## DSGVO und Datenschutz
**Gesamteinschätzung:** unklar / nicht verfügbar

**On-prem / local hosting: indirect / not available**

No explicit on-premise or self-hosting option for the overall solution was found on the website. Some individual robotics products operate partly locally or offline, but a documented on-prem operating model from the provider is not specified on the website.

**Private cloud / data center: unclear**

There are indications of cloud platforms and global operation and control systems, but no reliable description of a dedicated private cloud option, no segregated customer environment, and no EU/EEA data center. Not specified on the website.

**EU SaaS / managed: unclear**

A managed cloud operation is indirectly apparent, for example via the website and a healthcare cloud platform. However, EU/EEA data residency or EU/EEA SaaS operation is not specified on the website.

**Hybrid: partial**

There are indirect indications of mixed scenarios: robotics solutions with local hardware as well as cloud platforms; in addition, UGOT mentions 'offline model training'. However, a clearly documented hybrid deployment model with defined local and external processing is not specified on the website.

**DPA / DPA: unclear**

A DPA, a Data Processing Agreement page, or corresponding contractual documents were not found on the website.

**No training: unclear**

A statement that prompts, uploads, chat histories, or outputs are not used to train general models was not found on the website. An opt-out option is also not specified.

**Open source / transparency path: partial**

There is a transparency path for some individual education products: UGOT mentions an 'Open Source System', support for Micro Bit, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi, as well as an open Python SDK. Walker Tienkung mentions 'open-source training frameworks' and open datasets. However, this is not a general open-source or self-hosting path for the overall solution.

**Data processing**

The privacy policy found on the website explicitly refers to the website and not to products or other services. For this website, UBTECH collects contact and inquiry data and processes and secures it via global operation and control systems. UBTECH names Hong Kong, China as a storage location; in addition, servers in China, the USA, Singapore, and Hong Kong are mentioned, and data may also be transferred to third-party providers and business partners in other countries or regions. For product or platform offerings, reliable, consistent hosting and privacy information is lacking on the website.

**Conclusion**

From an EU/EEA perspective, the situation is **not sufficiently documented** for a GDPR assessment of the overall solution. There are privacy and compliance references, but no proven EU data residency, no DPA found, no subprocessor list, and no clear evidence of a privacy-friendly deployment path within the EU/EEA. Therefore, neither a clear approval nor a reliable negative determination for all products is possible; overall, the assessment remains *unclear*.

For an assessment from the perspective of users in the EU/EEA area, the documentation on the website is too incomplete. It is positive that a privacy policy is available, data subject rights are described, and UBTECH refers to Privacy Impact Assessments, Privacy by Design, and a designated data protection officer. However, what speaks against clearly GDPR-compliant usability is that, according to the privacy policy, website data is stored on servers in Hong Kong, China, and transfers to other third countries such as China, the USA, and Singapore may also take place. An EU/EEA data center, EU data residency, an AVV/DPA, a subprocessor list, as well as reliable information on certifications or a training opt-out are not specified on the website.

**Positive**

Available privacy policy; description of data subject rights such as access, rectification, erasure, restriction, and data portability; references to Privacy by Design, Privacy Impact Assessments, DPO, and emergency mechanisms for data protection incidents.

**Negative**

The website names Hong Kong, China as the storage location and additionally refers to servers in China, the USA, Singapore, and Hong Kong; third-country processing is therefore expressly intended. An EU/EEA server location, EU data residency, AVV/DPA, subprocessor list, contractual exclusion of model training, or reliable evidence regarding ISO 27001, SOC 2, or similar certifications are not specified on the website. In addition, the general privacy policy found expressly applies only to the website and not to products or other services.

**Server location**

For the website, UBTECH states servers in Hong Kong, China as the storage location. In addition, the privacy policy mentions servers in China, the USA, Singapore, and Hong Kong. A server location in the EU/EEA area is not specified on the website.

## Vorteile
- Broad humanoid product line for industry, commercial services and education
- Strong focus on embodied AI, SLAM, autonomous navigation, servo drives and human-robot interaction
- Walker S/S1/S2 already geared towards industrial scenarios
- Walker C for reception, tour guide, exhibition, Q&A and public spaces
- Listed company with financial reports and investor relations area

## Nachteile
- No reliable CE conformity of the humanoid Walker series publicly found for Europe
- Data protection, cloud, telemetry and data residency details for humanoid robots not sufficiently transparent from an EU perspective
- Many details are manufacturer self-representation; productive EU integration requires separate safety, machine law and data protection checks
- Prices, delivery conditions, service and maintenance structure for EU customers are not publicly documented in a transparent manner
