I thought this was an interesting read. I don't currently use OnStar but apparently their new terms and conditions include selling your car's location and data collected to third parties and affiliates. And if OnStar is bought by another company, your information transfers too.

Are you surprised?

Thanks for posting this – my parents just bought a vehicle with Onstar, so I sent it on to them.

Thanks for sharing this! I don't think they will actually do that, but they probably put it in there just as a precaution in the event that they do so in the future.

I don't have or use On Star so I guess that makes me safe.
