Share your card's data to help build CPAPdata
Every CPAP model writes its card its own way. To read it without errors, we check every value on real cards. By sharing yours, anonymously, you help develop the reading of your machine for thousands of patients.
Why real cards
CPAPdata only lists a model as available once every value has been checked: nights, usage, events, pressures and leaks, compared one by one with the summary the machine writes itself and with OSCAR, the reference for over ten years. On the AirSense 10 that is 1.5 billion values, without a single difference. To develop the reading of your machine, we need the data of a real card.
Machines checked, and those waiting for cards
A model is verified when every value from real cards matches the machine's own summary and OSCAR.

Your data stays anonymous
- Your card holds neither your name, nor your address, nor your date of birth.
- As soon as we receive it, we erase the machine's serial number and file the card under a code, kept apart from your email address.
- It is used only to develop and check the reading of your model. It is never published, sold or shared with anyone.
- Only overall figures come out of it, for example: 330 nights out of 330 identical. Never your nights.
- It stays on our computers, in Europe, and you can ask for it to be deleted at any time with your code.
Frequently asked questions
Is my data really anonymous?
The card holds nothing that names you: no name, no address, no date of birth. It holds your nights and the machine's serial number, which we erase on receipt, then the card is filed under a code, apart from your email. Because your nights are still health data, we ask for your written consent anyway.
Will my machine keep working?
Yes. You copy the card without deleting anything, then put it back in the machine, which keeps recording as before.
My machine is not on the list
Send it anyway: every card helps, especially for rare models.
What do I get out of it?
Your model will be read sooner and accurately, and you will be among the first to access CPAPdata when accounts open.
