allowing them to control your MaxiSys tablet on their PC via the TeamViewer software.

Computers and mobile devices that run TeamViewer are identified by a globally unique
ID. The first time the Remote Desk application is started, this ID is generated
automatically based on the hardware characteristics and will not change.

application, so that the tablet is able to receive remote support from the third party.
