Cancellation & data migration — transparent, no tricks.
You can end your Batteriepasswerk contract at any time. Because manufacturers are legally required to keep battery passports available for 15–25 years, we offer three clear options for what happens to your data afterwards — and nobody forces you to stay with us.
Three equal ways
No reason required. Pick whatever is easiest — we confirm every cancellation in writing within 24 hours, including the effective date.
Settings → Billing → Cancel subscription. One click, instant PDF confirmation.
Write to cancellation@batteriepasswerk.com with your customer number. Written confirmation within 24 hours.
Send to the address listed in our imprint — also available if you prefer formal written correspondence.
What happens right after cancellation
From the effective date, your account enters a 60-day transition mode. Plenty of time to plan calmly.
What happens to your passports afterwards?
Decide before the 60 days are up. Pick whichever fits your situation — we actively help with the handover.
Migration to another provider
Full export as JSON / AAS submodel per DIN DKE SPEC 99100 — standard-compliant and accepted by other passport solutions. We support actively with a handover checklist and a technical contact person.
Migration package €750 one-off · Export itself free
Archive plan (read-only)
Existing passports stay with Batteriepasswerk — read-only, no new creation. QR codes and role-based views keep working. Ideal if you no longer place new batteries on the market.
from €39/mo (≤ 5,000) · €99/mo (≤ 25,000) · custom
Lifetime archive (one-off)
One-time payment for guaranteed availability over 25 years. Data in the EU, with an annual integrity audit. Use this when you want to close the topic with no recurring fees.
€2.50 per archived passport · one-off
20 minutes of advice — free of charge.
Before you decide, we walk you through the legally cleanest option for your situation. No sales pitch, no pressure — we will also recommend migration to a different provider if that fits you better.
Four promises — direct and honest
What if Batteriepasswerk itself disappears?
As a manufacturer you are legally required to keep your passports available — even if your software vendor exits the market. That’s why we’ve set up a data escrow. Even in a worst case you don’t lose a single passport.
Encrypted backup to an independent escrow provider based in Germany. You keep control of the encryption keys.
In the event of insolvency you receive a full data export within 14 days in an open standard — directly from the escrow agent.
No proprietary formats. DIN DKE SPEC 99100 and AAS submodel — migratable to competitors or your own infrastructure at any time.
Annual integrity audit
An independent body confirms every year that the escrow backups are complete and readable. Pro and Enterprise customers receive the audit report on request.
