An overview of the Service

The Service is free.

It is meant as an aid to you in organising and managing your finances. It is not intended to provide legal, tax or financial advice. We are not authorised to provide advice under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. If you require such advice please seek advice from an authorised adviser.

The Service is a personal finance management service that allows Users to aggregate and track their financial information. Based on such information, the Service may give you information relating to third party products or services.

You can use the Service to retrieve your own information maintained online by third-party financial institutions with which you have a customer relationship. We refer to this as “account aggregation”. Examples include bank accounts and credit cards. We have no responsibility for the products and services provided to you by these third parties.

We use one or more online service providers to access this information.

We do not check the account aggregation information for accuracy.

We cannot always foresee or anticipate technical or other difficulties which may result in failure to obtain data or loss of data. We do not assume responsibility for the timeliness, accuracy, deletion, non-delivery or failure to store any User data, communications or personalisation settings.

When displayed through the Service, aggregated information is only as up to date as the information obtained from such sites. Such information may be more up-to-date when obtained directly from the relevant sites.

Advertising

Some parts of the Service are supported by links from advertisers that may be custom matched to you based on information stored in the Service, queries made through the Service or other information. We will not disguise any adverts in the service.

We do not endorse, warrant or guarantee the products or services available through the links. We do not guarantee that any loan, investment, account or other service terms, rates or rewards offered by any particular advertiser 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.

Online and Mobile Alerts

Part of the Service is to provide automatic alerts which we send, and account related alerts which you set up.

Automatic alerts will be sent to you if there is a material change to the Service, for example the content of the Privacy Policy.

You can create account related alerts as part of the Service. These can be customised, deactivated or reactivated by you. These alerts allow you to choose alert messages for your accounts. We may add new alerts from time to time, or cease to provide certain alerts at any time at our discretion.

Electronic alerts will be sent to the email address you have provided as your primary email address. You can also choose to have alerts sent to a mobile device that accepts text messages. Because alerts are not encrypted, we will never include your password. However, alerts you create will include information about your accounts, such as your account balance or the due date for your credit card payment. Anyone with access to your email will be able to view the content of these alerts.

Your User Information

Please keep your profile details, particularly your email address, mobile email address, and mobile phone number up to date. If you do not do this, we will not be able to deliver any alerts to you. We will send all further alerts to the new address provided.

By providing us with your e-mail address, you agree to receive all required notices electronically, to that e-mail address.

You agree and understand that you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password which, together with your username, allows you to access the Service.

If you become aware of any unauthorised use of your User information, you agree to notify us immediately at security@moneydashboard.com.

Your Use of the Service

Your right to access and use 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 the service for lawful purposes.

You agree to provide us with information which is accurate, and not to misrepresent your identity or your User information.

What you allow us to do

By submitting information, data, passwords, usernames, PINs, other log-in information, materials and other content to us through the Service, you are licensing that content to us solely for the purpose of providing the Service. We may use and store the content, but only to provide the Service to you. By submitting this content to us, you represent that you are entitled to submit it to us for use for this purpose, without any obligation by us to pay any fees or other limitations.

By using the Service, you expressly authorise us (Money Dashboard and the relevant third party online service providers) to undertake account aggregation through identified third parties, on your behalf as your agent. When you use the “Add Accounts” feature of the Service, you will be directly connected to the website for the third party you have identified. We will submit information, ordinarily your username and password, you provide to log you into the site. You hereby authorise and permit us to use and store information submitted by you to the Service (such as account passwords and usernames) to accomplish the foregoing and to configure the Service so that it is compatible with the third party sites for which you submit your information. For purposes of this Agreement and solely to provide account aggregation to you as part of the Service, you grant us a limited power of attorney to access third party sites, retrieve and use your information with the full power and authority to do and perform each thing necessary in connection with such activities, as you could do in person. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WHEN WE ACCESS AND RETRIEVE ACCOUNT INFORMATION FROM THIRD PARTY SITES, WE ACT AS YOUR AGENT, AND NOT AS THE AGENT OF OR ON BEHALF OF THE THIRD PARTY. You understand and agree that the Service is not sponsored or endorsed by any third parties accessible through the Service.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive your acceptance of this Agreement and the termination of this Agreement.
