- ZEMECS’s inspection of a Product in response to a Warranty claim shall not constitute acceptance or acknowledgment of the validity of such claim. The Buyer shall prepay all transportation charges associated with the return.

- Under no circumstances shall ZEMECS be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages, including but not limited to loss of use, loss of data, loss of revenue, loss of profits, or third-party claims. The Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold ZEMECS harmless from any liability arising from such claims. ZEMECS’s total liability shall be limited to proven direct damages and shall not exceed the purchase price of the Product concerned.
