3. Services and Products.

3.2. Use of Subcontractors for Services. Rogers may use subcontractors or agents to perform the Services, but Rogers is not relieved of its obligations by doing so. 

3.3. Software Terms. By installing or using Products, Customer use and the use by any End Users are governed by the Terms, the applicable Schedule, and the applicable EULA. 

3.4. Change to Services. Rogers may, from time to time, substitute a Service or with an alternative service or technology as long as it provides similar functionality as the Service. The definition of “Service” includes such alternative service or technology. Rogers is not responsible if any change in a Service affects the performance of equipment, hardware or software other than the Rogers Equipment or cause it to become obsolete or require modification. Rogers will provide Customer with at least 60 days’ prior notice of any material change to a Service. 

3.5. Suspension of Services. Rogers may suspend all or part of the Services or access to the Servicesimmediately: (i) if Customer fails to pay Rogers any amount by the due date pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement with Rogers; (ii) to prevent any actual or potential adverse impact to the Rogers Equipment; (iii) if Rogers reasonably suspects or determines that Customer or the End Users do not comply with the obligations set out in the Agreement; (iv) to maintain, repair, improve or ensure the proper operation of the Services or the Rogers Equipment; or (v) to comply with Applicable Laws. Rogers generally keepssuspensions to a minimum and gives Customer prior notice of such suspensions where reasonably practicable. 

3.6. Third Party Services. This section does not apply to the Products and Services Rogers directly sells to Customer under the Agreement. Customer takes responsibility for any Third-Party Services, including those for which, for the Customer’s convenience, Rogers includes on Customer invoice. Rogers is not responsible for the provision of Third-Party Services or to correct or fix any problems or errors relating to or caused by the installation, configuration, modification or use of any Third-Party Services or any components thereof.

4. Fees. 

4.1. Payment Terms. Payment in full of Fees and applicable Taxes for Services and Products, including Services and Products Rogers may have provided prior to the execution of the Agreement or any amendment thereto, is due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date, without any right to withhold, set-off or deduct. If Rogers installs Products in British Columbia that are considered under Applicable Laws to be affixed to real property, Customer agrees under section 80 of the Provincial Sales Tax Act of British Columbia to be liable for and pay any provincial sales tax on such Products as invoiced by Rogers. If Customer is legally authorized to purchase Services or Products free of Taxes, Customer must provide Rogers with satisfactory evidence of such authorization. Fees and Taxes not paid within the prescribed period are subject to a late payment charge at the rate specified in the invoice, which rate may vary from time to time, calculated daily from the invoice date and compounded monthly. 

4.2. Build Costs. If installation and deployment of a Service results in additional build costs not already covered by the Fees, including trenching, building access, building diverse routes, or upgrading access capacity, Customer is liable to pay such costs. Rogers will quote such additional costs to Customer and Rogers will not proceed with the required build unless Customer has approved Rogers’ quote. If Customer does not approve the quote, Customer may, as their sole remedy, terminate Service at the site requiring the additional build costs without incurring termination fees. 

4.3. Modification to Fees. Rogers may amend these Terms (including any Schedules and/or other terms and conditions incorporated by reference herein) from time to time by notifying Customer of such change by any reasonable means, including by bill message, text message, letter, email, amending these Terms or posting it on Rogers.com. Such change that results in a Fee increase may occur no more than annually during the Service Term, but at any time during a month-to-month renewal term. Customer’s continued use of the Service and/or Product following any such change will constitute its acceptance of such change. If the Customer does not wish to continue use of the Services or Products subject to the change, the Customer may cancel the affected Services and Products by exercising the termination rights in Section 6.1 (and paying resulting termination fees).

4.4. Disputed Charges. The Customer has 90 days after the date of the applicable invoice to dispute in good faith any amount showing therein by sending us a written notice with the details of the dispute. 

4.5. Credit Assessment and Deposits. Rogers may assess Customer’s credit worthiness from time to time as reasonably required to assess Rogers’ risk. Each credit assessment may result in the imposition of a credit limit on Customer’s account (details of which are available on request). Customer authorizes Rogers to obtain information about their credit history and acknowledges that Rogers may provide information to credit bureaus about Customer’s credit experience with Rogers. If at any time a credit review reveals Customer as non-creditworthy, Rogers may require Customer to provide Rogers with a deposit or require a change to payment terms. If Customer fails to provide Rogers with such a deposit or fails to honour revised payment terms, Rogers may either suspend or terminate any or all of the Services or the Agreement in its entirety on 10 days’ notice. Any deposit is a security for the performance of Customer obligations under the Agreement and does not bear interest. A security deposit may be released on the condition that satisfactory payment has been made by the Customer for at least a 12-month period, excluding any credits applied by Rogers.

