Purchase of either the service contract or insurance policy is not required to purchase an Apple Watch, iPad, or iPhone. AppleCare+ benefits are in addition to any legal rights provided by consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction. AppleCare+ is subject to acceptance of the Terms and Conditions.
