of  purchase  against  defects  in  the  build  materials  and  workmanship. 

Firetide does not warrant that the Products will meet any requirements 

or specifications of any End User Customer. This warranty applies to the 

entire Firetide product, including the AC power adapter.
Pursuant to all provisions described herein, Firetide software products 

are warranted for ninety (90) days from the date of purchase against 

defects in the build materials and workmanship. Firetide also warrants 

that the Software will materially conform to the documentation supplied 

by Firetide with the Software. In the event that the Software fails to 

materially  conform  to  the  documentation  and  an  authorized  Firetide 

reseller is notified in writing of such failure within the warranty period, 

Firetide  or  its  reseller  shall  use  commercially  reasonable  efforts  to 

promptly correct the nonconformity. Firetide does not warrant that the 

use of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. 
The above warranties are void if the alleged defect cannot be verified by 

Firetide or if, as determined by Firetide, the product failure was due to 

tampering, abuse, misuse, accident, shipping, handling, or storage; or 

if the product has been installed, used, or maintained in a manner not 

described in the product user manual; or if the product has been altered 

in any way; or if product serialization has been altered. Any attempt 

to  disassemble  or  repair  the  product  by  anyone  other  than  Firetide 

immediately voids this warranty.
This  warranty  applies  only  to  the  original  End  User  purchaser  of  the 

product and may not be transferred to any other individual or entity.

The foregoing are the exclusive warranties applicable to the 

product including the software, and the exclusive remedy for 

defects in the product. Firetide disclaims all other warranties,

non-infringement  or  fitness  for  a  particular  purpose.  Some 

laws do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties so to 

that extent this limitation may not apply to you.
