Compensation for recorded content

CamOne Tec will not be responsible in any case for any consequential or direct problems that will lead to a loss of recorded or edited data. Furthermore, CamOne Tec will not guarantee the content in case the recording or saving is not working properly. The above limitations are also valid in case the unit has been repaired. Do not remove the micro SD Card while recording or saving. Do not switch off or take out the battery before the recording has been finished or as long as there is access to the memory, indicated by a rotating circle.
