Registrees 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.
