Thank you for your interest in IDSealSM products and services. Please carefully read these IDSeal Customer Terms & Conditions (the “Terms”) as well as any supplemental terms set forth below that apply to the specific products and services that you select during the online ordering process (the “Supplemental Terms”). The related policies set out under Article 1 (the “Policies”) also apply to the IDSealSM products and services. If you do not agree to the Terms, applicable Supplemental Terms, and Policies you must not enroll in, access, or use the IDSealSM products and services. By enrolling in, accessing, or using the services, you indicate that you accept and agree to the following:

SERVICES: The IDSealSM products and services are provided by IDSeal, LLC with offices located at 1000 Progress Place, Concord NC 28025 (referred to herein as “IDSeal”, “we”, “us, or “our”). The products and services are described in these Terms and Supplemental Terms and on our website as part of the online enrollment process, and include all of the related features, benefits, systems, software, applications, websites and services provided for your use by IDSeal (the “Services”). The specific features and benefits of the Services available to you, the cost, and the term of your membership will depend upon the plan options you select when you sign up for the Services and will be confirmed in the e-mail you receive from us when you complete enrollment (the “Welcome E-mail”). You may cancel the Services at any time as detailed in Article 8 of these Terms.

DISPUTES: THESE TERMS PROVIDE FOR THE RESOLUTION OF MOST DISPUTES THROUGH THE USE OF BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND ALSO INCLUDE CERTAIN WAIVERS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, AND JURY TRIAL WAIVERS. BY ENROLLING IN, ACCESSING, OR USING THE SERVICES YOU ARE AGREEING TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES OR THIS AGREEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 15 OF THESE TERMS.

FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT: Some of the Identity Management Services include access to and use of information related to your consumer credit report. The federal Fair Credit Reporting Act as amended (“FCRA”) promotes the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in the files of consumer reporting agencies. Please review Articles 2 and 3 of the Identity Management Supplemental Terms for important FCRA and Credit Report disclosures. To learn more about your rights under the FCRA, you may go to www.consumerfinance.gov/learnmore.

AGREEMENT: These Terms and the applicable Supplemental Terms form a binding contract between you and IDSeal that governs your relationship with IDSeal and any purchase of, enrollment in, access to, or use of the Services (the “Agreement”). Please note that IDSeal may from time to time revise or amend the Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Article 10 of these Terms. The Services are made available to you only on the condition that you agree to be bound by the Agreement. If you do not agree, then do not enroll, access or use the Services. If you reside in a jurisdiction that restricts the ability to enter into agreements such as this Agreement according to age or for any other reason, and you are under such age limit or subject to such other restriction, you may not enter into this Agreement. By enrolling, accessing, or using the Services, you are representing that you have the legal capacity and authority to enter into this Agreement, and that you have reviewed, understand, and accept this Agreement without limitation or qualification.

1. Policies.

The following Policies apply generally regardless of the specific Services you select. Each Policy can be found via the links below and on our website:

  1. the IDSeal Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”), which describes how we collect and process personal and non-personal information when you use the Services, IDSeal.com and all other websites owned or operated by IDSeal (collectively, the “Website”), and the IDSeal Mobile Application (the “Application” and, together with the Website, the “Sites”);
  2. the IDSeal Cookie Policy, which describes how we may use cookies on the Sites;
  3. the IDSeal Website Terms of Use (the “Website Terms of Use”), which provide the terms and conditions under which you may access and use the Website; and
  4. the IDSeal Mobile Application Terms of Use (the “Application Terms of Use”), which provide the terms and conditions under which you may access and use the Application.

By enrolling, accessing, or using the Services you acknowledge that you have received each of the Policies, and you agree to the terms and conditions contained in each.

2. Enrollment.

An individual who signs up for the Services (“Enrolls” or “Enrollment”) by submitting the information required by IDSeal to create an account (“Account”), agreeing to these Terms and the applicable Supplemental Terms, and ordering Services for which required payment is made is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as a “member” or as having a “Membership.” For the purposes of this Agreement, “you” or “your” refers to such a member, as well as any other individual that is Enrolled by or receives, accesses, or uses the Services through such member. You may not Enroll anyone other than yourself for the Services unless you have the authority to accept these Terms on behalf of the other individual you are Enrolling, including if such individual is a dependent under the age of 18 of whom you are a parent or legal guardian (a “Dependent”) or you otherwise have all necessary permissions and consents. You will be personally liable for all fees incurred and damages that may result from Enrolling another individual for Services without proper authorization, and you agree to indemnify us for any damages we may incur as a result.

In order to Enroll in the Services, you must be a resident of the United States and be of legal age and have the legal capacity to enter into contracts in the state in which you reside. You also must have internet access via a compatible browser and a valid email address. A valid social security number (“SSN”) is required to use certain features or benefits included in the Identity Management Services. By Enrolling in the Services, you represent that you meet each of these qualifications. IDSeal reserves the right to determine or change the eligibility criteria for Enrollment or any member’s access to or use of the Services. We may decline to accept your Enrollment in the exercise of our sole discretion.

In connection with setting up an Account and using the Services, you will establish or be provided a username and password, and may also establish or be provided other access credentials to maintain the security of your Account (collectively, “Access Credentials”). You understand and acknowledge that any person able to provide your username, password and/or other designated security information will have full access to your Account, and you agree that by sharing your Access Credentials any such person is authorized by you to represent you for purposes relating to the Services, including receiving information about and making changes to your Account, and adding, modifying, or cancelling Services. If you do not wish for another person to so represent you or access your Account information, keep your Access Credentials confidential. You are responsible for all actions taken by third parties using your Access Credentials.

Enrollment requires you to set up your Account with your contact information such as name, address, and phone number, as well as providing the names of Dependents you wish to Enroll. To complete Enrollment, individual members must also provide a valid payment method accepted by IDSeal (the “Payment Method”), and you understand and agree that by providing such Payment Method you are authorizing us to use such Payment Method on a recurring basis to collect all amounts due under the Agreement. You further authorize us to use a third party to process payments, and consent to the disclosure of your payment information to such third party. We may determine and modify what Payment Methods we accept from time to time in our sole discretion.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, individuals that Enroll through an IDSeal plan where payment for Membership is made by the individual’s employer or other third party that has entered into a separate agreement with IDSeal for the purchase of Memberships (a “Participating Business”) are not required to provide a Payment Method in order to Enroll provided that the Participating Business has agreed to purchase the Membership for such individual. If you are such a member (a “Business Member”) please take note of the exceptions in Articles 7 through 9 that apply to you.

3. Personal Information; Electronic Communications. 

Some of the information that you must provide during Enrollment is personally identifiable information that is subject to applicable data protection laws (“Personal Information”). This Personal Information may be shared with our parents, subsidiaries, and other affiliated entities (collectively, “Affiliates”) and third-party data sources and service providers (collectively, “Providers”) in accordance with the Privacy Policy in order to verify your identity, charge the Fee (as defined in Article 6), and otherwise as necessary to process your Enrollment and deliver the Services.

