Warranty
Digital Security Controls warrants the original purchaser that for a period of twelve months from the date of purchase, the product shall be free of defects
in materials and workmanship under normal use. During the warranty period, Digital Security Controls shall, at its option, repair or replace any defective
product upon return of the product to its factory, at no charge for labour and materials. Any replacement and/or repaired parts are warranted for the

absolutely no warranty on software and all software products are sold as a user license under the terms of the software license agreement included with the
product. The Customer assumes all responsibility for the proper selection, installation, operation and maintenance of any products purchased from DSC.
Custom products are only warranted to the extent that they do not function upon delivery. In such cases, DSC can replace or credit at its option.
International Warranty
The warranty for international customers is the same as for any customer within Canada and the United States, with the exception that Digital Security
Controls shall not be responsible for any customs fees, taxes, or VAT that may be due.
Warranty Procedure
To obtain service under this warranty, please return the item(s) in question to the point of purchase. All authorized distributors and dealers have a
warranty program. Anyone returning goods to Digital Security Controls must first obtain an authorization number. Digital Security Controls will not
