Welcome to the TELUS Skill (“Skill”). By enabling the Skill, you are agreeing to comply with the User Terms.
These terms (“Terms”) apply to your use of the Skill on Amazon’s Alexa service (“Alexa Service”) on any Alexa-enabled device (“Alexa Device”) through the Alexa application (“Alexa App”). The Terms are not intended to replace any other agreement that may apply in connection with the Alexa Service, Alexa Device and Alexa App (“Amazon Terms”), or any TELUS service.
As you read through the Terms, please note that: “we” and “TELUS” refers to TELUS Communications Inc.; and “you” and “your” refers to the TELUS customer who is responsible for using the Skill.
In order to be eligible to use the Skill you must: (a) be a customer with an eligible TELUS service and a TELUS My Account profile; (b) subscribe to the Alexa Service; (c) have an Alexa Device and an internet connection; (d) connect the Alexa Device to the eligible TELUS service account(s) (“Account”); and (e) enable and configure the Skill on the Alexa App. If your circumstances change and you no longer satisfy all the eligibility requirements immediately above, you will no longer be eligible to use the Skill and we may terminate your access to the Skill without notice to you.
The Skill allows you to use the Alexa Device through the Alexa digital assistant (“Alexa Assistant”) to communicate with TELUS about your Account. For example, the Skill may allow you to: (a) obtain certain information about your Account, such as your balance; (b) make certain changes to your Account, such as add a data top-up or roaming pass; (c) make a payment to your Account; or (d) access certain features or functionality of the TELUS service, such as make a voice call or send a text message. From time to time, TELUS may add to or delete the features or functionality available through the Skill without notice to you. By enabling the Skill, you are authorizing TELUS to share with Amazon the information requested from TELUS and/or to perform the actions communicated to TELUS. For example, if you request that Alexa Assistant tell you the balance on your Account, you authorize TELUS to release that information to Amazon.
To use the Skill, you will make commands and ask questions aloud to Alexa Assistant, and you will receive responses aloud from Alexa Assistant. Any communication to TELUS via the Skill will be treated by TELUS as a communication authorized by you, and any communication from TELUS via the Skill in response to a request received from the Alexa Device will be treated by TELUS as a communication to you. Amazon will turn those communications into a voice interaction (“Interaction”) that will be retained by Amazon to improve the quality of the Alexa Service. The retention and use of the Interaction will also be subject to the Amazon Terms and Amazon privacy policy. Consult your agreements with Amazon for further details. Your communications with TELUS via the Skill are also subject to TELUS’ Privacy Commitment. For details about the TELUS Privacy Commitment, please visit

We didn’t develop the Alexa Service or the Alexa App, nor did we manufacture the Alexa Device. It’s possible that Alexa Assistant will not hear you correctly, will incorrectly translate what you said, or even say something to you different than what we asked it to say. By enabling the Skill, you understand and agree that TELUS is not responsible for inaccuracies in your communications and interactions with TELUS via the Skill.
