This document is a confidentiality request submitted by Spin Master Toys Far East LTD. to the Application Examiner. The request pertains to the equipment certification application for the device with FCC ID PQN66817TX2G4. Spin Master Toys is seeking both permanent and short-term confidentiality for certain portions of the application, citing competitive advantages and protection of proprietary technology.
Specifically, the request for permanent confidentiality covers the schematics, detailed block diagrams, and the detailed operational/functional description of the device. Spin Master Toys argues that disclosing this information to competitors would significantly undermine their competitive edge and reveal unpublished, leading-edge technology.
In addition, Spin Master Toys is requesting short-term confidentiality for a period of 180 days from the date of the Grant of Equipment Authorization. This short-term confidentiality applies to test setup photos, external photos, internal photos, and the user manual. The rationale behind this request is to prevent competitors from gaining access to key aspects of the device's technology during the critical period of importation and distribution, thereby protecting Spin Master Toys' investment in research and development.
