To the extent that the monitor and the app are connected to the Internet, technical information about your video door entry system, including IP address, monitor identifier, monitor firmware version, smartphone model with which it was paired, will be collected and sent to Fermax. This information is used by Fermax to identify the technical attributes of the system, and to ensure that your system has the latest security and stability patches to guarantee secure service provision.

We ensure that we do not store sensitive information about our users, and that the only data of a personal nature is email (considered low risk by the AEPD - Spanish Data Protection Agency).

In addition to carrying out regular cybersecurity audits of our product, both at a physical level (hardware) and at a software level (servers, services and apps), we have a specific team within Fermax to ensure the security measures of both our internal infrastructure and our product.  This team is responsible for dealing with possible cybersecurity incidents and, where appropriate, and in compliance with the GDPR and its transposition to the LOPD, contacting the AEPD and our potential users in the event of a security breach that may have affected them.

In the event that the user wishes to avoid this automatic collection of information, he/she can request cancellation of the service through the app (account deletion), or deactivate Internet connectivity on the monitor.
