Guardian Protection Automatic Payment Program Terms

By enrolling in Guardian’s automatic payment program (the “Program”) and providing your credit card, debit card, or financial account information (each, a “Payment Form”), you authorize Guardian and your financial institution or credit card issuer (each, a “Financial Institution”) to charge the Payment Form, including through an automated clearing house (or “ACH”), each month for your monthly bill amount on the payment due date, or, if applicable, on an annual, semi-annual, quarterly, or other regular interval for the corresponding bill amount.  Guardian will provide you with a copy of your authorization and these terms electronically and/or in paper form.

You certify you are the owner of the Payment Form and have the authority to authorize charges to it.  If there is a change in the Payment Form or related information (e.g., a change in account information or a credit card expiration date), you must notify Guardian at least 10 days in advance of such change and provide all updated information.  Guardian may also receive updated information from your Financial Institution.

Your authorization applies to the Payment Form on file and any subsequent information you provide to Guardian (e.g., by contacting Guardian’s customer service or through your online account) or your Financial Institution provides to Guardian.  Guardian reserves the right to modify all terms and conditions of the Program, including terminating the Program, at any time.  Guardian does not charge for the Program, but you should check with your Financial Institution for any additional charges. 

Your authorization and the Program will remain in effect until revoked by you, Guardian, or your Financial Institution.  You may revoke your authorization by contacting Guardian at 1.800.PROTECT (1.800.776.8328), or through your online account.  The revocation will take effect once Guardian has had a reasonable opportunity to act on it.  If you revoke your authorization or your Financial Institution does not process your automatic payment to Guardian, you remain responsible for paying your bill amount by the due date.  In addition, Guardian may charge a returned item fee and remove your account from the Program.  If your Financial Institution does not process your automatic payment, Guardian may retry the transaction.  Any promotional discounts or incentives that require your enrollment in the Program will be removed if your account is not enrolled in the Program or Guardian does not receive your automatic payment when due.

You have authorized Guardian to treat Your electronic signature and/or initials as evidence of your consent to initiate recurring electronic payment transactions from your Payment Form.  This authorization by electronic signature has the same effect as a handwritten signature on a paper contract.  Your consent only applies to the initiation of the recurring electronic payment transactions from your Payment Form on the payment due date.

You consent to receive all notices, billing statements, disclosures, documents, and communications relating to the Program, including your authorization and the Payment Form (collectively, “Communications”), from Guardian in electronic form via your email address of record on file with Guardian.  To receive electronic Communications, you agree to maintain a functioning device with an internet connection that can receive, retain, and print the Communications.  You may request a paper copy of a Communication by contacting Guardian at 1.800.PROTECT (1.800.776.8328) or the correspondence address on your bill.  Where permitted by law, Guardian may charge a fee for a paper copy, which fee will be disclosed at the time of Your request.  You can withdraw your consent and receive Communications on paper by calling or writing Guardian as indicated above.  If your email address or other electronic contact information changes, you must promptly provide Guardian with updated information by calling or writing Guardian as indicated above.  If Guardian is unable to deliver a Communication electronically, Guardian may attempt to contact you by telephone or other means.
