Method and system for exchanging data between users of a vehicle

1. A method of exchanging data between users of a vehicle, including a main user having a first personal electronic device and a secondary user having a second personal electronic device, wherein the method includes a preparatory step comprising the following steps:

1a) A first email address belonging to the main user is entered into the first personal electronic device, and a dedicated application is installed on the first personal electronic device;

1b) The application installed on the first personal electronic device connects to an information cloud;

1c) The cloud assigns a first mobile identifier to the application installed on the first personal electronic device;

1d) The application installed on the first personal electronic device sends data to a remote server including the first email address and the first mobile identifier;

2a) A second email address belonging to the secondary user is entered into the second personal electronic device, and a dedicated application is installed on the second personal electronic device;

2b) The application installed on the second personal electronic device connects to the cloud;

2c) The cloud assigns a second mobile identifier to the application installed on the second personal electronic device;

2d) The application installed on the second personal electronic device sends data to a remote server including the second email address and the second mobile identifier;

wherein the second email address belonging to the secondary user is transmitted to the main user;

The method additionally includes a transmission phase comprising the following steps:

3a) The application installed on the first personal electronic device sends data to the remote server including the second email address and instructions for transfer of information regarding the vehicle;

3b) The remote server sends data to the cloud including the second mobile identifier and information regarding the vehicle;

3c) The cloud sends the information regarding the vehicle to the application installed on the second personal electronic device.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein in step 3c), the cloud uses the second mobile identifier in order to identify a provisional identifier temporarily assigned to the second personal electronic device and then uses this provisional identifier in order to send information regarding the vehicle to the second personal electronic device.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the preparatory step also includes a step 1e) wherein the remote server sends the first personal electronic device certain data regarding the vehicle.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the information regarding the vehicle comprises customizable parameters regarding the vehicle, including for example the positions of the seats, adjustment of the air conditioning and heating system and programming of the radio.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the vehicle is equipped with a keyless entry system and that the information regarding the vehicle includes an identification key which, once received by the application installed on the first personal electronic device or the second personal electronic device, authorizes a connection with the keyless entry system for accessing the vehicle.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first personal electronic device and/or the second personal electronic device is a mobile telephone.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first personal electronic device and/or the second personal electronic device is an electronic watch.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first personal electronic device and/or the second personal electronic device is a digital tablet.

9. A system for exchanging data between users of a vehicle, including a main user and a secondary user, the system comprising:

a vehicle drivable by the main user or the secondary user;

a first personal electronic device carried by the main user and configured for storing a first email address belonging to the main user and for running a dedicated application;

a second personal electronic device carried by the secondary user and configured for storing a second email address belonging to the secondary user and for running a dedicated application;

an information cloud comprising a collection of interconnected hardware, networks and software, configured for assigning both a first mobile identifier to the application installed on the first personal electronic device and also a second mobile identifier to the application installed on the second personal electronic device;

a remote server configured for storing data including the first email address and the first mobile identifier received from the first personal electronic device and also the second email address and second mobile identifier received from the second personal electronic device; and

a communication chain from the first personal electronic device to the second personal electronic device, configured such that when the application installed on the first personal electronic device sends data to the remote server including the second email address and instructions for the transfer of information regarding the vehicle, the remote server subsequently sends data to the cloud including the second mobile identifier and information regarding the vehicle, and then the cloud sends information regarding the vehicle to the application installed on the second personal electronic device.

10. A software application, configured to be installed and executed on a personal electronic device where the application comprises code segments for the execution of steps 1b) to 1d) or 2b) to 2d) and code segments for the execution of steps 3a) and/or 3c), from the method according to claim 1 , when the application is executed on the personal electronic device.
