2. Warranty
All labour and material for newly installed Equipment is guaranteed to be free from defect for a period of 1 year. Company reserves the right to install substitute components of equal quality in its reasonable opinion. Extended warranty for parts and labour is available at additional expense. Any defective systems or components thereof shall be repaired or replaced at Company’s cost and no other reimbursement for losses, costs or damages shall be payable to Subscriber. A service charge at Company’s prevailing rates at the time of service shall be made if the cause of the service call is not covered by the above warranty. If in its sole discretion Company deems it necessary to remove Equipment or parts thereof to its premises for repairs, it shall use reasonable commercial efforts to provide a replacement part or parts in order to permit Subscriber’s system to function but does not guarantee that this can be done in all cases. Any warranty does not cover batteries. The within warranty is the sole warranty given by Company to Subscriber and all other statutory or other warranties, express or implied, are hereby expressly excluded. SUBSCRIBER EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT THERE IS NO WARRANTY GIVEN BY COMPANY AS TO FITNESS OF THE ALARM SYSTEM OR MONITORING SERVICE (“Monitoring Service”) FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND FURTHER THAT HE HAS NOT ADVISED OR MADE KNOWN TO COMPANY ANY PARTICULAR LOSS OR DAMAGE HE MAY SUFFER OR INCUR AS A RESULT OF FAILURE OF COMPANY TO PERFORM ANY OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

3. Limitation of Liability
Subscriber agrees Company is not an insurer and Company is not assuming any risk for any damage, loss or injury that may result upon the failure of the alarm system to operate or from the failure of any monitoring of alarm signals to respond to an alarm signal, in both events, for any reason whatsoever. Subscriber also agrees that Equipment can fail for reasons beyond the control of Company or response from the municipal authorities or designated contacts can be slow or ineffectual. As such, this system is a deterrent and does not provide complete or unlimited protection or protection in lieu of insurance coverage. Subscriber’s payment to Company is for Equipment and for Monitoring Service only and not for protection or insurance. In the event of any loss or damage for any reason whatsoever, Subscriber’s sources of reimbursement are his/her own resources or property and liability insurers. The failure of the Equipment to function or for the recipient of any alarm signal to react properly, for any reason whatsoever, including Company’s or its agents’ or contractors’ negligence or gross negligence or substantial or fundamental breach of this Agreement, shall not give rise to any liability, for breach of contract, tort or otherwise, on Company’s part except to return to Subscriber payment of a reasonable value of its Monitoring Service not performed, fixed at and limited to the return of not more than the annual Monitoring Service fee in the year in which any such loss occurs, or in the case of any Equipment failure to the return of the market value of such Equipment at the time of loss which the parties agree constitutes a genuine pre-estimate of Subscriber’s potential damages and is therefore agreed by Company and Subscriber to be liquidated damages. COMPANY WILL NOT BE LIABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR ANY LOST PROFIT, ECONOMIC OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE OR FOR ANY CLAIM OR DEMAND AGAINST SUBSCRIBER BY ANY OTHER PERSON. SUBSCRIBER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT AT THE TIME OF MAKING OF THIS AGREEMENT OR PRIOR THERETO, COMPANY HAS NOT BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE OCCURRING.

Subscriber hereby grants to Company a security interest under Ontario’s Personal Property Security Act in Equipment installed until payment is made in full. Any automatic dialing or communication devices installed belong to Company, which shall have the right to automatic dialing or communication devices or to deprogram communication, at any time when Company’s Monitoring Service is discontinued.

Subscriber understands and further acknowledges that using telephone service provided by the internet, broadband, VoIP or any other service for which Equipment is not specifically designed to utilize, presents additional risks for non-transmission of signals from the Equipment and on which the Equipment may not operate as intended. Company cannot properly perform its Monitoring Services if it is not informed of any change in the address, telephone number(s), telephone, cellular and internet connections, or emergency contact(s). Company is not liable for any delays or other problems resulting from incorrect information or for any other reason.
