Identity Defense Service Terms of Use – November 2021

Identity Defense License and Terms of Service

Last updated: November 16, 2021

Thanks for choosing Identity Defense. First, let’s review the License and Terms of Service according to which we offer the services to you. In this document, we’ll outline in detail what we provide you (our customers), and each of our legal obligations. The terms and conditions contained in this document will be collectively referred to as the “Terms”.

Here is a quick breakdown to make these easier to understand:

When do these terms apply?

These Terms apply to your use of the Identity Defense products or services, including all software provided as a part of our services (the “Software”), whether through the web or a mobile application, or in any other manner (collectively, the “Services”). As such, these Terms apply anytime you (i) create an account in connection with the Services; (ii) download or use any Software in connection with the Services, (iii) use any of the Services via our websites, or (iv) otherwise use the Services or interact with Pango in connection with the Services.

How do you agree to our terms?

You are agreeing to these Terms when you sign up for or use the Services. This means that anytime you access or use the Services, you are agreeing to the Terms. We encourage you to read our Terms carefully, as they contain many important provisions, including automatic renewal terms and mandatory arbitration, that significantly affect your legal rights.
We note, in particular, that these Terms contain an arbitration agreement that requires U.S. users to resolve disputes with Pango or its affiliates through arbitration on an individual basis. Arbitration on an individual basis means that you will not have, and you waive, the right for a judge or jury to decide your claims, and that you may not proceed in a class, consolidated, or representative capacity. See Section 2.12 below for the details of the arbitration agreement.

Who is Pango?

“Pango,” “We,” or “Us” means Intersections LLC. and our affiliates. These Terms represent a binding contract between you and Pango.

What is covered by these Terms?

To make it easier to understand, we’ve divided our legal terms into four parts:
(1) Billing, Cancellation and Refund Policies: This covers terms related to billing, automatic renewals, cancellation and refunds, when billing is handled by Pango. Separate terms may apply if you didn’t purchase the Services directly from Pango.
(2) General Legal Terms: This covers the general legal terms that make up the contractual relationship between you and Pango such as eligibility, user accounts, binding arbitration, and indemnification.
(3) Service Specific Terms: These are specific terms that apply to the Services that Pango is providing to you.
(4) License Terms: These are terms that govern how we give you a license to access and use the Services.

PART 1. AUTOMATIC RENEWALS, BILLING AND REFUNDS

1.1 Subscription. Our Services are billed on a subscription basis (“Subscription”). You will be billed in advance for your Subscription on a recurring and periodic basis (“Billing Cycle”). The length of your Billing Cycles will depend on the Subscription you select. Billing Cycles will typically consist of one (1) month or one (1) year terms. You agree to pay for the Subscription that you select for the Services and you authorize us to automatically charge the payment method our service provider has on file for your recurring payments according to the Billing Cycle applicable to your Subscription.

1.2 Automatic Renewals. At the end of each Billing Cycle, your Subscription will automatically renew for an additional Billing Cycle under the same terms and conditions unless you or we cancel your Subscription at least a day prior to the commencement of your next Billing Cycle. Several methods of cancelling your Subscription are available to you, and are described at https://www.identitydefense.com/faq.
Once you have canceled your Subscription, your recurring subscription fees for the Services will no longer be charged to the payment method we have on file for your account, and your subscription will remain active only until the end of the current Billing Cycle. You may also be eligible for a refund depending on the specific plan and offer you subscribed to in accordance with the applicable section(s) below. See Section 1.5 below.
If your Subscription includes a guarantee that you may cancel your Subscription and receive a refund within a set period of time (“Money Back Guarantee”), you must request a refund within the timeframe applicable to your Money Back Guarantee (“Money Back Period”) (e.g., if your Subscription includes a 30-day Money Back Guarantee you would need to cancel within 30 days of the date of purchase).

