General Terms and conditions for Camfil digital services

Version 01: 09/03/2023

1. DESCRIPTION OF CAMFIL DIGITAL SERVICES

  1. Camfil Group provides air purifiers and other clean air solutions (the “Products”). Some Products are equipped with sensors that are either integrated with the Products or installed separately (collectively called “Sensors”). The City Connect Air purifier is an example of a Product with integrated Sensor and the Air Image Sensor and GoldLink+ are examples of separate Sensors.
  2. When a Sensor has been activated, it will continuously collect and transmit information regarding the environment where the Product is placed, such as temperature, particle grades and humidity, etc. (the “Data”). Camfil Group provides various digital services using the Data and analytics of the Data (the “Services”).
  3. The Services are intended to increase the value of Camfil Group’s Products. Depending on the Products and Sensors, the Services may, for example, allow Customer to, (a) see the Data and Data statistics via a dashboard; (b) receive warnings, e.g. if the humidity level exceeds normal values or if the filter in the Product needs to be replaced; or (c) regulate the environment by entering required values and thereby controlling the environment where the Product is located. Depending on the Product, the Services are either made available via a Web Portal and accessed through an Account or made available via an URL Link.
  4. These terms and conditions (the “Terms”) regulate the use of the Services. For the avoidance of doubt, the Terms do not regulate the sale of the Products.
