1.    Licence agreement for the collection of machine-related data when using the DAC.Site customer portal

1.1.    The operation of the machine generates data that is stored in a machine-related database. This data is sent automatically by the machine via secure communication channels in the mobile phone network and stored on servers of ABI or its service partners (geographically in Germany).

1.2.    The customer confirms that he has been informed by ABI or its contractual partners that the data generated by the machine will be transmitted to ABI and its service partners without any time restriction. The data generated is used exclusively for the following purposes:

• • Analysis by ABI or its contractual partners for service and maintenance purposes, e.g. for troubleshooting and repair
  • Utilisation by ABI for the improvement and development of products and services
  • Processing by ABI or its contractual partners to be able to provide the services and the range of services.

Any further use, in particular disclosure to third parties, must not take place without the express written consent of the customer.

1.3.    To ensure the proper functionality of data collection and transmission, as well as the provision of the customer portal DAC.Site, hardware installed and configured by ABI (modem, SIM card, and additional accessories) is required. The installed hardware is intended exclusively for the country of first placement on the market and may only be operated there. Operation in additional countries is only permitted if their legal regulations correspond to those of the intended destination country. In the event of resale of the machine, import, or operation in third countries with differing regulations, the hardware may not be lawfully used or placed on the market. ABI accepts no liability in such cases. A currently valid list of approved regions of operation can be found in Coverage List DAC.Site.pdf.

1.4.    A data volume of 1 GB per month is available per machine (12 GB/per year). This volume has been calculated for the required data transfer during normal machine utilisation. If the data volume is exceeded, this may result in an additional charge. The contracted data volume can be adjusted if necessary but is an annual subscription.

1.5.   Data transfer via the mobile phone network takes place via price zones with national and international roaming for the EU (including Switzerland and the UK) and the USA. Other roaming zones available upon request.

1.6.   If the machine is sold or leased to third parties, any agreements in place on data collection and utilisation remain valid and must be passed on to third parties.

2.    Agreement on the use of the DAC.Site customer portal

2.1.    ABI grants the customer an exclusive licence for access to the customer portal DAC.Site. The access data is personal and must not be passed on to third parties. The user is obliged to keep their data for the customer portal up to date or to inform their contact person (administrative user) of any changes. An administrative user designated by the customer within their organisation shall be responsible for managing the users.

2.2.    Personal data (including first name, surname, individual e-mail address) is collected for the registration and use of the customer portal - see link Data privacy https://www.abi-group.com/en/privacy-dac-site.html. The user's prior consent is required for this. If the user has an active user account, the existing login data can be used.

2.3.    The customer or user may request that personal data will be deleted at any time after the end and full completion of the portal use.

2.4.    Liability for indirect damages, particularly for loss of production, loss of profit, loss of use, loss of contracts and for the loss or incorrect processing of data, is excluded, unless there is proven intent or serious negligence or a breach of essential contractual obligations. In the event of a breach of material contractual obligations, liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the contract.

3.2.    The minimum term of the booked DAC.Site plan or DAC.Site licence is 1 year (12 months), starting from the date of invoicing of the plan or the associated device.

If an add-on package is booked during the term of a DAC.Site plan, its contract term begins on the booking date. Billing shall be prorated for the remaining term of the DAC.Site plan. Thereafter, the booked add-on package shall be automatically extended for a fee in accordance with the extension of the existing DAC.Site plan.

3.5.    A separate cancellation of optionally booked add-on packages must be received by us in writing no later than three months prior to the expiration of the DAC.Site license. A timely cancellation of the DAC.Site licence automatically includes all associated add-on packages. A separate cancellation of optionally booked add-on packages is not necessary in this case.

The registration key is linked to the machine and the DAC.Site licence bound in the contract and is not transferable. The registration key is usually sent with the invoice. The registration key is used to activate the machine in DAC.Site and, if applicable, to register the administrative user for your organisation (see section 6).