1.3 Payment Methods. A valid payment method, including credit card, is required to process the payment for your Subscription. You shall provide us or our third-party payment processor, with accurate and complete billing information including full name, address, state, zip code, and valid payment method information. By submitting such payment information, you automatically authorize us to charge all Subscription fees incurred through your account to any such payment instruments.
Unless we expressly provide otherwise, all amounts paid are non-refundable. You further agree to be responsible for all taxes associated with the Services, along with any transaction fees and currency conversions added by your financial institution and intermediaries. All amounts are in U.S. Dollars. If the billing method you provide is a credit or debit card (“Payment Card”), you: (a) represent that you are authorized to use such Payment Card; (b) authorize us to charge your Payment Card periodically for the Subscription fees when due, including upon sign up for the Services and each subsequent Billing Cycle; (c) agree to keep your Payment Card details valid and current; and (d) agree to pay any processing fees that are charged by the third-party payment processors or Payment Card issuer. If your Payment Card is declined when we attempt to charge it, we may try to charge it again at a later time. If we do not receive payment, we may suspend or terminate your Subscription.

1.4 Fee Changes. We may change the fees that we charge for the Services, at any time at our sole discretion, provided that we will give you at least thirty (30) days, and prior notice of such changes. Unless otherwise specified in such notice to you, any changes to the Subscription fees will take effect in the Billing Cycle immediately following our notice to you.

PART 2. GENERAL LEGAL TERMS

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION FOR U.S. CUSTOMERS – IF YOU RESIDE IN THE U.S. WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU AGREE TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES WITH Pango AND ITS AFFILIATES THROUGH ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.

2.4 Free Trials. Pango may, at its sole discretion, offer a Subscription with a free trial for a limited period (“Free Trial”). You may be required to enter your billing information to sign up for the Free Trial. If you do enter your billing information when signing up for the Free Trial, you will not be charged by us until the Free Trial has expired. On the last day of the Free Trial period, unless you canceled your Subscription, you will be automatically charged the applicable Subscription fees for the type of Subscription you have selected. At any time and without notice, we reserve the right to (i) modify the terms and conditions of the Free Trial offer, or (ii) cancel such Free Trial offer.

2.5 Third-Party Products and Policies. We may offer or provide you access to products, services, or websites provided by third parties, including but not limited to free services provided by third parties and websites that hyperlink to our website or to whom we hyperlink (collectively “Third-Party Content”).

Pango reserves the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify the Pango Entities, and you agree to cooperate with Pango’s defense of these claims.

The Services may contain information that is controlled and restricted from export by the United States export controls restrictions, regulations, and laws described above (the “Controlled Information”). If Pango, in its sole discretion, determines that it cannot implement the Services in a manner to exclude access to Controlled Information where required, if you are in a country or territory that is subject to such regulation, you shall not be provided access to the Services.

2.8 Disclaimers; No Warranties. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER LAW AND SAVE FOR THE RIGHTS GRANTED TO CONSUMERS UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS, Pango disclaims all warranties, statutory, express, or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement of proprietary rights.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT PERMIT THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

2.9 Limitation of Liability and Damages. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER LAW, Pango AND THE Pango ENTITIES WILL HAVE NO OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY (WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) FOR ANY DAMAGES OR LIABILITIES, INCLUDING DIRECT, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL (INCLUDING ANY LOSS OF DATA, REVENUE OR PROFIT OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM PERSONAL INJURY/WRONGFUL DEATH) ARISING CONCERNING YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

PANGO PRODUCTS AND SERVICES ARE NOT A CREDIT COUNSELING SERVICE AND DO NOT PROMISE TO HELP YOU OBTAIN A LOAN OR IMPROVE YOUR CREDIT RECORD, HISTORY, OR RATING. THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE ANY TERMINATION, CANCELLATION, OR EXPIRATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

2.10 Basis of the Bargain. You acknowledge and agree that Pango has offered the Services, set its prices, and entered into these Terms in reliance upon the warranty disclaimers and the limitations of liability set forth herein, that the warranty disclaimers and the limitations of liability set forth herein reflect a reasonable and fair allocation of risk between you and Pango, and that the warranty disclaimers and the limitations of liability set forth herein form an essential basis of the bargain between you and Pango. Pango would not be able to provide the Services to you on an economically reasonable basis without these limitations.

