From time to time, due to the performance of maintenance, malfunctions or failures of software, equipment, or telecommunications devices, unusual transaction volume, or similar reasons, the Site may not be available for your use. We minimize the periods of time during which the Site is unavailable. You agree that we shall not be responsible for any loss, damages, costs, or expenses which you may suffer or incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of the unavailability of the Site, regardless of whether it could be shown that we could have prevented or reduced the duration of such unavailability by taking any action within our reasonable control.

SMS Consent
Providing your telephone contact information to us means you have consented in writing to receive SMS communications (text messages) from us. When consenting to messaging notifications, you authorize us and our assigns, successors or servicing agents to send SMS Notifications (as defined below) to any phone number provided to us or to our assigns, successors or service agents in connection with your account, application, loan, and closing.

How to Unsubscribe: You may withdraw your consent to receive SMS Account Notifications by replying with “STOP, END, CANCEL. UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT” or by calling us at 512-975-2947 at any time. We may treat your provision of an invalid mobile phone number, or the subsequent malfunction of a previously valid mobile phone number, as a withdrawal of your consent to receive SMS Account Notifications. Any withdrawal of your consent to use SMS Account Notifications will be effective only after we have a reasonable period of time to process your withdrawal.
To request additional information, contact us by telephone at 512-975-2947. In order to access, view, and retain SMS Account Notifications that we make available to you, you must have: (i) a SMS-capable mobile phone, (ii) an active mobile phone account with a communication service provider; and (iii) sufficient storage capacity on your mobile phone.
All SMS Account Notifications in electronic format from us to you will be considered “in writing.”
There is no service fee for SMS Account Notifications but you are responsible for any and all charges, including but not limited to fees associated with text messaging, imposed by your communications service provider. Please consult your mobile service carrier’s pricing plan to determine the charges for sending and receiving text messages. These charges will appear on your phone bill. Message frequency depends on account status or settings. We may modify or terminate our text messaging services from time to time, for any reason, and without notice, including the right to terminate text messaging with or without notice, without liability to you.
MARKETING CALLS AND TEXTS: We will not use autodialed or prerecorded calls or texts to contact you for marketing purposes unless you provide us with prior express written consent.
