Warranty

CIPHERTEX warrants the Product to be free of material defects and errors that prevent normal operation. On receipt of notice of such defect or error from Customer, CIPHERTEX shall, at its own expense, exercise commercially reasonable efforts to modify the Product, upgrade the Product, or suggest an alternate procedure or routine which eliminates the adverse effect of the defect or error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CIPHERTEX shall be relieved from any such obligation if Customer fails to give CIPHERTEX a timely written notice of any error claimed, and the delay causes further damage to Customer.

CIPHERTEX makes no warranty or representation, expressed, implied, or statutory, with respect to its products or the contents or use of this documentation and all accompanying software, and specifically disclaims its quality, performance, merchantability, or fitness for any particular purpose.

Under no circumstances is Ciphertex liable for the following: (1) third-party claims against you for damages; (2) loss of, or damage to, your records or data; or (3) economic consequential damages (including lost profits or savings) or incidental damages even if we are informed of their possibility.

Recent research has shown that as many as 87% of commercially available SSD’s, including Enterprise drives, are subject to various forms of failure due unexpected power loss. This includes some units with built-in power loss protection. These failures range from simple Data bit corruption to complete device failure (dead unit). Because of this, Ciphertex does not assume any liability, beyond the standard product warranty, for Data loss or hardware failure for any product incorporating SSD technology.

Users are advised to Backup critical or important Data often in order to avoid experiencing unexpected Data loss in products using SSD technology. Users are also advised to always properly “Remove” or “Dismount” any storage device product from the operating system, prior to disconnecting or removing power, in order to minimize the possibility of product failure.