At all times during your Membership, you agree to keep all Personal Information provided to IDSeal up to date, accurate, current and complete, including without limitation your email address.  You may update your Personal Information by contacting Identity Care via chat or at 1-888-325-5865, or for certain Personal Information by accessing your Account via the member portal located on the Sites (the “Member Portal”).  You agree that IDSeal shall have no obligation to verify your Personal Information and that IDSeal may rely on your Personal Information that you provide as accurate, current, and complete.

You agree that IDSeal may use your Personal Information in accordance with the Privacy Policy, and you authorize IDSeal, its parents, subsidiaries, and other affiliated entities (collectively, “Affiliates”) and their respective third party data sources and service providers (collectively, “Providers”) to obtain various information and reports about you and any of your Enrolled Dependents as IDSeal deems reasonably necessary or desirable in the course of providing the Services. 

You agree to the use of electronic communication in order to enter into this Agreement and to purchase Services and agree and consent to the electronic delivery of notices, invoices, and other communications that we provide in connection with your Membership (the “Communications”). You further waive any rights or requirements under any laws or regulations in any jurisdiction, to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, which require an original, non-electronic signature or delivery or retention of non-electronic records.

Communications will be sent to the email address that you provide during the Enrollment process as may be updated by you from time to time through the methods we designate. It is your responsibility to keep the primary email address listed on your account with us up to date so that we can communicate with you electronically. Spam filtering of emails may require you to add our email address to your email address book or “safe senders” list. You understand and agree that an electronic communication is deemed successfully sent once emails are sent to the primary email address listed on your Account, and our notice to you will be deemed to have been given on the first business day after sending by email.

In the event that IDSeal is unable to deliver email messages to you after multiple attempts due to reasons beyond our control (i.e., your email address is no longer valid, your email box becomes full, or your email provider sends our communications to a SPAM or junk e-mail folder, or uses a “safe sender” process), or IDSeal discovers that any other portion of your Personal Information is or becomes inaccurate, then IDSeal may suspend all or any portion of the Services pending resolution of the issue.

5. Use of the Services. 

You may use the Services only for your own personal, non-commercial purposes and in accordance with the Agreement, which includes any Supplemental Terms applicable to the particular Services. You may not use the Services for any illegal purpose‚ and you must abide by all applicable local‚ state‚ and federal laws, rules and regulations (“Applicable Law”) when using the Services. You agree that you will use the Services only for their intended purposes, which include securing your data and identifying errors, and mitigating, protecting against, or preventing identity theft, fraud, unauthorized transactions or other potential fraudulent activity, claims or liabilities.

You are solely responsible for your use of the Services, the use of the Services by any individual you Enroll including your Dependents and any other individual utilizing your Access Credentials, and any action you take or fail to take in reliance on the Services

The Services are not intended to, and do not, constitute legal, professional, or financial advice, are not intended to be a substitute for such advice, and may not be used for such purposes. Always seek the advice of your attorney, tax advisor, financial planner, or other professional advisor with any questions you may have regarding such matters. Our representatives are not authorized to provide any such advice or make any claims, guarantees, or representations of expected results on our behalf. No written or verbal statement by our representatives shall supplement or amend this Agreement. We do not guarantee that any particular outcome will be achieved through the Services.

6. Membership Term.

By Enrolling, you are agreeing to participate in a recurring membership that begins when your initial Fee payment is processed (or, for Business Members, when the Participating Business makes Membership available to you), and will continue for the Membership period you selected during Enrollment (annual, quarterly, or monthly) and then will automatically renew for the same period of time (twelve months, three months, or one month) until your Membership is cancelled or terminated as provided for in these Terms.  Each such Membership period is referred to herein as a “Payment Period” and your total Membership period, including all such renewals, is referred to herein as the “Membership Term.” If you do not wish to renew your Membership, you must cancel your Membership prior to the date that your current Payment Period expires (the “Expiration Date”) in accordance with Article 8 below, in which case your Membership will expire upon such Expiration Date.  For Business Members, the applicable Participating Business may cancel your Membership and end the Membership Term at any time, including without limitation in the event of the termination of your employment, and any questions related to the Membership Term or cancellation should be directed to the Participating Business. 

7. Fees and Payment.

Not applicable to Business Members: The fee due and payable for each Payment Period of your Membership is established at the time of your Enrollment. You are responsible for payment of any taxes applicable to your Membership, and the term “Fee”, as used in these Terms, refers to the fee due and payable for your Membership plus any such taxes and may also include amounts due for the Add-Ons that you elect to purchase.  Payment in full for the initial Payment Period is due upon Enrollment and thereafter on the Expiration Date of each Payment Period you will be charged for all Fees due and payable for the next Payment Period until you cancel your Membership. All Fees are stated and payable in US dollars. Applicable taxes will be determined at the time you are billed and may depend on your location.

We will attempt to charge your Payment Method up to three times, but if IDSeal is unable to bill you for the Fee via the Payment Method provided by you for any reason, then IDSeal may immediately suspend or terminate your Membership. 

The amount of the Fee upon Enrollment may represent an introductory offer applicable only to a certain introductory period (the “Introductory Period”), which Introductory Period will be disclosed during Enrollment.  IDSeal will automatically begin charging the applicable non-introductory Fee amount applicable to your Membership plan at the beginning of the next Payment Period following the expiration of the relevant Introductory Period.  Any Fee increase is deemed a Material Change subject to the notice and cancellation terms set forth in Article 10 below. 

You may have the opportunity to purchase, at your election, additional Services to be included in your Membership (each, an “Add-On”). The amount due for an Add-On shall be due and payable at the time of purchase, separately from and in addition to the Fee for your Membership, and may be charged on a recurring basis as applicable pursuant to the selections you make at time of purchase.  Details regarding Add-On offers may be viewed on the Sites. Certain Add-Ons may only be available for designated operating systems or have other configuration requirements. Add-Ons may be subject to Supplemental Terms, and by purchasing such Add-Ons, you are agreeing to be bound by the applicable Supplemental Terms.

IDSeal may make additional Services available to you at no additional cost for promotional purposes (each, a “Promotion”). IDSeal reserves the right to discontinue a Promotion at any time, with or without notice. IDSeal may, but is not obligated to, offer you the ability to purchase Services that have previously been offered as a Promotion. You may not be able to take advantage of a Promotion if your devices and operating system do not meet the system requirements for the Promotion or are not compatible with the Promotion. No refunds or credits will be issued in connection with Promotions for any reason, including for your inability to access or use a Promotion.

