HVAC and building systems, increasingly connected. A residential smart thermostat transmits occupancy and temperature patterns supporting the same inferences the Seventh Circuit found constitutionally significant in the smart meter case — when a house is empty, when people sleep, when routines change. Carrier formerly owned Kidde and its residential fire safety lines but sold its Commercial and Residential Fire business to an affiliate of Lone Star Funds on December 2, 2024; building systems it still sells can generate data about occupants who are party to nothing.

Terms
Arbitration
Not independently confirmed this pass — standard binding arbitration + class action waiver expected where a direct consumer relationship exists.
Data sharing
Not independently confirmed this pass with a specific named data-privacy lawsuit or breach. Carrier Global primarily serves institutional/business customers or, where it does reach individual consumers, typically through a simpler transactional relationship (a monthly service bill or a retail purchase) rather than an ongoing account relationship comparable to a bank or social media platform.
Fees and billing
Not itemized this pass.
Contacts
Privacy contact. Not recorded.
Legal notice. Not verified this pass. If publicly traded: SEC Form 10-K cover page gives the official corporate address; the Secretary of State business-entity search in the state of incorporation gives the registered agent, which must accept service. If private: the state registered agent is usually the only reliable route.
