You agree that the use by you or by any other person accessing the Online System using your username and password to conduct business is the legal equivalent to your having authorized such action in writing, and the submission of instructions electronically as a result of the use of your username and password shall, except as provided in this agreement, have the same effect as if you delivered such instructions in writing to AFSC with intent to be legally bound. You agree that once such instructions are submitted to AFSC by way of the Online System, AFSC shall have no obligation to reverse them.
You agree that the Online System will not be used by you or by any other person on your behalf for illegal, fraudulent or defamatory purposes or for purposes which could affect the security or integrity of AFSC’s Online System hardware or software.

Upon receipt of such notice, AFSC will make reasonable efforts to prevent misuse of your username and password. Further, you may request that AFSC halt all electronic transactions on your account.

Notice of any amendments may be given either before or after the coming into effect of such amendments. If you use or continue to use the Online System after the latter of either notice or the date the amendment comes into effect, you are deemed to have accepted such amended terms and conditions. If you do not agree with the terms of this Electronic Access Agreement or any revised version of it, do not use or continue to use the Online System.
If there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Electronic Access Agreement and the terms and conditions of any agreement with AFSC for the delivery of services by AFSC, the terms and conditions of such other agreement shall apply to the extent of any inconsistency.
