OLPC APAC may revise prices for Products listed as available items on OLPC APAC websites at any time. A price remains valid only for the duration of the day on which Customer visits the page of the OLPC APAC website displaying that price or the day on which Customer is informed of the price by OLPC APAC (through a telephone call center or otherwise). OLPC APAC displays current Products at http://www.olpcapac.org and on local, country specific, OLPC APAC websites only. OLPC APAC endeavors to maintain Product availability. However, Product availability constantly changes and different Products and Product groups may have different availabilities. All orders are subject to availability of the relevant Product(s). OLPC APAC reserves the right to prioritize orders and to allocate limited stock between orders as it deems fit.

Any weights and measurements stated on OLPC APAC websites are approximate.

5. Price
The price of Products shall be OLPC APAC's currently applicable price at the date and time of acceptance of the Customer's order. This may be specified on OLPC APAC websites or at Product purchase "check-out", but the definitive price shall be that which is notified to Customer by OLPC APAC on acceptance of the order by OLPC APAC. Any incorrect prices on OLPC APAC websites shall be void and of no effect and in respect of any orders placed for incorrectly priced Products, the correct price as determined by OLPC APAC shall be notified to the Customer and, if the Customer wishes to continue with the order, substituted in place of the incorrect price.

For credit card payments, Customer must provide his or her valid credit card number and other requested details either in the relevant purchase "check-out" section of the relevant OLPC APAC website or to the telephone call center agent, when Customer orders Products.

8. Order Acknowledgment, Order Acceptance, Contract formation
All orders for Products placed by you with OLPC APAC are subject to acceptance by OLPC APAC. OLPC APAC may in its sole discretion accept or reject orders, or advise you of its inability to process orders.

OLPC APAC may send you an acknowledgement of receipt of an order, by e-mail or other medium (including telephone). Such an acknowledgement of receipt may be automatically generated and shall not constitute an acceptance of the order. OLPC APAC websites through which orders can be placed may contain automatic means for identifying and alerting you to certain types of input error before you place your order. Such means may not identify all errors or omissions and you should ensure that the information you submit in your order is accurate and complete.

If an order placed online through an OLPC APAC website or by e-mail, OLPC APAC may advise of its acceptance of the order by e-mail or other written form. OLPC APAC reserves rights to acknowledge or accept verbally (by telephone) telephone orders placed through its call center or similar facilities.

Any Contract is dependant and conditional upon OLPC APAC's verification of availability and acceptance of both your order and your credit card or other payment details. Unless and until OLPC APAC confirms acceptance of both of these items, OLPC APAC has no obligation to provide any Products or Services. Where Customer has elected to make payment other than with a credit card (and OLPC APAC has accepted that payment option), OLPC APAC is entitled to consider an order or Contract cancelled with or without notice to Customer, if OLPC APAC does not receive that payment within 10 days of the date of the relevant order acknowledgement.

We maintain records of orders, order acknowledgements and Contracts (including these Terms and order acceptances) and retain these for a reasonable period following delivery. Whilst we may if necessary (and only on written request) be able to provide you with a copy of your Contract, these are not made generally available to Customers. We recommend that you retain a printed copy of these Terms with a copy and/or note of your order, order acknowledgment, order acceptance, payment method acceptance and invoice as evidence of purchase.

9. Account Information
You are solely responsible for 1) providing true, accurate, current and complete information about you as prompted in the OLPC APAC website account details section or as requested by a OLPC APAC telephone call center agent ("Account Information"), and 2) maintaining and promptly updating Account Information to maintain its accuracy, currency and completeness. You are solely responsible for the security of any password provided to you for purposes of facilitating Product purchases or other matters via this and other OLPC APAC websites. OLPC APAC shall not be liable for any unauthorized use of passwords.

10. Delivery

OLPC APAC does not provide delivery for any purchase from http://www.olpcapac.org, or in other order practice. After you purchase product from OLPC APAC website, you will be acknowledged to redeem your order at a Oregon Scientific stores or any place specified.

If you cannot redeem your XO laptop within the designated period, please contact us at info@olpcapac.org or call 2955 5888 to arrange another time for pickup at the OLPC APAC office at 25/F Oxford House, Taikoo Place, 979 King's Road, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong. If you do not redeem your XO laptop by 31 January, 2009 we would assume that you would want us to donate the laptop to one more child in need in Sichuan.

11. Tax exemption
OLPC APAC is an approved charitable institution in Hong Kong. The amount of your payment that is deductible for Hong Kong SAR income tax purposes is limited to the excess of the amount of any money contributed by you over the value of the goods or services provided by OLPC APAC. If you make a donation to OLPC APAC and do not elect to receive an XO laptop, your entire payment will be treated by OLPC APAC as a charitable contribution. To the extent your payment exceeds the fair market value of the benefits you receive, you may be able to claim a charitable contribution deduction. OLPC APAC does not provide tax advice, and participants in the G1G1 initiative should consult with their own tax and legal advisors concerning tax matters.

