TOSHIBA Service Station
TOSHIBA Service Station
The TOSHIBA Service Station helps you keep your new computer 
running at its best by notifying you when updated software, 
firmware, documentation or other information is available for your 
computer. The TOSHIBA Service Station will alert you when 
updates are available, and you can then choose to install the updates 
if you wish.
TOSHIBA PC Health Monitor
The TOSHIBA PC Health Monitor software program monitors 
computer system functions such as power consumption, the cooling 
system and the 3D Accelerometer (available on certain models). It 
alerts users to specific system conditions via pop-up messages. It 
also tracks the usage of the computer and related devices and logs 
service-relevant information on the computer's internal storage 
drive.
The collected information includes device operation time and 
number of actuations or status changes (e.g.: number of power 
button and 
Fn
 key combination uses, and AC adaptor, battery, LCD, 
fan, HDD, sound volume, wireless communication switch, docking 
and USB information), date of initial system use, and also computer 
and device usage (e.g.: power settings, battery temperature and 
recharging, CPU, memory, backlight illumination time, and 
temperatures for various devices). The collected information is not 
limited to the examples specified here. The stored data uses a very 
small portion of the total hard disk capacity (approximately 3 MB 
or less per year).
This information is used to identify and provide a notification of 
system conditions that may affect the performance of your 
TOSHIBA computer. It may also be used to help diagnose problems 
should the computer require service by TOSHIBA or TOSHIBA's 
authorized service providers. Additionally, TOSHIBA may use this 
information for quality assurance analysis.
Subject to the use restrictions above, the data logged on the internal 
storage drive may be transferred to entities located outside of your 
country or region of residence (e.g., European Union). Those 
countries may or may not have the same data protection laws or 
data protection levels as required by your home country or region.
