- Ordinary Wear and Tear or Damages Caused by Your Improper Use or Accidents Not Covered. This Policy does not cover ordinary wear and tear or damage caused by improper use, neglect or accidents, subject to the terms of KID’s Limited Hardware Warranty.

Warranty
The following is KID’s limited warranty policy (the “Warranty”) in the unlikely event there are any defects in a Product.
- This Warranty covers defects in the Product for one (1) year or any statutory warranty period as provided under applicable laws, whichever is longer, commencing from the delivery date of the Product (“Warranty Period”).

- Warranty shall only be extended to the original purchaser who directly purchased the Product or to the original gift recipient;

- Understand that additional proof such as a technical report from a third-party qualified testing lab may be required;
-
Understand that a prima facie assessment of whether or not the applicable Product has a covered defect will be conducted by us and will be based on the materials and information submitted by you;
- If a covered defect is confirmed by us, a “return merchandise authorization” (RMA authorization) will be sent to you for you to return the Product to our designated address. Return of a Product will not be accepted without a prior RMA authorization issued by us.
- Promptly after receiving the returned Product, technical inspection will be carried out onsite during which we will determine if any covered defect existed upon delivery.
- In our sole discretion, we will determine the outcome of the refund request by taking into account factors such as the condition and value of the returned Product and the significance of the defect to the use and performance of the Product as intended.
- This Warranty does not apply to the following:
- Any KID product won by you through part of an activity or competition (e.g. lottery drawing) on our platform or any of our promotional channels;
