The Plan.
This contract (the “Plan”) governs the services provided by Apple under the above-mentioned plan and includes the terms in this document, your Plan Confirmation (“Plan Confirmation”), and the original sales receipt for your Plan. Your Plan Confirmation will be provided to you at the time of purchase or sent to you automatically thereafter. If you purchased your Plan from Apple, you may obtain a copy of your Plan Confirmation by going to mysupport.apple.com/products. Benefits under this Plan are additional to your rights under applicable laws, the manufacturer’s hardware warranty, and any complimentary technical support. The terms of the Plan apply the same whether for a fixed term of coverage (“Fixed- Term Plan”) or for a monthly recurring term of coverage (“Monthly Plan”), except where otherwise noted. Your Plan may be paid by you or a third party who finances or otherwise pays for your Plan (a “Plan Payment Provider”). This Plan covers the Apple Vision Pro listed on your Plan Confirmation (“Covered Device”) and the accessories contained in the original packaging (“Covered Equipment”). The Covered Equipment must have been purchased or leased as new from Apple or an Apple Authorised Reseller. Where legal ownership of the Covered Equipment has been transferred to You, the Plan must have been transferred to You according to Section 10. Covered Equipment includes any replacement product provided to You by Apple under sections 3.1 and 3.2 of this Plan. This Plan is intended to and does only apply to Your Covered Equipment. This Plan is not for Your commercial use and may not be used by You in furtherance of any private gain including, but not limited to, seeking service for devices owned by others and which are not covered by this Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, other than as provided under Section 10 of this Plan for transfers of Fixed-Term Plans, You may not sell, transfer, subcontract, delegate, or assign any of Your rights under this Plan. Apple has the right to monitor Your service requests to ensure compliance. Violation of this provision may void this Plan.
Plan Term and Renewal
Plan coverage begins when the Plan is purchased or when the Covered Device is shipped (if shipping is necessary – adjustments are made to account for shipping times) and continues, unless cancelled, through the date specified in your Plan Confirmation (the “Plan Term”). For Monthly Plans, your recurring Plan Term is one (1) month.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOUR MONTHLY PLAN WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW EVERY MONTH UNLESS AND UNTIL CANCELLED.

YOUR EXPRESS AND AFFIRMATIVE CONSENT ACKNOWLEDGING AND AGREEING WITH THE ABOVE PROVISION IS REQUIRED AND CAPTURED AS PART OF THE SALES PROCESS FOR RECURRING APPLECARE+ PLANS, AND SUCH CAPTURED AFFIRMATIVE CONSENT IS INCLUDED IN AND FORMS A PART OF THIS PLAN.

Each renewal will be at the original plan purchase price unless you are notified in advance of a price change by Section 11 of this plan. For Fixed- Term Plans, your Plan Term is fixed as set forth on your Plan Confirmation. Apple is not obligated to renew your Fixed-Term Plan. If Apple does offer to renew, Apple will determine the price and terms. For Monthly Plans and Fixed- Term Plans paid in installments (where available), you agree to have the credit card, debit card or other authorized payment source i.e. Apple Pay (the “Payment Source”) used for your initial Plan purchase (or your first Plan payment where not otherwise paid for by a Plan Payment Provider, group, membership, or promotional partner), kept on file to automatically charge in advance of the first day of each renewal term or installment billing period (as the case may be) following your initial payment or your first Plan payment where not otherwise paid for by a Plan Payment Provider, group, membership, or promotional partner. Alternatively, if Your Monthly Plan is linked to Your Apple ID, the payment source on file with your Apple ID will be automatically charged in advance of the first day of each renewal period following your initial payment or your first Plan payment where not otherwise paid for by a Plan Payment Provider, group, membership, or promotional partner and for each renewal period thereafter. For Plans provided as part of a group, membership, or promotional program, you may have the option to assume payment and continue the Plan when it expires or terminates or at the end of the promotional program period. If continuation is available and you elect to assume payment and continue the Plan (as a Monthly or Fixed-Term Plan), you agree to have the Payment Source kept on file as necessary with Apple or with the applicable group or membership to automatically charge in advance of the first day of each renewal or instalment period. If your Payment Source cannot be charged for any reason, and you have not otherwise made the appropriate renewal or instalment payment on time, your Plan coverage will cease from the due date. Apple has the right, but not the obligation, to accept any late payment and allow renewal from the date of late payment. For Monthly Plans only, if the price of your Monthly Plan is subject to change upon renewal, you will be notified in advance of any price increase, under Section 11 of this Plan.

