8. Data Protection and Privacy

The definitions in this Section 8 shall have the same meaning as in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). When you use equipment in which tracking devices of Trackunit have been installed (‘the Equipment’) as an end-customer you are the Data Controller for Personal Data Processed by the Trackunit tracking device. As an end-customer (Data Controller) you are obliged to fulfill the obligations in the relevant data protection legislation. The Personal Data relating to the end-users of the Equipment shall be Processed in accordance with the Rights of the Data Subject (e.g. Access to Personal Data). Trackunit acts as Data Processor or sub-processor. Trackunit does only Process Personal Data upon specific instructions from the end-customer (Data Controller) or another Data Processor (e.g. a rental company) acting on behalf of the end-customer as a Data Controller. The relationship between the end-customer and Trackunit or a Data Processor and Trackunit is regulated in a Data Processing Agreement in accordance with the requirements in the relevant data protection legislation. Trackunit is entitled to aggregate and/or anonymize data collected from the tracking devices. When data are anonymized, it is no longer possible to identify the end-user of the Equipment. In accordance with Danish, EU and U.S. laws and regulations, Trackunit shall implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration and against unauthorized disclosure, abuse or other processing in violation of such laws and regulations. Trackunit and Customer undertake to handle any information as confidential, including but not limited to documents, source code, e-mail correspondence, etc., pursuant to Section 10 below. After expiration or termination of these conditions, such information shall remain confidential for five years. The only exception shall be information characterized as general knowledge. Trackunit shall retain the right, but not the obligation to access data generated by Customer for purposes of (a) processing such data on behalf of Customer, and (b) for Trackunit’s internal statistical purposes on an anonymized basis. Trackunit shall also retain the right, but not the obligation, to store data indefinitely while at all times acting in accordance with all applicable laws and regulation. Trackunit shall not sell or disclose any data unless pursuant to written direction from the Data Controller(s) of such data or pursuant to court order. However, Trackunit retains the right to analyze and disclose market statistics which, among other sources are based on anonymous operating data from Trackunit Hardware installed on Customer’s equipment. Trackunit shall retain the right, but not the obligation to make use of subcontractors with regard to the data Processing, and to make use of Standard Contractual Clauses if needed to uphold applicable data protection legislation and regulation. Trackunit shall upon request from Customer, produce a list of subcontractors to Customer. Trackunit shall at all times ensure, that the subcontractor meets the same standards as required by these Conditions between Trackunit and Customer. For any questions please see our privacy policy at trackunit.com or contact our DPO at [email protected].

9. Product Information

Any Product information – regardless of whether it stems from Trackunit or one of Trackunit’s business associations – including information regarding weight, dimensions, capacity or other technical data, description, prospectus, advertisement etc. which is regarded as providing information, is only binding to the extent that Trackunit specifically refers to it in the order and/or order confirmation. Specific requirements from Customer are only binding to the extent they are confirmed in writing by Trackunit. Trackunit reserves the right to revise and discontinue Products at any time and without prior notice. Trackunit will ship Products that have the same or similar functionality and performance of Products ordered, but changes, including, but not limited to, changes with regard to measurements and weight, due to technical requirements between what is shipped and what is described in specification sheets, catalogues, or the like, are possible. Customer is at all time responsible for Customer’s use of Trackunit Products. Customer understands that Trackunit Products shall not be used for any purpose other than equipment managing and tracking. Trackunit prohibits the use of Trackunit Products in any way that is unlawful.

Customer agrees that any Products purchased by Customer may be used as a hub for transmission of other Trackunit or third-party units’ proximity location and sensory data via the Product’s Bluetooth signal, including proximity location and sensory data concerning third parties’ Trackunit units. Products are only used as hubs for transmission of proximity location and sensory data and do not enable users of devices to get access to the proximity location and sensory data of other Customers’ units. If the user of any mobile devices containing the Trackunit app used for proximity location of Trackunit units (hereafter “the mobile device”), has consented to the use of the mobile device as a hub in accordance with the national rules implementing Article 5 (3) of Directive 2009/136, then the unit will be used as a hub for transmission of proximity location and sensory data from Trackunit units. The user may at any time withdraw any consents given in this regard. Withdrawal of consent entails that the device will no longer be able to be included as a hub in the Trackunit network used for identification of proximity location or sensory data. The purpose of the use of the mobile device identifier is to enable creation of a Trackunit network of hubs for identification of Trackunit units. The mobile devices are only used as hubs for transmission of proximity location and sensory data and do not enable users of devices to get access to the proximity location or sensory data of other Customers’ units. Trackunit KIN Products sends out signals which, if transmitted via other Bluetooth devices, enable the user to receive information on the proximity location of the KIN. The proximity location data, as a starting point, does not enable identification of natural persons. However, if the KIN is attached to a device which indirectly can be connected to a natural person, Section 8 of these Conditions applies.

10. Protected and Confidential Information

Any type of information which is not publicly available, including drawings and technical documents and other trade secrets, transferred by Trackunit to Customer (“Confidential Information”), shall remain the exclusive property of Trackunit and shall be treated as confidential by Customer. Such Confidential Information has been developed at substantial expense and contains trade secrets that are the exclusive property of Trackunit. Confidential Information thus must not, without Trackunit’s written consent, be copied, reproduced or forwarded to a third party or used for any purpose other than the one for which it was intended when transferred. Confidential Information shall be returned to Trackunit upon request. For the avoidance of doubt, Confidential Information supplied by Trackunit does not include information that (a) was generally available to Customer from public or published sources, provided publication did not take place in violation of these Conditions or through fault or omission of Customer, (b) was lawfully obtained from a source under no obligation of confidentiality, directly or indirectly, to either Customer or Trackunit, or (c) was disclosed to the general public with the written approval of Trackunit, and Customer shall exercise due diligence and reasonable care to hold such information in confidence. Customer’s confidentiality obligations under this Section 10 shall survive the termination or expiration of these Conditions.