2.11 Government Use. This Section 2.11 applies where the Services are provided for the benefit of a U.S. governmental end-user. As defined in FAR section 2.101, the Services are “commercial items” and according to FAR 12.212 and DFARS section 252.227-7014(a)(1) and (5) are deemed to be “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation.” Consistent with FAR section 12.212 and DFARS section 227.7202, any use modification, reproduction, release, performance, display, or disclosure of such commercial software or commercial software documentation by the U.S. Government will be governed solely by these Terms and will be prohibited except to the extent expressly permitted by these Terms.

2.12 DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION
Please read this carefully. It affects your rights.
(A) Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by calling customer service at 1-888-217-0379. In the unlikely event that customer service is unable to resolve a complaint you may have with Pango or Pango’s service Provider(s) to your satisfaction (or if Pango and/or Pango’s service Provider(s) have not been able to resolve a dispute with you after attempting to do so informally), you, on the one hand, and Pango and/or Pango’s service provider(s), on the other, each agree to resolve those disputes under the Arbitration Agreement contained in this Section 2.12. The Arbitration Agreement requires you to resolve all disputes (other than those expressly exempted in this Section 2.12) through binding arbitration on an individual basis, instead of in courts of general jurisdiction to the fullest extent permitted by law. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. We will pay all costs of arbitration, no matter who wins, so long as your claim is not frivolous. However, in arbitration, you, on the one hand, and Pango and/or Pango’s service provider(s), on the other, will be entitled to recover attorneys’ fees to the same extent they would be available in court.
(B) ARBITRATION AGREEMENT – You, on the one hand, and Pango and/or Pango’s service provider(s), on the other, agree that any claim or dispute (“Claim”) between us shall, at the election of any one of us, be resolved by binding arbitration ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules for consumer arbitrations, as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA appear at adr.org. Pango can also help put you in touch with the AAA. The parties intend that this agreement to arbitrate (“Arbitration Agreement”) be construed broadly, such that this Arbitration Agreement includes any Claims by you against Pango or Pango’s service provider(s) as well as their respective corporate affiliates for any claims, disputes, or causes of action related in any way to (i) your use of the Services or (ii) the breach, enforcement, interpretation, applicability, or validity of these Terms or any part of them (including this Arbitration Agreement).
You agree that, by entering into these Terms or otherwise using the Services, you are waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. At your request, we will promptly reimburse you for the payment of your arbitration filing fee. (The filing fee for consumers currently is $200 but is subject to change by the arbitration provider. If you are unable to pay this fee, we will pay it directly after receiving a written request). The arbitrator shall be authorized to award whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity, other than relief reserved for the courts by law or statute. YOU, ON ONE HAND, AND PANGO AND/OR PANGO’S SERVICE PROVIDER(S), ON THE OTHER, AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Pango agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision in the preceding sentence is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void. The parties to these Terms acknowledge that this Arbitration Agreement is made according to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (“FAA”), except to the extent state law provides defenses or exceptions not preempted by the FAA. Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall follow substantive law to the extent consistent with the FAA and shall honor any claims or privileges recognized by law. The terms of this Section 2.12 shall survive any termination, cancellation, or expiration of this Agreement.
Exceptions to Arbitration: Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following claims are not subject to this Arbitration Agreement, provided that they are brought and maintained as individual claims and not in any class, consolidated, or representative capacity: (1) claims you may have which relate to your credit report, or any claims arising out of or relating to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and/or the FCRA’s state law equivalent(s) or (2) claims properly lodged in a small claims court of the United States.

2.13 Prohibited Conduct. BY USING THE SERVICES YOU AGREE NOT TO:
(a) use the Services for any fraudulent, harassing, or abusive purpose, or to damage or cause risk to our business, reputation, employees, subscribers, facilities, or any person;

2.17 No Tax or Legal Advice; No Credit Repair Services. You acknowledge and agree that we are not providing any legal, tax, or financial advice by providing the Services to you.

