But it's not "end of story". OP has a policy of specifically permitting
non-work use of the laptop, which means, by definition, there is
non-work data on the laptop which DOESN'T belong to the company.
That muddies the waters greatly. If it's a company laptop, and the
company says "YOU MAY NOT use this for anything other than business
purposes", well, then any data you put on the laptop must, by policy, be
in some way related to the business, so you can make the assumption
you're making. But that's not the situation here.
A valid point. The contract rather clearly states that anything on a
company computer is subject to inspection and clearly states that the
undersigned has no expectation of privacy on such devices.
As for disclaiming personal use, that I'm not so sure of. Must dig.
