2. Minimum Requirements and Security
- This Site and mobile application utilize encryption software. In order to use the Site or a Site, you must have a personal computer or other device with an Internet browser that has adequate encryption of at least 128-bit with TLS 1.2 or above.
- While we use state-of-the-art security, no system can guard against risks of intentional intrusion or inadvertent disclosure of information. When using the Site, information may be transmitted over media that are beyond the control of Company or its Affiliated Entities, and their contractors and subcontractors, and that may not be secure. For example, you may receive email, text, or telephone communications in connection with your use of the Site, all of which are inherently unsecure and subject to disclosure to or access by third parties (e.g., if your phone is used by someone else, you do not keep your phone or email information up to date on the Site and communications are misdirected, or the network or systems of a telecommunications provider are hacked). Furthermore, electronic services such as those provided by Company or its Affiliated Entities, their contractors and subcontractors, and any telecommunications providers involved in the transmission of data are all inherently subject to failure and none of the foregoing can guarantee that their services will be provided without error or interruption at all times that you may wish to use those services.

You may access the Site whenever it is available to others. FFF would like to make it available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (less downtime for maintenance, etc.) but cannot guarantee that it will actually be available. Accordingly, you should take your own precautions, such as maintaining a paper record of your Transactions and the terms that apply to your Transactions on this Site.
4. Security, Confidentiality, and Usage Guidelines for the Sites
You agree to be responsible for the administration of access to the Site in accordance with these Terms of Service. For the purposes of all information provided to and activities conducted within the Site, you agree that all actions taken and charges made directly or indirectly utilizing your passwords or other identifying mechanisms will be attributed to and legally bind you and, to the extent allowed by law, your agent. You should change password information immediately if you or an agent suspect that someone else has gained unauthorized access to it or if you want to withdraw authorization. Password information may be changed only by the user. You (and agents, if lawful) will be bound by uses of password information even if the person using it had no actual authority or acted in error or made an error. Accordingly, you agree, and agree to cause your agents, to protect password information as confidential information and to save it in an appropriate manner and place, prohibiting access by unauthorized users. We secure your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. The personally identifiable information you provide is maintained by us on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information is transmitted from your PC and/or mobile devices to the Site, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. As a user of the Site, you hereby agree that you (and not Company or its Affiliated Entities) are solely liable for viruses, worms, Trojan horses, cancel bots, and other electronic mechanisms designed to destroy or impair the functioning of computer systems already residing on your PC and/or mobile device.