2.18 Monitoring of Customer Service Sessions. We and our partners may, but have no obligation to, monitor and record customer service sessions, including telephone calls and online sessions for purposes of improving customer service, internal training, and internal market research. You hereby grant us permission to monitor and record any customer service sessions involving you and to use or disclose any information as necessary or appropriate to satisfy any law, regulation, or other governmental requests; to provide the Services to you or other users, and/or to enhance the types of Services we may provide in the future.

2.19 Privacy. We respect your privacy and have taken specific steps to protect it. Your submission of personal information through the Services is governed by our Privacy Policy. By participating in the Services, you acknowledge that you have reviewed and understand our Privacy Policy and consent to the practices described in that policy.

2.20 Termination by Pango. Pango may terminate your use of the Services or discontinue providing access to the Services at any time and for any reason, including, but not limited to any actual or suspected breach by you of these Terms or any other unacceptable or objectionable use of the Services, as determined by Pango in its sole discretion. You agree that any termination of your access to the Services may be effected without prior notice and you agree that Pango will not be liable to you or any third party for any such termination.
If such termination or discontinuation occurs during a period for which you are a paid subscriber, you may be entitled to a pro-rated refund of your current subscription payment amount in connection with your use of the Services. If your account is terminated due to your breach of these Terms, you will not be eligible for a refund. All refunds are issued at Pango’s sole discretion and any refund request may be denied for any or no reason. If you have been terminated from the Services and wish to request a refund, please email customer service at [email protected] and describe the circumstances relating to the termination or discontinuation of your use of the Services. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. These remedies are in addition to any other remedies Pango may have at law or in equity.

2.22 Assignment. These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you but may be assigned by Pango without restriction. Any assignment attempted to be made in violation of these Terms shall be void.

2.23 Additional Terms. Certain areas, features, or functionality of the Services may be subject to different or additional terms, rules, guidelines, or policies (“Additional Rules”), and we may provide such Additional Rules to you via postings, pop-up notices, links, or other means at the time that you access or use the relevant area, feature or functionality. From time to time, such Additional Rules may conflict with these Terms. In the event of such a conflict, the Additional Rules will control. Any reference to the “Terms” in this agreement includes the Additional Rules.

The use of the words “includes,” “including,” “such as,” “for example,” and similar terms are deemed not to limit what else might be included.

2.28 Jurisdiction. You agree that in the event of a dispute that is not subject to the Arbitration Agreement in these Terms, or if the Arbitration Agreement is found to be unenforceable any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms or your use of the Services, except any claim properly lodged in a Small Claims Court of the United States, will be filed only in the state or federal courts located in Fairfax County, (or Fairfax,) Virginia, and you hereby consent and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts to litigate any such action.

You may grant approvals, permission, extensions, and consents by email. Notices to you may be sent to the email address associated with your account for the Services.

2.32 Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided herein, there will be no third party beneficiaries to these Terms.

2.33 Waiver. The failure of Pango to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by Pango. Any cause of action arising out of or related to the Service by you against Pango must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues.

2.34 Modification of this Agreement. Pango may make changes to these Terms at any time for a variety of reasons, such as to reflect changes in applicable law or to account for additional features or functionality in the Services. We may notify you of such changes by any reasonable means, including by posting a revised version of these Terms through the Services. You agree that it is your responsibility to regularly check the Services for any updated Terms.

This product will not monitor for or detect any information that you have not designated through your account.
If we find your Designated Information on the dark web, we will send you a notification. We will not remove your Designated Information from the dark web and we do not ensure the accuracy or integrity of the information on the dark web. We do not guarantee that the Services will identify all instances of your Designated Information on the dark web. You acknowledge and agree that our failure to identify Designated Information on the dark web will not constitute a breach or default by us of our obligations.

