Partner and Customer online account management and transaction activity – Partner and Customer Accounts are maintained and managed online. In an effort to be environmentally friendly, we do not send monthly statements on paper. However, online records are maintained in real-time as system performance allows. Transaction records will be conclusive proof of use of our Partner Programs, as well as Customer Activity, and will be considered your written request to perform the transaction. Even though you may be provided with a transaction record, verification number, or online statement when using our Services, our verification and acceptance of all transactions will be considered correct and binding unless there is an obvious error.

Error or system malfunction - In the event that your account is charged or credited due to our error or a system malfunction, you will be liable to the extent of any credit that you improperly receive and we may charge your account for such amount, and you will be entitled to recover from us the amount of any improper charge.

Examining your transaction information – Partners and Customers are responsible for promptly and carefully examining your account transaction information in your online account. You will notify us in writing of any errors or omissions in the account transaction information. If we do not receive notice from you within 60 (sixty) days of the transaction date, you are deemed to have knowledge of and agree to accept the transaction information posted to your account as valid and correct. In addition, we will be released from any claim with respect to any and every Partner or Customer transaction, as well as from any other claim for negligence, conversion, breach of trust, breach of fiduciary duty or otherwise. We reserve the right to correct amounts or Customer accounts added to your account by mistake.
