You acknowledge and agree that We have offered the Service, set its prices, and entered into this Agreement in reliance upon the warranty disclaimers and the limitations of liability set forth below. You further acknowledge and agree that (i) the warranty disclaimers and the limitations of liability set forth in this Agreement reflect a reasonable and fair allocation of risk between you and Us, (ii) the warranty disclaimers and the limitations of liability set forth in this Agreement form an essential basis of the agreement between you and Us, and (iii) We would not be able to provide the Service to you on an economically reasonable basis without these limitations and disclaimers.

Please read the Protection 360 by Assurant® Privacy Notice, and hereby incorporated by reference, carefully for disclosures relating to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information.

Modification to These Terms of Service

We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions of this Agreement at any time. Please check this Agreement periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Services after the posting of any modifications or changes constitutes your binding acceptance of such changes. For any material changes to this Agreement or any Guidelines, you acknowledge and agree that any such amended or modified terms shall automatically be effective thirty (30) days after they are initially posted.

Ownership and Proprietary Rights

The content, visual interfaces, information, graphics, design, compilation, software (including, but not limited to, the App), and all other elements of the Service (collectively, the “Materials”) are protected by United States copyright, trade dress, patent, and trademark laws, international laws and conventions, and all other relevant intellectual property and proprietary rights and applicable laws. All Materials are Our property, or the property of Our affiliated companies and/or third-party licensors. All trademarks, service marks, and trade names displayed through the Service are proprietary to Us, Our affiliated companies and/or third- party licensors. Except as expressly authorized by Us in the End User License section below, you agree not to sell, license, copy, modify, alter, reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, translate, edit, adapt, create derivative works from, or otherwise make unauthorized use of the Materials. You agree not to disclose, publicly perform or display, transmit, publish, distribute or provide the Materials to any other party.

Account Information

The Service is not available to persons under the age of 13 or to any users suspended or removed from the Service by Us. You agree that the information you provide to Us upon registration and at all other times will be true, accurate, current and complete. You also agree that you will ensure that this information is kept accurate and up to date at all times.

Password

When you register as a member, you will be asked to provide a password. As you will be responsible for all activities that occur under your password, you should keep your password strictly confidential at all times and follow industry best practices for protecting your account.

YOU MUST NOTIFY US IMMEDIATELY OF ANY UNAUTHORIZED USE OF YOUR PASSWORD OR IF YOU BELIEVE THAT YOUR PASSWORD IS NO LONGER CONFIDENTIAL.

We reserve the right to suspend Your account and/or require You to alter Your password if We believe for any reason that Your password is no longer secure.

YOU MAY NOT SHARE YOUR ACCOUNT PASSWORD WITH ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY REASON.

Electronic Communications

You agree that all Communications between You and Us will be conducted electronically. We may provide Communications to You by one or more of the following methods: (1) via e-mail; (2) on the App; (3) via text message or mobile message service; or (4) any other method to the extent permissible by law. With respect to text message and mobile messaging service communications, your carrier may charge you a fee for receiving the message. “Communications” means all notices, reports, documents, disclosures or other information that We are required to provide to You by law, or as reasonably necessary to provide the Service.

It is Your responsibility to provide Us with accurate contact information, including but not limited to a valid e-mail address. You must promptly advise us of any changes in your contact information. You can update Your contact information through the App. To view any Communication, you will need a device with Internet access and print or storage capability.

Payment Terms, Cancellation, and Refund Policy

Fees, if any, to be charged to you for your use of the Service, are disclosed when you register a device. You agree to pay any fees due for and incurred by your use of the Service. The fees for your use of the Service may be managed by your mobile operator. If so, please refer to your mobile operator’s billing statement for charges related to the Service, and contact your provider directly with any questions or comments related to these fees.

You may be offered a no-charge trial period before any charges are incurred. If you choose to cancel during the trial period you will not be charged. If you wish to discontinue using the Service after a trial period, you may cancel your subscription at any time.

Once you cancel you will not be charged again, but you are responsible for whatever charges have already been incurred for the current billing period. For example, if your billing cycle is on the 13th of every month, and you cancel on the 22nd, you will still have to pay for the current month, but you will not be charged again after that. In order to treat everyone equally, no exceptions will be made. Please keep in mind, a cancellation by you will not generate a refund – it will only stop future charges.

  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works on the applicable Service are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works on the applicable Service;
  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Us to locate the material;
  4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit Us to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted;
  5. A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law (for example, “I am under the good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted content that is identified herein is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.”); and
  6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed (for example, “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner, or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner, of the copyright(s) that is allegedly infringed by the aforementioned content.”).
