Appendix 1 – Device Warranty and Support

  1. Device Warranty

    1. We warrant on the terms set out in these Terms that each Device will be free from defects in material and workmanship for 12 months from that Device’s date of shipment (Device Warranty).
  2. Device Warranty Process

    1. If you consider that a Device is defective you must follow the process set out in this section 2 (Device Warranty Process).
    2. As a first step you must contact us (if you purchased SensorMine directly from us) or your Partner (if you purchased SensorMine through a Partner) to attempt to resolve the issue remotely.
    3. If the issue is not able to be resolved remotely you may return the Device to us for assessment. Before initiating a return, you must ensure that the Device is eligible to be covered under the Device Warranty.
    4. You must complete a Return Merchandise Authorisation (RMA) form in our required format and return the RMA with the Device, to enable us to track the return and process your Device Warranty claim. We may not be able to process your Device Warranty claim without an accurately completed RMA.
    5. The return of the Device to us is at your cost and risk. You must insure the Device during shipping and ensure that the Device is securely packed to prevent damage. Failure to ship the Device securely may void the Device Warranty.
    6. Upon receiving the Device and RMA form we will assess the Device within a reasonable period to determine if it is defective and, if so, whether the defect is covered under the Device Warranty. Our determination of whether a Device is defective and whether it is covered under the Device Warranty is final.
    7. If we determine that the Device is defective and that the defect is covered under the Device Warranty, we will ship you a replacement Device at our cost and risk.
    8. If we determine that either the Device is not defective or that it is not covered by the Device Warranty, we will notify you. You will then have the option of:

      1. having the original Device shipped back to you at your expense;  
      2. purchasing a replacement Device and having it shipped to you at your expense; or
      3. not having any Device shipped to you.
    9. If you elect to have the original Device or a replacement Device shipped to you, we will ship that Device to your nominated location at your expense, provided that location is within a metropolitan area (unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing).
    10. We will not ship a replacement Device to you until any charges for the replacement Device have been paid in full.
    11. Where we ship the original or a replacement Device to you, we will insure the shipment at your expense. Risk in the Device will pass to you when it is delivered to your nomination location, as evidenced by a signed delivery receipt.
  3. Warranty Devices

    1. If you are eligible to receive Warranty Devices, those Warranty Devices will be shipped on the same terms as the other Devices in the applicable order.
    2. You may use Warranty Devices to replace Devices which are proceeding through Device Warranty Process.
    3. Where we determine that at least 75% of provided Warranty Devices have been used to replace defective Devices, we may, in our discretion, provide sufficient additional Warranty Devices to replace the Warranty Devices that have been used, which will be shipped on the same terms as the initial Warranty Devices.
    4. Before the end of the Subscription Period you will be given the option, by us directly or by your Partner, of:

      1. purchasing any remaining Warranty Devices in your possession at an agreed price; or
      2. returning any remaining Warranty Devices to us at your risk and expense.

      Where you purchased SensorMine through a Partner, it is your Partner’s, and not our, responsibility to contact you about these options.

    5. If you do not select and action an option before your Subscription Period expires, then you will be deemed to have accepted the option in section 3.4(a) and you will be charged accordingly.
    6. If you (or anyone on your behalf):

      1. deploy a Warranty Device as a new SensorMine deployment, rather than as a replacement for a defective Device; or
      2. otherwise deploy more than the number of Devices or BYO Devices stated in your SensorMine order(s) with us or your Partner (as applicable),
        then we may:
      3. increase your SensorMine Fee to account for the additional deployments; and/or
      4. restrict your excess usage.
    7. All Devices (including defective Devices and Warranty Devices) that are returned to us become our property.
  4. Exclusions

    1. You are not entitled to Device support, and the Device Warranty will not apply, in relation to any defects or issues resulting from or attributable to:

      1. any of the events listed in clause 18.2;
      2. any accident, negligence, abuse, tampering with, damage to, or misuse or opening of a Device;
      3. installation, use, repair, maintenance or modification of a Device other than in accordance with the SensorMine documentation or our express instructions;
      4. a Device’s battery, including configuration or other use that excessively drains a Device’s battery or causes premature battery depletion;
      5. failure to comply with environmental and storage requirements as set out in our SensorMine documentation or our express instructions;
      6. use of SensorMine for personal, domestic or household purposes or consumption;
      7. use by you after notice from us to discontinue use a Device; and
      8. any form of damage caused during shipment of Device by you or on your behalf, including where caused by inadequate packaging.
    2. We will not be liable for any loss of production, system or equipment downtime or similar, or for any Consequential Loss, in relation to any defective Device, regardless of whether the defect is covered by Device Warranty.
    3. We are not responsible under the Terms, including under Device Warranty for your, your Partner’s or any other party’s software, firmware, information, or memory data contained in, stored on, or integrated with any Device.
  5. Consumer Laws

    1. You agree that you are not purchasing, and will not use, SensorMine for personal, domestic or household purposes or consumption or in any other way which may make SensorMine or your purchase or use of SensorMine subject to any consumer law applicable in the jurisdiction in which you purchased SensorMine or in which you use SensorMine.