8. Your Right to Cancel; Refunds. 

You have the right to cancel your Membership at any point during your Membership Term. You may cancel by contacting Identity Care at 1-888-325-5865 Monday through Friday between 10 am and 7 pm EST (excluding holidays) or you may terminate in a writing sent to the IDSeal mailing address shown in Article 17. Residents of certain states may also cancel through the Member Portal.  If you cancel your Membership after the Cooling Off Period described below but prior to the expiration of the then-current Payment Period, then IDSeal will continue providing the Services until the Expiration Date of the current Payment Period. However if you request termination on a specific date or submit your request for cancellation through the Member Portal then IDSeal will discontinue providing the Services on the date requested but no partial refund will be given for the remainder of the Payment Period. You may contact us to resume the Services if you terminate in this manner but wish to continue receiving the Services through the end of the current Payment Period.

Subject to Applicable Law, all amounts due to IDSeal for Services received and Add-Ons purchased and processed prior to IDSeal’s receipt of the applicable cancellation request shall immediately become due and payable upon cancellation. The obligation to pay for such Services shall survive any expiration, termination, or cancellation of your Membership or this Agreement.  You hereby consent to IDSeal, at IDSeal’s discretion, charging your most recent Payment Method for such amounts when due.

Not Applicable to Business Members: Consumer protection laws in certain jurisdictions provide time periods during which you may change your mind and cancel the Services and only pay for Services that you have actually received (the “Cooling Off Period”). Unless a longer Cooling Off Period is mandated by Applicable Law in your jurisdiction, the Cooling Off Period is three (3) business days. You may cancel your Membership and receive a refund if your cancellation is received by IDSeal by midnight on the third business day after your Enrollment, or during the Cooling Off Period mandated by Applicable Law in your jurisdiction if longer. If you complete Authentication prior to our receipt of your cancellation request or purchase any Add-Ons or other Services for which IDSeal incurs a charge, your refund will equal the amount you paid for the Membership less the amount of such charges to IDSeal. Purchases of additional credit reports or scores are nonrefundable.

You understand and agree that if you cancel after three business days or the applicable Cooling Off Period, you shall not be entitled to a refund.

9. Our Right to Terminate;

IDSeal may terminate your Membership for any reason upon notice to you, which termination will be effective the sooner of the date specified in the notice or the end of the applicable Payment Period. Upon the effective date of any such termination, IDSeal will stop billing you for the Fees and your access to the Services will be terminated.

If you breach this Agreement, or IDSeal determines, in its sole discretion, that Membership Services have been obtained or used fraudulently, are being used for purposes in conflict with Applicable Law or this Agreement, or are otherwise being abused or used in a manner not contemplated by or intended by this Agreement or that may be harmful to IDSeal or its other users, IDSeal may terminate your Membership (or any Services included therein) immediately and without prior notice and IDSeal reserves its rights to pursue any other remedies it may have against you at law or in equity.

You may not be listed under more than one Account. Attempts by a single member to obtain multiple Memberships or to be named under more than one Account may result in IDSeal’s termination of all relevant Memberships and/or refusal to offer or sell Services to you or any other member of your household. 

In the event IDSeal terminates your Membership for convenience and not for cause, then IDSeal will issue to you a prorated refund of the Fees paid by you applicable to the remainder of the then-current Payment Period. 

Applicable to Business Members only: The Participating Business through which your Membership is purchased may cancel your Membership at any time and for any reason, including without limitation the termination of your employment, and IDSeal shall not be liable for any claims arising from such termination. 

10. Change in Terms.

Subject to these Terms and Applicable Law, and except for a Material Change, IDSeal fully reserves the right to modify, add, eliminate or otherwise change (collectively, “Change”) any portion of this Agreement or the Services (including any benefits or features thereof), or any term or condition applicable to all or any portion of the Services or your Membership, without direct, individual notice to you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, IDSeal will endeavor to provide timely notice of any Change on one or more of the Sites. Any Change may be made effective at IDSeal’s election upon the implementation date, the date IDSeal posts notice of the Change, or prospectively to a date chosen and specified by IDSeal.  Subject to these Terms and Applicable Law, by continuing to remain a Member or use the Services after the effective date of any Change, you acknowledge the Change and agree to be bound and abide by same, and your exclusive remedy in the event you do not agree to any such Change is to cancel your Membership as provided for in these Terms. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 10, any Change to the Dispute Resolution Provisions or other material Change made to these Terms following your Enrollment and during your Membership Term (each, a “Material Change”) may be made only by way of mutual consent.  In the event of a Material Change, IDSeal will deliver email notice to you of same at the address associated with your Account, and may also provide such notice in the Member Portal or on one or more of the Sites, and you will then have ten (10) days from the date of such notice to cancel your Membership by written notice to IDSeal, failing which, you will be deemed to have consented to the relevant Material Change and such Material Change will be immediately effective upon the expiration of such 10-day period without any further notice and will continue to be effective for the duration of your Membership Term.  In the event you cancel based on a Material Change, if you are not a Business Member then IDSeal will issue to you a prorated refund of the Fees paid by you applicable to the remainder of the then-current Payment Period. 

11. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless IDSeal, its Affiliates, licensors, Providers, Provider’s affiliates and service providers, and its and their respective owners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, successors, and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to the violation of Applicable Law, breach of this Agreement, use, misuse, or inability to use the Services or Sites (including, any use, misuse, or inability to use the content, services, or information contained in or received through the Services or Sites) by you, your Dependents, or any other individual that you Enroll or who obtains access to or uses the Services or Sites by or through you.

12. Notice of Prosecution.

Access to and use of password-protected and/or secure areas of the Sites is restricted to (i) Members accessing and using their own Account on behalf of themselves or a Dependent, and (ii) authorized IDSeal personnel or agents. Individuals attempting to access these protected or secure areas of the Sites without authorization may be subjected to prosecution. Failure to comply with the FCRA may result in state or federal enforcement actions, as well as private lawsuits. In addition, any person who knowingly and willfully obtains a consumer credit report or disclosure under false pretenses may face criminal prosecution.  You acknowledge and agree that IDSeal will cooperate with law enforcement in connection with any such actions or prosecutions. 

13. NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES; LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.

IN NO EVENT WILL THE COLLECTIVE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF IDSEAL, ITS AFFILIATES, ITS PROVIDERS, ITS PROVIDERS’ AFFILIATES, OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS AND SUPPLIERS UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES, THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, INCLUDING BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), AND OTHERWISE, EXCEED SIX (6) MONTHS OF THE FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO IDSEAL FOR THE SERVICES. THE FOREGOING LIMITATION APPLIES NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS CAREFULLY, AS THESE PROVISIONS PROVIDE FOR THE RESOLUTION OF MOST DISPUTES THROUGH THE USE OF BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND ALSO INCLUDE CERTAIN WAIVERS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLASS ACTION AND CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVERS.

