Account Aggregation Service

The Service currently provides an account aggregation function that allows Consumer to view, in a single location on the Consumer Site, consolidated financial information from such accounts that Consumer maintains at various financial institutions as Consumer may designate from time to time (“Outside Accounts”).

To use the account aggregate function, Consumer understands and agrees that:

• The function is not available for all types of accounts and/or for all financial institutions.
  
  
• Financial institutions change their web sites from time to time. As a result an Outside Account that was available may cease to be available to the Service. Neither NYLIC nor its technology vendors have any control over this situation and have no obligation to restore the availability of the Outside Account on the Consumer Site.
  
  
• Consumer is responsible for designating the Outside Accounts whose information Consumer desires to aggregate.
  
  
• For each available account that Consumer desires to aggregate on the Consumer Site, Consumer must provide NYLIC’s third party aggregation vendor with the necessary login credentials to access the Outside Account such as username and password. Consumer will provide this information through such function and process as our technology vendors may determine from time to time. At no time should Consumer provide login credentials to access Outside Accounts to Agent, NYLIC, or any other Third Party.
  
  
• The account aggregation function will access the web site maintained by each third-party financial institution for each Outside Account designated for aggregation in order to retrieve and store the account information within the Outside Account.
  
  
• Consumer grants NYLIC and its technology vendors authority, with respect to each Outside Account designated for aggregation, to (1) use the login credentials for such Outside Account in order to access the account information within such Outside Account, (2) retrieve the account information within the Outside Account and (3) store the account information so retrieved and display such information to Consumer and the Agent.
  
  
• For each Outside Account designated for aggregation, Consumer represents and warrants to that Consumer is the legal owner of the account, Consumer has the right to disclose his or her login credentials for such Outside Account and Consumer has the right to grant the foregoing authorization.
  
  
• Neither NYLIC nor its technology vendors are responsible for any acts, errors, or omissions by the financial institutions at which Consumer maintains an Outside Account, or for the accuracy of the information provided by such institutions.
  
  
• NYLIC may terminate the account aggregation function at any time without notice to Consumer.
  
  

The Vault

The Service currently provides a service known as the Vault which allows Consumer to store and retrieve documents on the Service. To add a document to the Vault, Consumer must provide a copy of the document to the Agent if that document is to be added to a folder contained in the Vault other than a private folder to which the Consumer may have access. The Agent is responsible for uploading the document to the Vault and organizing Consumer’s documents in the Vault into separate electronic “folders.” Consumer understands and agrees that Consumer will have “view only” access to materials in the Vault that the Agent has added and that any addition, deletion, modification or organization of Consumer’s documents in the Vault must be processed through the Agent.

Consumer understands and agrees that:

• For each document stored in the Vault, Consumer represents and warrants that Consumer lawfully possesses such document and has the authority to have the document uploaded, stored and made retrievable to and from the Vault.
  
  
• Consumer is solely responsible for the content of any document that Consumer provides for inclusion in the Vault. Consumer agrees not to use the Vault to store any document or information that is unlawful, offensive, indecent, or otherwise actionable by any third party.
  
  
• Neither NYLIC nor its technology vendors are responsible for any use or dissemination of Consumer’s documents by any third parties to whom Consumer or the Agent grants authorization to view his or her documents.
  
  
• The document storage function is provided to Consumer as a convenience.
  
  
• The documents retained in the document storage service should not be Consumer’s sole copy of such documents.
  
  
• Consumer is responsible for retaining originals of the documents he or she chooses to store in the Vault.
  
  
• NYLIC, its technology vendors, and/or Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the contents of any document solely on the basis of the inclusion of such document in the Vault.
  
  

Alliance Partners

In addition to the user roles of Agent and Consumer, the Service also provides a user role that allows other service providers to Consumer, such as Consumer’s banker, accountant or attorney (known as "Alliance Partners"), to access and view all of the information stored by the Service in relation to Consumer. For example, the Alliance Partner role allows Consumer to direct the Agent to permit Consumer’s family lawyer access to Consumer’s information in the Service to assist with estate planning and other needs.

Consumer understands and agrees that:

• Alliance Partner usage is arranged solely through the Agent including the creation and assignment of the Alliance Partner’s login credentials. Therefore, it is the responsibility of Consumer and the Agent to determine whether and for how long to allow any Alliance Partner to access Consumer’s information.
  
  
• The Agent will provide Consumer with an authorization form specifying the Alliance Partners permitted to access Consumer’s information and the duration of such access. Once the authorization is signed and dated by the Consumer, the Alliance Partner will be able to access and view Consumer’s Information stored in this Service, unless and until the Consumer revokes the access privileges of an Alliance Partner (i.e., revokes the authorization form).
  
  
• Neither NYLIC nor any of its technology vendors shall be liable for any act or omission on the part of the Agent in relation to Alliance Partners or any act or omission of the Alliance Partner.
  
  
• The Alliance Partner function is provided to Consumer as a convenience.
  
  
• NYLIC and/or Agent may revoke the access privileges of an Alliance Partner at any time without notice to either Consumer or Alliance Partner.
