TELUS Custom Security Systems (from herein referred to as TCSS) guarantees that the 24-hour monitoring provided by your monitoring station will remain the same for your initial term. In return, the Customer agrees to maintain the monitoring service for the term of the contract. If the Customer discontinues the monitoring service and/or payment before the contract elapses,, the equipment will be removed and the Customer will be invoiced 1) $136.50 removal fee, 2) original installation fee of $409.50 and 3) $75.00 for each free service call done. TCSS retains ownership of all equipment for the contract. We require 30 days written notice to cancel. After your contract has expired, TCSS will invoice your renewal fee about 30 days prior to cancellation. Your term will automatically renew for one year unless you give TCSS at least 30 days written notice to cancel.

TCSS office hours are generally 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday, excluding holidays we deem necessary. The monitoring station we choose to hire will be 24 hours every day. The monitoring station's knowledge of alarm hardware is limited. They monitor the system, they do not service the hardware.

TCSS's business is only the installation of the alarm system. As such, TCSS endeavours to provide the highest quality of service available. Both the Customer and TCSS recognize and agree that no matter how good the system is or how carefully it is installed and maintained, the possibility of failure still exists. As well, both recognize and agree that TCSS has no liability over what happens in the environment that the alarm system has been installed. Alarm systems can be bypassed and defeated by someone who knows how to do it. The Customer and TCSS agree that TCSS is not an insurer. Customer payments are for monitoring service only and must not be construed as an insurance premium. Notwithstanding any statute or rule of law to the contrary, TCSS shall not be liable in any way for any claim, loss, damage or expenses, including without limitation, and claim, loss, damage or expense relating to personal injury of the Customer or any employee, agent or independent contractor of or with the Customer, on whose behalf the Customer hereby contracts as agent, arising either directly or indirectly from the losses associated with failure of the system or service in any respect even if due to negligent performance (including gross negligence) or fundamental breach of this agreement by TCSS, its employees and/or authorized agents.

The Customer agrees to indemnify TCSS, its employees and/or authorized agents with respect to any claims, loss, damage or expense, including without limitation, any claim by a third party arising in any way hereunder. It is TCSS's recommendation that the Customer obtain a separate insurance policy to cover personal injury, property loss or damage in this respect.

The equipment which we provide to you as part of your service package is listed in Your Services and Summary Charges. Unless you have elected to pay for this equipment at the time of installation, it will remain our property and must be returned upon service cancelation or expiry within 30 days or you will be charged for the equipment at TELUS' then current rates. You are responsible for loss of or damage to such equipment other than damage caused by ordinary wear and tear or caused by us, including payment of applicable replacement charges where we determine it is not commercially reasonable to repair the equipment.

Once a piece of equipment has been installed at your premises you may not relocate the equipment to another premise without our prior approval.