Undertake or accomplish any unlawful purpose. This includes, but is not limited to, posting, storing, transmitting or disseminating information, data or material which is libelous, obscene, unlawful, threatening or defamatory, or which infringes the intellectual property rights of any person or entity, or which in any way constitutes or encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, or otherwise violate any local, state, federal, or non-U.S. law, order, or regulation;

3.2 Secure VPN/Wi-Fi Security

Our Secure VPN Services generally provide sufficient capacity to accommodate average non-commercial use. It is possible that you may temporarily experience slower service or service unavailability, and any such temporary slowdown or unavailability will not constitute a breach or default by us of our obligations. Pango reserves the right to prevent your access to the Service or continued use thereof if you violate this Agreement, engage in fraud or copyright infringement.
If we observe that: (a) your usage level exceeds our average customer use level or otherwise negatively impacts the overall health of the network or (b) you exceed any bandwidth limitations associated with your account, all as determined by Pango in its sole discretion, then we may suspend or cancel your account for clarification or investigation. We will not be liable to you or owe you any refund or other compensation as a result of any such suspension or cancellation. We do not condone or endorse any unlawful, illicit, criminal or fraudulent activities perpetrated by you while using the Services. We will not be liable in any way for any actions of the users of the Services.

3.3 Identity Theft Protection

The Identity Theft Protection Services are only available to users who have a U.S. Social Security Number or a U.S. mailing address. You agree that you will use these Services only for your own behalf. You will be responsible for all use of your membership number and must notify Pango immediately of any unauthorized use of your membership number, or the theft or misplacement of your membership number.
Authorization: You understand that by enrolling in the Services, you are providing “written instructions” in accordance with the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, as amended (“FCRA”), for Pango and its service providers, which may include CSIdentity Corporation (“CSID”), to obtain information from your personal credit profile from Experian, Equifax, and Transunion, the three major credit reporting agencies. You authorize Pango and its service providers to use your Social Security number to access your personal credit profile, verify your identity, and provide credit monitoring, reporting, and scoring products with each of the credit bureaus. Further, you authorize Pango to make any inquiries necessary to verify your identity or your ownership of financial or other accounts relevant to your use of the Services. This may include, without limitation, making inquiries through third-party sources or requiring you to provide additional information or documentation. If we are unable to verify your identity or otherwise obtain your credit information from a credit reporting agency, we will be unable to provide certain Services to you and reserve the right to refuse to offer some or all of the Services to you and cancel your Subscription, as applicable.
Insurance: Identity theft insurance is governed by a master policy, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. The issuance of the policy is evidenced by an insurance certificate, summary of benefits, or other similar document, that has been provided to you. You acknowledge receipt of this information and agree to be bound by the terms, conditions, limitations, and exclusions of the policy. To view these Terms and our website, you must use a supported browser. You may obtain a paper copy of these disclosures by calling 1-855-552-2123.
Note on Public Records: The sex offender (“Offender”) information that is used for the Services is derived from official public records. As such, the accuracy of the information provided through the Services may vary based upon the accuracy of such official public records. In certain cases, we may not obtain all the address information associated with the Offender who is contained in the public record. Depending on the public record data available, we may not be able to plot the Offender on a map and, as such, we may elect to not show information about the Offender. Some of the official data is gathered from the Offenders themselves who are required by law to notify authorities about any changes to their place of residence. The information contained on the Services makes no representation as to any Offender’s likelihood of re-offending or the nature of any future crimes they may commit. Pango has no control over the contents of official public records. If you believe the information on this website is incorrect, please contact the local police department in the applicable jurisdiction. That police department will be able to assist you directly or refer you to the appropriate authority. Harassing, stalking, defrauding, or threatening any Offender listed on this website most likely violates your state’s laws and is neither condoned nor encouraged by Pango, its directors, shareholders, or employees. A person listed on the Services does not necessarily mean that individual is an Offender. Please verify all information and contact your local police department for help.
Credit Report-Related Disclosures for US Residents: The Fair Credit Reporting Act allows you to obtain a disclosure from every credit reporting agency of the nature and substance of all information in your file at the time of the request. Full disclosure of information in your file at Experian must be obtained directly from Experian by calling 888-397-3742 or logging on to www.experian.com/consumer. The credit report you are requesting from Pango is not intended to constitute the disclosure of Experian information required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act or similar state laws. You are entitled to receive a disclosure directly from the consumer reporting agency free of charge under the following circumstances:
