    You have indicated that you wish to receive and sign the documents relating to your transaction with us electronically regarding the Jetty Rent Loan product. We are required by law to give you certain information “in writing” – which means that you are entitled to receive it on paper. We need your consent to provide you with this information electronically, instead. We also need your general consent to use electronic records and signatures in our relationship with you.

    In this Consent, the words “we,” “us,” and “our” means Cross River Bank, an FDIC-insured New Jersey state-chartered bank, Jetty National Credit, Inc., or any agents, affiliates, representatives, successors and assigns, and third-party service providers. The words “you” and “your” means the person giving consent. “Communications” means each application, agreement, disclosure, notice, statement, privacy policy, record, document and other information we provide to you, or that you sign or submit or agree to at our request.

    Your Consent

    You agree that any of the Communications we provide to you, or that you sign or agree to at our request, may be in electronic form. We may also use electronic signatures and obtain them from you on any Communication.

    All Communications that we deliver to you in electronic form will be delivered either (1) by email, (2) by access to a website designated in an email notice from us, (3) through any mobile application we may make available, (4) to the extent permitted by law, by access to a website generally designated in advance for such purpose, or (5) in the manner specified in any other agreement we or our affiliates have with you. To access your online account, go to www.jetty.com and log in to your account with the e-mail address and password you provided when you created or updated your account. Communications will be accessible through your online account.

    We may always, in our sole discretion, provide you with any Communications on paper, even if you have authorized electronic delivery. Sometimes the law, or our agreement with you, requires you to give us a written notice. You must still provide these notices to us on paper, unless we tell you how to deliver the notice to us electronically.

    How to Withdraw Consent

    You can withdraw your consent to receive Communications electronically at any time by contacting us at 1-855-695-3889 or by email at help@jetty.com with the following subject line: WITHDRAW ELECTRONIC CONSENT. A withdrawal of your consent to receive electronic Communications will be effective only after we have had a reasonable period of time to process your withdrawal. If you withdraw your consent, we may be unable to provide you with the Jetty Rent loan product and may terminate your access to the Jetty Rent loan product. Any withdrawal of your consent to receive electronic Communications will be effective only after we have a reasonable period of time to process your withdrawal.  Before you withdraw your consent to electronic transactions, including receiving Communications electronically, please be aware that you can easily download, print, or email any Communications from the Jetty “My Account” website at www.jetty.com.

We reserve the right to discontinue support of a Current Version of software if, in our sole opinion, it suffers from a security flaw or other flaw that makes it unsuitable for use with our services.

    If our hardware or software requirements change, and that change would create a material risk that you would not be able to access or retain electronic Communications, we will give you notice of the revised hardware or software requirements. Continuing to use this service after receiving notice of the change is reaffirmation of your consent.

    Requesting Paper Copies

    We will not send you a paper copy of electronic Communications unless you request it or we otherwise deem it appropriate to do so. You can obtain a paper copy of any Communication we provide to you electronically by printing it yourself or by requesting that we mail you a paper copy. Request for paper copies must be made within a reasonable time after we first provided the electronic Communication to you. To request a paper copy, contact us at help@jetty.com. We may charge you a reasonable service charge for the delivery of paper copies of any Communication provided to you electronically pursuant to your authorization.

    Notice Regarding Specific Use of Credit and Consumer Information in Jetty Rent

     

    Because Jetty Rent is a loan product, your financial profile and creditworthiness is a factor in determining your eligibility and price.  Jetty does a soft credit check as a service provider for Cross River Bank during the application process to determine your eligibility for the product, and this soft pull will not affect your credit score.  After your loan application is approved and you are enrolled in Jetty Rent, Jetty will perform a hard inquiry as service provider for Cross River Bank which may affect your credit score.  You authorize Jetty to obtain consumer reports about you in this manner.

    In connection with your enrollment and participation in the Jetty Rent loan product, Jetty may report information about your payment history and loan account to credit bureaus.  Late payments, missed payments, or other defaults on your account may be reflected in your credit report.  Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you may have the right to receive a copy of your credit report. Each of the nationwide credit reporting companies – Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion – is required to provide you with a free copy of your credit report, at your request, once every twelve months. 

    Jetty generally uses TransUnion as its credit reporting agency. If you obtain a copy of your credit report from TransUnion, and you believe that report is inaccurate, you may contact Transunion to dispute items on the report at:

    TransUnion Consumer Relations
    2 Baldwin Place
    P. O. Box 1000
    Chester, PA 19016

    1-800-888-4213

    TransUnion cannot comment on your Jetty Rent application, however.

    Under federal law, you are also entitled to a free report if any company takes an adverse actions against you (e.g., denying your application for credit) and you ask for your report within 60 days of receiving notice of the action. If any adverse action, as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, is based, at least in part, on information contained in a consumer report, the user of the report must notify you. You may receive such notification in writing, orally, or by electronic means. The notification will include: 

    • The name, address, and telephone number of the consumer reporting agency (including a toll-free number) that provided the report;
    • A statement that the consumer reporting agency did not make the adverse decision and is not able to explain why the decision was made; and
    • A statement setting forth the consumer’s right to obtain a free disclosure of the consumer’s file from the consumer reporting agency if the consumer makes a request.

