Information we collect about you when using the Airios RF Ethernet Bridge

We may collect certain information based on your use of your HVAC device via the Airios RF Ethernet Bridge. Our RF Ethernet Bridge collects and sends usage data that we store in the Airios cloud.

If you want access to your personal usage data in your app or web application the software will generate a unique encrypted code that only you can use to link to your personal usage data. This code is stored securely in the Airios database. The code cannot be linked to you as a person. At Airios we do not know which person belongs to which code.
