The decision of the Panel shall be final and binding on the parties with no right of appeal on any issues of law or fact and shall be delivered within thirty (30) days following the last day of the hearing in writing with reasons therefor. The Panel shall apply the procedural rules set out in the Ontario Rules of Civil Procedure, R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 194 to the extent that such procedures are deemed necessary and appropriate and are not otherwise dealt with herein.

In addition, you must comply with the terms of any third-party agreement applicable to you when using the App, such as your wireless data service agreement.

Microsoft Bing Maps Specific Terms
In addition to your agreement with the foregoing terms and conditions, your use of any Bing Maps functionality embedded within the Online Properties shall be subject to the Terms of Use found at http://www.microsoft.com/maps/assets/docs/terms.aspx.
Amazon Alexa Skills Specific Terms
In addition to your agreement with the foregoing terms and conditions, the following provisions apply with respect to your use of any Alexa Skills made available by Travelers Canada (the “Skill”). The Skills are a type of App that enable voice-driven interaction with Travelers Canada through devices that connect to the Alexa Voice Service (“Alexa”), such as the Amazon Echo Dot, Amazon Echo, Amazon Fire TV, and any device that has the Alexa app or is otherwise connected to Alexa (“Connected Devices”). Once you’ve enabled the Skill, you can interact with Travelers Canada by simply using your voice.
Travelers Canada may make available two types of Skills, General Skills and Linked Skills. “General Skills” are Skills that Travelers Canada makes generally available and don’t require you to be a Travelers Canada policyholder to use. “Linked Skills” are linked to an eligible Travelers Canada online account. Linked Skills may not be available in some parts of Canada or for all policy types. By enabling a Skill, you represent that you have the power, authority and capacity to accept these Alexa Skills Terms and enable the Skill. You can unlink your account from a Linked Skill by disabling the Linked Skill. If you re-enable a Linked Skill, you will have to re-link your account.
To use the Skill, you have to speak commands or questions to Alexa. These are considered “Submissions” under these Terms of Service. Travelers Canada doesn’t guarantee that Alexa will hear you correctly or accurately translate your question or command. Please do not send Submissions through Alexa that the Skill cannot recognize. You will receive responses to your Submissions out loud from Alexa. Travelers Canada is not responsible if any third parties overhear your commands, questions or responses. Any communication to Travelers Canada through Alexa will be treated by Travelers Canada as a communication authorized by you. And any communication from Travelers Canada through Alexa in response to a request received from your Connected Device will be treated by Travelers Canada as a communication to you. It is possible that Alexa (and the equipment Alexa is installed on) and/or Amazon will record your interactions with the Skill or with Alexa and collect data and information about your use of the Skill and Alexa. Consult your agreements with Amazon to learn more about how Amazon and your Alexa-enabled device treat those interactions.
By enabling the Skill, you are giving Travelers Canada permission to perform the actions and share with Amazon the information communicated to Travelers Canada or requested from Travelers Canada. All communications using the Skill go through Amazon and you expressly are agreeing to this requirement.
Once a Skill is enabled, it is possible for anyone to use the Connected Device to use the Skill. It is solely your responsibility to maintain the physical security of your Connected Devices. If the Skill gives you the option of assigning a PIN number, you should assign a PIN number and keep your PIN number secure. You are ultimately responsible for any actions or activity initiated through the Skill.
A Linked Skill may allow you to make payments to Travelers Canada, such as for your policy premium. By using a Linked Skill to make a payment, you authorize Travelers Canada to initiate payment(s) in the specified amounts. Any payments using the Skill will be initiated on the date(s) you direct Alexa to do so, but the timing of the withdrawal from your payment account will be based on the financial institution’s processing schedule.
Travelers Canada is not responsible for, and does not provide any support or assistance for, Alexa, Connected Devices, or for any other hardware or software that Travelers Canada did not design or write. If you have questions or issues with Alexa, please contact Amazon.
