5G SENS Compliances

General

The 5G SENS is not a medical device. That means the 5G SENS is not intended for a medical purpose, to be used directly on humans.

The device can only be used when a distance of 20 cm to the human body is guaranteed. It is strictly for industrial use/application and must be installed in an industrial environment. The requirements regarding the location and the restriction to locations with a distance greater than 20 cm to a user are clearly indicated with this device as required by law.

WEEE

Exelonix GmbH (WEEE Reg. No. DE46285380) fully endorses the environmental objectives of the WEEE. All electronic products must be collected and sent to approved operators for the safe disposal of electronic equipment.

The WEEE Directive (2012/19/EU) aims to reduce the amount of waste electrical and electronic equipment that ends up in landfills. Its primary purpose is the prevention of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) and requires the re-use, recycling and recovery of such waste, to reduce its disposal to landfill or incineration. All electrical and electronic waste must be stored, collected, treated, recycled and disposed of separately from other waste. Therefore, if you are intending to discard these at the end of their useful life, please contact your local re-seller for disposal. Local authorities will also provide information on the free disposal of electronic equipment.

GDPR

The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) aims to strengthen the protection of personal data in the European Union (“EU”). Coming into force on May 25, 2018, the GDPR replaces the current EU Data Protection Directive as well as its national implementations in EU member states. Exelonix GmbH places a high priority on protecting and managing data, especially that of its clients and employees. The company complies with applicable GDPR regulations. This privacy policy will explain how our organisation uses the data we collect when you use your device.

What data do we collect?

By using your device Exelonix GmbH collects the following data:

• The company-specific unique identifier (ID) of the device

• The International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) of the device

• The sensor measurement data of the device

• The configuration data of the device

How do we collect your data?

• The IMEI is recorded when the device is manufactured

• The ID, measurement and configuration data is sent by the device when communicating with our APIs

How will we use your data?

Exelonix GmbH collects your data so that we can:

• Manage firmware, software and configuration updates

• Forward measurement and configuration data to partner companies so that they can provide you with tools for data analysis. By using the device, you agree that Exelonix GmbH will share your data with our partner companies so that they may offer you their products and services. The companies with whom we share your data are:

  • Leoworx Ortungssysteme GmbH, Berliner Promenade 5, 66111 Saarbrücken

• Provide you with tools for data visualisation and analysis (optional service)

How do we store your data?

The metadata of your device (ID, IMEI and configuration) is stored in databases for the device's lifetime to provide device management functionality. Once you inform us that the metadata of the device is no longer needed we will delete all records of the device within four weeks.

The measurement data of your device is temporarily stored in a message broker to compensate for outages that may arise in the services of our partner companies. There is an automated process that deletes measurement data that is older than seven days.

We operate a web-based data analysis and visualisation tool that you can use on request. By using this service, you agree that the measurement data of your device is stored permanently in a database. The permanent storage of measurement data is disabled by default and will be enabled for individual devices on your request only. Once you inform us that the data for this service is no longer needed we will delete all measurement data of the device within four weeks.

Exelonix GmbH securely stores all of your data at a data centre in Germany. Only authorized and trained Exelonix GmbH staff has access to the resources within the data centre. The access to the message broker and the databases is password protected and requires approval.

Each device uses individually signed authentication tokens (JWT-ES256) and the Exelonix APIs verify these tokens to ensure the authenticity of your telemetry data. The entire communication that transfers your data between the device, our APIs and our partner's services is secured via transport layer security (TLS).
