General Motors (GM) can’t sell their consumers’ geolocation and driver behavior data to consumer reporting agencies for the next five years, according to a proposed settlement between the automaker and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

General Motors will be banned for five years from disclosing data that it collects from drivers to consumer reporting agencies as part of a settlement with the government to resolve claims that the automaker shared such data without consumers’ permission.

GM banned for selling driver data for five years after misleading sign-ups and selling sensitive information, FTC claims.

The Federal Trade Commission announced Thursday that GM agreed to refrain for five years from disclosing data on geographic locations and driving habits.

“GM monitored and sold people’s precise geolocation data and driver behavior information, sometimes as often as every three seconds,” FTC Chair Lina Khan said in a statement. “With this action, the FTC is safeguarding Americans’ privacy and protecting people from unchecked surveillance.”

GM sold precise driver data collected through OnStar and a discontinued feature called Smart Driver. The information could have hiked insurance rates.

General Motors reached an agreement to settle allegations that the automaker shared drivers’ locations and behavior data without their consent, the Federal Trade Commission said.

The FTC says GM can't sell data for five years following allegations of dubious data practices.
