Limitation of Liability
Lenovo is responsible for loss or damage to your product only while it is: 1) in your Service Provider's possession; or 2) in transit in
those cases where the Service Provider is responsible for the transportation.
Neither Lenovo nor your Service Provider is responsible for any of your data including confidential, proprietary, or personal data
contained in a product. You should remove and/or backup all such information from the product prior to its service or return.
Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on Lenovo's part or other liability, you may be entitled to recover damages from
Lenovo. In each such instance, regardless of the basis of your claim against Lenovo (including breach, negligence, misrepresentation,
or other contract or tort claim), except and to the extent that liability cannot be waived or limited by applicable laws, Lenovo shall not be
liable for more than the amount of actual direct damages suffered by you, up to the amount you paid for the product. This limit does not
apply to damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property or tangible personal property for which Lenovo is liable
under law.
This limit also applies to Lenovo's suppliers, resellers, and your Service Provider. It is the maximum amount for which Lenovo, its
suppliers, resellers, and your Service Provider are collectively responsible.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL LENOVO, ITS SUPPLIERS, RESELLERS, OR SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE FOR
ANY OF THE FOLLOWING EVEN IF INFORMED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY: 1) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR
DAMAGES; 2) LOSS OR DAMAGE TO YOUR DATA; OR 3) SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS REVENUE, GOODWILL OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS. AS SOME STATES OR
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, THE
ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
