For the video clips, you can control whether any are sent to Tesla under the data sharing options on the in-car menu system.

Video is only recorded locally if Sentry mode is enabled (when parked) or Dashcam is enabled (when driving). Sentry mode prevents the car from going to sleep / opening the HV contactor, which costs a small amount of battery if it's enabled for long periods.

The car's location is accessible through the app, so this is sent through Tesla's servers.
