Limited Warranty
AMS Security warrants to you, the initial purchaser of the System from AMS Security that each of the AMS Security burglary alarm and monitored products you purchase directly from AMS Security that make up your AMS Security System (“Covered Products”, whether new or refurbished) will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service with this limited hardware warranty for the lifetime of the account if it remains active with no interruption. Upgraded options for systems are always available on completion of any existing monitoring agreement with signing of new monitoring agreement, the value of upgrade determined by length of agreement. This limited hardware warranty is, with your consent, transferable to a new person acting as account owner upon signing of a new monitoring agreement. As a condition of this warranty, AMS Security may require that you provide proof of purchase during the warranty period and/or return the defective Covered Product. If AMS Security requires the return of the defective Covered Product, return shipping costs will be paid for by AMS Security.
AMS Security may also offer additional hardware or subscription related product protection plans that are supplemental to this original limited hardware warranty. Unless specified otherwise, these supplemental programs would not go into effect until after the original limited hardware warranty expires; and where programs run concurrently, this initial limited hardware warranty would take precedence over any other programs during the initial limited hardware warranty period. Within this and any other warranty protection periods, AMS Security’s sole obligations shall be limited to accepting return of the defective product or part of the Covered Product and providing one or more of the following remedies, to be determined at AMS Security’s sole discretion:
• Replacement of Covered Products:
AMS Security may provide you with a substantially functional equivalent product or part to replace the defective item. Replacement products provided under this Limited Warranty may be new, repaired or reconditioned, at the sole option of AMS Security. AMS Security warrants any replacement products for an account lifetime warranty except whereas: Physical or water damage to main control consoles, repeated electrical faults not generated from the alarm system equipment, non-compliant installation location (main control console in non-temperature controlled environments), and for individual purchaser's who's accounts are no longer monitored unless they have purchased the warranty separately.
Additionally, in regards to the main control console of a burglary alarm or monitored system, if a Covered Product has been discontinued and/or the substantially functional equivalent available replacement product or part to be offered at reduced or no cost in exchange for an extended monitoring agreement. Some replacement control consoles in connection with this warranty may no longer be compatible with your System, at AMS Security’s sole discretion, AMS Security may offer you additional substantially functional equivalent replacement product(s) to address the compatibility issue. You understand and agree that this offer to replace other System components to address compatibility issues shall fully satisfy AMS Security’s remedy under this or any other applicable product warranty (to the extent this does not contradict or conflict with the terms thereof). If rejected, you will be deemed to have waived any other rights or remedies under this Limited Warranty.
• Refund or Credit:
At AMS Security’s sole option and discretion, in lieu of replacing the defective Covered Product, AMS Security may instead offer to refund the original purchase price you paid to AMS Security for the Covered Product. If the defective Covered Product does not have a separate purchase price, AMS Security shall determine a purchase price based upon the overall purchase price of any system that the defective Covered Product may have been a part of. Such determination shall be solely within AMS Security’s discretion. Subject to availability, and at AMS Security’s sole option and discretion, instead of refund you may select a credit of equal or greater value than the aforementioned refund value (to be determined by AMS Security), which may be applied toward other AMS Security products or services (to be determined by AMS Security). For the avoidance of doubt, if offered, the credit remedy option would be offered as an alternative to the refund remedy option, presented for your selection of one or the other. This refund or credit remedy option shall only be made available at AMS Security’s sole discretion and option.
For warranty service, please contact AMS Security Customer Support at support@amssecured.com or visit www.amssecured.com/support and click on “Contact Us”. If AMS Security is unable to address the issue that you are facing, AMS Security will, subject solely to its discretion, determine the appropriate warranty remedy or warranty remedy option, as listed above. As explained above, AMS Security may, at its discretion, require you return the Covered Product before AMS Security determines which warranty remedy option to provide. In this situation, AMS Security will provide you with a prepaid return slip for you to return your old product or part to AMS Security. In the event that AMS Security opts to send you a replacement product or part, as a remedy under this Limited Warranty and does not require prior return of such product or part as part of the warranty validation process, such replacement product or part may at AMS Security’s discretion still be shipped along with a postage prepaid return slip, and you will return your old product or part to AMS Security using such slip. Failure to return your old product or part in this instance may void any limited warranty on your replacement product or part, to be determined at AMS Security’s sole discretion.
This Limited Warranty does not apply in the following cases: misuse (which includes, without limitation, using products outdoors unless outdoor use is expressly permitted, and in such cases only as directed, and/or use in improper temperature, humidity or other environmental conditions), alteration, abuse, accident or tampering, or damage or non-performance resulting from use of any item or repair services not provided by AMS Security, as well as where your System or any component thereof is obtained from a third party other than AMS Security. This Limited Warranty also does not apply if damage was caused by Acts of God, natural disasters, labor disputes, war, terrorism, civil strife, or other causes beyond AMS Security’s control (including but not limited to changes impacting the performance, operation or sustainability of third-party communications and technology platforms, networks and protocols). Consumable parts, such as batteries or battery replacement, and adhesive tapes are excluded from this Limited Warranty. Products that are tested and found to be in good working condition (not defective) are not covered by this Limited Warranty.
Additional warranties or product protection plans may be offered if you purchase AMS Security products through an authorized retailer. These ancillary warranties are not provided by AMS Security and you should contact the authorized retailer from where you made your purchase to understand the terms of their offer and any protections.