  1. Dispute Resolution Generally.

By Enrolling and accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by the Dispute Resolution Provisions set forth in Sections 15(B) through 15(H) below.  If either (i) IDSeal or any of its owners, officers, directors, employees, representatives or agents (for purposes of this Article 15, individually or collectively, “IDSeal”), or (ii) you has any legal claim or dispute against the other, including, but not limited to, those arising from or in connection with, or otherwise relating to, (a) the Services, (b) the Agreement, (c) your access to or use of the Services or the Sites, or (d) the actions or omissions of IDSeal, its Affiliates or its Providers pursuant to this Agreement (each, a “Dispute”), then the party initiating the Dispute must first try to contact the other to resolve the Dispute informally in good faith. IDSeal must contact you by using the contact information associated with your Account. You must write to IDSeal, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 1000 Progress Place , Concord, NC 28025, or by email at legal@idseal.com. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither party is precluded from seeking injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction for equitable remedies. Nothing herein shall prevent us from enforcing this Agreement, including without limitation terminating the Agreement for your breach.

B. Arbitration
a. All Disputes (in any case, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal or equitable theory), to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration, pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (available at the following address: https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/Commercial%20Rules.pdf) or other applicable AAA rules, as in effect at the time of the arbitration and as modified herein. You may contact the AAA in writing at one of its locations (e.g., The Rotunda, 4201 Congress Street, Suite 125, Charlotte, NC 28209). You may also obtain additional information about the AAA and its procedures from the AAA’s website, at www.adr.org. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this subsection 15(B)(a), either you or IDSeal may bring an individual action against the other party in small claims court (or comparable court of competent jurisdiction) so long as the only parties to that action are you and IDSeal and the total value of the claims made in the action is less than the claim limit applicable in the jurisdiction in which the claim is filed.  Following the contact required in Section 15(A) above and prior to commencing an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, a party seeking to arbitrate any Dispute must send to the other party, via certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to you must be sent by IDSeal to the address associated with your Account. The Notice to IDSeal must be addressed to IDSeal, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 1000 Progress Place , Concord, NC 28025.  The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or Dispute; and (ii) describe the specific relief sought. You and IDSeal each expressly agree to attempt to resolve any Dispute by first sending the Notice to the other party prior to initiating or commencing an arbitration proceeding with the AAA.

b. If a Dispute is not satisfactorily resolved within sixty (60) days after the Notice is sent, either party may then commence an arbitration proceeding with the AAA.

c. If the amount involved in the Dispute is less than $20,000, the arbitration will be conducted, at your election, (i) in person in the jurisdiction of address associated with your Account, or (ii) by telephonic hearing. If the amount in Dispute is $20,000 or more, the arbitration will be conducted in Charlotte, North Carolina. Each of you and IDSeal has the right to be represented by an attorney in any arbitration.

d. The number of arbitrators shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties; provided, however, that in event the parties cannot agree on the number of arbitrators, the AAA Rules will control.  In all cases, the award of the arbitrator(s) shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion. Punitive or exemplary damages shall be allowed only to the extent the remedy is expressly available under Applicable Law. Discovery shall consist of interrogatories, document requests, and no more than five depositions of seven hours or less each, per side; provided, however, that the arbitrator(s) may award additional discovery upon motion by either party and a showing of need and/or the inability to pursue or defend claims absent additional discovery. 

e. The party initiating the arbitration must pay the applicable AAA filing fee when submitting its written request for arbitration to the AAA.  Unless otherwise provided for in the AAA Rules, all other administrative fees and expenses of arbitration, including the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, will be divided equally between the parties. 

f. Unless applicable substantive law provides otherwise, each party will pay its own expenses to participate in the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees and expenses for witnesses, document production, and evidence presentation.  The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to award the same damages and other relief that would have been available to the parties as individual claimants in court. 

g. Any award may be confirmed and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor IDSeal may disclose the existence, content, or results of the arbitration, except as necessary to conduct the proceedings, to confirm and enforce the award, to its own legal or financial advisors, by agreement, or as may be required by Applicable Law. 

C. CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER
EACH DISPUTE WILL BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL SPECIFICALLY AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A CLAIMANT OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP PROCEEDING.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION CONTAINED IN THESE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS TO THE CONTRARY, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD MONEY OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM.

G. Severability
If any provision contained in these Dispute Resolution Provisions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified automatically to the minimum extent necessary to render the parties’ agreement to arbitrate valid and enforceable.  If a provision conflicts with a mandatory provision of Applicable Law, the conflicting provision shall be severed automatically and the remainder construed to incorporate the mandatory provision.

Virtual Private Network (VPN)

The VPN feature provides online privacy by allowing you to connect to a VPN server so you can mask your IP address and send your internet data through a secure encrypted tunnel established between you and your endpoint so that you can keep your internet activity and location private. Please note that some countries and companies block the use of VPNs.

Login Encryption & Password Vault

This feature lets you scan your Device for traceable login credentials you have used with websites, portals, or service providers and then encrypt those passwords and store them in a vault for safekeeping.

Personal Profile Protection

The personal profile protection feature helps limit identifying information that could be stolen from your Device by making it easy to find and delete all the user profiles (phone numbers, email addresses, mailing addresses, credit card information, etc.) that are stored  on your Device in connection with “auto-fill” functions.

This feature allows you to deep clean your Device by removing browsing records, cookies, and other items that track your browsing patterns so that you can proactively reduce the chances of those credentials being stored and abused.  The set-and-forget setting lets you automatically block cookies that are suspected of being privacy-risking or malicious.

Document Scanner & Encrypted Documents Vault

The document scanner feature locates documents on your Devices that may contain sensitive information such as bank account or credit card numbers and other personally identifying information, and prompts you to either delete the files or store them using the encrypted documents vault feature so that they are safeguarded in one secured location, both encrypted and masked, as protection against your information being found and abused.   

Webcam & Microphone Blocker

This feature allows you to digitally block malicious attempts to access your Device’s camera and microphone by third parties that may try to eavesdrop or peep into your personal life.

We have implemented administrative, physical and technical safeguards designed to secure Customer Data from accidental loss and unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure.  However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to circumvent these measures or use your Account or Customer Data for improper purposes. You are solely responsible for the proper backup of Customer Data, and you are solely responsible for any loss, corruption, or damage to Customer Data or the Customer Environment.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH LOST OR DAMAGED CUSTOMER DATA OR FOR ANY DAMAGE, LOSS OR INJURY RESULTING FROM UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS OR USE OF THE SOFTWARE, THE SERVICES, YOUR ACCOUNT, THE CUSTOMER DATA, OR THE CUSTOMER ENVIRONMENT.

License Term and Termination

Your License commences as soon as you have received access to VPN+ (for example, by being provided a license key), regardless of whether you actually access or use VPN+.

