EMERGENCY SERVICES - E911 BASIC SERVICEE911 BASIC SERVICE The Service does not support traditional 911 or E911 access to emergency services in all locations. Where we do not offer traditional 911 or E911 access, we offer a feature known as " E911 Basic Service ". E911 Basic Service setup is initiated when you subscribe to PhoneAvantage service using the address you provide, but our E911 Basic Service feature is not automatic. How Emergency Personnel are Contacted We contract with a third party to use the address of your registered location to determine the nearest emergency response centre and then forward your call to a general number at that centre. When the centre receives your call, the operator may not have your address and/or phone number. You must therefore provide your address and phone number in order to get help. Some local emergency response centres may decide not to have their general numbers answered by live operators 24 hours a day. If we learn that this is the case, we will send your call instead to a national emergency calling centre and a trained agent will contact an emergency centre near you to dispatch help. You hereby authorize us to disclose your name and address to third-party service providers, including, without limitation, call routers, call centres and public service answering points, for the purpose of dispatching emergency services personnel to your registered location.
