- You are providing your email address(s) to PEKA and to the Condominium Corporation in which you are a member, both jointly and severally;
- This change in service will not take effect until the final passing and proclamation of the Condominium Property Amendment Act. Until this time, you may continue to receive notices from the Corporation via regular mail. You may also receive some notices (depending on the nature of the notice) via email.
- You are the registered owner, or authorized agent on behalf of the registered owner, and have full right and authority to authorize this change in method of service for Corporation business;
- All information you have provided is complete, truthful and accurate;
- PEKA and the Corporation take no responsibility for the following:
- Emails returned as undeliverable, whether notification of the same is provided and regardless of the reason;
- Emails, or a portion of the content of an email (including an attachment(s)) not reaching the intended party for circumstances beyond PEKAs control (for example, if the sender or recipient internet service is disrupted during transmission; size restrictions of the recipients email account or if the recipient has intentionally or unintentionally blocked PEKAs domain for any reason)
- Emails being marked as spam or automatically routed to a ‘junk’ email folder;
- The addition of an email address(s) or the removal of an email address(s) as instructed by you or anyone claiming to be you or an authorized agent acting on behalf of the unit owner(s) provided information PEKA receives is in keeping with the Corporations current owner records;
- Loss or damage as the result of our email correspondence or attachments.
- The accuracy and completeness of information contained in email messages as a result of circumstances beyond PEKAs control.

Therefore, all correspondence from PEKA or the Corporation should be considered E. & O.E., regardless of the method of service;

PEKA will not use your email address to distribute Commercial Electronic Messages as described in Canada’s Anti-Spam laws, however, PEKA holds no responsibility for the content of email messages you may be sent directly from the Corporation.
You agree to indemnify and save harmless PEKA, its agents, servants and employees of and from all loss, cost, damage, expense, or liability whatsoever, which may be imposed on them, or any one of them, by reason of any present or future violation or alleged violation of any of the above terms or any term which may not be specifically noted herein but would otherwise be an implied term of this Agreement.
