6.1 Email policy

Email in general

Our communications to you in email may not accurately represent the entire or final disposition of a matter or constitute our official business, due to brevity or informality. Email is one medium through which information may be exchanged, as when an email message responds to a voice mail. Accordingly, email, by itself, may not accurately reflect the complete communication or our intent as to the subject matter referred to within the communication, nor constitute an official business record of Company. Any official content present in an email communication is qualified in its entirety by any signed writings, which shall govern such content according to their provisions. Also, unless explicitly permitted in a signed writing or necessary by law, the mere receipt of an email by us may not put us on notice, timely or otherwise, of the matters contained within that email.

Confidential information

The emails we send are confidential (and all attachments to such emails are confidential) and are to be reviewed and/or disclosed to only the individual or entity to whom they are addressed and intended. If you receive an email in error or if it is improperly forwarded to you, the information contained in the email should, at all times, remain confidential and such circumstances shall not authorize you to use or disclose the confidential information. You agree to notify the sender immediately by telephone or email, and delete or destroy the original and any copies. Any unauthorized use, disclosure, reproduction, or distribution is strictly prohibited. Emails marked as "Confidential" contain confidential and/or proprietary information that is disclosed under the condition that you treat and maintain such information strictly in a confidential manner and in compliance with all applicable privacy laws and that you ensure such information is not disclosed or used by others, except for the limited and confidential purpose for which it is being provided. By accepting receipt of and/or reviewing confidential information that we provide, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold us harmless against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, or expenses, including attorneys' fees that we may incur as a result of the unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information due to your acts or omissions.

Privileged information

Emails exchanged with or involving our lawyers and legal staff may contain privileged information subject to the attorney-client privilege and/or the attorney work product privilege. Such privileged information shall not be waived if you receive an email in error or if it was improperly forwarded or delivered to you or you otherwise receive such communication by any means. If you are not the intended recipient of privileged information, you agree to notify the sender immediately by telephone or email and delete or destroy the original and any copies. Any unauthorized use, disclosure, reproduction, or distribution of confidential or privileged information is strictly prohibited.

Time sensitive instructions & official matters; filters

Do not use email to communicate time-sensitive instructions or official company matters; they may not be received or reviewed by us in a timely manner. Emails are processed through various virus and spam filters which may delay or reject the delivery of an email altogether. Urgent matters should be communicated in person directly with the person of concern via telephone and then confirmed in writing with the appropriate person via fax or email. We reserve the right to block any email source we deem inappropriate.

Business purposes

Our email facilities are to be used only for conducting business with us. Vendors, suppliers, clients and others receiving email from us may not use our email addresses or contact information (or any other person's email address appearing on or in our email) for any purpose other than corresponding with us for lawful and legitimate business purposes relating to our business. The receipt of an email is not our consent for you to use our email address or contact information for direct marketing purposes or for transfers of data to third parties, and such use is strictly prohibited.

Monitoring of communications

All emails sent to us or from us may be forwarded, monitored, and/or reviewed by others within Company other than the designated recipient/sender with or without notice to the designated recipient/sender. We may also record or monitor other forms of communications you have with us via the Websites, PC-talk, chat, email, text messages to and from Company-owned cellular devices, and telephone. By using such communication methods, you are consenting to the recording, monitoring, storage, and/or use of the same without further notice.

Unsecured transmissions

While certain designated areas within our Websites employ technologies to secure your data and the transmissions between you and us, general email uses the Internet, which is an open system, and we cannot provide absolute assurances that all emails (sent or received) are secure, error free, not corrupted, incomplete or virus free and/or that they won't be lost, mis-delivered, destroyed, delayed, intercepted or decrypted by others. We therefore advise against sending sensitive or personally identifiable information over email, and disclaim all liability with regard to emails (and the contents therein) if they are corrupted, lost, destroyed, delayed, incomplete, mis-delivered, intercepted, decrypted or otherwise misappropriated by others.

