Computer & Network Service Warranty

60-Day Limited Warranty on Labor:

Jim’s Computers warrants that all services—including computer repair, network configuration, and server maintenance—will be performed in a professional manner. If the specific issue addressed in the original work order reoccurs within 60 days due to a service error, we will perform the service again at no charge.

Exclusions:

This warranty does not cover issues caused by “end-user” actions, including but not limited to:
– Infections (Viruses/Spyware/Ransomware) after service is completed.
– Unauthorized tampering with network settings, admin credentials, or hardware configurations.
– New, unrelated hardware failures or ISP-related outages.

Onsite Consulting & Network Management:

For onsite IT consulting and network deployments, our warranty covers the integrity of the configuration performed. Jim’s Computers is not responsible for network downtime caused by third-party software updates, hardware obsolescence, or environmental factors (power surges/fire/liquid).

Hardware Replacements & Upgrades:

All hardware components (Routers, Switches, Drives, etc.) are covered by the Manufacturer’s Limited Warranty. Jim’s Computers is bound by the specific terms, conditions, and return policies of the manufacturer. Overclocking or exceeding specified hardware workloads voids all warranties.

Limited Liability & Data Responsibility (CRITICAL):

Jim’s Computers is not responsible for data loss under any circumstances. It is the Client’s sole responsibility to ensure a restorable backup exists prior to any onsite or remote service. Our total liability for any claim shall not exceed the total amount paid for the specific service provided.

General Warranty Exclusions:

Shipping & Relocation: Jim’s Computers does not cover shipping or travel costs for warranty claims if the customer has relocated outside of Stockton, CA.
Software & Malware: No warranty is provided for software issues, including viruses, spyware, or ransomware infections occurring after service. While we provide industry-standard security recommendations, 100% protection is impossible. The client is responsible for safe browsing habits and maintaining updated security software.
Unauthorized Work: Any attempt by the user or a third party to repair, modify, or open internal components voids all Jim’s Computers warranties.
Data Loss & Liability: Jim’s Computers is not responsible for data loss. Clients must maintain a redundant backup system. We are not liable for loss of business, profits, or consequential damages resulting from system downtime or hardware failure.
Environmental & Acts of God: Damage from power surges, lightning, flood, fire, or “Acts of God” is not covered. We recommend a high-quality UPS/Surge protector for all networking and server equipment.
Third-Party Services: We make no warranties regarding the performance of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) or third-party web services. We do not guarantee compatibility with software or peripherals not supplied by Jim’s Computers.
