These Business WiFi Terms of Use govern Customer's use of the WiFi Services and any Shaw devices and/or equipment used to support the WiFi Services (collectively, the "Equipment") and are in addition to Shaw's Terms of Service, including the Acceptable Use Policy - Internet and Customer's Shaw Business Wifi Services Agreement (collectively, the "Agreement").

CUSTOMER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR REGULARLY REVIEWING INFORMATION PROVIDED AND POSTED ONLINE TO OBTAIN TIMELY NOTICE OF SUCH CHANGES. NON-TERMINATION OR CONTINUED USE OF THE WIFI SERVICES AFTER CUSTOMER RECEIVES NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES CONSTITUTES CUSTOMER'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT AS MODIFIED BY SUCH CHANGES. If Customer does not agree with any of the amendments to this Agreement, Customer must stop using the WiFi Services and provide notice to Shaw of Customer's termination of this Agreement. In the event of conflict between any customer agreement and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will govern. Please refer to Customer agreement specific to the service which you are using.

Shaw will try to provide the WiFi Services by date agreed with Customer, but all dates are estimates. If Shaw encounters delays imposed by Customer, or by unforeseeable circumstances, that impact the date agreed, Shaw may apply reasonable additional charges and/or claim a reasonable extension to any date previously agreed.
