Limited Warranty Policy

Limited Warranty information for kiosks and other components.

 

All the kiosks and goods that Alveni LLC and Alveni, SA de CV delivers, have been carefully designed and manufactured under the most strict quality control policies ensuring that they will properly function during their lifespan.  
 
 The standard 1 year Standard Depot Limited Warranty included in all our kiosks  and individual components ensures the safety, reliability and service our products are meant to deliver. Limited warranties can be extended for up to 5 years and they start from the original date of purchase. The warranty period for each client/project is clearly indicated in the project’s proposal and in the corresponding invoice(s). 


Alveni warrants its products against deficiencies in materials (parts) and workmanship (labor).  

  • Parts – the warranty period for parts is: one (1) year from the date of original purchase. During the applicable Limited Warranty period for parts, defective parts will be replaced at no charge. The replacement product or part may be new or refurbished to the Alveni standard of quality, and, at Alveni's option, may be another model of like kind and quality. Parts used for the replacement will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period for those parts.
  • Labor – the warranty period for labor is: one (1) year from the date of original purchase. During the applicable Limited Warranty period for labor, Alveni will provide the labor for warranty repair at no charge for a period of one (1) year from the date of original purchase.

The Depot Limited Warranty includes parts and labor necessary to diagnose the faulty component and repair it if possible.  The client will pay the shipping fees of the inbound shipment of the faulty component, from client's location to Alveni's service center. This limited warranty covers the outbound shipment of the repaired/replacement component.  If the product is found to have no defects, the customer will be responsible for return shipping costs as well. Alveni will use standard UPS/Fedex ground service for all shipments. And specialized LTL freight services for kiosks and other large components/devices.  If a faster /different shipment method is requested by the customer, additional charges may apply.

Shipping & freight services.
All shipping & freight services are done by third party specialized companies like UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc.  Issues like damages, theft or loss of packages related to shipping / freight services are not covered by Alveni's Limited Warranty.  The shipping/freight services do not include any additional services like: Life gate, delivery inside location, special appointment, etc.  and do not include any type of insurance besides the standard liability coverage provided by the shipping / freight company.

If shipment was offered by Alveni as part of the project, after each delivery, the client has full responsibility to check the package(s), open the boxes if needed and confirm that package(s) were received as expected.  If not, the client has 3 days to report any issues with the package(s) received that could have been related to the shipment/freight services.  This includes, mishandling of packages, broken boxes, etc. The client must raise a support ticket and send a written report of the issue(s) and photos / video evidence . By doing this, Alveni could help the client to raise a claim with the shipping company looking to address the issue(s) in favor of the client.  If additional insurance was paid by the client, this claim will look for corresponding compensation.  If no insurance was requested/paid by the client on the shipment, standard  liability coverage by the shipping company or no coverage may apply.

Meanwhile, issue(s) must be evaluated by Alveni to define course of action.  If damage occurred and repairs/replacement need to be done, Alveni will inform the client a quote for the corresponding services.  

If the client does not raise a report ticket within 3 days of receiving the package(s), it will mean that items were received in good condition as expected.
