Terms of Service
General terms and conditions of the Smart Power Seuranta service
1. General
1.1 These terms and conditions apply to the Smart Power Seuranta service (hereinafter the "Service") provided by eWatt Smart Power Systems Oy (3321142-9) (hereinafter the "Service Provider"). The purpose of the Service is to monitor and optimise the electricity consumption of a property using artificial intelligence.
1.2 Use of the Service requires acceptance of these terms and conditions. By using the Service, you undertake to comply with these terms.
1.3 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the Service is suitable for the Customer's intended use. Any order placed by the Customer is binding.
2. Content of the Service
2.1 The Service provides accurate information on the property's electricity consumption and phase-specific data on voltage, power and current. Use of the Service requires the connection of an eWatt reader device, and the Customer is responsible for ensuring it is connected to the electricity meter.
2.2 The Service Provider analyses the electricity data collected from the property and uses it to provide suggestions for reducing and optimising electricity consumption. Depending on the property, the analysis process takes approximately 2–4 weeks, during which the Customer is asked for information about the equipment on the premises and their operating hours.
2.3 The Service includes various consumption reports that may contain information about the entire property, equipment groups or individual devices. A report template can be created for the Customer and delivered automatically at agreed intervals.
2.4 Using artificial intelligence, the Service Provider continuously monitors the property's electricity consumption, taking into account, among other things, seasonal variation and any solar panels and battery solutions, and seeks to identify savings measures.
3. Collection and use of data
3.1 The Service collects data on the property's electricity consumption with the eWatt reader device via the HAN port of the electricity meter. The reader device is the property of the Service Provider, and the Customer is obliged to return the device undamaged within 30 days of the termination of the agreement at the latest.
3.2 The Service Provider has the right to use the collected data for research, for developing its services — including developing artificial intelligence and its algorithms — and for statistical purposes. The data is anonymised before use so that an individual Customer cannot be identified. Anonymised data may also be used together with trusted third parties (e.g. universities) for statistical and research purposes.
3.3 To provide the Service, data is collected from the electricity meter reader connected to the Service (measurement data and consumption information). The Service Provider may use the collected data in anonymised form to develop the Service also after the end of the contract period or customer relationship.
3.4 The Customer undertakes not to disclose the data to third parties or to develop a competing product. In particular, the Customer is strictly prohibited from selling, renting, lending the data or software, or otherwise making it available to third parties — especially competitors of the Service Provider — in any way (for example electronically or via online services), whether for a fee or free of charge, whether for profit or not, and/or from taking part in such activities.
4. Customer's obligations
4.1 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the equipment required to use the Service is correctly installed and is compatible with the property's electricity meter. Failure to install the device does not release the Customer from the obligation to pay. The Customer undertakes to follow the installation and operating instructions provided by the Service Provider. During deployment, the Customer shall promptly notify the Service Provider if the Service does not work as intended.
4.2 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the eWatt reader device is correctly connected and is not disconnected from the electricity meter without notifying the Service Provider. The Customer is responsible for the eWatt reader device while it is in the Customer's use during the contract period and undertakes to store the eWatt device carefully and without damaging it. If the Customer fails to return the eWatt reader device to the Service Provider within the deadline or returns the device damaged so that it is no longer usable, the Customer shall compensate the Service Provider for the value of the device, 450 euros (VAT 0%).
4.3 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that its users store the credentials and passwords required to use the Service carefully and do not disclose them to third parties. The Customer is responsible for use carried out with its credentials. The Customer undertakes to notify the supplier without delay if credentials or passwords are disclosed to a third party or if there is suspicion of misuse of credentials or passwords.
4.4 The Customer is responsible for the opening of the HAN port. Opening only requires a notification to the local electricity network company, which can be made by phone or email.
