Temporary bluetooth pairing
First Claim
1. A vehicle system comprising:
- a processor; and
memory having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprisingprompting a user to select a normal BLUETOOTH pairing option or a temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option for pairing a user device with the vehicle system via BLUETOOTH,receiving, from the user, selection of the temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option,in response to receiving the selection of the temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option, prompting the user to select a trigger for terminating a temporary pairing period during which the user device and the vehicle system are to be temporarily paired,receiving, from the user, selection of the trigger for terminating the temporary pairing period,pairing the user device and the vehicle system,receiving, from the user device, data associated with the user,storing, in the memory, the data associated with the user,monitoring for activation of the trigger,in response to the trigger being activated,terminating the temporary pairing period thereby unpairing the user device and the vehicle system, anddeleting, from the memory, the data associated with the user.

Abstract
The concepts and technologies disclosed herein provide a vehicle system that can prompt a user to select a BLUETOOTH pairing type—normal or temporary. In response to receiving selection of a temporary BLUETOOTH pairing type, the vehicle system can prompt the user to select a trigger for terminating a temporary pairing period during which the user device and the vehicle system are to be temporarily paired, and the vehicle system can receive selection of the trigger. The user device and the vehicle system can be paired. The vehicle system can receive data associated with the user and can store the data in a vehicle memory. The vehicle system can monitor for activation of the trigger. In response to the trigger being activated, the vehicle system can terminate the temporary pairing period thereby unpairing the user device and the vehicle system and can delete the data from the vehicle memory.

9. A computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor of a vehicle system, cause the vehicle system to perform operations comprising:
-
prompting a user to select a normal BLUETOOTH pairing option or a temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option for pairing a user device with the vehicle system via BLUETOOTH; receiving, from the user, selection of the temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option; in response to receiving the selection of the temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option, prompting the user to select a trigger for terminating a temporary pairing period during which the user device and the vehicle system are to be temporarily paired; receiving, from the user, selection of the trigger for terminating the temporary pairing period; pairing the user device and the vehicle system; receiving, from the user device, data associated with the user; storing, in a vehicle memory, the data associated with the user; monitoring for activation of the trigger; in response to the trigger being activated, terminating the temporary pairing period thereby unpairing the user device and the vehicle system, and deleting, from the vehicle memory, the data associated with the user. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method comprising:
-
prompting, by a vehicle system, a user to select a normal BLUETOOTH pairing option or a temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option for pairing a user device with the vehicle system via BLUETOOTH; receiving, by the vehicle system, from a user, a selection of the temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option; in response to receiving the selection of the temporary BLUETOOTH pairing option, prompting, by the vehicle system, the user to select a trigger for terminating a temporary pairing period during which the user device and the vehicle system are to be temporarily paired, receiving, by the vehicle system, from the user, selection of the trigger for terminating the temporary pairing period; pairing the user device and the vehicle system; receiving, by the vehicle system, from the user device, data associated with the user; storing, by the vehicle system in a vehicle memory, the data associated with the user; monitoring, by the vehicle system, for activation of the trigger; in response to the trigger being activated, terminating, by the vehicle system, the temporary pairing period thereby unpairing the user device and the vehicle system, and deleting, by the vehicle system, from the vehicle memory, the data associated with the user. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