Your License will automatically terminate upon termination of your Membership, and you will no longer be authorized to use or access VPN+ and you must promptly delete the Software from your Devices. Upon such termination, your Customer Data will be deleted. It is your responsibility to store or backup your Customer Data in an alternative location before this Agreement expires or is terminated

Virtual Private Network (VPN) Limitations

VPN service coverage, speeds, server locations, and quality may vary and be subject to unavailability for a variety of factors beyond our control, including but not limited to emergencies; third-party-service failures; or transmission, equipment, or network problems or limitations, interference, or signal strength; and may be interrupted, refused, limited, or curtailed at either IDSeal’s or a Provider’s discretion. IDSeal is not responsible for data, messages, or pages lost, not delivered, delayed, or misdirected because of interruptions or performance issues with the Service, communications services, or networks. IDSeal may impose usage or Service limits, suspend Service, terminate VPN accounts, or block certain kinds of usage in its sole discretion to protect its users or the Service. The accuracy and timeliness of data received is not guaranteed; delays or omissions may occur.

IDSeal has a strict no-logs policy for the VPN Service, meaning that the IDSeal VPN Service is provided by an automated process, and your activities while using it are not monitored, recorded, logged, stored or passed to any third party. We do not store connection timestamps, session information, used bandwidth, traffic logs, IP addresses or other data. However, to fight abuse and enforce proper license usage, an algorithm keeps the username and the timestamp of the last session status while the session is active. This data is deleted promptly after the session is terminated.

User Account Control / UAC

UAC is a security feature of Windows which helps prevent unauthorized changes to the operating system by prompting the user for manual approval. VPN+ may disable the UAC prompts relating only to the VPN+ products in order to increase the user’s convenience and solely for the purpose of better user experience and product ease of use. At any point you, the user, can uninstall VPN+ if you feel this is an inconvenience to you.

Virtual Private Network (VPN)

The VPN feature provides online privacy by allowing you to connect to a VPN server so you can mask your IP address and send your internet data through a secure encrypted tunnel established between you and your endpoint so that you can keep your internet activity and location private. Please note that some countries and companies block the use of VPNs.

Harmful incoming emails are blocked and quarantined and your computer can be automatically scanned for threats on a defined schedule. Easy to install and use, IDSeal Antivirus also includes extra tools and features such as a history cleaner and start-up manager to help keep your computer protected and operating efficiently.

Dark Web Scanner

The dark web scanner employs a unique algorithm that allows you to search for occurrences of your passwords or email addresses in databases that have been stolen by hackers and are being bought and sold on the dark web.

Login Encryption & Password Vault

This feature lets you scan your Device for traceable login credentials you have used with websites, portals, or service providers and then encrypt those passwords and store them in a vault for safekeeping.

Personal Profile Protection

The personal profile protection feature helps limit identifying information that could be stolen from your Device by making it easy to find and delete all the user profiles (phone numbers, email addresses, mailing addresses, credit card information, etc.) that are stored on your Device in connection with “auto-fill” functions.

Tracking Blocker

The tracking blocker feature works to block tracking records that include your personal digital information that can be used by third parties and hackers.

Digital Fingerprint Scrambler

This feature takes the data a website collects behind-the-scenes and uses to identify your Device, known as your “digital fingerprint”, and scrambles it either automatically or on-demand, creating a fake digital fingerprint in its place so websites won’t be able to track your personal browsing patterns.

Browsing Tracks & Scanner Cleaner

This feature allows you to deep clean your Device by removing browsing records, cookies, and other items that track your browsing patterns so that you can proactively reduce the chances of those credentials being stored and abused. The set-and-forget setting lets you automatically block cookies that are suspected of being privacy-risking or malicious.

Sensitive Document Detection

The sensitive document detection feature locates documents on your Devices that may contain sensitive information such as bank account or credit card numbers and other personally identifying information.

Encrypted Documents Vault

Store sensitive documents using the encrypted documents vault feature so that they are safeguarded in one secured location, both encrypted and masked, as protection against your information being found and abused.

Webcam & Microphone Blocker

This feature allows you to digitally block malicious attempts to access your Device’s camera and microphone by third parties that may try to eavesdrop or peep into your personal life.

Privacy Advisor

The privacy advisor feature evaluates the permissions on your Device, categorizes them by risk level, and makes recommendations regarding these settings to improve privacy. This feature is only available on Android devices.

PC Cleaner

PC Cleaner is a system cleaner that makes cleaning your computer a safe and straightforward process. Over time a computer becomes full of files that eventually clog the hard drive.

16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS CAREFULLY, AS THESE PROVISIONS PROVIDE FOR THE RESOLUTION OF MOST DISPUTES THROUGH THE USE OF BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND ALSO INCLUDE CERTAIN WAIVERS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLASS ACTION AND CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVERS.

A.  Dispute Resolution Generally

By Ordering and accessing or using the Support Services, you agree to be bound by the Dispute Resolution Provisions set forth in Sections 16(B) through 16(H) below.  If either (i) IDSeal or any of its owners, officers, directors, employees, representatives or agents (for purposes of this Article 16, individually or collectively, “IDSeal”), or (ii) you has any legal claim or dispute against the other, including, but not limited to, those arising from or in connection with, or otherwise relating to, (a) the Support Services, (b) these Home Support Terms, (c) the Policies, (d) your access to or use of the Support Services or the Sites, or (e) the actions or omissions of IDSeal, its Providers, or their relevant Affiliates pursuant to these Home Support Terms or the Policies (each, a “Dispute”), then the party initiating the Dispute must first try to contact the other to resolve the Dispute informally in good faith. IDSeal must contact you by using the contact information associated with your Subscription Account. You must write to IDSeal at IDSeal, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 1000 Progress Place, Concord, NC 28025, or by email at legal@idseal.com.

B.  Arbitration

a. All Disputes (in any case, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal or equitable theory), to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration, pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (available at the following address: https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/Commercial%20Rules.pdf or other applicable AAA rules, as in effect at the time of the arbitration and as modified herein. You may contact the AAA in writing at one of its locations (e.g., The Rotunda, 4201 Congress Street, Suite 125, Charlotte, NC 28209). You may also obtain additional information about the AAA and its procedures from the AAA’s website, at www.adr.org.  Notwithstanding the foregoing in this subsection 16(B)(a), either you or IDSeal may bring an individual action against the other party in small claims court (or comparable court of competent jurisdiction) so long as the only parties to that action are you and IDSeal and the total value of the claims made in the action is less than the claim limit applicable in the jurisdiction in which the claim is filed.  Following the contact required in Section 16(A) above and prior to commencing an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, a party seeking to arbitrate any Dispute must send to the other party, via certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to you must be sent by IDSeal to the address associated with your Account. The Notice to IDSeal must be addressed to IDSeal, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 1000 Progress Place NE, Concord, NC 28025.  The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or Dispute; and (ii) describe the specific relief sought. You and IDSeal each expressly agree to attempt to resolve any Dispute by first sending the Notice to the other party prior to initiating or commencing an arbitration proceeding with the AAA.

b. If a Dispute is not satisfactorily resolved within sixty (60) days after the Notice is sent, either party may then commence an arbitration proceeding with the AAA.

