AI, Data & Privacy
Caution - data processed in China
This robot sends data to cloud servers in China. For EU residents, this represents a significant data protection consideration. China's data protection framework differs substantially from GDPR, and data transferred there is subject to Chinese law. EU residents should carefully evaluate whether adequate safeguards are in place before using this product.
How to keep it private
The xSecure safety system and automatic cleaning cycle run on-device without internet. Basic operation is possible via the physical button. Health analytics, multi-cat identification features, remote monitoring, and deodorizer scheduling require the PetKit app and cloud.
Available privacy controls
Start cleaning cycles manually without connecting to the app or internet
All safety sensors (infrared, weight, anti-pinch) operate locally regardless of cloud connectivity
Exercise caution as PetKit transmits pet health data to Chinese cloud servers. For privacy, operate the Pura Max using the physical button without Wi-Fi connectivity. The xSecure safety system works fully offline. If you use the app, know that cat weight trends, visit frequency, and usage patterns are collected. There are no GDPR-specific protections or EU data processing options. The 76L capacity means less frequent maintenance even without app monitoring.
What this means for EU residents
PetKit is a Chinese manufacturer (Shanghai-based). The PetKit app transmits pet data including cat weight, usage frequency, visit duration, and health metrics to Chinese cloud servers. PetKit collects device usage data and pet health analytics for product improvement and in-app features.
