The month beyond which no security patch update is guaranteed for each device model is publicly communicated at www.hmd.com/security-updates. The number of updates that will be made available for each Eligible Model (as defined in section 2.4) can be informed by HMD upon request.
2.2 The Additional Updates are targeted to be delivered on a quarterly basis, thus extending the device security update protected lifecycle by approximately one year. Each Additional Update will be made available by HMD once it has passed Google’s testing for such security patch updates and has been tested by HMD for delivery.
2.3 The Additional Updates are delivered to each device for which the Services have been enabled based on IMEI targeting OTA (over-the-air) and by using Google Over the Air Server (GOTA) or HMD FOTA infrastructure in the same way as any other security patch update for HMD devices. Devices must have WLAN connection for a successful download of the Additional Update. Cellular data connection may also be used if user accepts installation over their own cellular data connection, or if local update settings are defined to push security patch updates over cellular network. Upon notification of a new security patch being available for the applicable device, user is responsible for installing the updates by either accepting installation or rebooting the device, which automatically installs the new security patch update.
