Here are the applicable terms and conditions, should you decide to apply for the trial:
No installation or setup charges need to be paid for the demo.
FREE Trials will be subjected to availability of the requested products. Signing up on the FREE Trial doesn’t ensure immediate availability of kits. The confirmation message that you get just confirms your request for trial. Official confirmation will only be provided once we confirm the availability of kits and schedule an appointment with you.
We don’t entertain special requests, especially if the products are “out-of-stock” or “in-circulation”.
Please note that our free trial is just for “demo purposes”, and should not be exploited through any means or channels. Under any circumstance, if you refuse to return the kit to us, we, as a company, are entitled to file a claim for the unbilled amount and seek legal jurisdiction.
Any negligence/failure at your end to return the products in due time, due to any unsolicited reasons from your end, would entitle us to deduct the charges on a pro-rata basis.
