Welcome to the HPSI website (the “Website”) and HPSI Online Services. HPSI is willing to provide the HPSI Online Services (the “Services”) to you only upon your agreement that your access and use of the Services will be subject to the following Terms of Services (“TOS”). These TOS are an agreement between HPSI (“HPSI”) and users of the Services (“you”). These terms may be revised without notice and become effective upon posting on this site and your use of the Web Site. These terms were last edited on April 15, 2018.

Please read this entire document because it contains essential information.

1. DEFINITIONS

The following defined terms are used in these Terms and Conditions:
“Payee” means the merchant or other entity to which you authorize a bill payment to be directed.

“Payee Account” means the billing account with the merchant or other entity to which you authorize a bill payment to be directed.

“Payment Instruction” means your instruction and authorization to HPSI to make a bill payment to a Payee.

“Payment Account” means the bank account that you authorize us to debit by electronic funds transfer when you make your bill payment using account information from your checking or savings account.

“Payment Card” means the credit card or debit card that you instruct us to charge to pay your bill payment. “Business Day” means Monday through Friday, excluding Federal Reserve holidays.

2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

A. GENERAL SITE USAGE

The Services provide users with access to various online resources, including applications that allow you to view your bill. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance the current Services, including the release of new Services, shall be subject to this TOS. Upon your acceptance of these TOS by clicking on the “I Accept” button below, HPSI grants you a personal, non-exclusive, nontransferable, license to access and use the Services, subject to these TOS, solely for your internal purposes. The preceding license includes the specific rights to use the available applications and functionalities of the Services and to print information from the Services. HPSI does, however, reserve the rights to, without notice: (a) modify, suspend or terminate operation of or access to the Services at any time for any reason; (b) modify or change the Services or its applicable operating policies at any time; and (c) interrupt the Services as necessary to perform routine and non‐ routine maintenance, error corrections, or other changes. HPSI also reserves the right to modify these TOS at any time, in which case you will be provided notice that the TOS has been changed. Your continued use of the Services after your notification of the revised TOS constitutes your agreement to the amended TOS.

B. BILL PAYMENT SERVICE

When you initiate a Payment Instruction, you authorize HPSI to charge your Payment Card or debit your Payment Account and remit funds to HPSI on your behalf so that the funds arrive as close to the Business Day designated by you as is reasonably possible. While it is anticipated that most transactions will be processed on the day you choose, it is understood that due to circumstances beyond the control of HPSI, some transactions may take a day or so longer to be credited to your Account.

If we are unable to obtain funds for a bill payment for any reason associated with your Payment Card or Payment Account (for example, there is not a sufficient balance available on your Payment Card or in your Payment Account to cover the transaction), then we will not be able to complete your bill payment transaction. If there is a problem in processing your Payment Instruction, HPSI may attempt to contact you, using the telephone number you have provided.

If HPSI makes a bill payment to your Account but is unable to obtain funds for that payment from your Payment Card or Payment Account, you agree that your bill payment will be reversed.

You further agree that by accepting these terms of service, you also authorize our Customer Service Representatives to receive and process single and recurring payments Instructions from you over the telephone.

3. OUR LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO COMPLETE TRANSACTIONS

HPSI will use commercially reasonable efforts to process your bill payments by your Payment Instructions. However, HPSI shall incur no liability if a bill payment is not made promptly or if it is unable to complete any payments initiated by you through the Bill Payment Service because of the existence of any one or more of the following circumstances:

4. Sufficient funds are not available through your Payment Account or your Payment Card;

Failure of any Payee to account correctly for or credit the payment promptly, or otherwise mishandle or delay the payment;
The Bill Payment Service is not working correctly, and you know or have been advised by HPSI about the malfunction before you execute the transaction;
