Yes, after it loads and authenticates, your phone takes over for the main function and it uses your phone's data stream but the initial functions is still dependent on the in-vehicle data connection.

I'm not going to go around in circles, if you doubt me, contact Connectdrive customer service and they'll confirm it.
My point is BMW ConnnectedDrive services use an in-vehicle data connection that is NOT dependent on a cell phone.

EDIT:

Misread your original post as "in-vehicle data connection used by AC vs. in-vehicle data connection used by BC to validate AC subscription"