c. If the amount involved in the Dispute is less than $20,000, the arbitration will be conducted, at your election, (i) in person in the jurisdiction of address associated with your Subscription Account, or (ii) by telephonic hearing. If the amount in Dispute is $20,000 or more, the arbitration will be conducted in Charlotte, North Carolina. Each of you and IDSeal has the right to be represented by an attorney in any arbitration.

d. The number of arbitrators shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties; provided, however, that in event the parties cannot agree on the number of arbitrators, the AAA Rules will control.  In all cases, the award of the arbitrator(s) shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion. Punitive or exemplary damages shall be allowed only to the extent the remedy is expressly available under Applicable Law. Discovery shall consist of interrogatories, document requests, and no more than five depositions of seven hours or less each, per side; provided, however, that the arbitrator(s) may award additional discovery upon motion by either party and a showing of need and/or the inability to pursue or defend claims absent additional discovery.

e. The party initiating the arbitration must pay the applicable AAA filing fee when submitting its written request for arbitration to the AAA.  Unless otherwise provided for in the AAA Rules, all other administrative fees and expenses of arbitration, including the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, will be divided equally between the parties.

f. Unless applicable substantive law provides otherwise, each party will pay its own expenses to participate in the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees and expenses for witnesses, document production, and evidence presentation.  The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to award the same damages and other relief that would have been available to the parties as individual claimants in court.

g. Any award may be confirmed and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor IDSeal may disclose the existence, content, or results of the arbitration, except as necessary to conduct the proceedings, to confirm and enforce the award, to its own legal or financial advisors, by agreement, or as may be required by Applicable Law.

C.  CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER

EACH DISPUTE WILL BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL SPECIFICALLY AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A CLAIMANT OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP PROCEEDING. NO CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP ARBITRATIONS ARE PERMITTED EVEN IF ALLOWED UNDER THE APPLICABLE AAA RULES. EACH PARTY AGREES THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP PROCEEDING (“CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER”). EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER IS MATERIAL AND ESSENTIAL TO THE RESOLUTION OF ANY DISPUTE.  THEREFORE, IF THE CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER IS LIMITED, VOIDED, OR OTHERWISE FOUND UNENFORCEABLE, SUCH THAT CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP ARBITRATION IS ALLOWED, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF SECTIONS 16(B) ABOVE AND 16(F) BELOW (BUT ONLY SECTIONS 16(B) ABOVE AND 16(F) BELOW) SHALL BE NULL AND VOID, AND IF A PARTY CHOOSES TO PROCEED WITH ITS CLAIM IT MUST DO SO IN COURT PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 16(D) AND 16(E) AND ARTICLE 17 BELOW. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING ELSE CONTAINED IN THESE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS, THE INTERPRETATION, APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY, AND VALIDITY OF THE CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER AND ANY ATTENDANT QUESTION OR DISPUTE REGARDING THE VOIDANCE OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 16(B) ABOVE, SHALL IN EACH CASE BE DECIDED ONLY BY A COURT AND NOT BY AN ARBITRATOR.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION CONTAINED IN THESE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS TO THE CONTRARY, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD MONEY OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM. NO CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, GROUP, OR APPLICABLE PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL THEORIES OF LIABILITY, OR PRAYERS FOR RELIEF, MAY BE MAINTAINED IN ANY ARBITRATION HELD PURSUANT TO THESE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS.

D.  CLASS ACTION WAIVER

IN THE EVENT ANY DISPUTE PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN THROUGH ARBITRATION, FOR ANY REASON, EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL AGREE THAT SUCH DISPUTE WILL ONLY BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL SPECIFICALLY AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP PROCEEDING.

E.  JURY TRIAL WAIVER

TO THE EXTENT ANY DISPUTE PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN THROUGH ARBITRATION, FOR ANY REASON, IF NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

F.  Delegation to Arbitrator

Except as provided in Section 16(C) above, you and IDSeal acknowledge and agree that the arbitrator(s), and not any federal, state, or local court, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or validity of these Dispute Resolution Provisions, including without limitation any claim that these Dispute Resolution Provisions are void or voidable.

G.  Severability

If any provision contained in these Dispute Resolution Provisions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified automatically to the minimum extent necessary to render the parties’ agreement to arbitrate valid and enforceable.  If a provision conflicts with a mandatory provision of Applicable Law, the conflicting provision shall be severed automatically and the remainder construed to incorporate the mandatory provision. In the event of such severance or modification, the remainder shall not be affected.

H.  Termination and Survival

These Dispute Resolution Provisions shall remain in effect even after the expiration or termination of your Subscription or use of the Sites.

17. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. 

These Home Support Terms, including their formation, construction, interpretation, and enforceability, are governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the law of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its choice of law rules.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of you and IDSeal acknowledge and agree that the relationship between you is an interstate commerce transaction and, accordingly, the Dispute Resolution Provisions set forth in Article 16 above, and the interpretation and the enforceability of the Dispute Resolution Provisions, are and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, and no state law shall apply if, and to the extent such state law is preempted, by the Federal Arbitration Act.  Subject to the foregoing, the substantive law of the State of North Carolina shall govern the substance of any Dispute arbitrated under the Dispute Resolution Provisions.  Further, any court proceedings between you and IDSeal shall be governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its choice of law rules, and such proceedings shall take place in North Carolina; provided, however, that if you bring a small claims action as permitted in subsection 16(B)(b) above, you may do so in the jurisdiction of the address associated with your Subscription Account.  Subject to the arbitration requirements contained in Section 16(B) above, for any court action brought in a jurisdiction consistent with the foregoing sentence, each of you and IDSeal agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such court and waive any objection as to venue or inconvenient forum.

Our products, including IDSeal Pro-Tec, IDSeal Antivirus, and IDSeal PC Cleaner may need to send some private data as part of their core operation which you have subscribed to and elected to install and /or pay for as part of your premium license registration/subscription.

This data is deleted promptly after the session is terminated.

Our VPN feature is a derivative work of a VPN service provided by Private Communications Corporation, which utilizes OpenVPN as its underlying technology, an open source software that uses VPN techniques to create secure point-to-point or site-to site connections in routed or bridged configurations and remote access facilities. OpenVPN is licensed under both the terms of the OpenVPN license and GPLv2.

You agree to comply with such provider’s terms of service and that the third party provider is solely responsible for delivery of its service(s) to you and your use of them. Third party services include, but are not limited to, certain technical support, portal, training, music, gaming and other services that IDSeal may elect to make available from time to time. Violation of any such third party provider’s terms of service may, in IDSeal’s sole discretion, result in the termination of your Subscription.

