PRA Audio SERVICES ARE PROVIDED STRICTLY “AS IS” AND WITH “ALL FAULTS”. PRA Audio MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS WITH REGARD TO PRA Audio SERVICES OR USE OF PRA Audio SERVICES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING FOR ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, OR SECURITY.

PRA Audio reserves the right to discontinue or to make corrections, enhancements, improvements, and other changes to PRA Audio Services, or its products and services at any time and in its sole discretion. With respect to PRA Audio products, please see our Product change notification and Product obsolescence policies (viewable here). PRA Audio strongly encourages customers to purchase PRA Audio parts either directly from PRA Audio, or from PRA Audio Authorized Dealers Distributors listed by region and country on the following webpage. You should obtain the latest relevant information before using PRA Audio Services or placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete.
PRA Audio products are sold subject to separate terms (see, for example, PRA Audio’s Terms of Sale) as agreed by PRA Audio at the time of order acknowledgment.
PRA Audio may provide you with technical, applications, or design advice (including reference designs), quality characterization, reliability data, or other services. PRA Audio assumes no liability and makes no representations or warranties regarding such services or items. You are solely responsible for your products and applications, including those using PRA Audio products. To minimize the risks associated with your products and applications, you should provide adequate design and operating safeguards.
PRA Audio does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which PRA Audio products or services are used. Information published by PRA Audio regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the third party, or a license from PRA Audio under the patents or other intellectual property of PRA Audio.
Resale of PRA Audio products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by PRA Audio for that product or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated PRA Audio product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. PRA Audio is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
You are solely responsible for the design, validation, and testing of your applications as well as for compliance with all legal, regulatory, and safety-related requirements concerning your applications. Industry best practices generally require that you conduct qualification tests on actual applications taking into account possible environmental and other conditions that your application may encounter. You represent that, with respect to your applications, you have all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards that (1) anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, (2) monitor failures and their consequences, and (3) lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause harm, and to take appropriate remedial actions. You agree that prior to using or distributing any systems that include PRA Audio products, you will thoroughly test such systems and the functionality of such PRA Audio products as used in such systems.
Unless PRA Audio has explicitly designated an individual PRA Audio product as meeting the requirements of a particular industry standard (e.g., ISO/TS 16949 and ISO 26262), PRA Audio is not responsible for any failure to meet such industry standard requirements.
Where PRA Audio specifically promotes PRA Audio products as facilitating functional safety or as compliant with industry functional safety standards, such PRA Audio products are intended to help enable customers to design and create their own applications that meet applicable functional safety standards and requirements. Using PRA Audio products in an application does not by itself establish any safety features in the application. You must ensure compliance with safety-related requirements and standards applicable to your applications.
PRA Audio may expressly designate certain PRA Audio products as completing a particular qualification . You agree that you have the necessary expertise to select the PRA Audio product with the appropriate qualification designation for its applications and that proper PRA Audio product selection is at your own risk. You are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such selection.
You may not use any PRA Audio products in life-critical medical equipment unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special contract specifically governing such use. Life-critical medical equipment is medical equipment where failure of such equipment would cause serious bodily injury or death (e.g., life support, pacemakers, defibrillators, heart pumps, neurostimulators, and implantables). Such equipment includes, without limitation, all medical devices identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class III devices and equivalent classifications outside the U.S.
You will fully indemnify PRA Audio and its representatives against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of your non-compliance with this section.
