We take data protection very seriously
For this reason, we have not just chosen any old software partner. Microsoft, as the first leading provider of cloud services, is certified in accordance with the international standard ISO/IEC 27018, which regulates data protection, and uses AES-256 – the same encryption technology employed in the banking sector. All personal data will be anonymised in the Cloud on transmission from the SmartDeviceBox. We manage our users’ personal data exclusively via servers in our own data centre in Germany. This offers you maximum security in accordance with the high German and European data protection standards.
If you have any questions relating to connected appliance security, please contact us.
