Rescue Data Recovery Edmonton Laboratory Services Terms and Conditions

By ordering, receiving or using Rescue Data Recovery Lab’s data recovery services you agree to these terms and conditions:

We reserve the right to add, delete or change any of the following Terms and Conditions without prior notice.

Diagnosis and Report.  We always offer a FREE Evaluation and advice (is recovery possible, feasible, economical, should we offer “best effort”, based on the presence or absence of certain sounds and performance of your device)

Authorization for Recovery. We will inform you of our assessment and a cost estimate for repairs if required, and the actual recovery work. Authorization in the form of a Lab Fee is required at this time to continue. This Lab Fee, charged in advance – but deducted from the recovery, covers all parts and labour involved in giving you our “Best Effort” in trying to recover your data. We will then send you a File Directory Listing of all your recoverable files before you make your final decision. If no useful data is recoverable, or if you choose not to proceed, there are no additional Fees.

Fixed Price Range.  Our Fixed Price Range covers all parts and recovery cases regardless of the size of the hard drive and number of read/write heads we may need to go through in order to get your data.

Recovered Data.  Once we examine your recovered data and determine how much there is, we can supply a 2TB high-reliability Toshiba destination USB 3.0 drive for $99.00.  You may supply your own destination drive as long as it’s blank and preferably new. We credit you up to $25.00 towards the shipping of your drive to us and ship your recovered data back to you at no charge!

Rescue Data is not responsible for damage caused during shipment of items or if items are left with us longer than 30 days after requesting permission or providing result. We are not responsible for any issues that occur with the data after the client has had the data for 7 days. 2) There will be a cleaning surcharge if your drive has been opened or physically tampered with by unqualified individuals. 3) If you need your incoming drive/s returned after recovery, there is a $50 fee assessed per drive to reverse certain tasks preformed to obtain the data from your device. 4) Extra charges apply for any other services, such as, installing programs, setting up the recovered data. 5) You agree that Rescue Data is not responsible for business, personal, and data loss during the recovery procedure. 6) You are expected to pay or produce a Credit Card to be debited for the ‘agreed upon’ charges upon the completion of a successful recovery.

Note that we cannot promise any particular results. We are only committing to reasonable efforts and the application of our existing technology and standard processes. We cannot guarantee that any data will be recovered. Also, our attempt to recover the data may result in damage to the device, media, or data, and may even render any data unrecoverable.

You are authorizing Rescue DRL and its employees, agents, and delegates to conduct testing, evaluation, access, repairs, recovery attempts and processing of each data storage device or data storage media that you submit to us.

All communications relating to your request, including cost estimates and invoices, will be sent via e-mail to the address you provided to us unless you request, in writing, to receive such communications via regular mail. Please ensure that your personal information is up to date and accurate.

You represent to Rescue DRL that you are of the legal age of majority in your state, province or country of residence. You warrant that you are the legal owner or the authorized representative of the legal owner of the device, media, and data. You warrant that the data on your device is legal and that you have the unrestricted legal right (a) to send us the device, media, and data; (b) to have the data recovered; (c) to receive the recovered data; and (d) to agree to these terms. You will defend and indemnify us (including our directors, officers, employees, and contractors) from any claims or actions relating to the device, media, or data, or your rights or lack of rights thereto.

We will protect the confidentiality of your data against unauthorized disclosure using the same degree of care as we use to protect our own confidential information.

We perform this service as is, with all faults, at your sole risk. We do not extend any express warranties, representations, conditions or guarantees regarding our data recovery services or their results, and we expressly disclaim all implied warranties, including any implied warranty or condition of merchantability, warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, or warranty of accuracy or completeness. 

We will not be liable for any harm caused, unless you prove that we caused damages intentionally. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we will not be liable for the condition, existence, or loss of the data you send us or the data we recover; any loss of revenue, loss of profits, or any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages however caused. This disclaimer shall apply to any and all damages, regardless on the legal theory on which they are asserted (including, without limitation, contract, breach of contract, and tort), and regardless of whether we have been advised of the possibility of loss or damages – unless you prove that Rescue DRL caused damages to you intentionally Rescue Data is not responsible for damage caused during shipment or any items left more than 30 days after confirming the result or any recovered data after picking up (or receiving) after 2 Weeks.

The amount of our liability will not exceed the total price you actually pay us for the data recovery services. The essential purpose of this limitation is to limit our liability for performing the data recovery services; this allocation of risk is reflected in our prices. This paragraph will apply notwithstanding any other provisions in this agreement, or the failure of any remedy. You acknowledge that the price of our services would be much greater if we undertook more extensive liability.

Your exclusive remedy for unsatisfactory work or data after viewing and picking up will be, at our discretion, additional attempts by us to recover satisfactory data.
