programs; and

claims for breach of contract, breach of warranty, guarantee or condition, strict liability, negligence, or other tort
to the extent permitted by applicable law.

It also applies even if

repair, replacement or a refund for the software does not fully compensate you for any losses; or
Microsoft knew or should have known about the possibility of the damages.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above
limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. They also may not apply to you because your country may not
allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental, consequential or other damages.

LIMITED WARRANTY
A. LIMITED WARRANTY. If you follow the instructions, the software will perform substantially as described
in the Microsoft materials that you receive in or with the software.
B. TERM OF WARRANTY; WARRANTY RECIPIENT; LENGTH OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES. The limited
warranty covers the software for one year after acquired by the first user. If you receive supplements,
updates, or replacement software during that year, they will be covered for the remainder of the warranty
or 30 days, whichever is longer. If the first user transfers the software, the remainder of the warranty will apply
to the recipient.
To the extent permitted by law, any implied warranties, guarantees or conditions last only during the term
of the limited warranty. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so these
limitations may not apply to you. They also might not apply to you because some countries may not allow
limitations on how long an implied warranty, guarantee or condition lasts.
C. EXCLUSIONS FROM WARRANTY. This warranty does not cover problems caused by your acts (or failures
to act), the acts of others, or events beyond Microsoft’s reasonable control.

Microsoft cannot repair or replace it, Microsoft will refund the amount shown on your receipt for the
software. It will also repair or replace supplements, updates and replacement software at no charge. If
Microsoft cannot repair or replace them, it will refund the amount you paid for them, if any. You must
uninstall the software and return any media and other associated materials to Microsoft with proof of
purchase to obtain a refund. These are your only remedies for breach of the limited warranty.
E. CONSUMER RIGHTS NOT AFFECTED. You may have additional consumer rights under your local
laws, which this agreement cannot change.
F. WARRANTY PROCEDURES. You need proof of purchase for warranty service.

Microsoft excludes implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-
infringement. If your local laws give you any implied warranties, guarantees or conditions, despite this
exclusion, your remedies are described in the Remedy for Breach of Warranty clause above, to the extent
permitted by your local laws.
H. LIMITATION ON AND EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY. The Limitation on and

Please note: As this software is distributed in Quebec, Canada, some of the clauses in this agreement are
provided below in French.

Remarque : Ce logiciel étant distribué au Québec, Canada, certaines des clauses dans ce contrat sont
fournies ci-dessous en français.
GARANTIE LIMITÉE
A. GARANTIE LIMITÉE. Si vous suivez les instructions, le logiciel fonctionnera dans son ensemble comme il
est décrit dans la documentation de Microsoft reçue avec ou dans le logiciel.
B. DURÉE DE LA GARANTIE ; BÉNÉFICIAIRE DE LA GARANTIE ; DURÉE DE TOUTE GARANTIE IMPLICITE.
La garantie limitée couvre le logiciel pendant un an après son acquisition par le premier utilisateur. Si
vous recevez des compléments, des mises à jour ou un logiciel de remplacement au cours de cette année,
ils seront couverts par la garantie pendant la durée restante ou pendant 30 jours, la période la plus longue
étant retenue. Si le premier utilisateur transfère le logiciel, la durée restante de la garantie s’applique au
destinataire.
Dans la limite autorisée par la loi en vigueur, toute garantie ou condition implicite dont vous bénéficiez
prendra fin au terme de la garantie limitée. Certains États n’autorisent pas les limitations portant sur la durée
d’une garantie implicite, de sorte que les limitations ci-dessus peuvent ne pas vous être applicables. Elles
peuvent également ne pas vous être applicables, car certains pays n’autorisent pas les limitations portant sur la
durée d’une garantie ou condition implicite.
C. EXCLUSIONS DE LA GARANTIE. Cette garantie ne couvre pas les problèmes engendrés par vos propres
actes (ou absences d’actes), ceux de tiers ou tout autre événement indépendant de la volonté de Microsoft.
D. RECOURS DANS LE CADRE DE LA VIOLATION DE GARANTIE. Nous nous engageons à réparer ou à
remplacer le logiciel gratuitement. Si nous ne pouvons pas le réparer ni le remplacer, nous rembourserons
le montant que vous avez payé pour le logiciel figurant sur le reçu. Nous nous engageons à réparer ou à
remplacer les compléments, les mises à jour et le logiciel de remplacement gratuitement. Si nous ne
pouvons pas les réparer ni les remplacer, nous rembourserons le montant que vous avez payé pour ces
composants, le cas échéant. Vous devez désinstaller le logiciel et le renvoyer à Microsoft avec une preuve
d’achat pour vous faire rembourser. Ces recours sont les seuls dont vous disposez dans le cadre de la
violation de garantie limitée.
E. DROITS DES CONSOMMATEURS NON AFFECTÉS. Vous pouvez bénéficier de droits des
consommateurs supplémentaires dans le cadre du droit local, que ce contrat ne peut modifier.
F. PROCÉDURES RELATIVES AUX RÉCLAMATIONS DANS LE CADRE DE LA GARANTIE. Vous devrez
fournir une preuve d’achat pour obtenir de l’aide en matière de garantie.
1. États-Unis et Canada. Pour obtenir de l’aide en matière de garantie ou des informations sur la
procédure à suivre pour vous faire rembourser un logiciel acquis aux États-Unis et au Canada, mettez-vous en
rapport avec Microsoft
(800) MICROSOFT ;

