D.      Online Payments

1. General Description of Online Payment Features. Online bill payment ("Online Payment") is a service we make available to our Account Holders through a third-party payment processor that we have selected to support this feature. You may use Online Payment to authorize a one-time payment on your Account(s). You acknowledge that the origination of electronic debit transactions from your bank account must comply with the current laws of the United States and the rules, as they may be changed from time to time, of the National Automated Clearinghouse. You also acknowledge and agree that the Online Payment feature is subject to the terms and conditions that govern the third-party payment processor's website as well as by these Terms of Use.

2. Regardless of the payment amount or payment effective date you schedule using Online Payment, you are responsible for complying with all of the terms and conditions of your Account, including, without limitation, your agreement to make all payments when due and in the amount required by your Loan Agreement. When using Online Payment, you should schedule your payment in amounts and with an effective date that will satisfy your payment obligations. If you do not make a payment when due and in the amount required, we will have the rights and remedies available under your Loan Agreement or as otherwise available to us at law or in equity.

3. Payment Funds. Adequate funds must be available in the bank account where your payments are coming from when an Online Payment is processed. If a scheduled Online Payment fails due to insufficient funds for the full payment amount initiated, the Account will not receive credit for the payment. You are responsible to make timely payments for the amount owed in accordance with the Loan Agreement and these Terms of Use.

4. Online Payment Fees. While we do not currently charge any payment transaction fee to use Online Payment, our third-party payment processor may charge you a fee to accept your payment. We do not receive any portion of the fee that the third-party payment processor may charge you. More information about the applicable fee can be found when you click on the link to the Online Payment processor's website. In addition, you will be responsible for paying any amount you may owe other persons or companies related to the use of Online Payment or any bank account linked to Online Payment. For example, your bank may charge a fee in connection with electronic payments taken from your account with them for your Account with us.

Nothing herein relieves you of your responsibility to pay any amount, fee or charge you may owe us under your Account.

However, neither we nor any third-party service provider acting on our behalf will be liable in any way (including, but not limited to, payment processing errors or fees) if:

1. Through no fault of ours or our authorized third party, you have insufficient funds or credit in your bank account to complete a payment transaction, or if your bank account has been closed;

2. The Online Payment feature is not working properly and you knew or were told about the malfunction before you started the transaction, or should have reasonably been able to tell that something was wrong;

3. You do not provide us with complete, accurate, and current payment and contact information, or if you otherwise do not give complete, correct, and current information to properly complete the requested transaction;

B. Google Analytics, Cookies, Web Beacons, and Logs

We collect information related to your use of the Service using cookies, Web beacons, and event log information. We use the information gathered from cookies, Web beacons, and event logs to monitor website performance; improve website design, functionality, and security; assemble Web analytics and activity trends; and to measure, improve and customize the user's experience, and our products and services. We may use cookies, Web beacons, and other technologies from third-party service providers to satisfy these functions.

Google Analytics is a tool we use to collect information about use of the Service. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit the Service, what pages they visit when they do so, what other sites they used prior to coming to this site, and the IP address of the device used to connect to the Service. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve the Service. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with any of your personally identifiable information. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your device to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit the Service using that same device, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. You can read Google's Privacy Policy to learn how Google uses the data gathered by Google Analytics.

Cookies are small files containing strings of text stored on your device. We use cookies to authenticate you as a user when you log in, to track your session, to deliver content specific to your preferences and interests, and to provide other functions.

We may use session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted after you close your device’s browser or application. Session cookies do not collect personally identifying information from your device. Among other uses, session cookies allow us to deliver content specific to your interests and to improve navigation of the Service. We use persistent cookies for customer protection, as part of our authentication technology. Persistent cookies assist in verifying the identity of a customer who is attempting to log in to an account.

Web beacons are objects embedded into Web pages and your device that allow a website or application to count users and determine how long users view Web pages or applications. We use Web beacons for site traffic reporting, unique visitor counts, auditing and reporting, personalization, and other functions.

Log information may include Web requests, domain name and host, Internet Protocol address, your Internet service provider, referring website, operating system, browser type, browser language, date and time of your request, and cookies that may uniquely identify your browser. We use this information to enhance the functionality of the website and to make your access more convenient, secure, and efficient. We may also use this information to develop group profiles of its website visitors, to assist with systems administration, to resolve problems, and to prevent fraud.

You may stop your browser or device from accepting cookies or Web beacons. The Help portion of your browser should explain how to configure your browser's cookie handling. Your browser may have add-ons that may help you block Web beacons. You may have limited functionality if you block cookies or Web beacons set by the Service.

E.       How We Store and Protect Your Information

Your information that we collect through the Service may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which we or our subsidiaries, affiliates or service providers maintain facilities. We may transfer information that we collect about you, including personal information, to affiliated entities, or to other third-parties across borders and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world.

We care about the security of your information, and take technical and organization measures to protect your data against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access. These measures vary depending on the sensitivity of the information we have collected from you. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or via mobile device, or method of electronic storage, is absolutely secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

To protect your privacy and security, we take steps (such as requesting a unique password) to verify your identity before granting you access to your account. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your unique password and account information, and for controlling access to your email communications from us, at all times. Do not share your password with anyone and do limit your access to your computer or other devices by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.
