SCM Microsystems, Inc. LIMITED WARRANTY
SCM Microsystems, Inc. warranty obligations are limited to the terms set forth below:
SCM Microsystems, Inc., Retail Brands Group, ("The Company") warrants this product against defects in material and workmanship
for a period of one (1) year from the date of original retail purchase. For residents of the European Union, the warranty is two (2)
years from the original date of purchase
This limited warranty is made only to the original end user purchaser ("you") of the product and does not extend to any subsequent
purchasers or owners of the product. The "original end user" is the first user to put the product into service in any fashion, but the
term "original end user" shall exclude dealers. Dealers shall not be entitled to the benefits of the limited warranty.
It is your responsibility to establish the warranty period by verifying the original purchase date. Accordingly, to avoid dispute, you
should return the warranty card within ninety (90) days after the date of purchase.
If you discover a defect, The Company will, at its option, repair or replace this product with a new or reconditioned product at no
charge to you, provided you return it during the warranty period, with transportation charges prepaid. (You can obtain additional infor-
mation by contacting a Customer Service Representative at the telephone printed on the certificate.) In the event that an alternate
product is unavailable, The Company will refund the cost of goods at a pro-rated amount. To each product returned for warranty ser-
vice, please attach your name, address, telephone number, and a copy of the bill of sale bearing the appropriate serial numbers as
proof of date of original retail purchase, as well as a detailed description of the problem for which service is requested. Prior to
returning the product, you must obtain from The Company a Return Merchandise Authorization Number (RMA#). You are responsible
for packaging the product to be returned, and should take care that the product is packed in its original packaging. If the repairs are
covered by the Limited Warranty and if the product was properly shipped to The Company, The Company will pay the return shipping
charges.
This warranty applies only to hardware products manufactured by The Company that can be identified by The Company’s trademark,
trade name, or logo affixed to them. This warranty does not cover: damage resulting from accident, misuse, abuse, or neglect and/or
damage during any type of transportation resulting from improper packaging; damage to any product which has been altered in any
fashion, including the alteration or removal of any serial number; damage resulting from causes other than product defects, including
and not by way of limitation, lack of technical skill, competence, or experience of the user, and/or failure to use the product in accor-
dance with the instructions provided in the User’s Manual; and service performed by an unauthorized person or entity.
All computer software either sold and/or licensed to a purchaser or user is done so on an "as is" basis. The only warranties relating to

to the quality and performance of such software is with the purchaser or user. Should such software prove defective following its
purchase the purchaser or user, as the case may be (and not The Company) assumes the entire cost of all necessary servicing or

Any implied warranties including fitness for use and merchantability are limited in duration to the period of the expressed warranty
set forth above. The remedies provided under this warranty are exclusive and in lieu of all others.
The Company hereby expressly disclaims liability and shall not be responsible for incidental, consequential and contingent damages
of any kind or nature, including, without limitation: damages to persons or property, whether a claim for such damages is based upon
warranty, contract, tort or otherwise; damages due to or arising out of the loss of data; or lost profits.
The Company shall not be responsible for any damages caused by the presence of error or omission in any so-called "foreign lan-
guage version" of its manuals, instructions or related materials.
