Data Recovery Process and Service Efforts:

Any and all storage media provided to Drive Data Recovery may be opened for evaluation and diagnostics procedures. Devices such as iPods, iPads, iPhones, Mobile Phones, Netbooks, Notebooks, Laptops and other similar devices will also need to be opened in order to access the underlying storage media present within these storage devices. Client may wish to consult their individual manufacturer for specific warranty information on their storage media. In no circumstances shall Drive Data Recovery be held liable for voided warranties or damages that might be caused by the opening of these storage devices mentioned herein.

The Client hereby acknowledges and agrees that the diagnostic procedure is neither foolproof nor perfect. Even though the diagnosis furnished by Drive Data Recovery to the Client may indicate a strong probability of a successful recovery outcome, the Drive Data Recovery professional assessment of the Client’s storage media cannot guarantee that any specific result will be attained. No warranty is stated or implied in any way as to the accuracy of the assessment provided by Drive Data Recovery or the timeliness thereof. Drive Data Recovery shall have the exclusive professional determination as to the diagnostic assessment and the possible success rate at its’ sole discretion. Drive Data Recovery agrees to use all resources and technology available at any of Drive Data Recovery’s facilities to attempt the diagnostic procedure.

You will be responsible for payment if we are able to successfully recover user files. Regardless of if we are able to recover 10 files or 10,000 files, any user files successfully recovered will in full payment due. It’s impossible for any data recovery company to guarantee 100% file recovery, especially for storage devices that are damaged. The damage that originally caused your drive to stop functioning in most cases makes it impossible to access some parts of the drive that contain data. Our data recovery technicians will make every attempt to recover as much data as possible, but there is no way to guarantee that specific files will be recovered. If no user files can be recovered from the device (i.e. if the device is too badly damaged), you will not be charged.

Authorization:

You are authorizing Drive Data Recovery and its employees, agents, and delegates to conduct testing, evaluation, access, recovery attempts and processing of each data storage device or data storage media that you submit to Drive Data Recovery.

Service Limitations:

Drive Data Recovery cannot and does not guarantee or promise any specific results. Drive Data Recovery will provide reasonable efforts and the application of our existing technology and standard processes. Drive Data Recovery does not guarantee that any data will be recovered. Also, Drive Data Recovery’s attempt to recover the data may result in damage to the device, media, or data, and may even render any data unrecoverable. To the extent possible, you should attempt to back up any available data before submitting it to Drive Data Recovery.

Communications:

All communications regarding your request, project, services, including cost estimates and invoices, will be available with Drive Data Recovery and communicated verbally over the phone, in writing, or sent via provided e-mail address.

Legal Rights:

By using Drive Data Recovery services, you represent to Drive Data Recovery that you are of the legal age of majority in your state or country of residence. You warrant that you are the legal owner or the authorized representative of the legal owner of the device, media, and data. You warrant that that the data on your device is legal and that you have the unrestricted legal right (a) to send us the device, media, and data; (b) to have the data recovered using the Services; (c) to receive the recovered data; and (d) to agree to these Terms. You will defend and indemnify us (including our directors, officers, employees, and contractors) from any claims or actions relating to the device, media, or data, or your rights or lack of rights thereto.

Confidentiality Agreement:

Drive Data Recovery guarantees not to disclose or deliver the storage media or its data contents to any third parties unless specifically ordered to do so by subpoena, judicial, or legal administrative order. Drive Data Recovery staff and agents are trained to safeguard the privacy of the Client’s Data.

Disclaimer of Warranties, Representations and Guarantees:

Limitation of Liability:

Client acknowledges that the storage media is already damaged prior to the receipt by Drive Data Recovery. Client acknowledges and agrees that the diagnostic and/or recovery service efforts performed by Drive Data Recovery may result in further damage to the storage media and therefore will not hold Drive Data Recovery liable for the condition, existence, or loss of the data you send us or the data we recover; any loss of revenue, loss of profits, or any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages however caused. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, this disclaimer shall apply to any and all damages, regardless on the legal theory on which they are asserted (including, without limitation, contract, breach of contract, and tort), and regardless of whether we have been advised of the possibility of loss or damages. The amount of Drive Data Recovery’s liability will not exceed the total price client actually pays Drive Data Recovery for rendered services.

The essential purpose of this limitation is to limit Drive Data Recovery’s liability for performing the services; this allocation of risk is also reflected in our prices. This paragraph will apply notwithstanding any other provisions in this agreement, or the failure of any remedy. Your exclusive remedy for unsatisfactory work or data will be, at our option, additional attempts by us to recover satisfactory data or refund of the amount paid by you.

You will be required to pay for any additional insurance or alternate method of delivery requested, and we must have proof of such payment before we will return the Equipment or the Equipment will be shipped C.O.D.

Due to certain recovery procedures required to recover data Drive Data Recovery LLC may not be able to recover the original media intact. Additionally, Drive Data Recovery LLC reserves the right to securely destroy any and all hardware provided by the Client ( IE data cables; power cables; hard drive enclosures; RAID enclosures, etc ), including the recovery media itself even if specifically requested to be returned.

Dispute Resolution:

The parties will attempt to resolve any dispute related to the Services through good faith negotiation. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if the parties are unable to resolve the dispute through good faith negotiation, then the dispute will be submitted to final and binding arbitration with the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services. Each party will bear their own costs in arbitration. Both parties waive their rights to a jury trial.
