Unless there is an agreement in place between Lenovo and Customer, this Agreement, including associated warranty statements, license agreements, and any applicable attachments, is the sole and complete agreement between Customer and Lenovo regarding the Products or Services purchased hereunder. Any additional or different terms in any order or communication from Customer shall not be binding on Lenovo unless signed by an authorized representative of Lenovo.
Customer accepts the terms of this Agreement by clicking to accept these terms when ordering online or, when ordering by any other means, by opening the package containing the product. A Product or Service becomes subject to this Agreement when Lenovo accepts Customer’s order by shipping the hardware Product or making the software Product available to Customer; or providing the Service. Confirmation of receipt of Customer’s order shall not mean Lenovo has accepted Customer’s order.

Software products include computer software programs (whether pre-loaded or provided separately) and related licensed materials such as documentation.
