Resqski has been designed and manufactured to ensure you can ski with peace of mind when it comes to losing your ski in the snow. We want your whole experience of buying and using Resqski – whether through an accredited retail partner or direct from us – to be a straightforward and enjoyable one. However hard we try, problems sometimes do occur and this section lays out the terms and conditions of our business including product warranty, terms and conditions for Resqski website use and product purchases from the site, privacy policy.
1. PRODUCT WARRANTY
Resqski Ltd warrants to the original purchaser that the product shall be free from significant defects in material and workmanship for 2 years beginning on the date of purchase as shown on your receipt. Should the product need to be returned it must be sent directly back to the original place of purchase to be processed. Proof of purchase must accompany the returned product. If purchased direct from Resqski Ltd, a returns authorisation number is required (contact details on www.resqski.com) prior to the product being returned to Resqski Ltd. Product must be returned by signed delivery in suitable protective packaging. Without prejudice to your rights Resqski Ltd may replace a defective product or return your money. No other warranties, express or implied are made.
WHAT THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER
This warranty does not apply to product that has been subject to abuse, misuse, negligence, tampering or has been modified in any way. The Resqski tag in particular is crafted to withstand the normal submerged and bumpy conditions that every powder skier experiences. It is deemed waterproof and shockproof. However, it is not engineered to withstand a collision with another object such as a rock or another person’s ski. The Resqski Handheld transceiver is not waterproof or shockproof and is not covered from failure to protect it from impact damage and moisture.
Resqski is designed to significantly reduce the time it takes to retrieve skis submerged in snow. We do not guarantee that on all occasions you will find your ski. In exceptional cases the ski may be buried too deep in compacted snow. Very bad weather conditions including extremely low temperatures may prevent the product from working effectively. Similarly certain terrains may work against the effective use of the product including very steep, rocky slopes where there are major obstacles to the line between the Handheld transceiver and the lost ski. Also if batteries are allowed to run down (for instance if the tags are left in the ‘ON’ position for prolonged periods of time) this will shorten the range considerably or even make the product ineffective. We therefore do not indemnify against the replacement cost of a lost ski.
Resqski is not designed to rescue people. We do not accept liability for injury or loss of life. Resqski Ltd will not be liable for any special, incidental or consequential damages whether or not the purpose for which you purchased the product was made known to Resqski Ltd, the retailer or otherwise. Your statutory rights are not affected in any way.

It is essential that someone will be at the delivery address to receive and sign for the goods. You must inspect goods supplied as soon as practicable after delivery and notify us within a reasonable period of time of delivery any alleged defect or failure to comply with the description of the goods. The goods are at your risk from the time of delivery and no liability will be accepted by us for damage or loss to the products after the time that the delivery document stating that the goods were received has been signed. Failing such notice you will be deemed to have accepted that the products are in accordance with the contract and free from any defect or damage.
Carriage Rates
Our standard UK mainland handling & delivery is charged at £4.99 with expected delivery within 5 working days. This may be subject to change.
