We use the terms “we,” “us,” and “our” to refer to Star Verification (the “Company”), which operates the Site; our employees, members, officers, partners, affiliated entities, representatives, attorneys, and agents. Any companies that provide the Materials or the Services to us or to you include but are not necessarily limited to Star Verification (all such companies that provide Materials and Services to you on our behalf are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Providers”). We use the term “Materials” to mean any data or information about you that we provide to you on any web page, email, text message, instant message, or printed page, including full and partial reports and summary alerts, as full or partial fulfillment of the Services.

These Terms and Conditions are a binding legal agreement between you and us and govern your access to the Site and your purchase and use of the Services. PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY.
III. The Provided Services
The Services consist of the products and services described on the Site, and include but are not limited to all products and services provided as a one-time transaction (“Transactional Services”). You acknowledge and agree that the Company obtains the Materials from the Providers. The Materials are intended to furnish you with information that you may not otherwise have readily available to you, but should not be relied upon for important personal and financial decisions. You should consult your own professional adviser for specific advice tailored to your personal situation. YOU AGREE THAT THE COMPANY AND THE PROVIDERS HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY INFORMATION (ACCURATE OR INACCURATE, COMPLETE OR INCOMPLETE) IN THE MATERIALS OR ANY REPORTS PROVIDED TO YOU AS PART OF THE SERVICES. Services are available to consumers in all 50 states. 
IV. In Order to Use the Site and/or the Services, You Must Provide the Following Information:
• You must provide valid debit or credit card payment information at the time of purchase of Transactional Services. We will verify your debit or credit card information before processing your order, including performing an authorization in an amount up to the stated fee associated with the purchase of Transactional Services. The authorization amount may count against your debit or credit limit. 
• You may or may not be required to provide your social security number and other personal information, such as previous addresses, employment, driver’s license, passport, official non-driver ID and other names, so that your information can be verified in order to use some Services.
• You must provide true, accurate, and complete information about yourself as prompted by the applicable form(s) for the Services to promptly update your information if and when it changes. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, or we have reason to believe that such information is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, we reserve the right to terminate or void your transaction.
V. Your Authorization to Charge Your Credit or Debit Card
BY SUBMITTING YOUR ORDER, YOU AUTHORIZE US TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT YOUR BANK ACCOUNT THE STATED TRANSACTION AMOUNT. 
VI. Purchases of Transactional Services are Final
Transactional Services typically involve an order process associated with your request to purchase and receive a specific product and/or service, including but not limited to a verification of your personal information provided. We will not issue a refund to you for any Transactional Services once verification has been completed and successful. If not or if you change your mind before we complete verification, then we will refund the amount paid for Transactional Services.
VII. Termination of Your Service
We reserve the right to terminate access to the Services at any time without notice, for any reason, including but not limited to (i) breach of these Terms and Conditions by you or anyone using your account, (ii) nonpayment for the Services (iii) conduct what we believe is harmful to the Services users, the business of the Company, or the Company’s affiliates, (iv) those reasons otherwise described in these Terms and Conditions, or (v) any other circumstances that we determine, in our sole discretion, merit termination. Any such termination may be with or without any refund to you.
You agree that we will not be liable to you or to any third party for any termination of your access to the Services.
VIII. Price/Terms Changes/Discontinuance of Service
If you purchase Transactional Services, you agree to pay the price in effect at the time of such purchase. All prices are exclusive of any taxes, except as required by applicable law. We reserve the right to change prices or to institute new charges for the Services, or any portion thereof, at any time. Price changes and new charges will apply to all new Services users from such effective date forward. We reserve the right at any time to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Site and the Services, or any part, version, or feature thereof, in our sole discretion without prior notice to you. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such material modifications to or suspensions or discontinuations of the Site or the Services, including by posting a notice on the applicable Site. We may also, but are not required to, provide you notice by sending an email message to the current email address listed for your account. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Site or the Services, or for any failure to notify you of same. Your continued use of the Services or of the Site, after any such changes, modifications, or charges have been made to the Site and/or Services, will constitute your acceptance of those changes, modifications, and charges.
IX. This is Not a Credit Repair Organization or Contract
Neither we nor the Providers are credit repair organizations, and neither we nor the Providers are offering to sell, provide, or perform any service to you for the express or implied purpose of either improving your credit record, credit history, or credit rating or providing advice or assistance to you with regard to improving your credit record, credit history, or credit rating. Accurate adverse information in your credit report cannot be changed. If you believe that your credit report contains inaccurate, non-fraudulent information, it is your responsibility to contact the relevant Repository, and follow the appropriate procedures for notifying the Repository that you believe your credit report contains an inaccuracy.
