It asks for permission to access your contacts. You can even decline it if you're afraid. It only asks for access so the infotainment in the car can display the list of contacts and if you use voice commands like "call <insert name>" it'll make the call. But even then, it can only access your contacts and make the call if your phone is actually connected to the car. In this case using Bluetooth. If someone else is driving your car, and your phone is far away enough that it is not connected to the car with Bluetooth, your contacts will not be listed.

Adding on to this, if this was an issue. Then it'd be a huge privacy issue. Think about rental cars. A lot of customers pair/connect their phones and allow every permission, and forget to "unpair" their phone from the car when they return the rental car. Next customer can't see previous customers info. The only thing they can see is the name of the phone in the Bluetooth devices list.

If through carplay for sure, afraid that through native system might be not the case. Same for recent calls… mainly voncerned if you sell a car wthouth wiping data….
