Questions about the check.
Are my answers stored or transmitted?
No. The check runs entirely in your browser – no server transmission, no cookies, no tracking. Your answers only leave the browser if you yourself click the WhatsApp or email contact option at the end (they then appear in your message, which you can see and edit before sending).
How reliable is the verdict?
As honest as possible: the deadlines come from the Battery Regulation, the ESPR and the ESPR working plan (as of July 2026); expected dates are labelled as such. The readiness score is based on three core factors (data structure, identifiers, supply-chain data) – it is no substitute for a case-by-case review, but in our project experience it gets the order of magnitude right.
What if my product group is not listed?
Choose “Other / several” – the ESPR will eventually cover almost all physical products; only the date for your group is not set yet. In the first consultation we examine your exposure in detail, including via customer requirements.
Does the check cost anything?
No – neither money nor an email address. We believe an honest self-assessment is the best entry into a consulting conversation that is worthwhile for both sides.

Rather talk directly than click?