What is Covered?
Hardware Service for Defects or Consumed Battery (“Hardware Service”)
If during the Plan Term, you submit a valid claim by notifying Apple that a defect in materials and workmanship has arisen in the Covered Equipment, or, where the capacity of the Covered Device’s battery that was contained in the original packaging to hold an electrical charge is less than eighty per cent (80%) of its original specifications, Apple will, at its discretion, either (i) repair the defect at no charge, using new parts or previously used genuine Apple parts that have been tested and pass Apple functional requirements, or (ii) exchange the Covered Equipment with a replacement product that is new or comprised of new and/or previously used genuine Apple parts and has been tested and passed Apple functional requirements. For the avoidance of doubt, Hardware Service for a battery whose capacity to hold an electrical charge is less than eighty per cent (80%) of its original specifications (i.e., a consumed battery) only applies to the battery that was contained in the original packaging with the Covered Device (or replacement thereof provided to You by Apple under sections 3.1 or 3.2 of this Plan) and not for batteries that were purchased separately. All replacement products provided under this Plan will have the same or substantially similar features (e.g., a different model, or the same model in a different color, with the same or enhanced technological or functional features or capabilities) as the original Covered Device or, at Apple’s option, the replacement product will be the same or more recent model but with different technological or functional features or capabilities as the original Covered Device or Apple will reimburse you for the costs toward the purchase of a replacement device currently available from Apple of like kind and quality (a “Comparable Replacement”) with a store credit, gift card, or check in the amount equal to Apple’s current retail price for the original Covered Device (or, if Apple does not currently sell the Covered Device model, the retail price at which Apple last sold the Covered Device model) or the amount paid for the Covered Device as shown on an authenticated copy of the Covered Device’s original proof of purchase, whichever is greater. If Apple exchanges the Covered Equipment, the original product becomes Apple’s property and the replacement product is your property, with coverage effective for the remainder of the Plan Term. Apple may use Covered Devices or replacement parts for services that are sourced from a country that is different from the country from which the Covered Device or original parts were sourced.
Services for Accidental Damage from Handling (“ADH Service”)
If during the Plan Term you submit a valid claim notifying Apple that the Covered Device has failed due to accidental damage from handling resulting from an unexpected and unintentional external event (e.g., drops and damages caused by liquid contact from spills) (“ADH”), Apple will, at its discretion and subject to the service fee described below, either (i) repair the defect using new or previously used genuine Apple parts that have been tested and pass Apple functional requirements, or (ii) exchange the Covered Device with a replacement product that is new or comprised of new and/or previously used genuine Apple parts and has been tested and passed Apple functional requirements. If Apple exchanges the Covered Equipment, the original product becomes Apple’s property and the replacement product is your property with coverage effective for the remainder of the Plan Term.
Exclusions apply as described below
Each time you receive services for ADH is a “Service Event.” You are eligible to receive unlimited Service Events for your Covered Device while the Plan is active, up to the date the Plan is cancelled or otherwise terminated. Requests for Service Events submitted and received by Apple after the Plan has been cancelled or terminated will not be covered by the Plan. Important: Please refer to Section 4 for exclusions on the provision of ADH Service. The following service fees apply to each Service Event:

Fees exclude applicable taxes payable by you

To qualify for the Tier 1 ADH Service Event fee, the Covered Equipment must have no additional damage beyond the Included Accessories that would prevent Apple from replacing and/or repairing the Included Accessories. Covered Equipment with additional damage will be charged the price of the Tier 2 ADH Service Event fee. Please note that if you seek service under this Plan in a country other than the United States, if available, any service fees or local equivalent fees may need to be paid in that country’s currency and at that country’s applicable rate – for further details please visit apple.com/legal /sales-support/applecare/applecareplus/ and select the appropriate device and location in which you seek service to view the applicable terms and fees.

Technical Support

During the Plan Term, Apple will provide you with priority access to telephone and web-based technical support for Covered Equipment (“Technical Support”). Technical Support may include assistance with installation, launch, configuration, troubleshooting, and recovery (excluding data recovery), including storing, retrieving, and managing files; interpreting system error messages; and determining when hardware service is required or ADH coverage may be applicable. Apple will provide support for the then-current version of the supported software, and the prior Major Release. For purposes of this section, the term “Major Release” means a significant version of the software that is commercially released by Apple in a release number format such as “1.0” or “2.0” and which is not in beta or pre-release form. Apple Technical Support is limited to the following: (i) the Covered Equipment, (ii) the Apple-branded Operating System (“VisionOS”) and Apple-branded software applications that are pre-installed on or designed to operate with the Covered Equipment (“Consumer Software”), and (iii) and connectivity issues between the Covered Equipment and a computer or device that meets the Covered Equipment’s connectivity specifications and runs an operating system supported by the Covered Equipment. Exclusions apply as described below.

Service Options.
Apple will provide Hardware or ADH Service to you through one or more of the following options:

• Carry-in service. Return the Covered Equipment to an Apple-owned retail store location or to an Apple Authorized Services Provider (“AASP”) that offers carry-in service. Service will be performed for you at the store, or the store may send the Covered Equipment to an Apple Repair Service (“ARS”) site for service. You must promptly retrieve the Covered Equipment.

• Mail-in service. If Apple determines that your Covered Equipment is eligible for mail-in service, Apple will send you prepaid waybills (and, if needed, packaging material).

Apple will pay for shipping to and from your location if you follow all instructions.

• Express Replacement Service (“ERS”) or do-it-yourself (“DIY”) parts service. If Apple requires the return of the replaced device or part, Apple may require a credit card authorization to serve as security for the retail price of the replacement device or part and applicable shipping costs until you return the replaced device as instructed. If you are not able to provide credit card authorization, service may not be available to you in which case Apple will offer an alternative arrangement for service. If you fail to return the replaced device or part as instructed or return a replaced device or part that is ineligible for service, Apple will charge the credit card for the authorized amount. If only a part of your Covered Equipment needs service, Apple may instruct you to return only the impacted part (i.e., if only the enclosure needs service, you may not need to send the battery too). Apple will return parts that do not need service. If Apple does not require the return of the replaced device or part, Apple will ship you free of charge a replacement device or part accompanied by any applicable instructions or requirements for the disposal of the replaced device or part.
