What Dealers Need to Know: End User Agreement

In past posts regarding the rules and regulations of the surveillance industry, we talked about the Wiretap Act and the intent of design. Now, let’s discuss the required End User Form for exports.

Each time we export a device on behalf of you – our dealers – we require you to fill out a form listing who is receiving the device and noting that you have done due diligence to ensure that you are shipping to legitimate customer. This means that you agree that your customer, the end user, will use the products in compliance with the Wire and Communications Act and any applicable or similar state and/or local laws and regulations.

 We require this for many reasons. First, our company is subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations. Any export, re-export, diversion, or transfer of any of our products or technology must be conducted in compliance with these laws. Secondly, it protects you and the validity of your company, ensuring that you are in adherence to the regulations as well.

So, while no company likes the seemingly endless amount of red tape, in the surveillance industry, it’s particularly important to know and abide by the rules – for our protection, your protection and the protection of your businesses lifeblood: your customers.

A copy of the End User Notification form will be provided for every export order.