8. Support Services Fee; Payment Method. 

The monthly fee due and payable for your Subscription is established at the time of your Order and disclosed to you during the Order process.  You are responsible for payment of any taxes applicable to your Subscription, and the term “Subscription Fee”, as used in these Home Support Terms, refers to the monthly fee due and payable for your Subscription plus any such taxes.  For each monthly Payment Period, your Subscription Fee will billed, in advance, to the credit or debit card you authorized for billing during the Order process (your “Payment Method”).  If your Payment Method expires or otherwise becomes invalid during your Subscription Term, we will notify you in an attempt to update your Payment Method so your Subscription can remain active. If IDSeal is unable to bill you for the Subscription Fee via the Payment Method provided by you for any reason, then IDSeal may immediately suspend or terminate your Subscription upon notice to you.

9. Fee Increases; Additional Services. 

The amount of the Subscription Fee at the time of your Order may represent an introductory offer applicable only to a certain introductory period (the “Introductory Period”), which Introductory Period will be disclosed during the Order process.  IDSeal will automatically begin charging you the applicable non-introductory Subscription Fee amount applicable to your Support Services Plan (available on the Website) following the expiration of the relevant Introductory Period.

You may have the opportunity to purchase, at your election, additional features or benefits to be included in your Subscription (each, an “Upgrade”). The amount due for an Upgrade shall be due and payable at the time of purchase, separately from and in addition to the Subscription Fee.  Details regarding Upgrade offers may be viewed on the Website.  In addition to Upgrades, IDSeal reserves the right to charge an additional fee to perform any services that you request that are not covered by Support Services Plan as described in the relevant Product Description (available on the Website), or to refuse to perform any such service in IDSeal’s sole discretion.

10. Your Right to Cancel. 

You have the right to cancel your Subscription at any time through your Subscription Account Portal or by contacting IDSeal at 1-888-325-5865.  If you cancel your Subscription prior to the expiration of the then-current Payment Period, IDSeal will continue providing the Support Services through the end of such Payment Period, and your Subscription will terminate upon the expiration of that Payment Period.  Because your monthly Subscription continues through the end of the Payment Period in which you cancel your Subscription, IDSeal will not refund any Subscription Fees based on your cancellation of your Subscription or any Support Services included therein (subject to Applicable Law and these Home Support Terms).  Amounts due for Upgrades purchased and processed prior to IDSeal’s receipt of a cancellation request may be billed to you following the relevant termination date, and will be due and payable upon receipt. 

11. IDSeal Right to Terminate; Indemnification. 

IDSeal may terminate your Subscription upon notice to you, which termination will be effective as of the end of the applicable Payment Period. Upon the effective date of any such termination, IDSeal will stop billing you for the Subscription Fees and your access to the Support Services will be terminated. If IDSeal determines, in its sole discretion, that Support Services have been obtained or used fraudulently or in violation of Applicable Law, are being used for purposes in conflict with Applicable Law, the Policies or these Home Support Terms, or are otherwise being abused or used in a manner not contemplated by or intended by these Home Support Terms or the Policies, IDSeal may terminate your Subscription (or any Support Services included therein) immediately and without prior notice to you, and IDSeal reserves its rights to pursue any other remedies it may have against you at law or in equity. You may not be listed under more than one Subscription Account. Attempts by a single party to obtain multiple Subscriptions or to be named under more than one Subscription Account may result in IDSeal’s termination of all relevant Subscriptions and/or refusal to offer or sell the Support Services to you.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless IDSeal, its Affiliates, licensors, Providers, Provider’s Affiliates and service providers, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, successors, and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising out of or relating to your (i) violation of Applicable Law; (ii) breach under these Home Support Terms or the Policies; (iii) use of the Website, the Support Services, or any other IDSeal services or products other than as expressly authorized by Applicable Law, these Home Support Terms or the Policies; and (iv) use of any information obtained from the Sites.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, IDSeal will endeavor to provide timely notice of any Change on one or more of the Sites. Any Change may be made effective at IDSeal’s election upon the implementation date, the date IDSeal posts notice of the Change, or prospectively to a date chosen and specified by IDSeal.  Subject to these Home Support Terms and Applicable Law, if you fail to cancel your Subscription or you use the Support Services after the effective date of any Change, you acknowledge the Change and agree to be bound and abide by same, and your exclusive remedy in the event you do not agree to any such Change is to cancel your Subscription as provided for in these Home Support Terms.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 12, any Change to the Dispute Resolution Provisions or other material Change made to these Home Support Terms following your Order and during your Subscription Term (each, a “Material Change”) may be made only by way of mutual consent.  In the event of a Material Change, IDSeal will deliver email notice to you of same at the address associated with your Subscription Account, and may also provide such notice in the Subscription Account Portal or on one or more of the Sites, and you will then have ten (10) days from the date of such notice to cancel your Subscription by written notice to IDSeal, failing which, you will be deemed to have consented to the relevant Material Change and such Material Change will be immediately effective upon the expiration of such 10-day period without any further notice and will continue to be effective for the duration of your Subscription Term, subject to these Home Support Terms.

16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS CAREFULLY, AS THESE PROVISIONS PROVIDE FOR THE RESOLUTION OF MOST DISPUTES THROUGH THE USE OF BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND ALSO INCLUDE CERTAIN WAIVERS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLASS ACTION AND CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVERS.

A.  Dispute Resolution Generally

By Ordering and accessing or using the Support Services, you agree to be bound by the Dispute Resolution Provisions set forth in Sections 16(B) through 16(H) below.  If either (i) IDSeal or any of its owners, officers, directors, employees, representatives or agents (for purposes of this Article 16, individually or collectively, “IDSeal”), or (ii) you has any legal claim or dispute against the other, including, but not limited to, those arising from or in connection with, or otherwise relating to, (a) the Support Services, (b) these Home Support Terms, (c) the Policies, (d) your access to or use of the Support Services or the Sites, or (e) the actions or omissions of IDSeal, its Providers, or their relevant Affiliates pursuant to these Home Support Terms or the Policies (each, a “Dispute”), then the party initiating the Dispute must first try to contact the other to resolve the Dispute informally in good faith. IDSeal must contact you by using the contact information associated with your Subscription Account. You must write to IDSeal at IDSeal, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 1000 Progress Place, Concord, NC 28025, or by email at legal@idseal.com.

