Construction and mining equipment sold through independent dealers. Caterpillar's connected-machine telematics stream location, utilisation and diagnostic data from equipment back to the manufacturer and dealer — so a small contractor's machine reports its working hours and whereabouts to two companies, under a dealer agreement the operator may never have read. Small-business relevant, no consumer relationship.
