About Michelin simix Datasets
Why are the datasets encrypted?
For you, we propose time limited right to use. This requires a way to manage your digital licence and management of rights renewal. That’s the reason why the dataset is encrypted. Also, we attach particular importance to keep the data measured by our engineers confidential. To this end, that’s why we developed a data encryption system that enables Michelin to protect the work of their engineers who create the datasets. Find more information here.