12. Title
OLPC APAC retains full legal title to Products until it has received in full all amounts due on those Products and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) payment on any other Products that you have ordered. OLPC APAC reserves rights (subject to applicable law) to terminate Customer's right to use, sell or otherwise deal in Products, and to enter the premises of Customer and repossess Products (or to instruct a third party to do so), if payment is not made when due, or if the credit card company declines payment or requires OLPC APAC to return any payment made for the Products, for any reason.

Title to any software comprising, included in or with Products remains with OLPC APAC, the relevant OLPC APAC Group Company or the relevant licensor, notwithstanding payment.

13. Software Licenses
All software, including pre-loaded software contained in hardware Products, is licensed and not sold. It is licensed either by OLPC APAC or the relevant software owner to you subject to the relevant software end-user license agreement or other terms included with the software and/or with the Product or Services. Software may not be disassembled, decompiled, reverse engineered, merged or combined with any other software, copied, translated, adapted, varied or modified (save as expressly permitted by applicable law) nor may it be distributed in any form.

Where express software license terms are not supplied, software is licensed on a non-exclusive, non-transferable, single user basis for use only with the accompanying Product.

If you do not accept the terms of any applicable software license, subject to the exceptions in paragraph 16 below, you should return the Products unused and "as new" in accordance with, and within the time period set out in, paragraph 15 below. Note: to qualify for a refund, shrink-wrap software must not be opened (see paragraph 16 below).

OLPC APAC's guarantees or warranties do not include the correction or avoidance of software defects or errors or the loading or re-loading of Customer's applications software or data or any reconfiguration of Products beyond reloading the operating system software as installed in the Products before shipment (subject to software availability).

14. Internet Connection
The XO laptop is designed for easy-to-use wireless connection by children to the Internet and other networks. Internet access must be purchased separately through an independent Internet Service Provider (ISP). In selecting an ISP, you should remember that, in addition to the many wonderful sites and educational resources on the Internet and World Wide Web, there are places where you wouldn’t want your child to go and people you wouldn’t want your child to meet. That’s why many ISPs offer “filters” that assist you in monitoring and/or controlling your child’s Internet access. So your child can have a safe and healthful experience, OLPC APAC RECOMMENDS THAT YOU USE AN APPROPRIATE INTERNET FILTER, REMAIN INVOLVED IN YOUR CHILD’S USE OF THE INTERNET AND, OF COURSE, STAY ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN YOUR CHILD’S EDUCATION.

15. Your Acceptance of Products
You have the responsibility for examining the Products on delivery and verifying their condition, and that the content of the Product package is complete. Products will be considered to have been accepted by you on delivery, as in good condition, and with all accessories, components and other products and content to be contained in or packaged with the Product, and as otherwise in accordance with the Contract, unless you have on delivery or promptly thereafter inspected the Products and notified OLPC APAC of any deficiencies or defects.

16. Exceptions to right to return
The right of return does not apply if you do not purchase Products or Services as a consumer. The right of return and refund does not apply to software sold with OLPC APAC products, or as a separate product, if the license seal has been broken and/or shrink-wrap packaging opened.

17. Resale of Product, Parts etc.
XO laptops are available only for private home and educational uses. Customer shall not resell Product, Product parts, components or accessories packaged with the Products. OLPC APAC may (among other reasons) reject orders placed by Customer if Customer breaches this term (with regard to any Products) or if OLPC APAC reasonably suspects that Customer has breached or will breach this term.

18. Guarantees and Warranties
Subject to the qualification with respect to statutory rights (below), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, OLPC APAC gives no guarantees or warranties with respect to Products or Services, additional to those in the warranty card included with the Products, (in each case, "Warranties").

Guarantee cards and Typical Guarantee terms and exceptions

In the Warranty cards included with Products, OLPC APAC or the relevant OLPC APAC Group Company gives certain warranties and service undertakings concerning the Products.

All XO laptops sold are not refundable but you get a 1 year warranty on the XO laptop you take home.

The terms of the Warranties applicable to the Products you order may vary depending on the relevant Product, country of sale or intended use of the Product. In the Warranties, OLPC APAC or the relevant OLPC APAC Group Company (as stated in the relevant Warranty) typically guarantees the Product to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 12 months (or other stipulated period) from original purchase. If, during that period, the Product proves defective in materials or workmanship, the relevant service center, facility or other service option will repair or replace the Product (at the sole discretion of OLPC APAC Scientific) or defective parts, subject to exceptions stated in the relevant Warranty. Repair or replacement of defective Products or parts in accordance with the relevant Warranty terms is (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) your only and exclusive remedy for defective Product covered by a Warranty.

