Information on data protection
When your Home Connect refrigerator is connected for
the first time to a WLAN network that is connected to
the Internet, your appliance transmits the following
categories of data to the Home Connect server (initial
registration):
■ Unique appliance identification (consisting of
appliance codes as well as the MAC address of the
installed Wi-Fi communication module).
■ Security certificate of the Wi-Fi communication
module (to ensure a secure IT connection).
■ The current software and hardware version of your
domestic appliance.
■ Status of any previous resetting to factory settings.
This initial registration prepares the Home Connect
functions for use and is required only when you want to
use Home Connect for the first time.
Note
Note that the Home Connect functions can be used
only in conjunction with the Home Connect app.
Information on data protection can be accessed in the
Home Connect app.
