WARRANTY RETURNS
All warranty returns must be approved prior to returning to SimpleAccess™. In the event that any hardware component of a SimpleAccess product is not free from material defects or is found missing within a period of 1 year from purchase, SimpleAccess will repair or replace the hardware at its sole discretion. SimpleAccess™ will not cover labor or shipping expenses outside of the continental US.
SimpleAccess™ shall in no event be liable for incidental or consequential damages, including, without limitation, (i) electricity or fuel costs, (ii) labor costs associated with repairing, removing, installing or servicing the product or (iii) any other damages resulting from any defect in or malfunction of the product. SimpleAccess’s sole responsibility shall be to replace or repair products within the terms stated herein.
Warranty shipping expenses for any items shipped beyond the lower 48 continental United States are the sole responsibility of the customer.
DAMAGED PRODUCTS
Upon receipt of any product, customers must inspect the packaging for any signs of shipping damage. In the event of damage to the packaging, customers must immediately inspect the product for damage and have the delivery person sign on the delivery receipt that the item was damaged in shipping, or should refuse the shipment due to damage. Customers who note the damage on the delivery receipt and still accept the product can file a claim with the shipping company for credit at the shipping company's discretion. If products are shipped directly from us, then we will assist in the claims process but can not guarantee that credit will be issued.
If a product is found to be defective or missing parts, please contact us immediately. We will replace the item or ship out missing parts at no charge to the customer. Credit will not be given and up to a 15% restocking fee will apply if the customer is not willing to accept a replacement or missing parts.