However, the Warranties (and these Terms) do not affect or detract from, and should not be read to affect, your statutory rights under applicable law (whether as a consumer or otherwise) which cannot be waived or limited by contract, and you may assert your rights at your sole discretion.

The following are some typical exceptions to Warranty coverage (stated in the Warranties):

- A Warranty does not cover damage from adaptations or adjustments made to the relevant Product without the prior written consent of OLPC APAC Scientific.

- A Warranty will not apply if the type or serial number of the product has been altered, deleted, removed or rendered illegible.

- A Warranty does not cover (among other things): a. periodic maintenance and repair or replacement of parts due to normal wear and tear; b. consumables supplied with the Product such as batteries; c. cosmetic damage; d. physical damage to liquid crystal displays; e. damage or loss to software, data or storage media; f. transport costs and risks; g. damage from improper use or maintenance; h. damage from installation or use of the Product inconsistent with applicable technical or safety standards or installation or user instructions; i. damage from improper or incorrect installation of software and other products; j. repair or attempted repair of the Product by non-authorized persons; k. damage from accidents, lightning, water, fire, improper ventilation or any cause beyond the control of OLPC APAC; l. damage by use of the Product with accessories, products or peripheral equipment not made by OLPC APAC; m. damage by defects of any system into which the Product is incorporated; n. software (as mentioned below); and o. damage due to abuse, neglect or commercial use.

The Warranty cards contain warranties and other vital terms concerning the Products, including limitations and exclusions of warranty coverage and liability. Please review the Warranty(ies) which apply to the Products carefully. Placing an order for Products with OLPC APAC constitutes full acceptance of the warranty and warranty terms and limitations set out in these Terms and in any applicable OLPC APAC Warranties available to view at the time of placing an order. The terms of the Warranty card shipped with the Product supersedes (to the extent of any inconsistency) Warranty terms in OLPC APAC websites and other sources.

All warranty services under a Warranty will be provided only on presentation of proof and date of purchase. Therefore, you should keep a copy of the invoice for the Product with the Product Warranty card. You should also keep a copy of the courier delivery note as evidence of the exact delivery date.

Claims to be made within warranty period

Notwithstanding any provision of the Warranty, all warranty claims must be made within the warranty period stipulated in the Warranty.

No other terms or warranties

No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by you from OLPC APAC, distributors, resellers or other third parties, whether through or from after-sales or other services referred to in, or linked to or from OLPC APAC websites, or otherwise, will create any warranty or condition concerning Product features or capabilities not expressly stated in these Terms or the relevant Warranty (ies). There are no warranties, conditions or other terms that are binding on OLPC APAC other than as stated in these Terms, except for those (if any) provided by your statutory rights under applicable law (whether as a consumer or otherwise) which cannot be waived or limited by contract.

There may be differences between Products delivered to you and seemingly equivalent products described in marketing materials (advertisements, catalogues, specification sheets etc) in manufacturers', distributors', resellers' or other websites or other materials, which may or may not be intended for use in your country of residence. OLPC APAC is not responsible for such differences.

Any other warranty, condition or other term concerning Products that might otherwise be implied into or incorporated into the Terms by law is expressly excluded (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law). OLPC APAC employees are not authorized to vary these Terms.

If Products (such as certain accessories) are sold without an applicable Warranty card, OLPC APAC gives no warranty or guarantee, other than as stated in applicable law.

Third Party Hardware

If hardware which is not manufactured by OLPC APAC is included as or with Products available for purchase from OLPC APAC and a separate third party Warranty for that hardware is included with Products, the terms of that guarantee or warranty shall apply to the exclusion of the guarantees and warranties mentioned above (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law).

Software

The Guarantee(s) and/or warranties mentioned above do not cover any software products contained in or supplied with the Products (whether produced by OLPC APAC or by other parties).

Any such software is provided "AS IS" (i.e. without warranty or conditions as to its satisfactory quality, fitness for purpose or correspondence with description) unless expressly provided in any end-user license agreement or software or other product warranty from the relevant manufacturer or licensor, enclosed with the relevant Products. Please refer to the end-user license agreements and/or guarantees or warranties included with the Products, for Customer's rights with regards to the manufacturer or supplier of software, and the parties' respective obligations with respect to that software.

OLPC APAC does not offer support to customers for problems or issues regarding any software or other products licensed or manufactured by a party other than OLPC APAC. If Customer needs such support, Customer must contact the respective manufacturer or licensor of the relevant software or other product.

Modification of Guarantees and warranties

OLPC APAC reserves the right to modify warranties (in or referred to in these Terms), and/or separate warranties and guarantees (included with the Products) at any time. However, Contracts accepted on the basis of previous terms and conditions, including Warranties which applied to your purchase (at the time of purchase) remain unaffected.

19. Liability limitation