B.  Arbitration

a. All Disputes (in any case, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal or equitable theory), to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration, pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (available at the following address: https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/Commercial%20Rules.pdf or other applicable AAA rules, as in effect at the time of the arbitration and as modified herein. You may contact the AAA in writing at one of its locations (e.g., The Rotunda, 4201 Congress Street, Suite 125, Charlotte, NC 28209). You may also obtain additional information about the AAA and its procedures from the AAA’s website, at www.adr.org.  Notwithstanding the foregoing in this subsection 16(B)(a), either you or IDSeal may bring an individual action against the other party in small claims court (or comparable court of competent jurisdiction) so long as the only parties to that action are you and IDSeal and the total value of the claims made in the action is less than the claim limit applicable in the jurisdiction in which the claim is filed.  Following the contact required in Section 16(A) above and prior to commencing an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, a party seeking to arbitrate any Dispute must send to the other party, via certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to you must be sent by IDSeal to the address associated with your Account. The Notice to IDSeal must be addressed to IDSeal, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, 1000 Progress Place NE, Concord, NC 28025.  The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or Dispute; and (ii) describe the specific relief sought. You and IDSeal each expressly agree to attempt to resolve any Dispute by first sending the Notice to the other party prior to initiating or commencing an arbitration proceeding with the AAA.

b. If a Dispute is not satisfactorily resolved within sixty (60) days after the Notice is sent, either party may then commence an arbitration proceeding with the AAA.

c. If the amount involved in the Dispute is less than $20,000, the arbitration will be conducted, at your election, (i) in person in the jurisdiction of address associated with your Subscription Account, or (ii) by telephonic hearing. If the amount in Dispute is $20,000 or more, the arbitration will be conducted in Charlotte, North Carolina. Each of you and IDSeal has the right to be represented by an attorney in any arbitration.

d. The number of arbitrators shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties; provided, however, that in event the parties cannot agree on the number of arbitrators, the AAA Rules will control.  In all cases, the award of the arbitrator(s) shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion. Punitive or exemplary damages shall be allowed only to the extent the remedy is expressly available under Applicable Law. Discovery shall consist of interrogatories, document requests, and no more than five depositions of seven hours or less each, per side; provided, however, that the arbitrator(s) may award additional discovery upon motion by either party and a showing of need and/or the inability to pursue or defend claims absent additional discovery.

e. The party initiating the arbitration must pay the applicable AAA filing fee when submitting its written request for arbitration to the AAA.  Unless otherwise provided for in the AAA Rules, all other administrative fees and expenses of arbitration, including the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, will be divided equally between the parties.

f. Unless applicable substantive law provides otherwise, each party will pay its own expenses to participate in the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees and expenses for witnesses, document production, and evidence presentation.  The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to award the same damages and other relief that would have been available to the parties as individual claimants in court.

g. Any award may be confirmed and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor IDSeal may disclose the existence, content, or results of the arbitration, except as necessary to conduct the proceedings, to confirm and enforce the award, to its own legal or financial advisors, by agreement, or as may be required by Applicable Law.

C.  CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER

EACH DISPUTE WILL BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL SPECIFICALLY AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A CLAIMANT OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP PROCEEDING. NO CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP ARBITRATIONS ARE PERMITTED EVEN IF ALLOWED UNDER THE APPLICABLE AAA RULES. EACH PARTY AGREES THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP PROCEEDING (“CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER”). EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER IS MATERIAL AND ESSENTIAL TO THE RESOLUTION OF ANY DISPUTE.  THEREFORE, IF THE CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER IS LIMITED, VOIDED, OR OTHERWISE FOUND UNENFORCEABLE, SUCH THAT CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP ARBITRATION IS ALLOWED, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF SECTIONS 16(B) ABOVE AND 16(F) BELOW (BUT ONLY SECTIONS 16(B) ABOVE AND 16(F) BELOW) SHALL BE NULL AND VOID, AND IF A PARTY CHOOSES TO PROCEED WITH ITS CLAIM IT MUST DO SO IN COURT PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 16(D) AND 16(E) AND ARTICLE 17 BELOW. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING ELSE CONTAINED IN THESE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS, THE INTERPRETATION, APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY, AND VALIDITY OF THE CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER AND ANY ATTENDANT QUESTION OR DISPUTE REGARDING THE VOIDANCE OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 16(B) ABOVE, SHALL IN EACH CASE BE DECIDED ONLY BY A COURT AND NOT BY AN ARBITRATOR.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION CONTAINED IN THESE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS TO THE CONTRARY, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD MONEY OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM. NO CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, GROUP, OR APPLICABLE PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL THEORIES OF LIABILITY, OR PRAYERS FOR RELIEF, MAY BE MAINTAINED IN ANY ARBITRATION HELD PURSUANT TO THESE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS.

D.  CLASS ACTION WAIVER

IN THE EVENT ANY DISPUTE PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN THROUGH ARBITRATION, FOR ANY REASON, EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL AGREE THAT SUCH DISPUTE WILL ONLY BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL SPECIFICALLY AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR GROUP PROCEEDING.

E.  JURY TRIAL WAIVER

TO THE EXTENT ANY DISPUTE PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN THROUGH ARBITRATION, FOR ANY REASON, IF NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF YOU AND IDSEAL HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

F.  Delegation to Arbitrator

Except as provided in Section 16(C) above, you and IDSeal acknowledge and agree that the arbitrator(s), and not any federal, state, or local court, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or validity of these Dispute Resolution Provisions, including without limitation any claim that these Dispute Resolution Provisions are void or voidable.

G.  Severability

If any provision contained in these Dispute Resolution Provisions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified automatically to the minimum extent necessary to render the parties’ agreement to arbitrate valid and enforceable.  If a provision conflicts with a mandatory provision of Applicable Law, the conflicting provision shall be severed automatically and the remainder construed to incorporate the mandatory provision. In the event of such severance or modification, the remainder shall not be affected.

H.  Termination and Survival

These Dispute Resolution Provisions shall remain in effect even after the expiration or termination of your Subscription or use of the Sites.

19. MISCELLANEOUS

A.  Entire Agreement

These Home Support Terms, including the Polices, constitute the entire agreement between you and IDSeal pertaining to your Subscription, access to and use of the Support Services, and access to and use of the Sites, and any other written or oral agreements existing between us are null and void. You represent that you have read these Home Support Terms and the Policies, understand their terms, and agree and intend to be legally bound by them. You acknowledge that, in providing you access to and use of the Support Services, IDSeal has relied on your agreement to be bound by these Home Support Terms.

B.  Waiver and Severability

No waiver by us of any term or condition set out in these Home Support terms or the Policies shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure by us to assert a right or provision under these Home Support terms or the Policies shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Except as provided in Section 16(G) above, which shall control for purposes of Article 16, if any provision of these Home Support terms or the Policies is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of these Home Support Terms or the Policies will continue in full force and effect.

C.  Access and Security

If you choose, or are provided with, a user name, password, or any other piece of information as part of our security procedures for access to your Subscription Account or the Sites, you must treat such information as confidential, and you must not disclose it to any other person or entity. You also acknowledge that your Subscription Account and any account you set up through the Application (“Application Account” and, together with the Subscription Account, the “Accounts”), are personal to you and agree not to provide any other person with access to the Sites, Accounts or portions of either using your user name, password, or other security information. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your user name or password or any other breach of security. You also agree to ensure that you exit from your Accounts at the end of each session. You should use particular caution when accessing your Accounts from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other Personal Information. We have the right to disable any user name, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, at any time, in our sole discretion for any or no reason, including if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of Applicable Law, these Home Support terms, or the Policies.
