Thank you for purchasing a Particula product!

This policy applies solely to the hardware components of the following products (not including any accessories) purchased by you from Particula through its direct online sales channels (including Amazon, Kickstarter, Indiegogo), or through one of our certified distributors: GoChess product line, GoCube product line, GoDice (Full Pack and Family Pack), GoBalance product line, and Rubik’s Connected Pro (collectively, the “Products”).

One Year Limited Warranty

Particula warrants that the hardware components of the products shall be free of defects in material and workmanship under normal use for a period of one (1) year from the date of retail purchase directly from us or through our certified resellers (“Warranty Period”). Particula Ltd. shall be released from all obligations under this warranty policy in the event the product(s) have been subjected to misuse, neglect, accident, or improper installation.

Under this warranty, if a hardware defect arises and a valid claim (as determined by us after inspecting the product) is received by Particula Ltd. within the Warranty Period, at our discretion and to the extent permitted by law, we will either:

1. Repair the product at no charge, using new or refurbished replacement parts
2. Exchange the product with a new or refurbished product
3. Refund the original purchaser, subject to receipt of proof of purchase. These shall be your sole and exclusive remedies under this warranty policy 

Any repair or replacement of a product will be subject to the original Warranty Period (i.e., one year from the date of purchase directly from us or through our certified resellers). You, the customer, shall bear all shipping costs associated with the delivery of the defective product to an address specified by us (as per our instructions, based on each case and the relevant territory) and any tax-related costs. We will cover the shipping costs of the repaired product back to your shipping address, provided that any tax-related costs will be borne by you.

When a product or any part thereof is being replaced, the replacement item becomes your property and the replaced item delivered to us becomes our property.

Instructions to Obtain Warranty Service

Subject to applicable law, we may require that you furnish proof of purchase details and/or comply with our internal warranty procedures before receiving warranty service.

(including any affiliate thereof). The warranty provided by us does not apply to any other products than those specified in this policy (including any non-Particula products, or any software components).

We do not warrant that our services will be uninterrupted or provided error-free. We are not responsible for damage arising from failure to follow instructions relating to normal and intended use of the products.

What is Not Covered

• Accessories: Chess pieces, piece bags, carry bags, phone stands, and charging cables are not covered by the warranty.
• Particula shall not be liable for costs, damages, or damages to Mechanical, aesthetic, or functional of the product, incurred as a result of, due to, or from:
• Careless operation or handling, misuse, abuse, and/or lack of maintenance or use not in accordance with the respective User Guides.
• Use of the machine other than for normal purposes.
• Use of parts and accessories other than those produced or recommended by Particula.

If we determine that the damage is not caused by a manufacturing defect, we will notify you and let you know if repair services are available at cost or otherwise. Repair or service performed by any party other than Particula will void the warranty.

Extended Warranty Service

For those desiring an extra layer of protection, Particula offers the opportunity to purchase an Extended Warranty service alongside your product. This service extends the standard 1-year warranty by an additional year, providing coverage under the same conditions as the general one year warranty. 

If the warranty has expired, the Company will repair/offer for purchase any broken/defective parts of a product using new or replacement parts. After examining your product, our technician will confirm the total cost for repair along with the service charges. The customer will bear the shipping costs of sending and receiving the replacement parts.
