Personal Transponder Lease Agreement

Terms & Conditions

You accept and agree to follow the Terms and any changes to them. We’ll let you know in advance if we change any of these Terms. You agree to all changes when you next drive on the toll highway. The Terms apply to all transponders you lease from us, including any replacement transponders.

How you use the transponder

We’ll register your transponder with the vehicle and licence plate number you give us in this application. You will attach the transponder to that vehicle according to our transponder mounting instructions located at 407etr.com. You must

not

use your transponder in other vehicles, including rental vehicles. If you do, you will be responsible for all resulting fees, and we may end this lease and ask you to return the transponder.
If your transponder stops working, return it to us and we’ll replace it for free, as long as you’ve followed the Terms. If we find that you misused or abused the transponder, or it was lost or stolen, you must pay a replacement fee. To replace a missing transponder, you must let us know immediately and provide a copy of a police report. You must also pay all fees and charges for the use of the transponder up to the time you report it missing.

Our responsibility under this lease is limited to replacing a defective, lost or stolen transponder.

Paying tolls, fees and other charges

You must pay all tolls, fees and other charges incurred in connection with your transponder or use of the toll highway. The transponder lease fee is non-refundable, even if you don’t use the transponder.

If you don’t pay, we may charge interest and applicable fees, temporarily or permanently disable all transponders you’ve leased, commence collection activities and/or legal proceedings, and you may not be able to renew your vehicle permit or get a new one.

If we temporarily disable your transponders, we may reactivate them after receiving full payment. All Terms will remain in force while the transponders are temporarily disabled and if they are reactivated. All tolls, fees and other charges are set out in the Fee Schedule and the Complete Fee Details located at 407etr.com.
Joint owners of a licence plate are both responsible (separately and together) for paying any amounts owed to us.
We decide how to allocate your payments to the amounts you owe.
If you get a bill that includes camera charges, call us within 30 days of the bill date to discuss them with us. If you don’t, you’re responsible for all applicable charges plus any interest.
If you choose to pay for your transponder lease monthly but don’t use the transponder for 12 months in a row, we may move you to an annual lease payment.

How we use your information

We may collect, use, disclose and retain information about you for the purposes described in our Privacy Notice and in accordance with Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act and Ontario’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, as applicable. For example, for the purposes of operating and managing the toll highway, we may contact you about your overdue balance, request a credit investigation or a consumer report about you, or exchange information about you with governmental agencies, credit reporting agencies, collection agencies, or other relevant service providers in Ontario or other jurisdictions. This information may also impact your application. Please see our Privacy Notice at 407etr.com for more information.

Transferring ownership

We may transfer ownership of this lease, or our rights under it, to another person or organization without your consent.
You may not transfer your rights or responsibilities under this lease.

How long this lease lasts

This lease starts when you sign this application. It continues from month to month until either you or we end it.

Certain Terms, such as those that help us to collect unpaid amounts, will still apply after the lease ends.
You can end the lease by giving us written notice and returning all transponders.
We can end the lease by giving you written notice or asking you to return all transponders to us, our authorized agent, or to a police officer. The transponders must be returned to the address above within 15 days of receiving the notice.
When the lease ends, you must pay in full all amounts you owe on your accounts. If you’re on pre-authorized payment, we may charge your credit card or debit your bank account until all amounts you owe us are paid.
The laws of Ontario govern the Terms which are to be interpreted by the courts of Ontario.
