The intent of the General Assembly of the State of Illinois in enacting this Act is to enhance the safety of consumers using automated teller machines in the State of Illinois without discouraging the placement of automated teller machines in locations convenient to consumers’ homes and work places. Because decisions concerning safety at automated teller machines are inherently subjective, the General Assembly establishes as the standard of care applicable to owners or operators of automated teller machines and persons who control access areas or defined parking areas in connection with user safety, substantial compliance with Section 10 and, if the owners or operators or persons who control access areas or defined parking areas are also issuers of access devices, substantial compliance, in addition, with Section 15 of this Act. The General Assembly establishes as the standard of care applicable to issuers of access devices substantial compliance with Section 15 of this Act. It is not the intent of the General Assembly in enacting this Act to impose a duty to relocate or modify automated teller machines upon the occurrence of a particular event or circumstance. Substantial compliance with Section 10 of this Act shall constitute prima facie evidence that an owner or operator of an automated teller machine, and a person who controls an access area or defined parking area, has provided adequate and reasonable measures for the safety of customers. Substantial compliance with Section 15 of this Act shall constitute prima facie evidence that an issuer of an access device has provided adequate and reasonable measures for the safety of customers.
