Tell HN: Raspberry Pi Connect Terms of Service Go Full GDPR
- cf100clunk 4mo agoRegistrees and users of Raspberry Pi Connect have been emailed a notice of changes to the Terms Of Service that include these troubling UK GDPR-based updates: - Schedule 1 (Acceptable Use Policy): Introduces guardrails in respect of acceptable use. It also defines what constitutes a Security Event—such as introducing vulnerabilities, network scanning, etc. It also prohibits using the service to view or stream high-risk data. - Schedule 2 (Data Processing Schedule): Codifies our respective privacy roles under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Raspberry Pi acts as a “mere conduit” for encrypted session data, guarantees that visual feeds are never stored or inspected in a decrypted format, and locks down metadata log retention to a strict 90-day deletion cap. Additionally, the new terms reinforce that they apply in addition to the Raspberry Pi General Terms and Conditions and shall prevail regarding your use of Connect in the event of any conflict.
