Upon such suspension, the locker user has to apply to CFSO via Campus-locker.info@polyu.edu.hk in order to continue using the locker. CFSO will dispose of the items found inside the suspended locker two months after the issuance of the warning notice or at the end of the usage period, whichever is earlier.

The University will not be responsible for any loss of or damage to such items.
