(a) The operator of a self-service storage facility has a lien on all personal property stored within each leased space for rent, labor or other charges, and for expenses reasonably incurred in its sale, as provided in the self-service storage act.

(b) For purposes of any claim or action against an operator involving a claim of damage to, or the loss of, personal property stored in a leased space pursuant to a rental agreement with the operator, the value of such personal property shall be limited by the maximum value of personal property permitted to be stored in the leased space under the terms of the rental agreement.

(c) The rental agreement shall contain a statement, in bold type, advising the occupant:

(d) The rental agreement shall include a query of the occupant as to whether the occupant wishes to designate an alternative contact to receive notices required by the self-storage act and space to designate such alternative contact. Failure or refusal of an occupant to designate an alternative contact shall not affect an occupant's or operator's rights or remedies under the self-storage act or under any other provision of law. The alternative contact, if any, shall not have any rights to access the leased space or to the personal property stored in the leased space unless expressly stated otherwise in the rental agreement.
