Support Policy
Our support is here to help you. Find out about the conditions when have purchased a product from us.
In case you purchase through a reseller, please address any support questions to them directly. They will help you to get started.  

In case you purchased directly from us, we will always do our best to help you get started but there are cases where we cannot offer free support. With UniSketch OS and the diversity of Device Cores we offer, combinations of configuring can be endless. 

Therefore we will assist you in getting started with a default mode configuration out of any of the SKAARHOJ Official Configurations, but if you wish to utilize a different combination of Device Cores or modify a SKAARHOJ Official Configuration support fees will apply.  

Prior to contacting SKAARHOJ support, please make sure you have followed instructions from the Installation and Operation Manual and specific Device Core manuals as most questions are answered there.

 
Return Policy
Here you will find our return policy.
Unfortunately we can't offer you any right of returning the assembled designs.

We will always quality check the products before they leave our production line and at this time they will conform to the functionality described on the website and demonstrated in videos as well as any individual agreements we have made. We believe this policy is a fair consequence of the fact that every unit that leaves us is essentially tailor made for you. 

 
RMA Policy
Here you can read about how we will handle our RMA (Return merchandise authorization)
In order to issue a return merchandise authorization (RMA), the following process has to be strictly followed:

Privacy Policy
This is how we handle and stall personal data.
Contact regarding personal data

If you want access to the information that is registered about you with us, please contact: info@Skaarhoj.com. If you have incorrect data or have any other objections, please contact the same place. You have the opportunity to understand, what information is registered about you, and you can object to a registration under the Personal Data Act.

As a customer, you have the right to access your collected data categories (Articles 15, 16 and 17) and you may object to the registration in accordance with the relevant rules of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Upon relevant inquiry, we will update, modify or remove personal information that we control, subject to any violation of any law.

We can refuse requests that are repeated without cause, require excessive technical intervention (e.g. developing a new system or substantially changing existing processes), affecting other people's personal data or requests that are extremely impractical (e.g. information from backup systems). All inquiries regarding this should be addressed directly to info@skaarhoj.com.

Protection of personal data

According to the law, your personal information must be kept safe and confidential. We store your personal information on high-security servers, that are located in controlled facilities. However, we cannot guarantee 100 percent security for data transfers over the Internet. This means that there may be a risk that other unauthorized persons gain access to information, when data is sent and stored electronically. You thus disclose your personal information at your own risk.

Personal data is deleted or anonymized continuously, as the purpose for which they were collected is terminated.

The rapid development of the Internet means that changes in our processing of personal data may become necessary. We therefore reserve the right to update and modify this Privacy Policy. If we do, we will of course make the date of "last updated" at the bottom of the page. In case of significant changes, we will notify you in the form of a visible notice on our websites.

You have the opportunity to complain about the processing of information and data regarding you. The complaint is filed with the Data Inspectorate (in Denmark: Datatilsynet).

You can contact SKAARHOJ ApS on:

Wrong product shipped 
SKAARHOJ sends order confirmation

Hardware defect
caused by the packaging
A hardware defect caused by the packaging of the product itself in the original SKAARHOJ packaging (hardware defect caused by a courier service handling of the package does not suffice as a hardware defect. A claim against the courier must be initiated)
