Warranty

HOW CONSUMER LAW RELATES TO THIS WARRANTY
THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM STATE TO STATE (OR BY COUNTRY OR PROVINCE). OTHER THAN AS PERMITTED BY LAW, VISUAL LAND DOES NOT EXCLUDE, LIMIT OR SUSPEND OTHER RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE, INCLUDING THOSE THAT MAY ARISE FROM THE NONCONFORMITY OF A SALES CONTRACT. FOR A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF YOUR RIGHTS YOU SHOULD CONSULT THE LAWS OF YOUR COUNTRY, PROVINCE OR STATE.


WARRANTY LIMITATIONS SUBJECT TO CONSUMER LAW
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THIS WARRANTY AND THE REMEDIES SET FORTH ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, REMEDIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER ORAL, WRITTEN, STATUTORY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. VISUAL LAND DISCLAIMS ALL STATUTORY AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND WARRANTIES AGAINST HIDDEN OR LATENT DEFECTS, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. IN SO FAR AS SUCH WARRANTIES CANNOT BE DISCLAIMED, VISUAL LAND LIMITS THE DURATION AND REMEDIES OF SUCH WARRANTIES TO THE DURATION OF THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY AND, AT VISUAL LAND'S OPTION, THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT SERVICES DESCRIBED BELOW. SOME STATES (COUNTRIES AND PROVINCES) DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY (OR CONDITION) MAY LAST, SO THE LIMITATION DESCRIBED ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.


WHAT IS COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY?
Visual Land warrants the Visual Land-branded hardware product and accessories contained in the original packaging (“Visual Land Product”) against defects in materials and workmanship when used normally in accordance with Visual Land's published guidelines for a period of ONE (1) YEAR from the date of original retail purchase by the end-user purchaser ("Warranty Period"). Visual Land’s published guidelines include but are not limited to information contained in technical specifications, user manuals and service communications.


WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY?
This Warranty does not apply to any non-Visual Land branded hardware products or any software, even if packaged or sold with Visual Land hardware. Manufacturers, suppliers, or publishers, other than Visual Land, may provide their own warranties to you – please contact them for further information. Software distributed by Visual Land with or without the Visual Land brand (including, but not limited to system software) is not covered by this Warranty. Please refer to the licensing agreement accompanying the software for details of your rights with respect to its use. Visual Land does not warrant that the operation of the Visual Land Product will be uninterrupted or error-free. Visual Land is not responsible for damage arising from failure to follow instructions relating to the Visual Land Product’s use.

This Warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as batteries or protective coatings that are designed to diminish over time, unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with another product; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external cause; (e) to damage caused by operating the Visual Land Product outside Visual Land’s published guidelines; (f) to damage caused by service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of Visual Land; (g) to a Visual Land Product that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of Visual Land; (h) to defects caused by normal wear and tear or otherwise due to the normal aging of the Visual Land Product, or (i) if any serial number has been removed or defaced from the Visual Land Product.


YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
YOU SHOULD MAKE PERIODIC BACKUP COPIES OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED ON THE VISUAL LAND PRODUCT STORAGE MEDIA TO PROTECT THE CONTENTS AND AS A PRECAUTION AGAINST POSSIBLE OPERATIONAL FAILURES.

Before receiving warranty service, Visual Land or its agents may require that you furnish proof of purchase details, respond to questions designed to assist with diagnosing potential issues and follow Visual Land's procedures for obtaining warranty service. Before submitting your Visual Land Product for warranty service you should maintain a separate backup copy of the contents of its storage media, remove all personal information that you want to protect and disable all security passwords.

DURING WARRANTY SERVICE THE CONTENTS OF THE STORAGE MEDIA WILL BE DELETED AND REFORMATTED. VISUAL LAND AND ITS AGENTS ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS OF SOFTWARE PROGRAMS, DATA OR OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED ON THE STORAGE MEDIA OR ANY OTHER PART OF THE VISUAL LAND PRODUCT SERVICED.

Following warranty service your Visual Land Product or a replacement device will be returned to you as your Visual Land Product was configured when originally purchased, subject to applicable updates. Visual Land may install system software updates as part of warranty service that will prevent the Visual Land Product from reverting to an earlier version of the system software. Third party applications installed on the Visual Land Product may not be compatible or work with the Visual Land Product as a result of the system software update. You will be responsible for reinstalling all other software programs, data and information. Recovery and reinstallation of other software programs, data and information are not covered under this Warranty.

Important: Do not open the Visual Land Product. Opening the Visual Land Product may cause damage that is not covered by this Warranty. Only Visual Land should perform service on this Visual Land Product.


WHAT WILL VISUAL LAND DO IN THE EVENT THE WARRANTY IS BREACHED?
If during the Warranty Period you submit a valid claim to Visual Land, Visual Land will, at its option, (i) repair the Visual Land Product using new or previously used parts that are equivalent to new in performance and reliability or (ii) replace the Visual Land Product with a device that is at least functionally equivalent to the Visual Land Product and is formed from new and/or previously used parts that are equivalent to new in performance and reliability.
