These confidentiality obligations shall not apply to any information which enters the public domain through no fault of Roots Data Recovery, which was known to Roots Data Recovery prior to receipt from you, which is disclosed to Roots Data Recovery by a third party (other than employees or agents of either party) which to Roots Data Recovery’s knowledge in making such information available to Roots Data Recovery is not in violation of any confidentiality obligation to you.

You acknowledge that the media/data/equipment you are making available to Roots Data Recovery is already damaged, that data recovery efforts can potentially result in further damage, and that Roots Data Recovery is not responsible for this or any other type of damage, including damage to or failures by equipment or media furnished by Roots Data Recovery.

You agree that Roots Data Recovery grants no warranties regarding its services of any kind, and all services are provided on an “as-is” basis. Any issues regarding recovered data (either data corruption or incomplete recoveries) must be addressed within 10 business days of the completed and shipped recovery. After 10 business days your recovered data will be qualified as acceptable, and it will be removed from our servers. Any additional recovery attempts will be subject to additional recovery charges. ACS Data Recovery will focus on the file types or specific file names specified within the form when you created your data recovery case. If no specifications are made then a generalized recovery of all available data will be made and this may or may not include data that may be deemed desirable by you.

Unrecoverable Data

Should your data be deemed completely “Unrecoverable”; or you simply elect not to have your data recovered, return shipping charges and expedite fees (if applicable) will remain your responsibility. Unrecoverable - means that there is mechanical failure or severe data corruption in the media that precludes access to any data on the media by any means within Roots Data Recovery’s capability. This definition does not apply in cases where ‘desired’ data was not specified when your data recovery case was created.