Viruses

Computer viruses can be transmitted via email through email content, attachments to emails and embedded links. Although our emails are believed to be free of any virus or other defects that might affect computer systems in which they are received and opened, it is your responsibility to ensure that any email you open is virus free. We are not responsible for any loss or damage arising in any way from the receipt, use, storage or transmission of our emails. If we forward an email or reply to a prior email, the contents may have been produced by someone other than us, for which we assume no liability whatsoever. The use of email to introduce any virus, malicious or disabling code, or to otherwise interfere with our email transmissions, telecommunication, or computer networks is prohibited and against the law; violators will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

In addition to any other disclaimers we make in this Agreement, we disclaim any representation or warranty that our emails are virus free and/or error free. You agree to hold the Company harmless for any loss or damage arising from an email sent or forwarded to you or arising from any email reply or otherwise received by you.

Prohibited email content

We prohibit our team members from using email to make or send any type of menacing, defamatory, discriminatory, harassing, offensive or threatening statements or materials, or statements or materials that infringe the copyrights or legal rights of others. Such communications are against our policies and outside the scope of employment of our team members. You agree to hold the Company harmless from any harm, loss, or damage resulting from such communication, and the Company accepts no liability for such communication, and any of our team members responsible for such communication will be personally and solely liable for any damages or other liability arising therefrom. Please report any such violations to our Customer Service Department, 6504 International Pkwy, Ste 1300, Plano, TX 75093, or you may call 877-839-4499.

The use of our email facilities for purposes of sending menacing, harassing, offensive or threatening messages to us or any member of our team is strictly prohibited and is unlawful; violators will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Use of our email facilities for soliciting any of our team to breach their employment agreements or to interfere with their employment status with us, or which otherwise interferes with our business or economic advantage is strictly prohibited and may result in legal action against you.

6.2 Terms applicable to email and mobile messaging

This right is in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Company under this Agreement and those provided by law.

11. Subscription and cancellation

Company reserves the right to implement a subscription term and fee for the use of its Websites and/or Apps. The Company further reserves the right to offer different types of subscriptions and fees. Company reserves the right to implement a subscription fee and term at any time by providing notice to you on the Websites or Apps.

If a subscription fee and term is implemented, you will receive written confirmation when your subscription offer has been accepted. Processing of an application or fee for a subscription does not signify acceptance of the subscription offer.

Neither Company nor its subsidiaries, affiliates, vendors, or licensors (or any of their employees, agents, officers or directors) shall be held liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special or consequential damages or other injury, harm, or damage arising out of or in any way connected with the use or the inability to use the Websites or with the delay or inability to use the Websites, or for any information, software, products and services obtained through the Websites, including but not limited to reliance by you on any information obtained through or from the Websites, or that result from mistakes, omissions, interruptions, deletion of files or emails, errors, defects, viruses, worms, trojan horses, trap doors, back doors, easter eggs, time bombs, cancelbots or other code or computer programming routines that contain contaminating or destructive properties or that are intended to damage, detrimentally interfere with, surreptitiously intercept or expropriate any system, data or personal information, delays in operation or transmission, or any failure of performance, whether or not resulting from acts of god, communications failure, theft, destruction or unauthorized access to our records, programs or services, or otherwise arising out of the use of the Websites, whether resulting in whole or in part, from breach of contract, tortious conduct, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, even if Company and/or our affiliates, vendors and/or licensors have been advised of the possibility of damages.

14. Copyright infringement

Company is committed to protecting copyrights and expects you to do the same. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that any material used or displayed on Company Websites infringes your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked.

Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works on Company Websites are intended to be covered by a single notification, a complete list of such works and details or descriptions as to their locations within the Websites;
Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material;
Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted;
A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

15. Mandatory arbitration and class action and jury trial waiver

To the extent allowed by law, you hereby agree that either you or we may require any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the use of the Websites, to the Services provided by us, or to any acts or omissions with us (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory), including but not limited to any claim or controversy as to arbitrability ("Dispute"), shall be finally, and exclusively, settled by arbitration on an individual (non-class) basis. However, both parties retain the right to seek relief in a small claims court (or a state court equivalent) for a Dispute within the scope of its jurisdiction so long as the small claims action does not seek to certify a class, combine the claims of multiple persons, recover damages in excess of the limit for a small claim under applicable state law or is not transferred, removed, or appealed from small claims court to any different court. Additionally, if you are a California resident, you retain the right to obtain public injunctive relief from any court with proper jurisdiction.

THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS VERY LIMITED. ADDITIONALLY, ANY ARBITRATION OF A DISPUTE WILL BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND, THEREFORE, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. AS PART OF THIS WAIVER, YOU AGREE THAT YOU WAIVE THE RIGHT TO ACT AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL IN AN ARBITRATION; THAT EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, DISPUTES BROUGHT BY OR AGAINST YOU MAY NOT BE JOINED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH DISPUTES BROUGHT BY OR AGAINST ANY OTHER PERSON; AND THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO CONDUCT A CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ARBITRATION OR MULTIPLE-PARTY ARBITRATION.

You and we agree that your use of the Websites and Services involves interstate commerce, and that this arbitration agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) set forth in Title 9 of the U.S. Code to the fullest extent possible, notwithstanding any state law to the contrary, regardless of the origin or nature of the Disputes at issue. The arbitrator must follow, to the extent applicable: (1) the substantive law of the state in which we entered into the transaction giving rise to this arbitration agreement; (2) the applicable statutes of limitations; and (3) claims of privilege recognized at law. The arbitrator will not be bound by federal, state or local rules of procedure and evidence or by state or local laws concerning arbitration proceedings.

If either you or we elect to arbitrate a Dispute, it shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered under the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). Either you or we may elect to resolve a particular Dispute through arbitration, even if the other party has already initiated litigation in court related to the Dispute, by: (a) making written demand for arbitration upon the other party, (b) initiating arbitration against the other party, or (c) filing a motion to compel arbitration in court.

If this is a consumer-purpose transaction, the applicable rules will be the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules. The applicable AAA rules and other information about arbitrating a claim under AAA, including how to submit a dispute to arbitration, may be obtained by visiting its website at https://www.adr.org/ or by calling 1-800-778-7879. The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the AAA rules. Should no AAA rule regarding the selection of an arbitrator be in effect, the parties shall agree on an arbitrator mutually agreeable to both parties, but in the event the parties cannot agree, each shall select one AAA arbitrator and the two selected arbitrators shall select a separate AAA arbitrator to preside over the arbitration. Should the AAA decline to accept a matter submitted for individual (non-class) arbitration under this Agreement, the parties shall jointly select another arbitrator. In the event the parties are unable to agree on a neutral arbitrator, each shall select one arbitrator and the two selected arbitrators shall select a separate arbitrator to preside over the arbitration. However, we will abide by the applicable AAA rules regardless of the forum. Arbitration shall be conducted in the county and state where you accepted this Agreement, you reside, or another reasonably convenient place to you as determined by the arbitrator but only in jurisdictions in the United States and the District of Columbia where Company is licensed to provide mortgage related services, unless applicable laws require another location. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Except as provided in applicable statutes, the arbitrator's award is not subject to review by the court and it cannot be appealed. The parties will have the option to request and receive a statement of reasons for the arbitration award.

If you elect to file the arbitration, and this is a consumer-purpose transaction, you will pay the filing fee to the extent required by AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules but not to exceed the cost of filing a lawsuit. Any amount above what it would cost you to file a lawsuit, we will pay. All other arbitration fees and expenses shall be allocated to us according to AAA rules. Except for the arbitration fees and expenses, each party shall pay its own costs and fees incurred (including attorneys' fees), unless the arbitrator allocates them differently in accordance with applicable law. This paragraph applies only if this is a consumer-purpose transaction.

If any part of this arbitration provision is invalid, all other parts of it remain valid. However, if the class action limitation is invalid, then this arbitration provision is invalid in its entirety, provided that the remaining terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
