2. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION.
2.1 DESIGN SERVICES. If a design does not meet the customers design requirements, we will gladly make changes to the design to meet those requirements. Customer recognizes that no engineer is perfect and designs are not expected to be production ready when completed. Prototyping, testing, debugging and design updates are common before being released to production. In addition, after release to production designs often need additional refinements to meet high quality standards. We have developed an advanced design check process to minimize errors in our design process.

If any Part does not meet the Specifications, and the Customer notifies FIDGET within two business days of receipt, the Customer may return the Part(at the Customers own expense) within five business days of receipt and receive a replacement Part, or a full refund of the Part Fees (exclusive of applicable taxes and shipping charges).