Microsoft Customer Service and Support, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399 ; ou

en visitant http://www.microsoft.com/info/nareturns.htm.
2. Europe, Moyen-Orient et Afrique. Si vous avez acquis le logiciel en Europe, au Moyen-Orient ou en
Afrique, Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited offre cette garantie limitée. Pour faire une réclamation au titre de
cette garantie, vous devez vous mettre en rapport avec
Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited, Customer Care Centre, Atrium Building Block B, Carmanhall Road,
Sandyford Industrial Estate, Dublin 18, Irlande ; ou

votre filiale nationale de Microsoft (visitez le site http://www.microsoft.com/worldwide).


3. En dehors des États-Unis, du Canada, de l’Europe, du Moyen-Orient et de l’Afrique. Si vous avez
acquis le logiciel en dehors des États-Unis, du Canada, de l’Europe, du Moyen-Orient et de l’Afrique, mettez-
vous en rapport avec votre filiale nationale de Microsoft (visitez le site http://www.microsoft.com/worldwide).
G. AUCUNE AUTRE GARANTIE. La garantie limitée est la seule garantie directe de Microsoft. Nous
n’accordons aucune autre garantie ou condition expresse. Dans toute la mesure permise par le droit local,
les garanties implicites de qualité marchande, d’adéquation à un usage particulier et d’absence de
contrefaçon sont exclues. Si le droit local vous accorde des garanties ou conditions implicites, nonobstant la
présente exclusion, les recours dont vous disposez sont ceux présentés dans la clause de recours dans le cadre
de la violation de garantie ci-dessus, dans la limite autorisée par le droit local.
H. LIMITATION DES DOMMAGES-INTÉRÊTS ET EXCLUSION DE RESPONSABILITÉ DANS LE CADRE DE LA
VIOLATION DE GARANTIE. La clause de limitation des dommages-intérêts et exclusion de responsabilité
ci-dessous s’applique aux violations de cette garantie limitée.
La présente garantie vous confère des droits légaux spécifiques et vous pouvez également bénéficier
d’autres droits qui varient d’un État à l’autre. Vous pouvez également bénéficier d’autres droits qui varient
d’un pays à l’autre.

LIMITATION DES DOMMAGES-INTÉRÊTS ET EXCLUSION DE RESPONSABILITÉ POUR LES DOMMAGES. Vous


pouvez obtenir de Microsoft et de ses fournisseurs une indemnisation en cas de dommages directs
uniquement à hauteur du montant que vous avez payé pour le logiciel. Vous ne pouvez prétendre à aucune
indemnisation pour les autres dommages, y compris les dommages spéciaux, indirects ou accessoires et
pertes de bénéfices.

Cette limitation concerne

toute affaire liée au logiciel, aux services ou au contenu (y compris le code) figurant sur des sites Internet tiers ou
dans des programmes tiers ; et

les réclamations au titre de violation de contrat ou de garantie ou condition, ou au titre de responsabilité stricte,
de négligence ou d’une autre faute dans la limite autorisée par la loi en vigueur.

Elle s’applique également, même si

la réparation, le remplacement ou le remboursement du logiciel ne compense pas intégralement toute perte


subie ; ou

Microsoft connaissait l’éventualité d’un tel dommage.

Certains États n’autorisent pas l’exclusion ou la limitation de responsabilité pour les dommages indirects ou
accessoires, de sorte que la limitation ou l’exclusion ci-dessus peut ne pas vous être applicable. Elles peuvent
également ne pas vous être applicables, car votre pays n’autorise pas l’exclusion ou la limitation de
responsabilité pour les dommages indirects, accessoires ou de quelque nature que ce soit.

EFFET JURIDIQUE. Le présent contrat décrit certains droits juridiques. Vous pourriez avoir d’autres droits prévus
par les lois de votre État ou pays. Vous pourriez également avoir des droits à l’égard de la partie de qui vous avez
acquis de logiciel. Le présent contrat ne modifie pas les droits que vous confèrent les lois de votre État ou pays si
celles-ci ne le permettent pas.
