Paperless Billing and Electronic Consent

ALTOR is pleased to offer electronic delivery of invoices and debit withdrawal notices (collectively, “Billing Documents”) applicable to your eligible selected policies. Only those policies that you have selected will be enrolled for this service.  Not all policies are eligible for this service.  You must complete ALTOR’s electronic paperless billing form to enroll in “Paperless Billing”.  By agreeing to enroll in Paperless Billing, you are also providing ALTOR with Electronic Consent to send communications.

“Paperless Billing” refers to the services available through the Site that permit you to electronically view Billing Documents. By enrolling in Paperless Billing, you consent to electronic delivery and agree to be bound by these Paperless Billing Terms of Use, in addition to the other Terms of Use for the Site. If you do not agree with any of these Terms of Use, you may not enroll in Paperless Billing.  We are not required to deliver information electronically.  We may discontinue Paperless Billing in whole or in part, or change the Terms and Conditions, at any time. Your continued participation in Paperless Billing will constitute your acceptance of any revisions to these Terms of Use. Please check these Terms of Use on the Site regularly.

Upon enrolling in Paperless Billing, you will receive a confirmation email from us. You should contact ALTOR CUSTOMER SERVICE at 1-844.442.5867 if you do not receive this confirmation email within 48 hours.

You agree to electronically receive eligible Billing Documents either (1) via e-mail; or (2) by your accessing the Site through your username account, pursuant to an e-mail notice that we send to you at the time a Billing Document becomes available.  It is your responsibility to log in to your username account for the Site to view your Billing Documents.  We may continue to send paper copies of certain documents to you via United States Postal Services (USPS), if required by law or as otherwise necessary due to technical or process considerations.  Electronic delivery is not currently available for all documents.

It is your responsibility to maintain a valid, current email address and immediately notify us of any change in your email address through your Username Account. Ensure that your email is active and capable of receiving new emails from us.  Your email account must have sufficient space for new emails and your email server and spam-blocking software must not block our emails. We are not responsible for problems arising from emails sent to an inactive or out-of-date email address, or for email messages that are undeliverable because your email address was not capable of receiving email messages from us, unless we are solely negligent for using an incorrect address. We will make an additional attempt to redeliver an email message that is returned to us as undeliverable. If it is returned once again as undeliverable, we will presume that you have withdrawn your consent, you will be unenrolled in Paperless Billing, and going forward your Billing Documents will be sent to you via the United States Postal Service (USPS).

Your consent to enrollment in Paperless Billing will remain in effect for each selected policy until termination or cancellation of the policy, or until you revoke your consent. Electronic delivery will remain in effect following any policy modification or renewal.  There is no charge associated with enrolling or unenrolling in Paperless Billing. You may unenroll from Paperless Billing and withdraw your consent to transact business electronically by updating your preferences through your username account under Settings.  (Please allow up to 24 hours to process your unenrollment.) Your invoice delivery selection does not alter the payment due date or debit withdrawal date and may not take effect until the next billing cycle. 

Billing Documents will be made available via your username account in a PDF or HTML format, so you must have a valid email account, access to an Internet browser, appropriate document viewer and an active username account to access and view the Billing Documents.  If you wish to print billing documents, you must also have access to a printer.  Note that you may have the ability to access and view your Billing Documents on demand through the Site.

We will not send you a paper copy of any Billing Document unless you request it, we otherwise deem it appropriate, or we are legally required to do so. You may obtain a paper copy of any Billing Document we provide to you electronically by printing it yourself or by requesting that we mail you a paper copy. To request a paper copy of a Billing Document, contact your ALTOR Agent, or ALTOR Customer Care at 1844.442.5867. 

All communications in either electronic or paper format from us to you will be considered “in writing.” You should print or download for your records a copy of all Billing Documents, these Paperless Billing Terms and Conditions and any other document that is important to you.

You acknowledge and agree that your consent to transact electronic business is being provided in connection with a transaction affecting interstate commerce that is subject to the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, and your state’s UETA law as applicable.

PAYMENTS

We offer the convenience of paying your premium online with a credit card or via ACH. A service fee charged by ePayPolicy of 3.5% applies ONLY to Credit Card transactions. ePayPolicy retains this fee for its services related to processing credit cards. Although you will see one charge to your credit card, the fee is separate and distinct from the charge you will incur from paying your ALTOR National Liability Insurance invoice.

Any fees incurred due to NSF, returned checks or cancellation of payments will be applied to your account balance.

In the event that your payment is not funded by your banking institution, a notice of cancellation will be processed in line with any previous notices you have received.  

Making a payment after a policy has canceled due to nonpayment of premium will not reinstate your policy. 

It is our practice to confirm payments by e-mail. By agreeing to ePayPolicy, you are also agreeing to our Consent of Electronic Communications. The receipt of an e-mail confirmation does not constitute our acceptance of a payment.

Limitations of Damages

In no event will ALTOR, or its employees, officers, directors or any of its subsidiaries, be liable to any person or entity for any direct, indirect, special, consequential or other damages (Including, without limitation, any lost profits, business interruption, loss of information or programs or other data on any information handling system) that are related to the use of, or the inability to use, any aspect of the site including without limitation the content and functions of the site or any linked website, even if ALTOR is expressly advised of the possibility of such damages.
