If OfferBooth requests that you complete a deposit in order to resolve a negative balance issue and you fail to do so, you authorize OfferBooth to initiate a deposit in the amount of such deficiency from your linked bank account or debit card. If you have more than one account, OfferBooth may set off the negative balance in one account by using any balance that you hold in your other accounts (and then close such additional accounts).

16. Unauthorized Transactions

If an Unauthorized Transaction (as defined below) or Error (as defined below) occurs through your account, and you follow the procedures set forth in this Section, OfferBooth will reimburse you for the amount of any eligible Unauthorized Transaction and any losses resulting from an Error, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section.

What Constitutes an Unauthorized Transaction or Error?

For purposes of this Section, “Unauthorized Transaction” means a transaction that was initiated from your account without your authorization and that does not benefit you.

For example, if someone steals your phone and makes a payment without your permission, it would constitute an Unauthorized Transaction. However, if you share your login credentials with someone who then sends money without your permission, that would not constitute an Unauthorized Transaction.

For purposes of this Section, an “Error” means one of the following: (i) if your bank account, debit card or credit card is charged for a deposit, OfferBooth receives the funds, but it doesn’t show up in your account, (ii) if you complete a transaction and the funds are not properly delivered by debit card or credit card, (iii) if you send a payment and we debit your account for an amount in excess of the send amount, (iv) if you receive a payment and we do not add the proper amount to your account, (v) if the transaction records in your OfferBooth Account do not accurately reflect your transactions.

Notifying OfferBooth of an Unauthorized Transaction or Error

You should notify us immediately if you believe that (i) an Unauthorized Transaction or Error has occurred, (ii) your password and/or two-factor authentication access has been compromised, (iii) a device on which you have downloaded the OfferBooth app or which contains an active OfferBooth session has been stolen or lost, or (iv) you believe there is an Error in your transaction records or account history, or you have a question regarding your transaction records or account history.

Remember, if your OfferBooth -enabled phone is ever lost or stolen, in addition to notifying OfferBooth immediately, you can also login on another device and force all other active devices and sessions to be logged out through the Settings menu.

Notification Process

The fastest and most efficient way to notify us of an Unauthorized Transaction or Error is to contact Support via email at support@offerbooth.com . You can also notify us by phone during our phone support hours by calling +91-89683-00669 or by sending an old fashioned letter to OfferBooth Internet Financial, Panchkula, India. If you choose to notify us by phone, we may require that you follow up any phone discussion with a written confirmation within ten (10) business days so that we have a documented record of your notification.

However you choose to notify us, you must include: (i) the name, email and phone number associated with your OfferBooth Account, (ii) a detailed description of what Unauthorized Transaction or Error you believe occurred, or what information you need in order to determine if an Unauthorized Transaction or Error occurred, and (iii) the amount of such Unauthorized Transaction or Error.

Note that in connection with investigating and/or resolving any Unauthorized Transaction or Error, we may need to request further information from you regarding the circumstances of the Unauthorized Transaction or Error. If you do not provide such additional information, it may inhibit our ability to resolve your issue or your rights under this Section.

Steps OfferBooth Will Take Following Notification

Once you have provided us with proper notification (including delivering all of the information set forth in the subsection above and responding to any requests for further information), we will investigate the potential Unauthorized Transaction or Error. We will typically be able to complete our investigation within ten (10) days, but may require up to thirty (30) days if your account is new (meaning your account has been open for less than thirty (30) days at the time we receive your notification).

Sometimes, we may need more time in order to complete our investigation (up to thirty (30) days, or sixty (60) days for a new account). If we need to take more than ten (10) days to investigate your claim (or thirty (30) days for new accounts), we will provisionally credit your account with the amount of such Unauthorized Transaction or Error.

Once we have completed our investigation, we will notify you of our decision within three (3) business days. If we have determined that your claim of an Unauthorized Transaction or Error is valid and eligible, we will credit your account for the amount of the Unauthorized Transaction or Error, subject to the limitations set forth below. If we have already provisionally credited your account and determine that your claim of an Unauthorized Transaction or Error is valid and eligible, you will be allowed to keep such provisional credit. If we have already provisionally credited your account and determine that your claim of an Unauthorized Transaction or Error is not valid and/or eligible, the amount provisionally credited will be debited from your account.

Regardless of the results of our investigation, we will send you an email explaining the basis for our decision. If you have any questions or concerns regarding our decision, you can request further information regarding the details that led to our decision.

Errors We Discover

If we discover an Error on our own that results in you receiving less than the amount of funds to which you are entitled, we will rectify it by crediting your account for the difference. If we discover an Error on our own that results in you receiving more than the amount of funds to which you are entitled, we will rectify it by debiting your account for the difference.

Due to these limitations, you should always keep a close eye on your OfferBooth account, push notifications, email receipts and monthly account statements that you receive from OfferBooth to make sure that such transactions are authorized or so that you can avail yourself of the full benefits of this Section

17. Reversals, Chargebacks & Other Claims

If a payment that you receive is later invalidated for any reason, you are responsible to OfferBooth for the full amount of such payment. This means that if the sender disputes the authorization for transaction or initiates a chargeback with their bank or card issuer, you may be liable for the full amount of such payment. If it is determined that such transaction was unauthorized or the chargeback is validated by the sender’s bank or card issuer, you authorize OfferBooth to recover any amounts due to OfferBooth by deducting such amount from your OfferBooth Account balance. In the event that your OfferBooth Account balance is not sufficient to cover the full amount, you authorize OfferBooth to reverse any withdrawals or require you to take other steps to reimburse OfferBooth. If OfferBooth is unable to recover the full amount that is owed, OfferBooth may take additional steps including the initiation of legal actions to recover the full amount, to the extent allowed by applicable law.

18. Taxes

OfferBooth will maintain a record of your transaction history, which you will be able to access through your OfferBooth Account for purposes of making any required tax filings or payments, but it is your responsibility to determine what, if any, taxes apply to the payments you make or receive, and to collect, report, and remit the correct tax to the appropriate tax authority. OfferBooth will make any tax withholdings or filings that we are required by law to make, but OfferBooth is not responsible for determining whether taxes apply to your transaction, or for collecting, reporting, or remitting any taxes arising from any transaction.

19. Amendments

We may amend any portion of this Agreement at any time by posting the revised version of this Agreement with an updated revision date. The changes will become effective, and shall be deemed accepted by you, the first time you use the Services after the initial posting of the revised User Agreement and shall apply on a going-forward basis with respect to transactions initiated after the posting date. In the event that you do not agree with any such modification, your sole and exclusive remedy is to terminate your use of the Services and close your account. You agree that we shall not be liable to you or any third party as a result of any losses suffered by any modification or amendment of this Agreement.

If the revised Agreement includes a material change we will provide you with prior notice via our website and/or email before the material change becomes effective. For this purpose a “material change” means a significant change other than changes that (i) are to your benefit, (ii) are required to be made to comply with applicable laws and/or regulations or as otherwise required by one of our regulators, (iii) relates to a new listing, businesses or service made available to you, or (iv) to otherwise clarify an existing term.

20. Third Party Applications

If you grant express permission to a third party to connect to your account, either through the third party's listing, businesses, and services or through OfferBooth, you acknowledge that granting permission to a third party to take specific actions on your behalf does not relieve you of any of your responsibilities under this Agreement. Further, you acknowledge and agree that you will not hold OfferBooth responsible for, and will indemnify OfferBooth from, any liability arising from the actions or inactions of this third party in connection with the permissions you grant.

21. Website; Third Party Content
