EU Data Act Information

Information Provided in Accordance with the Regulation (EU) 2023/2854 (“EU Data Act”)

Our products generate and collect various types of data. In accordance with Article 3.2 of the EU Data Act taking effect as of 12 September 2025, we hereby provide information regarding the data generated and collected by our products as follows: (a) The type, format and estimated volume of product data which the connected product is capable of generating;

 

– Type:

• Product management and identification data (e.g., attachment types, software versions)
• Product working and operational data (e.g., hour meter readings, digging and traveling hours, working hours for specific operations)
• Product condition data (e.g., oil temperature, water temperature, pump pressure, fuel consumption)
• Maintenance-related data (e.g., date/time of oil and filter replacement)
• Alarms and failure data (e.g., overload occurrences, error codes)
• Location data (e.g., latitude and longitude obtained from GPS)

 

-Format:

Generally the format(s) used for the above datatypes are JSON, XML, CSV, and XLSX.

-Estimated volume of product data: Depending on the version, condition, and usage of the product, data is typically generated and collected at a rate of 1 to 15 KB per day.

 

(b) Whether the connected product is capable of generating data continuously and in real-time;

Depending on the products, data is usually generated continuously and transmitted to the server at regular intervals, rather than in real time. In some products, data is continuously generated and transmitted in response to requests from the server.

 

(c) Whether the connected product is capable of storing data on-device or on a remote server, including, where applicable, the intended duration of retention;

Storage locations vary depending on the product. In general, data is stored on our server, but some products also store data locally on the device. The stored data is typically retained for five years, depending on the type of data. (However, if necessary for the operation of our system, specific data will be retained for the period necessary for that purpose.）

 

(d) How the user may access, retrieve or, where relevant, erase the data, including the technical means to do so, as well as their terms of use and quality of service;