5. Service Term.

5.1. Service Term. The Service Term associated with a Service is set forth in the relevant Schedule (the “Service Term”). 

5.2. Renewal. Each Schedule includes the terms and conditions upon which the initial Service Term may be renewed or extended, including the applicable Fees. If a Schedule does not contain renewal terms and conditions, then, upon the expiration of the then applicable Service Term, the Service is automatically renewed on the same terms and conditions for consecutive month-to-month renewal periods until terminated by either Rogers or Customer on at least 30 days’ prior written notice.

 

6. Termination.

6.1. Early Termination of Service by Customer. Customer may terminate a Service at any time by giving us at least 30 days’ prior written notice. If Customer terminates a Service, all Fees, Taxes and late payment charges due for the Service up to the date of termination are payable by Customer. Further, Customer must pay the applicable termination fees set out in the relevant Schedule. If no termination fees are specified in the Schedule, Customer must pay an amount equal to 50% of the remaining monthly Fees for the terminated Service that would have been payable to the end of the Service Term. If Customer terminates the Services without cause before the Services are fully provisioned, Customer is fully responsible for any of Rogers’ unrecoverable costs. Customer acknowledges that the termination fees are a reasonable estimate of liquidated Damages and are not a penalty. If the Agreement is governed by the laws of Québec, Articles 2125 and 2129 of the Québec Civil Code are waived and do not apply. No termination fees are payable byCustomer if they terminate the Agreement or Services for cause as set forth below. 

6.2. No Cancellation or Return of Products. Subject to section 9.1 and except as otherwise set forth in any Schedule, all Products that Customer orders will be charged in full and are not subject to cancellation, return or refund. 

6.3. Termination for Cause. Either Rogers or Customer may terminate the Agreement or any Service without liability by giving notice in writing to the other if: (i) the other commits a breach with respect to a material obligation and does not remedy that breach within 30 days after receiving written notice of the breach; or (ii) the other enters into a compulsory or voluntary liquidation, or convenes a meeting of its creditors or has a receiver, trustee or monitor appointed over any part of its assets or takes or suffers any similar action in consequence of a debt, or ceases for any reason to carry on business. Customer’s failure to pay any invoice when due or Customer’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 8.1 (Prohibited Use) or Section 3.1(Applicable Terms) of these Terms are breaches of a material obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Rogers breaches a material obligation under a Schedule, and Rogers has not remedied that breach within 30 days after receiving written notice, Customer is only entitled to terminate the Service or Product covered by such Schedule. 

6.4. Rogers’ Additional Termination Rights. Rogers may terminate any Service without any liability if:
(i) Rogers decides to cease offering such Service as a generally available service upon reasonable notice; or 
(ii) any change in Applicable Laws prohibits Rogers or adversely affects Rogers’ ability to provide the Services or to fulfill their obligations hereunder. 

6.5. Effect of Termination. Termination of the Agreement or a Schedule does not relieve either Rogers or Customer from any liability that accrued before termination became effective. 

7. Property Rights.

7.1. Rogers Equipment. The Rogers Equipment is at all times and remains Rogers’ exclusive property or that of Rogers’ subcontractors, as applicable, wherever located, including on Customer premises. Customer or Customer’s employees will not, and will not allow anyone else to, reproduce, change, alter or tamper with any serial number or other identifier showing on the Rogers Equipment. Upon termination or expiration of the Agreement or Services, Customer must return the Rogers Equipment to Rogers at Customer’s expense. Customer is responsible for the Damage to the Rogers Equipment except if the Damage is caused by Rogers’ negligence or willful misconduct. Customer needs to ensure that the Rogers Equipment is stored at all times in a manner and in an environment that conforms to relevant specifications Rogers may provide. 

7.2. Identifiers. Subject to Applicable Laws (including those pertaining to the portability of telephone numbers), Customer or the End Users have no right, title or interest in or to any network address or identifier such as telephone number, IP address, host name (each an “Identifier”) that Rogers may assign to Customer or the End Users.

11.2. Protection Measures. The Recipient must protect the Discloser’s confidential information using the same degree of care it normally uses to protect its own proprietary and confidential information, which degree of care will not be less than reasonable, and keep it strictly confidential.
