USING ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES, ELECTRONIC ACCESS, GOING PAPERLESS AND SMS TEXTING

Online Access
For some Online Activities, FBFS permits "Online Access," which includes the ability to use a personal computer, mobile or other access device equipped with an active connection to an Internet Service Provider to access your FBFS accounts, policies, or other products and to perform certain transactions as available. You may register for Online Access via the Internet.

 

By electing to enroll in Online Activities, including but not limited to Paperless (described below), you certify that you are the person identified by your enrollment information. If you are not that person and/or you are attempting to access someone else's information, you are in violation of federal and/or state law and should exit this application now. Violations will be reported to state and/or federal authorities.

 

Information to be Provided Electronically

In order to conduct some Online Activities, you agree to receive information applicable to your use of the Online Activities delivered to you electronically. These may include policy documents, notices, disclosures, billing statements, quotes, updates, or other information that you request, transaction receipts, documents requiring your signature, authorizations, acknowledgements or any other documents (collectively, "Communications").

 

Your consent does not mean that FBFS must provide the Communications electronically; FBFS may, at its option, provide the Communications through non-electronic means.

 

Withdrawing Consent

FBFS may continue to deliver Communications to you electronically unless you withdraw your consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time as described below under Unenrolling from Paperless. If you withdraw your consent, the legal effectiveness, validity and/or enforceability of prior Communications will not be affected. Any withdrawal of your consent to receive Communications electronically will be effective only after we have a reasonable period of time to process your withdrawal.

 

Use of Electronic Signatures

As part of the Online Activities, you will have the option to sign certain Communications electronically by either checking the appropriate box or engaging in a similar online process as instructed online. You agree that by checking the appropriate box within or adjacent to the applicable Communications or engaging in a similar online electronic signature process, you are providing your electronic signature and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions in such Communications just as if you had signed your name to a paper document.

 

Hardware and System Requirements

To receive, access, and reply to applicable Communications you will need:

- a valid, working email account that allows you to read, write and send email;

- access to a mobile device that allows you to receive and respond to text messages, if texting option is chosen;

- access to a personal computer or other access device with Internet access;

- a web browser which supports the TLS 1.2 (or higher) protocol with JavaScript enabled;

- software that lets you get and open Portable Document Format or "PDF" files; and

- the ability to download or print Communications such as agreements and disclosures.

 

Your state may require insurance documents to be displayed in a particular font size. To ensure that Communications are displayed at the correct font size for your state, please make sure that the view size setting for the Communications is set to 100% and your browser resolution is 800 x 600.

 

Should we make changes to the hardware or software requirements for Paperless such that you may no longer be capable of accessing your electronic insurance documents or Communications, we will inform you in advance of the revised hardware and software requirements via an update to these Terms and Conditions.

 

System Requirements to Retain Information
To retain the Communications sent to you electronically for your records, your system or device must have the ability to either download (e.g., to your hard disk drive, thumb drive/flash drive, etc.), print PDF files, or print web pages and embedded HTML files.

 

Printing for Signature

In some cases, you must print, complete, and sign Communications with a pen, and then return them to FBFS according to the instructions on the document. To do this, you must have a functioning printer connected to your personal computer or other access device which is able to print Communications and the instructions on plain, white 8½ x 11 inch paper.

 

Going Paperless

 

As part of the Online Activities, you have the option to enroll in our paperless feature (“Paperless”). By enrolling in Paperless, you agree to access insurance policy documents electronically in lieu of delivery by the United States Postal Service (USPS) or other physical delivery method; provided, however, that, as required by law, we will deliver certain insurance policy documents, such as cancellation, lapse and nonrenewal notices, in paper format via the USPS. However, if the law changes in the future and permits such documents to be delivered electronically, your continued use of the Website shall act as your consent to receive such Communications electronically as well.

 

Please read the following additional Paperless Terms and Conditions carefully. By electing to enroll in Paperless, you agree to be bound by these additional terms. If you do not agree with any of these terms and conditions, do not enroll in Paperless. We reserve the right to modify these Terms and Conditions at any time. Continued participation in Paperless will constitute your acceptance of any revisions to these Terms and Conditions.

 

Your Paperless Responsibilities

 

Once you enroll in Paperless, it is your responsibility to keep your e-mail address up to date within your online profile.

We are not responsible for problems arising from e-mails sent to an inactive or out-of-date e-mail address.  Once enrolled in Paperless, it is your sole responsibility to ensure that the email address within your online profile is current and active.  Failure to do so may result in your missing important Communications. You agree that if we send an email message to you regarding any Communication or send any Communication to the email address you have provided us and such email message is returned as undeliverable, we will be deemed to have provided such Communication to you.

Those policyholders that provide a cell phone number will be enrolled in an alert system to share information about storm activity in your area.  To opt out, follow the instructions below.

 

FBFS reserves the right to terminate this SMS service, in whole or in part, at any time without notice. The information in any message may be subject to certain time lags and/or delays. You are responsible for managing the types of SMS texts you receive. If you have any questions or need help, text HELP to GOFBFS (463-237), or call 866-399-3237.

 

Charges for SMS Texting

FBFS does not have a separate charge for the text message service; however, message and data rates may apply from your wireless service provider.

 

By providing your consent to participate in text messaging, you approve any such charges from your service provider. Charges for text messages may appear on your mobile phone bill or be deducted from your prepaid balance.

 

Unsubscribing to SMS Texting

To stop receiving text messages, text STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT to GOFBFS (463-237) . By enrolling in this subscription program, you consent that following such a request to unsubscribe, you will receive one (1) final message from FBFS confirming that you have been inactivated in our system.

Your SMS Texting Responsibilities

SMS Texting Additional Limitations of Liability

Text messages are provided for your convenience and do not replace your monthly billing statement(s), which are the official record of your accounts. We do not assume any liability or responsibility for a failure or delay in transmitting the text messages to you or for any errors in the information contained in the text messages.

 

We also do not assume any liability for any losses or damage (a) caused by the disclosure of information to your mobile phone when the phone is another person's possession; or (b) to your data, mobile phone or other equipment caused by the use of text messaging, unless directly and solely caused by our negligence or willful default.

Before you provide them with this information, you should use caution and ensure that the aggregator company has appropriate privacy and security practices in place to protect the information you provide, or to which they are gaining access. 

 

We’re not responsible for the use or disclosure of any personal information accessed by any company or person to whom you provide your Website username and password. If you provide your Website username, password or other information about your accounts with us to an aggregation website, we’ll consider that you’ve authorized all transactions or actions initiated by an aggregation website, whether you were aware of a specific transaction or action. If you decide to revoke the authority you’ve given to an aggregation website, we strongly recommend that you change your password for the Website to ensure that the aggregation website can no longer access your account.
