Guarantee exclusion and limitations
The guarantees specified here are representative of all conditions and guarantees, expressed,
implied or legal, including, however not limited to, all implied conditions or guarantees with regard to
the marketability or suitability for a certain purpose on the part of Fujitsu Siemens Computers and its
subsidiaries, suppliers and resellers. All implied or legal conditions and guarantees, inasmuch as
they cannot be excluded, are limited as described here. If the product demonstrates defects in the
material or workmanship, the original purchaser has the sole claim to the repair or replacement of
the product under the conditions described above. Should this be unsuccessful, Fujitsu Siemens
Computers reserves the right to refund the purchase price for the product to the original purchaser,
provided the purchaser returns the product. Unless prohibited by law, Fujitsu Siemens Computers
and its subsidiaries, suppliers, service providers or resellers shall not be liable in any way for
damage, including, however not limited to, direct, indirect or accidental damage, subsequent
damage, loss of the possibility of use or data loss, the loss of profits or interruptions in operations,
regardless of whether such damages claimed are based on a guarantee, provisions, impermissible
actions or a contract (including the failure to observe a clause on which they are based). Unless
prohibited by law, this contract defines the exclusive guarantee of the original purchaser limited in
writing. Some countries do not permit exceptions or restrictions of implied guarantees, accidental
damage or subsequent damage, and therefore the restrictions described above may possibly be
inapplicable in those countries.
Data storage media
For you, the purchaser, the only effective protection of the data stored on a computer, for example
on a hard disk, lies in making a backup copy of the data at regular intervals. Fujitsu Siemens
Computers and its subsidiaries, suppliers, service providers and resellers are not responsible for the
software programs, data and other information stored or used on a medium or part of a product that
has been returned to Fujitsu Siemens or its service providers for guarantee or other repair purposes
including, however not limited to, the costs for the restoration of such programs, data or other
information. It is solely your responsibility as the purchaser to make a backup copy of the software
programs, data or other information stored on a storage medium or other part of a product when you
return the product to Fujitsu Siemens Computers or its service providers for guarantee purposes or
for repair.
