Warranty policy
I. LIMITED WARRANTY
OXY Pty Ltd warrants, to the original purchaser only, that the AirBuddy product(s) purchased will be free of defects in materials and/or craftsmanship for a Warranty Period of one year* from the date of purchase (delivery date for online orders) under normal use and with proper maintenance as prescribed by AirBuddy’s published product materials, including, but not limited to, user manuals, safety instructions, specifications and service communications.
Depending on the country, particular and variable warranties may apply in relation to applicable legislation. Nothing in this Warranty Policy can exclude or limit these statutory provisions.
To the extent permitted by national laws, the Warranty Period will not be extended, renewed or otherwise affected due to subsequent resale, repair or replacement of the product. However, part(s) replaced during the Warranty Period will be warranted for a new Warranty Period of one year*, provided such replacement has been performed by AirBuddy representative.
Your rights, as purchaser, against OXY Pty Ltd under this Warranty are limited to the repair and replacement of any defective components.

Shipping charges relating to warranty claims are at the expense of the purchaser unless otherwise agreed in writing with OXY Pty Ltd.
By using your AirBuddy product(s), you agree to be bound by this Warranty Policy. If you are not eligible or do not agree to any of the Terms, do not use your AirBuddy product(s).
