Single devices are configured by the free HomematicIP Cloud Service, which is run exclu-
sively on servers located in Germany and therefore complies with European and German data
protection guidelines. Furthermore, all communication between the Access Point, cloud and
app is encrypted. Neither during nor after installation of the app, you will need to provide private
data such as name, email address or mobile phone number.
All products communicate via the robust and reliable 868 MHz HomematicIP Wireless Protocol.
There are no interferences caused by WLAN, Bluetooth or other radio standards operating within
the 2.4GHz frequency band.
Anonymity for maximum data protection
Your home is the most crucial private area. This is where you want to feel not only at ease and
secure but safe as well. Accordingly, the decision for a smart home should certainly not come
at the cost of any compromises in the areas of data protection and security.
HomematicIP can also be relied upon at this point. Because your privacy is already protected in a
first step: No personal data are queried or recorded for the system setup – aside from the techni-
cally necessary IP address. Moreover, all data saved in the HomematicIP Cloud are provided on
servers in Germany and are thus subject to the German and European data protection guidelines.
HomematicIP is the only smart home system whose protocol, IT and data security has been
certified by VDE.
In addition to the security of your data, the transmission security also ranks first. The
communication of HomematicIP is secure and cannot be manipulated. Any reading or changing
of data or other kinds of attack are impossible. Approved procedures are used for it which are
also applied in online banking.
Oine operation – direct communication of devices without the internet
“A cloud-based smart home does not work without the internet” – that’s just one of the
innumerable prejudices concerning smart home systems, and for some providers, this might
even be true. HomematicIP proves just the opposite: Owing to the use of the IPv6 protocol,
every HomematicIP device has its own IPv6 address for communication within the system. Thus,
storage of information and device status is enabled directly in the devices themselves – without
use of the cloud. Such direct communication among themselves results in a high fail safety and
very low latencies, thus remarkably fast execution of commands.
While an internet connection is required for the setup and control, the basic functions are
working oine anytime. This comprises the direct operation on the devices (for example, to
switch on the light), the execution of heating, time and shading schedules, as well as local alarms
in the security area.
HomematicIP received several awards already
HomematicIP is convincing in every respect and also scores all around the important security
standards. This is confirmed by independent institutes: In March 2020, the AV TEST Institute
distinguishes HomematicIP already for the third time running as a data protection-friendly,
smart home solution.
Moreover, HomematicIP is the first smart home system whose protocol, IT and data security
has been certified by VDE. In this respect, the tests concern not only the total system but also, in
detail, the Access Point, the backend version, the respectively valid iOS and Android app versions
as well as the wireless-based protocol.
In examinations by the German product testing foundation ‘Stiftung Warentest’, HomematicIP
products also achieved time and again top marks in the tests. These products include, among
others, various radiator thermostats.
