YOU SHOULD MAKE PERIODIC BACKUP COPIES OF THE DATA STORED ON YOUR HARD DRIVE OR OTHER STORAGE DEVICES AS A PRECAUTION AGAINST POSSIBLE FAILURES, ALTERATION, OR LOSS OF THE DATA. BEFORE RETURNING ANY HP HARDWARE PRODUCT FOR SERVICE, BE SURE TO BACK UP DATA AND REMOVE ANY CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY, OR PERSONAL INFORMATION. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LOCAL LAW, HP IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF ANY PROGRAMS, DATA, OR REMOVABLE STORAGE MEDIA.

Warranty Conditions

Warranty service has limitations. Some of those limitations include the following:

Warranty terms and conditions provide repair or replacement (at the discretion of HP) for defects in the manufacturer's material or workmanship. The warranty does not protect against accidental damage, loss, acts of nature, or any other event that did not originate during the manufacture of the product.

When HP repairs a product, the repair may be completed with new or previously used products, with parts equivalent to new in performance and reliability, or with equivalent products to an original product that has been discontinued.

HP is not responsible for the loss of data. It is prudent to have a backup plan for data.

Software support is available for applications that HP sells with a product or for applications that are pre-installed on an HP product, including operating systems. The length of time that support is available, and whether or not there is a fee for that support varies by product line. For information about software support for a specific HP product, review the warranty statement for the product.
It is possible to void the warranty on an HP product. Any failure caused by an unsupported or third-party component will not be covered by warranty. Opening a sealed component or sealed product will void the warranty. Examples of sealed components or sealed products include drives, monitors, and many handheld products. Opening the case will not void the warranty on products that are designed to be opened and upgraded, such as desktop or tower computers or servers.
