Your GPS pet tracker uses WiFi, BLE, or cellular connectivity to transmit location data to a companion app. Under Art. 1(1), any radio equipment that can communicate over the internet — directly or via any other equipment — must comply with Art. 3(3)(d). A tracker that sends GPS coordinates via BLE to a phone app which transmits them to a cloud server communicates indirectly over the internet. If the app requires a user account with name or email, the location data becomes personal data — Art. 3(3)(e) applies. REDCheck generates the 5 documents. 30 minutes. €99.

GPS trackers are radio equipment under Art. 2(1) of Directive 2014/53/EU — they intentionally emit and receive radio waves.
You enter your product specifications. REDCheck structures the cybersecurity documentation requirement by requirement, following the EN 18031 categories.
Art. 1(1) applies to ANY radio equipment that communicates over the internet. Product category is irrelevant. A $25 GPS pet tracker has the same documentation obligation as a $500 industrial gateway.
If the BLE tracker connects to a phone app that transmits data to a cloud server, the tracker communicates over the internet via any other equipment (Art. 1(1)). The indirect connection counts.
If the companion app links location data to a user account (name, email), the location data becomes personal data under GDPR Art. 4(1). The fact that the device is attached to a pet does not change the data classification.
