Level One Advertising
Level One offers a moderate level of advertising implementation into
the car's system. This includes the infotainment screen and the car's
audio system. The displayed advertisements will never be in the
driver's way of operating the vehicle safely. Additionally, as the
level One offers no personalisation, no data will be shared with TOL
for the purpose of advertising. This will result in less relevant
advertising being shown.
Level Two Advertising
Level Two offers more advertising within the system compared to Level
One. It again uses both the infotainment system screen and the
vehicle's audio system. As Level Two operates with higher
personalisation, the vehicle will collect & send relevant data,
including snippets from the vehicle's internal microphones. This
function can be temporarily disabled in the car's settings, however it
will turn on automatically after five minutes and on start. None of
the advertising features will prevent the driver from safe operation
of the vehicle.
General
By selecting one of the options above the customer agrees to keeping
and using the vehicle for at least four (4) years with minimum 5000
miles driven annually. The customer has the option to change to either
advertising levels within the first two months of purchase by paying
the difference to RRP.
The infotainment system runs on Google's Android Automotive platform
and can therefore be connected to apps such as Spotify and YouTube.
Audio system volume will automatically rise to 10 (out of 50) when an
advertisement starts and the 'Mute' option is disabled for the first 5
seconds, until skipping the promotion becomes available.
Advertising will trigger even if there is no media playing or the
car's cabin is quiet. It will, however postpone and queue
advertisements during phone calls. Level Two has the ability to
analyse conversations and will not disturb an important/serious
conversation. Level One does not have this feature.
Please feel free to reach out to any experience centre or the customer
service for more information.
Advertising never takes over the screen or system. It never prevents you from driving the vehicle safely. Only audio information and basic text available in this mode.
Advertising still does not take over the system, however more information on the infotainment screen is available.
Saved, historical and new offers are directed to the accompanying TOL app on your phone, where full access to all promotion is enabled.
Advertising will never take over your system, it will never prevent you from driving your car safely.

It understands you and your media. Promotions will not start
during important conversations and during phone calls or cut your
song or favourite podcaster off mid sentence.
Interior microphones listen to and analyse conversations. However, this is happening locally, and is not shared or used for promotional purposes.

Only available at Level 2, Level 1 does not recognise gaps in conversations and between songs.
The trickiest mode, but we are keeping you safe! We know car
infotainments are often criticised for moving controls to touch
screens. Understandably, introducing distracting advertisements
into the mix would be irresponsible. To mitigate this, the
advertising in our systems never seeks more attention than other
tasks on the screen. Visual advertisements have a set place
within the home screen and never overlay other apps during
driving. You can interact with them only to the degree any other
control would require them, never requiring more than one or two
taps. There aren't paragraphs of text to read, because alongside
visual advertising – and as a part of it – is the audio
advertising. Since the media is playing through the car’s
system, the advertisement will not start mid-song or a phone
call and will scan for a suitable gap in a podcast before
starting, making sure you are not left on a clifthanger. If the
advertisement is geographically sensitive it will give the
option to reroute to the address of the business, while all
offers can be saved, using buttons on the steering wheel.
All advertising is ‘skippable’ after a few seconds.
No advertising will start during a parking sequence.

All information is for demonstration purposes only.
Advertising will not take over your infotainment system even when parked, it will never prevent you from taking off immediately.
When parked, the core functionality of the advertising is
identical to the driving mode, however if the parking brake is
engaged, more information can be displayed on the screen. You
can view more text and the offer can launch over most of the
screen. However, all offers remain mostly audio with static
visual cues - there is no video advertising. On top of that, no
offer is worth getting in danger and you can always skip the ad
or change into Driving mode.

The TOL companion app offers more than car controls. View and explore offers from your last trip, plan your personalised road trips and more.
Push notifications containing all saved offers are only sent once
the vehicle has been parked, vacated and locked.
All offers are guaranteed for 24 hours saving.
View saved and location-tied offers from your recent trips and take advantage of the promotions from your phone or computer by a single click.
Let the car get to know you. Plan your journeys based on your habits or roll the dice with your personalised plan. Done by BLINK!
Only available at Level 2, Level 1 cannot learn habits and make personalised recommendations.
You won't miss any offers! Even when the vehicle is parked, and
the driver is not in it, you can take advantage of the
TOL-exclusive promotions.Through our TOL companion app
(available on Android and iOS) not only you can
control the car remotely, but most interaction with our offers
happens here, too! Whenever you receive an advertising message,
and save it, this message is then stored in your account and is
sent in the form of a push notification to your phone once you
have locked the vehicle. This notification includes the
promotion from the advertisement but also allows you to visit
the website or take different actions depending on the message –
while it is safe, and you are not driving anymore. You can also
check your history and enable Out-Of-Car Offers - you get the
discounts even when you are not driving.
Another exciting option in the app is route planning. Your car
will understand you in no time. And when you are going for a
road trip, why not let the BLINK take you to your comfort
places?
Like to explore new flavours and cuisines, your BLINK will find
a charger and a nearby restaurant, that is OUT THERE.
Prefer to stick to the known? No problem, your vehicle will
charge, while you can eat your favourite meal!