a. You have been denied credit, insurance or employment within the past sixty (60) days as a result of your credit report.
b. You certify in writing that you are unemployed and intend to apply for employment in the 60-day period beginning on the date on which I made the certification.
c. You are a recipient of public welfare assistance
d. You have reason to believe that your file at the agency contains inaccurate information due to fraud
e. Annually at www.annualcreditreport.com
Otherwise, the consumer reporting agency may impose a reasonable charge for the disclosure.
The Fair Credit Reporting Act permits you to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information in your credit file. You understand that accurate information cannot be changed. You do not have to purchase your credit report or other information from Pango to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information in my Experian file or to receive a copy of your Experian consumer credit report.
Experian’s National Consumer Assistance Center provides a proprietary consumer disclosure that is different from the consumer credit report provided by Pango. The disclosure report must be obtained directly from Experian. Consumers residing in the States of Colorado, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, and Vermont may receive a free copy of their consumer credit report once per year and residents of the State of Georgia may receive two copies per year.
Fraud Alerts are available to any eligible consumers—free of charge—from a national consumer reporting agency.
NOTICE TO ILLINOIS RESIDENTS: MANY GOVERNMENT RECORDS ARE AVAILABLE FREE OR AT A NOMINAL COST FROM GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES ARE REQUIRED BY LAW TO GIVE YOU A COPY OF YOUR CREDIT RECORD UPON REQUEST AT NO CHARGE OR FOR A NOMINAL FEE.
The Services are not intended to substitute for any free credit report or disclosure that any credit reporting agency or bureau is required by law to provide to you. Neither you nor anyone else has the right to have accurate and current information removed from your credit report. If information in your credit report is inaccurate, you have the right to dispute it by contacting the credit bureau directly.
VANTAGESCORE 3.0 CREDIT SCORE: VantageScore 3.0, with scores ranging from 300 to 850, is a user-friendly credit score model developed by the three major nationwide credit reporting agencies, Experian®, TransUnion®, and Equifax®. VantageScore 3.0 is used by some but not all lenders. Higher scores represent a greater likelihood that you’ll pay back your debts so you are viewed as being a lower credit risk to lenders. A lower score indicates to lenders that you may be a higher credit risk.
There are three different major credit reporting agencies, Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax, that maintain a record of your credit history known as your credit file. Credit scores are based on the information in your credit file at the time it is requested. Your credit file information can vary from agency to agency because some lenders report your credit history to only one or two of the agencies. So your credit scores can vary if the information they have on file for you is different. Since the information in your file can change over time, your credit scores also may be different from day-to-day. Different credit scoring models can also give a different assessment of the credit risk (risk of default) for the same consumer and same credit file.
There are different credit scoring models which may be used by lenders and insurers. Your lender may not use VantageScore 3.0, so don’t be surprised if your lender gives you a score that’s different from your VantageScore. (And your VantageScore 3.0 may differ from your score under other types of VantageScores). Just remember that your associated risk level is often the same even if the number is not. For some consumers, however, the risk assessment of VantageScore 3.0 could vary, sometimes substantially, from a lender’s score. If the lender’s score is lower than your VantageScore 3.0, it is possible that this difference can lead to higher interest rates and sometimes credit denial.

3.4 Social Media Monitoring

Our Social Media Monitoring Services will monitor your accounts on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube and notify you of any suspicious activity or potentially malicious links. It does not monitor chats or direct messages. We will only monitor accounts that you connect to the Services.

3.5 Financial Transaction Monitoring

If you choose to activate our Financial Transaction Monitoring Services, you must provide us with any necessary information to render the Services, including, without limitation, the applicable account credentials for your credit, commerce, banking, investment, and other eligible account(s) (“Transaction Account Credentials”). By activating the Services and providing us with your Transaction Account Credentials, you hereby grant Pango the express authorization to access your account(s) as your agent in fact and further grant to Pango a non-exclusive, fully-paid, perpetual, royalty-free, license to use, reproduce, distribute, and/or transfer any data or account information obtained for the sole purpose of monitoring your transactions within the corresponding accounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pango may prepare, develop, and retain aggregated and/or anonymized data from your account for its own internal use.
Should you change your account information (including your Transaction Account Credentials with any of your third-party providers) you must also update that account information in our system in order for Pango to continue to provide the Services to that respective account. You hereby acknowledge and understand that our network(s), products, and/or services are limited to the account information provided by you and your third-party providers, and we may in certain limited circumstances experience delays and/or failures to process or identify fraudulent transactions. You hereby acknowledge and agree to monitor your accounts and transactions and further expressly recognize that you should not solely rely on alerts from Pango for accuracy or delivery in all cases.

