Terms of Use

WEBSITE TERMS OF USE

Welcome to the web site of Insurance House and its affiliated companies!  These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access and use of this web site. 

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND CONSTITUTE A LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT.
By accessing and/or using the web site and its functionality, you agree to be bound by these Terms.  If you do not agree to these Terms, then you are not authorized to access this web site, whether you have registered with us or not.  For the purposes of these Terms, “you” or “your” refers to you, the person accessing this web site, and “we” or “our” refers to Insurance House and its affiliated companies.  The services and functionality provided on this web site are called the “Services.”
You may transact business with us using paper documents rather than through this web site and the Services. If you want to transact business using paper, contact us as normal rather than using this web site.  However, if you use this web site, you are consenting to do business with us electronically for the particular activity for which you use this web site.  For example, it may be possible to submit a claim or pay for your insurance on this web site.  If you do so, you have irrevocably elected to transact business with us electronically for that activity.  Transacting business electronically does not require you to transact business with us electronically in the future unless you expressly agree to do so.  For example, providing claims information or paying for insurance using this web site does not prevent you from contacting us about the claim through other means or paying future insurance premiums by check.
By providing us with information, including, but not limited to, claims information and credit card information, you agree to provide accurate, truthful and complete information.
 
Privacy Policy
Use of information you provide or we receive from you as a result of your access or use of the web site or the Services are governed by our Privacy Policy, which may be accessed by clicking {here}[add link]. As a condition of using the web site or Services, you agree to the terms of the Privacy Policy, as it may be changed from time to time. We will provide you notice of any significant changes by placing a link on the home page of this web site, by email, or other communication.
 
Changes to These Terms of Use
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to update or revise these Terms at any time without further notice.  If we update or revise these Terms, we will post the updated Terms at this location and will indicate at the bottom of this page the date the Terms were last updated.  Any changes shall be effective immediately upon posting on the web site.  Your continued use of the web site or Services following the posting of any changes to these Terms constitutes acceptance of those changes.  It is your responsibility to regularly check these Terms for changes and to review those changes.

Account, Password and Security
To use certain Services, you will be required to register.  You will receive a password and account designation upon completing the registration process on the web site. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the password and account and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (a) immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. We cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this Section. 
The Services are only available to users who are at least 13 years old. If you are under 13, you may not register to use the Services.

Payments Using the Web Site
If we offer the ability to make payments to us on this web site or through the Services, you hereby agree to all restrictions, terms and conditions associated with such form of payment. Your credit or debit card issuer agreement governs your use of your designated card, and you must refer to that agreement and not these Terms to determine your rights and liabilities as a cardholder. YOU, NOT US, ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING ANY UNAUTHORIZED AMOUNTS BILLED TO YOUR CREDIT CARD BY A THIRD PARTY. You agree to pay all fees and charges incurred in connection with your payments (including any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. If we do not receive payment from your credit or debit card issuer or its agent, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand by us. You are responsible for paying any governmental taxes imposed on your payments, including, but not limited to, sales and use taxes.

General Information
These Terms do not affect any other agreement that may exist between you and us, including, but not limited to, any insurance contract with us. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us governing your access and use of the web site and the Services, superseding any prior version of these Terms. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use certain Services.
You and we each agree that these Terms and the relationship between the parties shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
 
Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms remain in full force and effect.
