Sentinel Agreement
Sentinel Terms & Conditions
These terms apply to individuals (“Sentinels”) who register with ParkSentinel Property Watch to provide on-site presence for clients. By accepting a booking, you agree to these terms.
1) Role & scope

- Presence. You remain on or adjacent to the client’s site for the booked shift and report issues as instructed (e.g., call client contact and/or Police).
- Independent contractor. You are self-employed, not an employee of ParkSentinel or the client.
2) Conduct on site
- Follow all site rules and reasonable instructions from the client or ParkSentinel.
- No alcohol, drugs, parties, or visitors. Keep noise low and leave no trace.
- Use only agreed parking area(s). Respect neighbours and access routes at all times.

4) Short-notice & cancellations

- Client cancellation. Where the client cancels late, ParkSentinel may pay a proportion of the fee at its discretion.
- Your cancellation. Give as much notice as possible. Repeated late cancellations may block future bookings.
5) Insurance & parking position
- Your vehicle. You must be road legal (MOT, tax, insurance) and park safely.
- Public liability (PLI). If neither you nor the client has PLI for overnight presence, you may be asked to park on-street outside the perimeter (still visible) instead of inside the site.
- Dogs. Dog-assisted shifts only where permitted by client/site rules. You’re responsible for your dog at all times.
6) Safety & reporting
- Never intervene. If something looks wrong, observe & report as per the booking notes.
- Emergencies. If there’s an immediate threat to life or serious crime, call Police on 999, then the client contact.
- Welfare. Keep your phone charged and available. Take reasonable steps to remain safe and visible.
7) Branding
- Where supplied, display ParkSentinel magnetic signage while on shift. Remove and store safely after.
8) Data & confidentiality
- Keep client/site information confidential.
- We process your data per our Privacy Policy.
