Airthings has some good hardware and I like the e-ink display but it has terrible terms of use that severely restrict your ownership rights.
Here are some excerpts from Airthings T&Cs [1] that I find very problematic:
In 15.4. of Airthings T&C it writes: “We own and shall retain ownership of all rights to all data and information collected via the Services provided to you…”
Furthermore, in 15.2 Airthings claims all rights for modifications that you might carry out on the Airthings monitor: “You hereby assign to Airthings all right, title, and interest (including Intellectual Property Rights) that you may have in any custom developments, modifications, or derivative works of the Services and Products created or developed by or for you, including but not limited to design, artwork, technology, software, data, functionality, and documentation.”
I wrote about it in a review with our monitor [2].
