Why it matters in projects
- Connectivity clauses belong in the equipment contract.
- Cloud features may not be usable in every market.
- Data governance should be decided before, not after, deployment.
Data rules differ by jurisdiction and change frequently. Take legal advice for cross-border deployments.
