Waarschuwing: *Privacy niet inbegrepen bij dit product
Amazfit--owned by Beijing-based Xiaomi--offers a lower cost health and fitness tracker. It tracks it all--heart rate, sleep, blood oxygen levels, stress, steps, calories, menstrual cycles, and more. It also offers Alexa voice control, which means the little band on your wrist has microphones built-in. It's cheap and feature-packed. Should you trust it? Xiaomi, the parent company of Amazfit, was recently caught secretly collecting data on some users, so buyer beware.
Wat kan er gebeuren als er iets misgaat?
Xiaomi--the company that makes the Amazfit Band--has recently come under fire when researchers found that Xiaomi was secretly collecting users' data during private web browsing and phone use. This is a huge yikes! We also had a hard time even finding the privacy policy for this fitness tracker--the privacy policy linked from the webpage only applied to the website. We only managed to find the product's privacy policy when we stumbled across it on their help pages. Another yikes. We also can't guarantee this product meets our Minimum Security Standards as the company didn't take the time to respond to our question about how they handle security vulnerabilities. All in all, we warn this band that tracks some of your most personal biometric data comes with *Privacy Not Included. Buyer beware.