    Consent to Receive calls (including SMS text messages) from Jetty Rent® in regard to my account (for applicants for Jetty Rent products only) under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act


    You expressly consent and agree to receive communications (including but not limited to prerecorded or artificial voice message calls, text messages, and calls made by an automatic telephone dialing system) from Cross River Bank, its affiliates, successors and assigns, and third-party service providers acting on their behalf, such as Jetty National Credit, Inc., (together, “we” or “us”) regarding Jetty Rent, at any telephone number that you provide to us, now and in the future, including cellular telephone numbers. You agree to notify us if any telephone number associated with your Jetty Rent account changes or is reassigned to a new subscriber. You certify that you are authorized to provide this consent because you are either the subscriber of the telephone number you provide or a non-subscriber customary user with authority to provide this consent. Standard communication rates, fees, and charges from your telephone service provider may apply. You agree that we may monitor and record any communications between you and us for quality assurance and other permitted business purposes. You understand and agree that we may always communicate with you in any manner allowed by law that does not require your consent.

        • Payment for a surety bond is non-refundable
        • The surety bond is not insurance for the tenant 
        • The surety bond is being purchased to protect the landlord against loss due to non-payment of rent, breach of lease, or damages caused by the tenant. 
        • The tenant may be required to reimburse the surety for amounts the surety paid to the landlord.

    General Notice of Insurance Practices and Use of Consumer Reports

    In order to evaluate your eligibility for insurance coverage with us and to determine the correct premium to charge you, we may order one or more reports provided by independent consumer reporting agencies.

    These reports are necessary to verify information that you have provided us. Examples of reports include, but are not limited to, a Motor Vehicle Report (MVR), an insurance claim history report, and, where allowed by law, a credit score or an insurance score based on information contained in your credit report. We may use a third party in connection with the development of your insurance score.

    All reports are kept strictly confidential. Where scores are used, they are masked and processed automatically in Jetty’s electronic underwriting algorithm to determine a risk tier used in calculating your premium. The information we obtain will be used only for underwriting purposes. We may access future reports in connection with an update, renewal, extension, cancellation, or non-renewal of your insurance coverage. Inquiries related to insurance products (not Lease Guaranty or Security Deposit Bonds) will not affect your credit score, as they are considered a “soft hit”.

    Upon request, we will provide you with the name, address, and telephone number of any consumer reporting agency that furnishes us with your report. These consumer reporting agency scores do not take into account income, race, gender, religion, marital status, national origin or geographic location.

    We will review your credit history when we are legally required to do so, or you may request a review once for every six-month policy term. Any adjustment in premium made pursuant to a change in your credit history will be reflected on your next renewal offer.

    Specific Use of Credit and Consumer Information in:

    Lease Guaranty and Security Deposit Bond

    Lease Guaranty and Security Deposit products are Surety Bonds. They are supplemental guarantees that you are able to meet your obligations to the landlord or property owner of your leased unit and therefore have elements of a credit product based on your financial profile. For these reasons, additional information about your income, employment history, personal assets, and citizenship/visa status may be collected. The information we are collecting is necessary to verify information about you, and determine your eligibility and the correct premium to charge you for these products.

    Because Lease Guaranty and Security Deposit Bonds are a type of contingent credit, your financial profile and creditworthiness are the primary factors in determining eligibility. The inquiry used for these products is a standard credit inquiry (not an insurance score inquiry), and may affect your credit score.

    No information related to race, color, religion, national origin, actual or perceived gender (including gender identity), marital status, sexual orientation, disability, age, lawful occupation, presence of children, lawful source of income (including public assistance), or any other aspect of a protected Federal, state or locally protected class is used to determine eligibility or calculation of premiums.

    Extraordinary Circumstances

    If your credit information has been adversely impacted by an extraordinary life circumstance that has occurred within the last 3 years, certain states permit you to request in writing that we consider this when using your credit information. These extraordinary life circumstances include:

    CONNECTICUT: catastrophic illness or injury; divorce; the death of a spouse, child or parent; the involuntary loss of employment for more than three consecutive months; identity theft; or total or other loss that makes a home uninhabitable;

    DELAWARE: serious illness or injury; involuntary unemployment; divorce; identity theft; or involuntary interruption of alimony or support payments;

    INDIANA: divorce; serious illness; job loss; or death of an immediate family member;

    IOWA, KANSAS, KENTUCKY & NEW HAMPSHIRE: catastrophic event, as declared by the federal or any state government; serious illness or injury to you or an immediate family member; the death of your spouse, child or parent; divorce or involuntary interruption of legally-owed alimony or support payments; identity theft; temporary loss of employment for a period of three months or more, if it results from involuntary termination; or overseas military deployment; and

    NEW MEXICO: an acute or chronic medical condition, illness, injury or disease; divorce; death of a spouse, child or parent; involuntary loss of employment for more than three consecutive months; identity theft; or total or other loss that makes a home uninhabitable.

    If you believe any of these apply to you and have impacted your credit, you may request in writing that this be taken into consideration. We will require you to provide specific documentation of this circumstance and demonstrate how it has negatively affected your credit. The request must be made no more than 60 days from the date of the application for insurance or the policy renewal. Please submit your written request and all supporting documentation to Jetty Insurance Agency LLC, ATTN: Underwriting, 524 Broadway, 9th Floor, New York, NY 10012.
