US consumer rights standard, I believe. Some freedom they have over there. Should be US only warranty, as it is illegal for all of the rest of the western world at the minimum. Norwegian law is minimum 3 years - 5 if it's expected to last for a long time. Less than a month is a liability parody.
There's no enforced warranty for products in the USA (you can sell a product with no warranty at all!) but the standard for tech products is at least one year, and credit cards often provide an extra year as one of their benefits.
