ZETECH offers the exclusive remedy of repair for any crossbow found to be defective in materials or workmanship. ZETECH reserves the right to determine whether a product is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty after inspecting the returned item.

If repair is not feasible, the product will be exchanged or replaced with the same or a similar product, depending on availability, at the discretion of ZETECH.
7. SERVICE PROCEDURE
To initiate a warranty claim, please obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number by submitting your claim. All BALLISTA crossbow warranty claims require a photo and proof of purchase.

8. APPLICABLE STATE LAW
This limited warranty grants you specific legal rights, which may vary from state to state. The warranty is governed by the laws of the state of Florida, USA.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Your sole and exclusive remedy under this limited warranty is the repair or replacement of defective parts or workmanship. In no event shall ZETECH, its licensors, distributors, or suppliers be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential damages, expenses, lost profits, lost savings, business interruption, lost business information, property damage, personal injuries (including death), emotional distress, pain and suffering, or any other damage arising out of the use or inability to use the product, even if ZETECH, its licensors, distributors, or suppliers were advised of the possibility of such damages. You acknowledge that the purchase price paid for the product reflects this allocation of risk and exclusion of damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages; therefore, the above limitation may not apply to you. If the limitation of liability is not applicable, ZETECH’s liability for property damage shall not exceed the greater of $50,000 or the price paid for the product causing such damage.
10. WARRANTY LIMITATION PERIOD
All warranties implied by law are limited to the lesser of 1 year from the date of original purchase or the limitation period applicable in the state where the damage occurred, whichever period is shorter. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Any action against ZETECH based on an alleged breach of warranty must be filed in court within 1 year of the claimed breach.
11. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This document constitutes the entire agreement regarding the product warranty. If any part of this limited warranty (including the warranty disclaimers and limitations of ZETECH’s liability) is deemed void, unenforceable, or illegal, the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely aligns with the original intent. The remaining provisions of the agreement shall remain in full force and effect. ZETECH does not provide any other warranty beyond the terms of this limited warranty. No agent, employee, or salesman of ZETECH, its licensors, distributors, or suppliers, nor any person employed by the retail dealer or seller from whom you purchased the product, is authorized to modify, extend, or waive the terms of this limited warranty. Any statements, representations, or promises made by anyone else at any time are unenforceable against ZETECH.