3.6 Home Title Monitoring

Our Home Title Monitoring Services send a notification to you if we identify an ownership or other change on the title to your home recorded by your county’s assessor or recorder’s office. If you receive a notification, you will need to contact your local county assessor or county clerk to get more detailed information and/or correct their records. This is a notice-only service. These Services do not include any Identity Theft Remediation Services (discussed in Section 3.8 below) or identity theft event insurance (discussed in Section 3.3 above), or any other services whatsoever, for any ownership or other changes to the title to your home.
These Services are dependent upon the records in local assessor or recorder’s offices. As such, the accuracy of the information provided through the Services may vary based upon the accuracy of such records. You acknowledge and agree that we will not be liable for any inaccuracies or errors in such records, or for the absence of any information in such records.

3.7 Identity Theft Remediation

In order for us to provide our Identity Theft Remediation Services, you must provide us with a signed Limited Power of Attorney (“LPOA”) in the form that we will send to you. A LPOA form may be sent to you after you contact our customer support team which you will be required to complete and return in accordance with the instructions enclosed. The LPOA allows us to work on your behalf with creditors, merchants, banks and other entities. You may also be required to provide us with other documents relating to the applicable identity theft event, depending on the circumstances.
In addition, separate and apart from the LPOA, you authorize us to take all reasonable actions on your behalf to help restore your identity. Without limiting the immediately foregoing sentence, by agreeing to these Terms, you are providing “written instructions” for us to obtain information on a recurring basis from any consumer reporting agency in order to (i) confirm your identity, (ii) display or disclose your credit information to you and/or your designated representative related to your use of the applicable Services, (iii) allow us to create and deliver certain features of the Services to you, and (iv) permit us to monitor your credit file(s) so that we can provide to you and/or your designated representative certain fraud alerts and provide assistance in reviewing certain portions of your credit data. You acknowledge and agree that you do not have to specifically authorize each action we take, and you further acknowledge that we can investigate the facts and circumstances related to your identity theft case, including but not limited to contacting third parties by U.S. mail, telephone, and email. We reserve the right to ask for evidence of or related to the identity theft event, including but not limited to: affidavits, police reports, and/or other government reports.

3.8 Family Plans

Our Family Plan Services enable you to add other adults and children living at the same address as you, and help you monitor and manage the online activities of children up to 18 years old. If you are an adult, parent, or legal guardian, you may use the Services to track and monitor only your children, children for whom you are the legal guardian or others for whom you have legal authorization to track and monitor. You are responsible for obtaining authorization from any third party to whom you extend access to multi-user Services that track and monitor.

3.9 Anti-Virus/Malware Removal

If your Subscription includes our Anti-Virus or Malware Removal Services, or a similar service whereby we or one of our partners access your device to attempt removal of malware or perform other specified services, additional terms may apply. Such terms may be specified in the documents that accompanied your purchase.
We will make commercially reasonable efforts to perform the malware removal Services covered by your Subscription. You understand and agree that not all malware can be removed through the Services and we do not guarantee that we can remove all malware from your device(s). To the extent permitted by applicable law, we will have no liability for loss of or recovery of data, software, or loss of use of system(s) or networks arising out of your use of these Services or any act or omission, including negligence, by us or our representatives.

User Opt-Out and Additional Commands: To opt-out of receiving all mobile messages, reply “STOP” to any mobile message you received from Pango on your mobile device.

Thus, you may receive additional informational text messages based on your interaction with the Services, even after opting out of receiving the mobile alerts.
