Title. Title to the digital alarm communicator transmitter shall remain at all times in B Safe LLC.
Subscriber’s Duties and Responsibilities. It is the sole responsibility of the Subscriber to (i) confirm that your communication equipment (ie: telephone equipment) is compatible with the System, especially when there are changes to the communication equipment or services rendered to you by your communication vendor (ie: call waiting, answering machines, VOIP, etc., and (ii) test the System periodically, at least monthly and whenever changes are made to communication service for the Premise, and (iii) provide a 110 volt (non-GFI) electrical outlet in the vicinity of the control panel (using a GFI outlet may cause low power conditions as well as unnecessary service issues). Subscriber agrees that any claimed inadequacy or failure of the System shall be reported to BSafe LLC for repair service. The Subscriber understands that the signals from the System are transmitted over the Subscriber’s Analog telephone line service. If that service is out of order, off-hook, disconnected, changed, or otherwise interrupted or compromised, signals fro the System will not be received of known to BSafe LLC, and no action can therefore be taken. You acknowledge and agree that a second telephone line at the Premise is necessary to use the telephone while the System is attempting to communicate with the central monitoring station. The Subscriber further understands that switching to any digital, cable, internet or VoIP (Voice of IP Internet Phone) service such as Comcast, Skype, Vonage or other similar service, may leave the System compromised and unable to communicate signals to BSafe LLC. Subscriber agrees to notify BSafe LLC in writing before altering, changing, or discontinuing its Analog telephone line service or switching to any digital, cable, internet or VoIP service. Subscriber understands that additional equipment may be required to be installed at Subscriber’s costs to have the System operate correctly.
Activation of Monitoring. Subscriber understands that the monitoring of the alarm system will NOT begin immediately after the registration. Subscriber understands that in order for the monitoring to begin the communications need to be programmed and tested.
Transmission of Data or Voice via Traditional Telephone Line. You understand that for equipment which transmits signals via the telephone network there are various types of telephone line service, including direct wire, derived channel, multiplex, etc. and for equipment which transmits signals by radio that radio transmission of messages is probabilistic by its nature and that it can be affected by ground interference, atmospheric conditions, etc. You agree that the System is not infallible and you acknowledge that the System or the transmission of signals from the System by either radio or telephone may be interrupted; circumvented or compromised, g., cut telephone line. If contracted you understand that a two-way voice system enables BSafe LLC to “listen-in” to the Premise. If contracted you authorize and consent to BSafe LLC listening-in and release BSafe LLC and Representatives for all claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses due to BSafe LLC listening-in to the Premise.
Transmission of Data or Voice via Non-Traditional Communications. You acknowledge that if you have chosen a non-traditional form of communication, which includes but is not limited to VoIP, internet, broadband internet connection, or wireless technology, to allow your security panel to communicate with BSafe LLC’s Central Station that these types of communication methods may rely on both household electric power, wireless networks and broadband internet service, all of which are subject to periodic interruption or outages. In instances where a BSafe LLC customer requests that these non-traditional communications methods be utilized as the means of communication between their security control panel and BSafe’s Central Station, BSafe recommends that a backup system be installed which includes backup electrical power and backup communication with BSafe’s Central Station in addition to the non-traditional communication method. These methods of communication are not recommended. Subscriber agrees to pay any additional fees necessary to connect the alarm system to non-traditional communication equipment.
Digital Alarm Communicator. You acknowledge that: the System is non-supervised; if the communication equipment is interrupted by natural or human causes including, without limitation, the cutting of the telephone line, there is no indication of this fact at the monitoring station unless telephone line cut security is included as part of the System; and, if the communication equipment is incompatible, inoperative or interrupted, no signal will be received at the monitoring station; secondary alternative transmission such as cellular, radio or other available technologies may be selected by you to be included in the System at additional cost.
Release of Insured Losses. You hereby release BSafe LLC and Representatives for all losses, damages and expenses covered by your insurance policies.
Waiver of Subrogation. You hereby waive any rights your insurance company may have to be reimbursed by BSafe LLC or Representatives for money paid to you or on your behalf.

Compatibility of Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter (“Panel”). Subscriber understands and agrees that the Panel may be proprietary to BSafe LLC and that it may not be compatible with digital alarm communicator receiving equipment at other monitoring station companies.
Termination or Suspension of Service, Shut Down, Lock Out or Removal of system.

BSafe LLC may, in its sole and absolute discretion, electronically lock out the digital communicator transmitter (“Panel”) permanently in order to limit access to the Panel to BSafe LLC. Should you default hereunder, or upon termination of monitoring services for any reason, or if the System becomes a “runaway” system, or the system excessively signals BSafe LLC’s monitoring station without apparent reason, you authorize and empower BSafe LLC to, without limitation, do any one or more of the following: remove the system from the Premise (if installation and sale price not fully paid), disconnect the system, shut-down the Panel and/or the system and/or render some or all of the equipment incapable of signaling locally or communicating with any monitoring station, and refuse to unlock the Panel. The exercise of such rights shall not be deemed a waiver of BSafe LLC’s right to damages, and BSafe LLC shall have the right to enforce all other remedies or rights.

If you fail or refuse to cooperate or if you prevent BSafe LLC from exercising its rights pursuant to the previous paragraph, you shall pay to BSafe LLC the sum of One ($1.00) Dollar for each individual signal from the Premise received by the monitoring station, as agreed upon damages and not as a penalty, plus all actual attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by BSafe LLC as a party in any action arising out of or from or related to the previous paragraph or this paragraph.
