Data protection

Siemens observes the data protection guidelines, especially the requirements regarding data
minimization (privacy by design). This means the following for this product: The product does
not process / save any personal information, but only technical functional data (e.g. time
stamps). If the user links this data to other data (e.g. shift plans) or if the user saves personal
information on the same medium (e.g. hard disk) and therefore creates a personal reference in
the process, the user has to ensure meeting the guidelines regarding data protection.
2.5.3
