It's always a good idea to determine what object is that we are measuring the lifetime off.

Is it you, the customer? The offering company, or the 'lifetime of the offer' - which can be any number, as here.

^^^ CORRECT ^^^

Unless expressly stated, it’s the lifetime of the product or offering, not the buyer’s lifetime.

Buy a non-stick frying pan with a “lifetime” guarantee on the coating. 3 years.
