6.   The customer further undertakes to disable and/or remove applications such as “Find my iPhone” and “Activation Lock” before booking in the device for service or repair. These applications may restrict Digicape from affecting hardware service and/or repair, as such devices with these or similar applications will be rejected, if not disabled.
7.   Any repairs or service to be carried out on the device which is not covered by a warranty will be quoted accordingly.
8.   A quotation is an estimate which may change if the repair is unsuccessful or if additional parts or services are required.

A device will only be released once any outstanding/full payment has been received in our bank account.
10. A service charge may be applied where the customer has requested Digicape to assess the device. This may, by necessity, require certain services to be performed to assess fault/damage and to provide the customer with a quotation for the costs of repairs to the device. In this instance, Digicape will request the completion of an assessment form, which will note any applicable charges.
11. In an event where the device has sustained liquid or physical damage, the customer indemnifies Digicape harmless against any/all damage or harm/loss whatsoever arising from the assessment process. Please be advised that Digicape may not be able to return the device in working order after it has been disassembled for assessment purposes.
12. If devices have sustained damage to the LCD screens, lenses or touchscreens which have the probability to disintegrate during disassembly and will therefore not be returnable in the condition that the device was received, the customer accordingly indemnifies and holds Digicape harmless against all damage/s, harm and loss howsoever arising regarding the aforementioned.
13. In accordance with the law, Digicape will not be obliged to return devices that have been assessed and found to be reported stolen/blacklisted, unless the customer is able to prove ownership thereof.
14. Digicape does not hold parts in stock and availability is dependent on the supply from the manufacturer we therefore cannot guarantee the availability of parts. Parts ship ex Europe with an average ETA of 7 – 10 working days.
15. Digicape cannot guarantee the availability of any loan equipment should a repair take longer than expected. The customer hereby acknowledges that time is not of the essence and Digicape will not be held liable for any damages or inconvenience suffered as a result of a delay in the return of the device.
16. All collections need to be done during service centre trading hours. The customer is to present this document for collection and no unit will be released without this document.
17. The customer hereby undertakes to collect his device within 14 days after the completion of the repair.

18. The customer acknowledges that by booking in his device, that such device is pledged to Digicape as security for payment of the repair/service and storage fee as well as for the full value of any loan device not returned to Digicape or for any damage caused to a loan device.
19. Digicape reserves the right to dispose of the device to defray the costs and expenses incurred, if the device is not claimed and/or if any amount charged herein remains unpaid after 90 days from repair.
20. The customer agrees that the telephone number/s and email addresses that he provides herein are his chosen method of contact and address/number and he confirms that any legal notices or documents that Digicape may send for his attention can be sent to either contact detail.
21. Payment must be tendered prior to collection of the device. Payment shall be made at the time of collection unless the payment will be made via EFT. All EFT payments are to reflect in our Bank account before any devices may be collected.
22. A replacement or repaired part assumes the remaining term of the Warranty or ninety (90) days from the date of replacement or repair, whichever provides longer coverage for the customer. When a part is replaced or repaired, any replacement or repaired item becomes the customer’s property, and the replaced and/or discarded item becomes Digicape’s property.
23. Digicape, their directors, affiliates, employees, contractors, and agents will under no circumstances whatsoever be liable for any damages, whether direct, special, general, indirect, incidental, exemplary, or consequential, resulting from any service consultation, services rendered, or goods supplied, including without limitation, the cost of recovering, reprogramming, or reproducing any program or data. This includes, without limitation, failure to maintain the confidentiality of data, or any loss of business, profits, revenue, anticipated savings, or goodwill. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Digicape does not warrant that it will be able to (1) repair or replace any products or equipment without risk to or loss of programs, applications, or data; (2) maintain the confidentiality of data; or (3) preserve data/material stored on the device. The customer accordingly indemnifies and holds harmless Digicape from any liability in this regard whatsoever.
24. In order to affect the repair or replacement of the device, it will be necessary for Digicape to process some of the customers’ personal information. The customer hereby acknowledges that processing includes (but is not limited to) the collection, retention, use, storage, or distribution of personal information.
25. Contact information is also used for communication purposes throughout the repair process. The customer hereby agrees that personal information may be stored on the Digicape database and may be used for any lawful purpose at Digicape’s discretion and consent to the processing of your personal information by Digicape accordingly. The customer absolves Digicape from any liability in terms of the Protection of Personal Information Act No 4. of 2013 (POPI) for failing to obtain further consent or to notify the customer of the reason for the processing of personal information.
26. No addition to, variation of, or agreed cancellation of these terms and conditions shall be of any force or effect unless reduced to writing and signed by both parties by way of handwritten signatures.
27. If any provision of these terms and conditions is held to be unenforceable by any court of law or other tribunal or competent authority, such provision shall be severable from these terms and conditions and shall not affect the remaining provisions of these terms and conditions, which shall remain in full force and effect.
28. No indulgence by any party shall operate as an estoppel against it in respect of any of its rights hereunder, nor shall it operate to preclude any party thereafter from exercising its rights strictly in accordance with this agreement.

Your coverage for defects begins on the date your Covered Equipment's Apple hardware warranty expires and terminates at the end of the Coverage Period (“Repair Coverage Period”). The duration of the DPP Coverage is valid for the set period (“Coverage Period”) specified in the DPP purchased, commencing on the date of invoice for the DPP. The price of the DPP is listed on the DPP's original sales receipt. There is no informal dispute settlement process available under this DPP.

Digicape will, at its option, repair or replace the affected Covered Equipment, if:

1.   during the Repair Coverage Period there is a defect in the Covered Equipment's materials or workmanship or,
2.   during the Coverage Period, the capacity of the Covered Equipment's battery to hold an electrical charge has depleted fifty (50%) percent or more from its original specification (after being fully charged and the Covered Equipment playing audio or video with all settings reset).

Digicape will provide both parts and labour. Digicape may provide replacement product or parts that are manufactured from parts that are new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability. The replacement product or parts will be functionally equivalent to the replaced product or parts and will assume the remaining coverage under the DPP. The product or parts that are replaced become Digicape's property. Digicape strongly advises you to record as a backup, data and software residing or recorded in the Covered Equipment, before making the Covered Equipment available for service.
