This applies even if CondoNow, any of its affiliates or any of their respective representatives are advised of the possibility of any of the aforementioned matters.

8.4 Under CASL (Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation), e-messages which include any emails, texts and other electronic communication ("e-messages") covered by CASL may be sent by you to individuals with whom you have a "family relationship" or a "personal relationship". With respect to the Program, you may send e-messages only to those family and friends of yours who fall within the following definitions. The definition of "family relationship" under CASL is narrower than you may consider to be your "family" and the definition of "personal relationship" under CASL may be narrower than you may consider to be your "friends".
Specifically, under CASL:

  • (a) an individual has a "family relationship" with another individual if (i) those individuals are related to one another through marriage, common-law partnership or any legal parent-child relationship and (ii) those individuals have had direct, voluntary, two-way communication. [This definition may not include sisters, brothers, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and great grandparents. Also, the two-part definition may negate the "family relationship" of certain spouses and certain parents and their children where the communications are either indirect, involuntary or one-way. Persons excluded may be included in the following definition.]; and
  • (b) an individual has a "personal relationship" with another individual if (i) those individuals have had direct, voluntary, two-way communications and (ii) it would be reasonable to conclude that they have a personal relationship taking into consideration any relevant factors such as (A) the sharing of interests, experiences, opinions and information in the communications, (B) the frequency of communications, (C) the length of time since the parties communicated, or (D) whether the parties have met in person. [Using social media or sharing the same network may not necessarily reveal a "personal relationship". The mere use of buttons available on social media websites (such as clicking on "like", voting for or against a link or a post, accepting someone as a "friend", or clicking to "follow" someone) may generally be insufficient to constitute a personal relationship.]
Therefore, for this Program and participation therein, you should only send e-messages to individuals who meet the definitions of "personal relationship" or "family relationship". To send e-messages to individuals who do not fall within these definitions, you must have the express or implied consent (as defined under CASL) of such individuals to send such e-messages and such e-messages must meet the other requirements of CASL. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have that consent before any e-message is sent to those individuals and that such e-messages meet the other requirements of CASL. You may contact CondoNow if you have any questions regarding the consent and other requirements.

8.5 Participation in the Program is a privilege that can be revoked by CondoNow at its discretion at any time and without compensation, including, without limitation, for any abuse by the Qualified Participant of any of these Program Terms and Conditions or any other actions deemed by CondoNow, acting in its sole discretion, to be deleterious to CondoNow, the Program or the interests of CondoNow's affiliates or Rewards Suppliers.

8.6 These Program Terms and Conditions may be different from what you know about the Program. These Program Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between you and CondoNow regarding your participation in the Program and redemption of Rewards, and supercede all previous versions. Except as expressly contained in these Program Terms and Conditions, there are no conditions, representations, warranties, express or implied, statutory or otherwise. CondoNow is the final authority as to the interpretation of these Program Terms and Conditions and as to any other questions or disputes regarding the Program. Except for Qualified Participants residing in the province of Quebec (where the Program shall be governed by the laws of Quebec and the jurisdiction of its courts), the Program and these Program Terms and Conditions shall be governed by the laws of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein, without giving effect to the laws or courts in the relevant geographical jurisdictions, and any claim, action or dispute shall be brought in the Courts of Ontario and/or the Federal Court of Canada in Ontario, or any other judicial district or jurisdiction as CondoNow may determine in respect of any and all claims, actions or disputes, or any controversies relating hereto. If any provision of these Program Terms and Conditions is invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining Program Terms and Conditions.
