Terms and Conditions

A. Plan Overview
During the Term of the Plan, Epson America, Inc. (“Epson”), or its designee, will provide priority technical telephone support and other services described herein (“Service”) for the Epson Product for which Customer has purchased a Plan. Epson will use  commercially reasonable efforts to Service the Product in accordance with this Agreement.
Epson is the obligor of this Plan and the party that is financially and legally obligated to perform Service under this Agreement. Epson’s obligations under this Plan are backed by the full faith and credit of Epson, with its principal place of business located at 3131 Katella Ave., Los Alamitos, CA 90720, USA. Epson is the seller of this Plan, but if Customer purchased this Plan from an Epson dealer, that party is the seller of this Plan and Customer should keep the name and address of the dealer on file for Customer’s records.

B. Plan Fee
The fee for each Plan is payable in full before it will be activated. Customer is responsible for any taxes arising from the Service provided under this Agreement. See Section F for cancellation details and applicability of a refund.
C. Eligibility
This Plan is offered to and intended only for Epson’s commercial customers. It must be purchased before the expiration of the limited warranty included with the Product. The Plan is only available in the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico. Customer must be prepared to submit proof of original purchase of the Product.
Customer may purchase one (1) Plan if coverage for a single Product serial number does not exceed five (5) years from the initial Product purchase date. This Plan is not renewable.
Service coverage options may be available for Epson products that are older than five (5) years. Please contact Epson at 800-637-7661 to discuss alternative service options. At Epson’s discretion, products that older than five (5) years, may become eligible for service coverage if they pass an operational inspection (inspection fees apply). Nonoperational products may become eligible for service coverage if they pass an operational inspection after they have been repaired at Epson’s time and material rates. Repair estimates are available at Epson’s time and materials rates. Please contact Epson regarding eligibility questions.

D. How to Obtain Service

1. Call toll free 800-637-7661 between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Pacific Time, Monday through Friday. Support hours are subject to change without notice.
2. Customer will be asked to provide Epson with the model and serial number of the Product, the address where it is located, and a description of the problem.

E. Service and Limitations
Service described in this Agreement is separate from the limited warranty provided at the time of the Product’s original purchase. This Agreement does not modify the terms and conditions of that limited warranty.

1. What is Covered: At its sole discretion, Epson agrees to provide Service if the Product becomes inoperable or unable to perform according to Epson specifications due to defects in workmanship or materials during the Term of the Plan. No other coverage is included. This Agreement covers only hardware and mechanical failures related to the parts and components of the Product.

2. What Epson Will Do to Correct Problems: Should the Product become inoperable or unable to perform its function according to Epson specifications during the Term of the Plan, an Epson technician will work with Customer to resolve the problem and determine whether the Product requires hardware service. If so, at Epson’s sole discretion, repair or exchange will be used without charge for parts or labor.
   a. Repair: If Epson authorizes repair, Epson will direct Customer to send the Product to Epson or its authorized service center, where it will be repaired and sent back to Customer. Customer is responsible for packing the Product in original or equivalent packaging following the procedures described in the User’s Guide or documentation provided by Epson. When Service involves the exchange of the Product or a part, the item replaced becomes Epson’s property. The replacement product or part may be new or refurbished to the Epson standard of quality. Replacement products or parts assume the remaining Term of the Plan of the original Product covered by this Plan.
   b. Exchange: If Epson authorizes exchange instead of repair, Epson will ship a replacement product to Customer, freight prepaid, as long as Customer’s address is in the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico. (The replacement product will not include promotional materials, accessories, stands, documentation, manuals, software, or cables.) Customer must be able to receive, unpack, and install the replacement product, and prepare the defective Product for return shipment by following the procedures described in the User’s Guide or documentation provided by Epson. Customer is responsible for securely packing the defective unit and returning it to Epson within seven (7) working days of receipt of the replacement. Epson requires a debit or a credit card number to secure the cost of the replacement product if Customer fails to return the defective one. The replacement product assumes the remaining Term of the Plan of the original Product.

   n. Service if the Product label, logo, rating label, or serial number has been removed.

The Term of the Plan shall begin on the expiration date of the Epson limited warranty (“Plan Start Date”). Unless earlier terminated as provided herein, the Plan shall expire on the two (2)-year anniversary of such Plan Start Date.

1. Customer may not assign or transfer this Agreement without the prior and express written consent of Epson. Please contact Epson (email customer.inquires@ea.epson.com or call 562-276-1305) to request consent. Any other purported transfer or assignment shall be void.

2. The right to cancel only applies to the original purchaser of this Plan and may not be transferred or assigned.

3. Customer may cancel this Plan by submitting a cancellation request in writing to the Epson dealer that sold Customer this Plan, or if this Plan was purchased directly from Epson to ATTN: Preferred Plus Cancellation, PO Box 93012, Long Beach, CA 90809-9941, USA.
   a. Cancellation of Plans: If Customer’s written notice of cancellation is received on or before the thirtieth day after the Plan Start Date, Customer will receive a 100% refund minus the cost of any Service provided. Service costs shall be determined based on Epson’s time and materials rates. If a written notice of cancellation is not received by the thirtieth day following the Plan Start Date, there is no refund.

In that case, Epson shall provide Customer with a written notice no fewer than 30 days prior to such cancellation at Customer’s last known address, with the effective date for the cancellation and the reason for cancellation.

ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION, ENFORCEMENT, INTERPRETATION, OR VALIDITY THEREOF, INCLUDING THE DETERMINATION OF THE SCOPE OR APPLICABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, SHALL BE DETERMINED BY ARBITRATION IN ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, BEFORE ONE ARBITRATOR. THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE ADMINISTERED BY JAMS  PURSUANT TO ITS COMPREHENSIVE ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES OR PURSUANT TO JAMS’ STREAMLINED ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES, AS APPLICABLE. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL FOLLOW ANY APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW AND CALIFORNIA STATE LAW IN RENDERING AN AWARD. JUDGMENT ON THE AWARD MAY BE ENTERED IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION.

H. REMEDIES; DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
EPSON’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE LIABILITY AND YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR EPSON’S FAILURE TO PERFORM IS THAT EPSON WILL, AT EPSON’S OPTION, REPERFORM THE SERVICE. THE WARRANTY AND REMEDY PROVIDED ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND THE IMPLIED WARRANTY AGAINST INFRINGEMENT. SOME LAWS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY, THEN ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED TO THE TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT.
