Warranty Policy

ONE (1) YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY ON ELECTRONIC PRODUCTS; NINETY (90) DAY LIMITED WARRANTY ON NON-ELECTRONIC ACCESSORIES

 

What is Covered by This Limited Warranty?

ANKI LLC (“ANKI”) warrants the ANKI-branded hardware electronics product and accessories contained in the original packaging ("ANKI Product") against defects in materials and workmanship when used under ordinary consumer use in accordance with ANKI's published guidelines for a period of ONE (1) YEAR from the date of original retail purchase by the end-user purchaser ("Warranty Period"), or a period of NINETY (90) DAYS from purchase for non-electronic products and accessories such as apparel, subject to the exclusions herein. ANKI's published guidelines include but are not limited to information contained in technical specifications, user manuals and service communications.

What is Not Covered by This Warranty?

This warranty does not apply to any non-ANKI branded products or any software, even if packaged or sold with ANKI hardware. When an ANKI product is purchased from an unauthorized reseller or party, the ANKI warranty will not be valid. Manufacturers, suppliers, resellers, or publishers, other than ANKI, may provide their own warranties to you but ANKI, in so far as permitted by law, provides their products "AS IS". Software distributed by ANKI with or without the ANKI brand is not covered by this warranty. Please refer to the licensing agreement accompanying the software for details of your rights with respect to its use. ANKI does not warrant that the operation of the ANKI Product will be uninterrupted or error-free. ANKI is not responsible for damage arising from failure to follow instructions relating to the ANKI Product's use.

This warranty does not apply: (a) to user-serviceable consumable parts, such as batteries, unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with another product; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, neglect, misuse, liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external cause; (e) to damage caused by operating the ANKI Product outside ANKI's published guidelines, including unauthorized use, alteration, repair or commercial use; (f) to damage caused by service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of ANKI; (g) to an ANKI Product that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of ANKI; (h) to defects caused by normal wear and tear or otherwise due to the normal aging of the ANKI Product, or (i) if any serial number has been removed or defaced from the ANKI Product.

This limited warranty is not transferable or assignable to any subsequent purchaser or recipient of any ANKI Product.


 

How to Obtain Warranty or Repair Services

You may wish to access and review the online help resources at https://support.anki.bot  before seeking warranty service. You may also contact an ANKI Customer Care representative, using the information provided below. An ANKI Customer Care representative will help determine whether your ANKI Product requires service and, if it does, will inform you how ANKI will provide it.  ANKI Customer Care can be contacted by email to: support@anki.bot

ANKI Customer Care will ask you questions to determine your eligibility under this limited warranty, and may require that you furnish proof of purchase details, respond to questions designed to assist with diagnosing potential issues and follow ANKI's procedures for obtaining warranty service.

 If you are eligible, a replacement order, repair order or refund will be issued, and you’ll be given instructions for returning the defective ANKI Product.

If the ANKI Product proves defective during the warranty period, and you follow the instructions that will be provided to you for submitting a valid Warranty claim and returning the Product, ANKI will, at its option, take one of the following actions: (i) replace the ANKI Product with either a new or a refurbished  ANKI Product that is the same as or similar to the ANKI Product you purchased; (ii) repair the ANKI Product using either new or refurbished parts; or (iii) refund to you the purchase price of the ANKI Product. 

To the extent there is a problem with the ANKI Product that may be excluded from this limited warranty, you are still encouraged to contact ANKI Customer Care, who may be able to provide you with additional repair/replacement assistance, outside of the limited warranty coverage.  ANKI Customer Care may be able to provide you with technical support, and/or, for an additional repair/replacement fee, ANKI may: (i) send replacement parts to you to make the repairs yourself; (ii) repair the ANKI Product; or (iii) replace the ANKI Product.  ANKI reserves the right to change the method by which ANKI may provide warranty or repair service to you, and your ANKI Product's eligibility to receive a particular method of service. You may be responsible for shipping and handling charges depending on your location and the date of purchase. If you seek service in a country that is not the country of purchase, you will comply with all applicable import and export laws and regulations and be responsible for all custom duties, V.A.T. and other associated taxes and charges. For international service, ANKI may repair or replace products and parts with comparable products and parts that comply with local standards.

Following warranty or repair service, your ANKI Product or a replacement product will be returned to you as your ANKI Product was configured when originally purchased, subject to applicable updates. There is no assurance, representation or warranty that any replacement ANKI Product will be identical to or will offer the same functionalities as the ANKI Product returned to us. Technological advances and ANKI Product availability may result in your receiving a replacement ANKI Product with a lower selling price than the original ANKI Product you purchased. In all cases, ANKI Product comparability will be determined by us at our sole discretion.  Further, any and all information or data loaded onto your ANKI Product by you or any other end user is not warranted by ANKI. ANKI shall not recover the data when the ANKI Product is returned to us for warranty or repair service.  To obtain warranty or repair service, you authorize ANKI to delete all user information and data, and you expressly agree that ANKI shall not transfer to another device, or otherwise recover, any and all information and data loaded onto your ANKI Product.

ANKI may request that you replace certain user-installable parts or products. This limited warranty applies to any replacement or repair of an ANKI Product or part, including a user-installable part that has been installed in accordance with instructions provided by ANKI, for the remainder of the original warranty period or for 90 days from its shipment to you, whichever period is longer. All parts and ANKI Products that you return to us and for which we give you a refund or replacement will become ANKI’s property upon our receipt, and you agree that any unexpired part of this limited warranty on the replaced or refunded part or ANKI Product also transfers to us. Failure to ship the damaged part or ANKI Product back to us may result in your being charged for the replacement part or ANKI Product at full retail price.
