05-Aug-2022

The new revision of the IMDS Terms of Use Version 6.0 (IMDS ToU V6) will come into effect on September 12th, 2022.

According to the IMDS ToU change process IMDS users will get notified on the IMDS web pages and in addition by email 30 days before the activation when being asked to confirm the new ToU after login to IMDS. 

The major reason of the IMDS ToU revision is to allow IMDS registered companies (OEMs and suppliers) extended use of already existing IMDS information for legal requirements or regulatory obligations in sustainability, environmental and corporate social responsibility. A change of the IMDS functionality is not associated with it. However, in line with the IMDS enhancement requirements definition process, additional IMDS functionality might get implemented in future to support data collection for some of the listed requirements. The same applies for future changes of IMDS Recommendations where IMDS participating OEMs and supplier representatives jointly work together as well.  

Please take note that the IMDS participating OEMs and representatives from the supplier organizations (AIAG, CLEPA, JAPIA, PE) have commonly agreed on the new IMDS ToU V6.

Below you can find the IMDS ToU V6 document as such and the IMDS ToU V6 tracked changes document containing all changes marked in red color font for more details about modifications compared to the current version of the IMDS ToU. Besides the substantial changes in Chapter (6) Scope of Usage of Data all other modifications have editorial character, aim to be more precise or are legally required to add.

With the extension of IMDS data usage in the IMDS ToU V6 IMDS registered companies will be better positioned and authorized to reuse already existing IMDS material data or to benefit from related future enhancements.

On 03-May-2022 the current IMDS server SSL certificate will be replaced with a new version.

This is a routine change that occurred every second year in the past and will occur yearly in the future, reflecting the industry consensus to raise security by granting shorter lifespans to SSL certificates. If your company does not employ certificate pinning (https://www.digicert.com/dc/blog/certificate-pinning-what-is-certificate-pinning/) in its perimeter security setup, you do not need to do anything as the new certificate will simply work transparently for you, just like the old one. But if your company does employ certificate pinning, you need to validate the new certificate before 03-May-2021.

You can download the new certificate within the next few days here:
