provides no warranty to Refurbished Product sold as "as is" or with "no warranty" on Online Store.
3.2 Exclusive Remedy. If Customer gives notice of noncompliance with any of the warranties set forth in Section 3.1 within
the applicable Warranty Period in the manner set forth below, then, upon verification of the noncompliance by Synology,
Synology will, at Synology's option: (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to repair the Product, or (b) replace the
noncomplying Product or part thereof upon return of the complete Product in accordance with Section 3.3 The foregoing
sets forth Synology's entire liability and Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of warranty under Section
3.1 or any other defect or deficiency in the Product. Customer will reasonably assist Synology to diagnose and validate any
nonconformity with the Product. The warranty set forth in Section 3.1 does not include: (1) any warranty relating to the
Software; (2) physical installation or removal of the Product from Customer's site; (3) visits to Customer's site; (4) labor
necessary to effect repairs or replace defective parts other than during Synology's or its contracted service providers'
normal local business hours, exclusive of weekends and service providers’ holidays; (5) any work with any third party
equipment or software; (6) any warranty of the hard disk if installed by Customer or any other third party; or (7) any
warranty of compatibility with the hard disk.
3.3 Return. Any Product returned by Customer under Section 3.2 must be assigned a Return Merchandise Authorization
("RMA") number by Synology before shipment and must be returned in accordance with Synology's then current RMA
procedures. Customer may contact any authorized Synology distributor or reseller or Synology Support to obtain
assistance in obtaining an RMA, and must provide proof of purchase and product serial number when asking for such
assistance. For warranty claims, Customer must return the complete Product to Synology in accordance with this Section
3.3 to be eligible for coverage under this Warranty. Any Product returned without an RMA number, or any Product that has
been disassembled (except under the direction of Synology) will be refused and returned to Customer at Customer's
expense. Any Product that has been assigned a RMA number must be returned in the same condition as it was received
from Synology to the address designated by Synology, freight pre-paid, in packaging sufficient to protect the contents
thereof and with the RMA number prominently displayed on the outside of the box. Customer is responsible for insurance
and risk of loss with respect to returned items until they are properly received by Synology. A Product with a RMA number
must be returned within fifteen (15) days after issuance of the applicable RMA number.
3.4 Replacement by Synology. If Synology elects to replace any Product under this Warranty set forth in Section 3.1, then
Synology will ship a replacement Product at Synology's expense via the shipping method selected by Synology after
receipt of the nonconforming Product returned in accordance with Section 3.3 and validation by Synology that the Product
does not conform to the warranty. In some countries, Synology may at its own discretion apply the Synology Replacement
Service to certain Products, through which Synology will ship a replacement Product to Customer before its receipt of the
nonconforming Product returned by Customer ("Synology Replacement Service").
3.5 Support. During the Warranty Period, Synology will make available to Customer the support services. Following the
expiration of the applicable Warranty Period, support for Products may be available from Synology upon written request.
3.6 Exclusions. The foregoing warranties and warranty obligations do not apply to any Product that (a) has been installed
or used in a manner not specified or described in the Product specifications; (b) has been repaired, modified or altered by
anyone other than Synology or its agent or designee; (c) has been in any way misused, abused, or damaged; (d) has been
used with items not provided by Synology other than the hardware or software for which the Product is designed; or (e)
otherwise fails to conform to the Product specifications and such failure is attributable to causes not within or under
Synology's control. Further, the foregoing warranties will be void if (1) Customer disassembles the Product except as
authorized by Synology; (2) Customer fails to implement any correction, modification, enhancement, improvement or other
update made available to Customer by Synology; or (3) Customer implements, installs or uses any correction, modification,
enhancement, improvement or other update made available by any third party. The warranty set forth in Section 3 will
terminate upon Customer's sale or transfer of the Product to a third party.
3.7 Disclaimer of Warranties. THE WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS, AND LIABILITIES OF SYNOLOGY AND THE
REMEDIES OF CUSTOMER SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN SUBSTITUTION FOR, AND
CUSTOMER HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES AND DISCLAIMS, ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS AND
LIABILITIES OF SYNOLOGY AND ALL OTHER RIGHTS, CLAIMS AND REMEDIES OF CUSTOMER AGAINST
SYNOLOGY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARISING BY LAW OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCT,
ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTATION OR SOFTWARE AND ANY OTHER GOODS OR SERVICES DELIVERED UNDER
THIS WARRANTY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY: (A) IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE; (B) IMPLIED WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF
PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, OR USAGE OF TRADE; (C) CLAIM OF INFRINGEMENT OR
MISAPPROPRIATION; OR (D) CLAIM IN TORT (WHETHER BASED ON NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT
LIABILITY OR OTHER THEORY). SYNOLOGY MAKES NO GUARANTEE AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY
WARRANTY THAT THE DATA OR INFORMATION STORED ON ANY SYNOLOGY PRODUCT WILL BE SECURE AND
WITHOUT RISK OF DATA LOSS. SYNOLOGY RECOMMENDS THAT CUSTOMER TAKES APPROPRIATE MEASURES
TO BACK UP THE DATA STORED ON THE PRODUCT. SOME STATES/JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW
LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO CUSTOMER.
Section 4. Limitations of Liability
4.1 Force Majeure. Synology will not be liable for, or be considered to be in breach of or default under this Warranty on
account of, any delay or failure to perform as required by this Warranty as a result of any cause or condition beyond its
reasonable control (including, without limitation, any act or failure to act by Customer).
4.2 Disclaimer of Certain Damages. IN NO EVENT WILL SYNOLOGY OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR THE COST
OF COVER OR FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SIMILAR DAMAGES
OR LIABILITIES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, INFORMATION, REVENUE,
PROFIT OR BUSINESS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT, ANY
ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTATION OR SOFTWARE AND ANY OTHER GOODS OR SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER
THIS WARRANTY, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR
OTHER THEORY EVEN IF SYNOLOGY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
4.3 Limitation of Liability. SYNOLOGY'S AND ITS SUPPLIERS' LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE
USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT, ANY ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTATION OR SOFTWARE AND ANY
OTHER GOODS OR SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID
BY CUSTOMER FOR THE PRODUCT REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES CUSTOMER MAY INCUR AND
WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER THEORY. The
foregoing disclaimer of certain damages and limitation of liability will apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law. The laws of some states/jurisdictions do not allow exclusion or limitation of certain damages. To the extent that those
laws apply to the Product, the exclusions and limitations set forth above may not apply to Customer.
Section 5. Miscellaneous
5.1 Proprietary Rights. The Product and any accompanying Software and documentation provided with the Product include
proprietary and intellectual property rights of Synology and its third party suppliers and licensors. Synology retains and
reserves all right, title, and interest in the intellectual property rights of the Product, and no title to or ownership of any
intellectual property rights in or to the Product, any accompanying Software or documentation and any other goods
provided under this Warranty is transferred to Customer under this Warranty. Customer will (a) comply with the terms and
conditions of the Synology end user license agreement accompanying any Software furnished by Synology or an
authorized Synology distributor or reseller; and (b) not attempt to reverse engineer any Product or component thereof or
accompanying Software or otherwise misappropriate, circumvent or violate any of Synology's intellectual property rights.
5.2 Assignment. Customer will not assign any of its rights under this Warranty directly, by operation of law or otherwise,
without the prior written consent of Synology.
5.3 No Additional Terms. Except as expressly permitted by this Warranty, neither party will be bound by, and each party
specifically objects to, any term, condition or other provision that conflicts with the provisions of this Warranty that is made
by the other party in any purchase order, receipt, acceptance, confirmation, correspondence or otherwise, unless each
party specifically agrees to such provision in writing. Further, if this Warranty conflicts with any terms or conditions of any
other agreement entered into by the parties with respect to the Product, this Warranty will prevail unless the other
agreement specifically references the sections of this Warranty that it supersedes.
5.4 Applicable Law. Unless explicitly prohibited by local law, this Warranty is governed by the laws of the State of
Washington, U.S.A. for the Customers residing within the United States; and by the laws of the Republic of China (Taiwan)
for Customers not residing within the United States, without regard to any conflict of law principles to the contrary. The
1980 U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods or any successor thereto does not apply.
5.5 Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Warranty, the Product or services
provided by Synology with respect to the Product or the relationship between Customers residing within the United States
and Synology will be resolved exclusively and finally by arbitration under the current commercial rules of the American
Arbitration Association, except as otherwise provided below. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator,
and will be limited solely to the dispute between Customer and Synology. The arbitration, or any portion of it, will not be
consolidated with any other arbitration and will not be conducted on a class-wide or class action basis. The arbitration shall
be held in King County, Washington, U.S.A. by submission of documents, by telephone, online or in person as determined
by the arbitrator at the request of the parties. The prevailing party in any arbitration or legal action occurring within the
United States or otherwise shall receive all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, including any arbitration fee paid by the
prevailing party. Any decision rendered in such arbitration proceedings will be final and binding on the parties, and
judgment may be entered thereon in any court of competent jurisdiction. Customer understands that, in the absence of this
provision, Customer would have had a right to litigate any such dispute, controversy or claim in a court, including the right
to litigate claims on a class-wide or class-action basis, and Customer expressly and knowingly waives those rights and
agrees to resolve any disputes through binding arbitration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.5. For
Customers not residing within the United States, any dispute, controversy or claim described in this section shall be finally
resolved by arbitration conducted by three neutral arbitrators in accordance with the procedures of the R.O.C. Arbitration
Law and related enforcement rules. The arbitration shall take place in Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C., and the arbitration
proceedings shall be conducted in English or, if both parties so agree, in Mandarin Chinese. The arbitration award shall be
final and binding on the parties and may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be
deemed to prohibit or restrict Synology from seeking injunctive relief or seeking such other rights and remedies as it may
have at law or equity for any actual or threatened breach of any provision of this Warranty relating to Synology's intellectual
property rights.
5.6 Attorneys' Fees. In any arbitration, mediation, or other legal action or proceeding to enforce rights or remedies under
this Warranty, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled, costs
and reasonable attorneys' fees.
5.7 Export Restrictions. You acknowledge that the Product may be subject to U.S. export restrictions. You will comply with
all applicable laws and regulations that apply to the Product, including without limitation the U.S. Export Administration
Regulations.
5.8 Severability. If any provision of this Warranty is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Warranty will remain in full force and effect.
5.9 Entire Agreement. This Warranty constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes any and all prior agreements,
between Synology and Customer related to the subject matter hereof. No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the
provisions of this Warranty will be valid unless set forth in a written instrument signed by the party to be bound thereby.
