PAYMENTS/REFUNDS/RETURNS POLICY STATEMENT

Sunset Monitoring Services

Updated 05/19/10

At Sunset Monitoring Services our top priority is our client’s complete satisfaction delivered with unyielding honesty and integrity. We strive at all times, to achieve 100% quality service in every business transaction we conduct.  If for some reason, any of our customers ever feels their particular service and/or product requirements have not been met, or they feel they did not receive exactly the service and/or product we promised, we will work diligently with that customer to find a mutually satisfactory and reasonable solution to the problem if and whenever possible.  This may include, at the sole discretion of Sunset Monitoring Services; a modification of future services/products provided, a partial or full refund of a payment or payments received, or any other solution or solutions Sunset Monitoring Services may deem appropriate to the particular circumstances, on a case by case basis.  In every circumstance, Sunset Monitoring Services will make every viable effort we believe we reasonably can, to find the best, most appropriate and when possible, mutually satisfactory resolution to each matter in question.

Fraud/Suspected Fraud

At Sunset Monitoring Services, we have in place, several layers of stringent policies, procedures and processes, specifically designed to guard against and to aid in the prevention of fraud. Of course, no matter how good our systems and procedures are, there is no possible way to guard against all incidents of fraud.  We admonish all of our customers that the best way to guard against possible occurrences of fraud, is for all individuals to accept their personal responsibility for protecting all of their private and sensitive personal information from anyone and everyone, including close family members, relatives and friends who could potentially misuse that information, no matter how unlikely one may believe such potential misuse may be.

Website:

On the sunsetmonitoring.com website, we will never ask you for any personal information other than that, which is necessary and required in order to process secure payments; even then, this will only take place on our secure payments check-out screens.

e-mail:

Sunset Monitoring Services will never ask you to send us any personal information such as your SSN, d.o.b. and/or or credit card number(s) or other personally sensitive information directly by or through e-mail.  If you receive an e-mail appearing or claiming to be from Sunset Monitoring Services/ sunsetmonitoring.com, which asks for any personal information such as your SSN, d.o.b. and/or credit card number(s) etc. please do not respond to the message.  If you believe you may have provided personal information in response to such an e-mail, or on a website or pop-up window linked to such an e-mail, except as provided in the next paragraph, please call us right away at, the contact number below.

Invoice by e-mail:

If you have enrolled in Sunset Monitoring Services’ “Invoice by e-mail” program, you will be contacted promptly by the same Sunset Monitoring Services account executive, responsible for your ongoing service.  They alone, will provide you with the proper security protocols for you to be certain any e-mail invoices you receive, are in fact, the genuine article.  For security reasons, this initial “Invoice by e-mail” security protocol contact will not take place by e-mail and will take place before we ever send you any actual invoices by/through e-mail.  If you are contacted by anyone other than your usual account executive, do not provide them with any information and please contact Sunset Monitoring Services immediately.  If you ever have any questions or doubt of any kind, what so ever, about a communication received from Sunset Monitoring Services please call us at, 888-944-1082 or call your usual account executive, before proceeding.

Liability Admonition:

In certain circumstances, failure on the part of an alleged fraud victim to have exercised reasonable care and/or caution to protect their personal information or to properly and promptly report the misuse thereof, may limit the ability of said victim to pursue some of the financial recovery remedies otherwise provided under the law.  This may also limit the liability of third parties, such as Sunset Monitoring Services, having in good faith, accepted such information in regard to payment for goods and/or services provided.  Furthermore, under certain circumstances the alleged victim may be held accountable by the courts, civilly and/or criminally as an accomplice or accessory to the fraud.  In light of this, Sunset Monitoring Services strongly encourages our customers to exercise all possible care and diligence to safeguard any and all sensitive personal information at all times.

Handling Fraud/Suspected Fraud:

In the unlikely event of fraud or suspected fraud, Sunset Monitoring Services will work diligently with you, your local law enforcement agency/agencies and any other appropriate investigative body, to determine if, in fact, an actual incident of fraud has occurred.  Wherever appropriate, we will use any and all means at the disposal of Sunset Monitoring Services, to pursue aggressive and complete legal prosecution of the perpetrator(s) to the fullest extent allowable under the law.

Assistance Required:

Overpayment for Services:

By the very nature of Sunset Monitoring Services’ business model, which is primarily a pre-paid arrangement for services to be delivered, there will inevitably be circumstances, where services may be paid for, then for whatever reason, will not actually be rendered.  Whenever a paid service contract is terminated early, per the terms of the said service contract, whether the termination is made by the referring agency, Sunset Monitoring Services and/or it’s agents, or by our client; a prompt evaluation will be conducted by Sunset Monitoring Services to determine what, if any refund may be due.  Any refunds shall be contingent upon all of Sunset Monitoring Services’ equipment, which we may have assigned to the client, being promptly returned to Sunset Monitoring Services entirely undamaged, in a timely manor (generally within 72 hours or less following the end of monitoring).  Sunset Monitoring Services will, endeavor to make any properly owed, refund(s) within a reasonable period of time, which ordinarily should not to exceed a period of sixty (60) days, for any services paid for in advance, but not received.

Upon receipt of a properly tendered, written notice concerning the termination of service, given to, or by Sunset Monitoring Services at least seven (7) full days in advance of said termination, a full refund may be made, for any services paid for in advance, but not received, so long as no other monies are owed by the client, to Sunset Monitoring Services for any other reason(s) and subject to any and all additional terms of this and/or any associated service contracts/agreements between Sunset Monitoring Services and the client.

Over payments during an on-going service contract cycle, will be applied to up-coming/future service periods.  At the end of that client’s naturally expiring service contract, wherein by the nature of the natural expiration of the service contract, Sunset Monitoring Services had been provided at least seven (7) full days advanced notice of the termination of services, any excess monies, which may have been received by Sunset Monitoring Services, which still remain on account, may be refunded in full so long as no other monies are owed, by the client to Sunset Monitoring Services for any other reason(s) and subject to any and all additional terms of this and/or any associated service contracts/agreements between Sunset Monitoring Services and the client.

Refunds shall not, in any case, exceed the ordinary daily monitoring service fees pre-paid and shall not in any case include any handling fees, late fees, interest charges or special maintenance fees of any kind.  Sunset Monitoring Services will not refund any re-activation fee(s) paid on accounts previously terminated for non-payment, but subsequently re-activated regardless of how long the re-activated monitoring period lasts.  Please refer to your service contract for additional details and/or limitations regarding this policy.  You may also direct additional inquiries and/or claims for refunds by telephone to, 888-944-1082 or by sending U.S. Mail to: Sunset Monitoring Services, P.O.
