Below is a summary of the changes to Firmcheck’s Terms of Service, effective October 16, 2023.
The changes to our Terms of Service include:
an addition incorporating the acceptance of BioVerify's (our ID check partner) Terms of Service when accepting our Terms of Service and becoming a Firmcheck Customer
clarifying our stance on data deletion to be in line with what is set out in our privacy policy
Explaining the changes
Our new Terms of Service include the following addition:
14.2 By accepting these Terms of Service you are also accepting the Terms of Use of our ID check provider service: BioVerify. This service is available from within Firmcheck.
We have also made the following change to clarify that we will delete all subscriber information after 60 days from the date at which your subscription ends, and this data will not be retrievable post deletion – this aligns our Terms of Service, with the data deletion protocols set out in our Privacy Policy.
10.3.3. Your Content and Subscriber Information is archived and the data submitted or created by you is no longer available to you. We will remove your personal data from the Service within 60 days of the date on which your Subscription ends or at any time if you request us to stop using it. Subscriber Information that has been deleted will no longer be retrievable to you or us.
By continuing to use our services you are agreeing to the updated Terms of Service. If you do not agree, you can choose to discontinue using the services and close your Firmcheck account.
Do they have any impact on how I use Firmcheck?
These changes do not have any impact on how you currently use Firmcheck day to day, and they do not impact the functionality of the Firmcheck product.
These changes have simply been made to acknowledge our third-party provider's terms and clarify our stance on the deletion of your personal data once your subscription to Firmcheck ends.
