Sustained Support must be agreed upon in writing between the Customer and DigitalRoute. This support excludes any commitments on the SLA, i.e. workarounds are not provided and all bugs fixes will be fixed in the newest Software version. The Sustained Support further excludes bug fixes or workarounds, regardless of the severity level, in any third-party products included in the Software. 

DigitalRoute Support data policy

When requesting Support Services, the Customer shall ensure that the information provided to DigitalRoute in a support ticket (or otherwise) does not contain any information, which direct or indirect relates to an identified or identifiable natural person, such as name, identification number, location data, online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person (“Personal Data”) and/or any other sensitive, classified or otherwise protected or confidential information (“Protected Data”) 

In order for DigitalRoute to perform the Support Services  in connection with an incident, Customer may, depending on the applicable incident and/or as requested by DigitalRoute in each case, provide the following information in the support channel: 

Information that does not include any Personal Data or Protected Data: 

  • Output of the “plist mzsh command in order for DigitalRoute to verify the package version against the reported system version. 
  • System statistics from the time of the incident. 
  • Java version & runtime statistics. 

Information that may include Personal Data and/or Protected Data shall be cleaned or anonymized before providing the information to DigitalRoute according to below: 

  • All available logs for the time of the incident. Personal Data and/or Protected Data may via custom configuration, i.e., by APL, be inserted into the System Log or the separate APL log. Such data must be removed from the log files before sending the log to DigitalRoute 
  • Together with the workflow configuration, DigitalRoute may ask for input usage data. Such usage data must not include any Personal Data and/or Protected Data, hence, the test files must be anonymized usage data files. 
  • Thread and in memory data Java environment information. Thread and memory data taken from a production system will include Personal Data and/or Protected Data (sensitive usage data) in the form of UDRs. Thread and in memory data should always be taken from a system not using Personal Data and/or Protected Data (unsensitive usage data), e.g., test files such as anonymized usage data files.  
  • Network traces 

 

If DigitalRoute support requests any additional information other than those listed above, the Customer shall only provide information which is relevant for the applicable support case and shall ensure that such additional information does not contain any Personal Data or Protected Data 

If, by accident, the Customer does provide Personal Data and/or Protected Data to DigitalRoute, Customer is responsible to immediately inform DigitalRoute. DigitalRoute will then delete all such data following established security processes. Should DigitalRoute, on its own, discover that the Customer has provided Personal Data and/or Protected Data, DigitalRoute will delete such data following established security processes and inform the Customer.
