Back to Top2. Privacy and your Personal Information
For information about MiteWare’s data protection practices, please read MiteWare’s Privacy and Security Policy, which is hereby incorporated into this Agreement. This policy explains how MiteWare treats your personal information when you access MiteBudget.com and use the Service. The policy may be updated from time to time at our discretion. Changes will be effective upon posting to the site.
Back to Top3. Description of the Service
The Service is a personal finance information management service that allows Members to consolidate and track their financial information on MiteBudget.com. Based on such information, the Service may also present information relating to third party products or services (“MiteWare Offers”).
The Service is provided to you by MiteWare without charge (it is free) and is meant as an aid to assist you in organizing and managing your finances. It is not intended to provide legal, tax or financial advice.
Back to Top4. Account Information from Third Party Sites
With the Service, Members may direct MiteWare to retrieve their own information maintained online by third-party financial institutions with which they have customer relationships, maintain accounts or engage in financial transactions (“Account Information”). MiteWare works with one or more online financial service providers under contract to access this Account Information. MiteWare makes no effort to review the Account Information for any purpose, including but not limited to accuracy, legality or non-infringement. MiteWare is not responsible for the products and services offered by or on third-party sites.
MiteWare cannot always foresee or anticipate technical or other difficulties which may result in failure to obtain data or loss of data, personalization settings or other service interruptions. MiteWare cannot assume responsibility for the timeliness, accuracy, deletion, non-delivery or failure to store any user data, communications or personalization settings. For example, when displayed through the Service, Account Information is only as fresh as the time shown, which reflects when the information is obtained from such sites. Such information may be more up-to-date when obtained directly from the relevant sites. You can refresh your Account Information through the Service, in the manner prescribed in the associated instructions.
Back to Top5. MiteWare Offers and Third-Party Links
Some parts of the Service are supported by sponsored links from advertisers and display MiteWare Offers that may be custom matched to you based on information stored in the Service, queries made through the Service or other information. We will always disclose when a particular MiteWare Offer is sponsored.
In connection with MiteWare Offers, the Service will provide links to other web sites belonging to MiteWare advertisers and other third parties. MiteWare does not endorse, warrant or guarantee the products or services available through the MiteWare Offers (or any other third-party products or services advertised on or linked from our site), whether or not sponsored, and MiteWare is not an agent or broker or otherwise responsible for the activities or policies of those web sites. MiteWare does not guarantee that the loan, investment, plan or other service terms, rates or rewards offered by any particular advertiser or other third party on MiteBudget.com are actually the terms that may be offered to you if you pursue the offer or that they are the best terms or lowest rates available in the market.
Back to Top6. Your Registration Information
You agree and understand that you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password which, together with your LoginID e-mail address, allows you to access the Service. That Login ID and password, together with any mobile number or other contact information you provide form your “Registration Information.”
By providing us with your e-mail address, you agree to receive all required notices electronically, to that e-mail address. It is your responsibility to update or change that address, as appropriate. Notices will be provided in HTML (or, if your system does not support HTML, in plain-text) in the text of the e-mail or through a link to the appropriate page on our site, accessible through any standard, commercially available internet browser.
If you become aware of any unauthorized use of your Registration Information, you agree to notify MiteWare immediately at the email address - security@MiteBudget.com .
Back to Top7. Your Use of the Service
Your right to access and use MiteBudget.com and the Service is personal to you and is not transferable by you to any other person or entity. You are only entitled to access and use MiteBudget.com for lawful purposes.
Accurate records enable MiteWare to provide the Service to you. You must provide true, accurate, current and complete information about your accounts maintained at other web sites, as requested in our “add account” setup forms, and you may not misrepresent your Registration Information. In order for the Service to function effectively, you must also keep your Registration Information up to date and accurate. If you do not do this, the accuracy and effectiveness of the Service to you will be affected.
Your access and use of MiteBudget.com may be interrupted from time to time for any of several reasons, including, without limitation, the malfunction of equipment, periodic updating, maintenance or repair of MiteBudget.com or other actions that MiteWare, in its sole discretion, may elect to take.
Back to Top8. Online and Mobile Alerts
MiteWare may from time to time provide automatic alerts and voluntary account-related alerts.
Automatic alerts may be sent to you following certain changes made online to your MiteWare account, such as a change in your Registration Information.
Voluntary account alerts may be turned on by default as part of the Service. They may then be customized, deactivated or reactivated by you. These alerts allow you to choose alert messages for your accounts. MiteWare may add new alerts from time to time, or cease to provide certain alerts at any time upon its sole discretion. Each alert has different options available, and you may be asked to select from among these options upon activation of your alerts service.
Electronic alerts will be sent to the email address you have provided as your primary email address for MiteBudget.com. If your email address or your mobile device’s email address changes, you are responsible for informing us of that change. You can also choose to have alerts sent to a mobile device that accepts text messages. Changes to your email address or mobile number will apply to all of your alerts.
Because alerts are not encrypted, we will never include your passcode. However, alerts may include your MiteBudget.com Login ID and some information about your accounts. Depending upon which alerts you select, information such as an account balance or the due date for your credit card payment may be included. Anyone with access to your email will be able to view the content of these alerts. At any time you may disable future alerts.
