The Town of Riverview Council Notification Service is a service intended to provide subscribers, via notification messages sent through a system operated by QIT Plus Pty Ltd ACN 128 637 598, early notification of potential emergency and/or severe natural disaster and weather events relevant to a chosen location based on information from publicly available sources. You use this service at your sole risk.
Council-initiated Emergency News notification messages may be distributed, through the system, to subscribers by, or at the request of, Town of Riverview Council.
The Weather Warning subscription option issues notification if Environment Canada Public Weather Alert issues a weather alert for Town of Riverview Council local government area or forecast district. Some severe weather activity may not reach Environment Canada trigger levels, and thus a weather warning is not issued in this instance.
Notifications are dependent on the independent telecommunication networks. Emergencies can cause power outages and system failures, and notifications may not send or be delayed to communication services and the telecommunication network
While Town of Riverview Council and QIT Plus Pty Ltd endeavor to provide a service of a high quality, no such system can claim to be completely accurate or failsafe. For that reason, if you subscribe to this notification service you:
- 5.1 acknowledge and accept that:
  - reasonable endeavours will be taken to provide notifications to subscribers at the earliest opportunity
  - the messaging media utilised is neither real-time nor instantaneous
  - this service cannot be solely and wholly relied upon and other mediums such as radio should be monitored to inform of potential events and
  - you are responsible for updating your registered contact details, if and when they change
- 5.2 expressly agree that Town of Riverview Council or QIT Plus Pty Ltd will not be responsible for any loss or damage suffered, incurred or sustained by you in connection with this opt-in notification service, which includes, but is not limited to, any loss or damage arising from:
  - the failure or delay in warning you of an event
  - provision of a notification that warns of an event that fails to materialise
  - the interpretation of the magnitude or severity of an event
  - any inaccuracies in the predictions of the location of an event or
  - any negligence on the part of Town of Riverview Council or QIT Plus Pty Ltd
- 5.3 acknowledge and agree that Town of Riverview Council holds the benefit of these terms and conditions on behalf of Town of Riverview Council or QIT Plus Pty Ltd.
This notification service does not replicate or replace the National Emergency Alert System, which is the national telephone based emergency warning system used by emergency services that sends messages (irrespective if users have subscribed);
- via landlines (must have power) based on the location of the handset
- via mobile phones (must be switched on and in a coverage area) based on the devices location or billing address
Nothing in these terms and conditions is to be construed as limiting or derogating from your rights under the Law.
Notifications will only be received for validated mobile phone numbers and active email addresses.
SMS Notifications rely on independent telecommunication networks, which require power to operate and have limited battery back-up. Emergencies can cause power outages and system failures, and notifications may not send or be delayed to Broadband services and telecommunication networks. Ensure you have a battery powered radio for back-up to receive communications in emergency situations.
