1. Scan – Provides you an initial scan of which sites have your personal data within Provider’s covered sites network.

2. Removals – This service facilitates the removal of your personal information on your behalf found by scanning Provider’s covered sites network. Removal requests are not always granted, are not guaranteed to be successfully communicated, and may not be honored by all of Provider’s covered sites under all circumstances and for reasons outside of Provider’s control or the control of Provider’s agent, used solely to remove personal information from Provider’s covered sites (“Provider’s Agent”).

   In certain instances, Provider and Provider’s Agent may not be able to remove your personal information.

   1. In the event further verification is required to commence or complete the removal process, Provider will email you to inform you that an action is required to complete the process.
   2. In the event Provider and /or Provider’s Agent is not able to remove your personal information, Provider will email you to inform you or provide instructions with recommended steps for you to remove your personal information on your own, if possible.

You acknowledge that scans involve the inputting, searching, and/or communication of your information to the third-party people finder sites in order to determine if your information is stored on or by the covered sites, and you agree to such use of your personal information. Covered people finder sites are subject to change without notice. Provider may select which people finder sites to scan and may vary such selection on a scan-by-scan basis at Provider’s sole discretion. While some removal requests will be automated on your behalf, you acknowledge that such removal requests are not automatically granted, are not guaranteed to be successfully communicated, and may not be honored by all covered sites under all circumstances and for reasons outside of Provider and/or Provider’s Agent’s control. This process may require you to verify your identity by providing personal information directly to the Provider.

This service is not available for offline enrollees.

The FCRA allows you to obtain all of the information in your consumer credit file from any consumer credit reporting company for a reasonable charge. The FCRA allows consumers to get one free comprehensive report of all of the information in their credit file from each of the 3 Major Bureaus once every 12 months through a central source. To request your free annual report under the FCRA, you must go to www.annualcreditreport.com. CreditSecure is not related to the free FCRA report that you are or may be entitled to. You may also be entitled to receive a free report under the law of the state where you reside.

The FCRA also states that you are entitled to receive a report directly from the consumer credit reporting company free of charge under the following circumstances:

• You have been denied credit, insurance or employment in the past 60 days as a result of your credit report;
• You certify in writing that you are unemployed and intend to apply for employment in the 60-day period beginning on the day you make the certification;
• You are a recipient of public welfare assistance; or
• You have reason to believe that your file at the credit reporting company contains inaccurate information due to fraud.

The FCRA also permits you to dispute inaccurate information in your credit report without charge. Accurate information cannot be changed. You do not have to purchase your credit report or other information from American Express or CreditSecure to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information in your credit file or to receive a copy of your credit report.

The credit report you receive through CreditSecure is not intended to constitute the disclosure report of Experian information required by the FCRA or similar state laws. Experian's National Consumer Assistance Center provides a proprietary consumer disclosure report that is different from the consumer credit report provided by ConsumerInfo.com, Inc. This disclosure report must be obtained directly from Experian by going to www.experian.com/dispute.

Credit reports obtained through CreditSecure may not have the same information as credit reports obtained directly from the 3 Major Bureaus or pursuant to the free annual FCRA report that you are entitled to.

In order to comply with applicable law, or due to security considerations, access to the CreditSecure website from certain international locations may be restricted.

Addresses outside of the United States are not eligible for CreditSecure. Should an enrollee’s billing address change to an international address, his/her CreditSecure membership will automatically be terminated.

MOST CUSTOMER CONCERNS CAN BE RESOLVED QUICKLY AND TO THE CUSTOMER'S SATISFACTION BY CALLING AMERICAN EXPRESS AT 1-866-617-1893. IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT THAT AMERICAN EXPRESS IS UNABLE TO RESOLVE A COMPLAINT YOU MAY HAVE TO YOUR SATISFACTION (OR IF AMERICAN EXPRESS HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE A DISPUTE IT HAS WITH YOU AFTER ATTEMPTING TO DO SO INFORMALLY), YOU AND AMERICAN EXPRESS EACH AGREE TO RESOLVE THOSE DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF IN COURTS OF GENERAL JURISDICTION TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

ARBITRATION IS MORE INFORMAL THAN A LAWSUIT IN COURT. ARBITRATION USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY, ALLOWS FOR MORE LIMITED DISCOVERY THAN IN COURT, AND IS SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY COURTS. ARBITRATORS CAN AWARD THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF THAT A COURT CAN AWARD. ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. AMERICAN EXPRESS AND/OR PROVIDER WILL PAY ALL COSTS OF ARBITRATION, NO MATTER WHO WINS, SO LONG AS YOUR CLAIM IS NOT FRIVOLOUS. HOWEVER, IN ARBITRATION, BOTH YOU AND AMERICAN EXPRESS AND/OR PROVIDER WILL BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ATTORNEYS´ FEES FROM THE OTHER PARTY TO THE SAME EXTENT AS YOU WOULD BE IN COURT.

(a) American Express, Provider, and you agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims relating to CreditSecure, except any disputes or claims which under governing law are not subject to arbitration. This agreement to arbitrate (the "Agreement") is intended to be broadly interpreted and to make all disputes and claims relating to CreditSecure subject to arbitration to the fullest extent permitted by law.

You agree that you, American Express, and Provider are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(b) A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). The Notice to American Express and/or Provider should be addressed to:

American Express ADR
c/o CT Corporation System
111 Eighth Avenue
New York, NY 10011

("Notice Address"). The Notice must describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and set forth the specific relief you seek from American Express and/or Provider ("Demand''). If American Express and/or Provider and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or American Express and/or Provider may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by American Express and/or Provider or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or American Express and/or Provider is entitled.

You may obtain more information about arbitration from www.adr.org.

(c) After American Express and/or Provider receives Notice at the Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration, it will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee. (If you are unable to pay this fee, American Express and/or Provider will pay it directly upon receiving a written request at the Notice Address.) The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address.

All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision as well as the meaning of this Agreement´s other terms and conditions, and the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any such dispute relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision or any other term of this Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this arbitration provision or Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Unless American Express and/or Provider and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise provided for herein, American Express and/or Provider will pay all AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated in accordance with the notice requirements above. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all such fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse American Express and/or Provider for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules.

(d) The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees and expenses at any time during the proceeding or in the final award, pursuant to applicable law and the AAA Rules.

(e) Discovery and/or the exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the dispute will be governed by the AAA Rules.

(f) YOU, AMERICAN EXPRESS, AND PROVIDER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and American Express and/or Provider agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. If this specific subparagraph (f) is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void.

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if American Express and/or Provider makes any change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to the Notice Address) during your enrollment in any credit monitoring or other product, you may reject any such change and require American Express and/or Provider to adhere to the language in this provision if a dispute between us arises regarding such enrollment product.
