Authentication

You are advised to keep your log-in details for the Services (including the Customer Portal, Broker Portal and Prospa App) private and confidential. Your log-in details are your responsibility and we advise you not to share those details with any party. Prospa does not take any responsibility for any unauthorised access or use of your Account through the Services (including via your Profile in the Prospa App) unless Prospa has failed to take reasonable steps to prevent such unauthorised access.

You hereby acknowledge that any party that accesses your Account (whether with or without your authorisation) shall be deemed to have done so as your agent and accordingly you agree to be bound by any acts of that party in relation to your Accounts (including, any transactions) other than where such access was as a result of negligence or willful misconduct of Prospa.

Security

Subject to the limitations of a user’s mobile device, a user may elect to enable fingerprint or facial recognition authentication to log on to the Prospa App. Such authentication uses the biometric identifiers registered on the user’s mobile device for the purposes of unlocking that mobile device. By enabling these authentication methods to be used for accessing the Prospa App you do not provide these biometric identifiers to Prospa and Prospa does not collect or store this information. Such information is stored on the user’s mobile device.

Should you choose to enable these authentication methods to access the Prospa App, it is your responsibility to ensure that only your biometric identifiers are stored on your mobile devices as all such identifiers stored on a device will be enabled to access the Prospa App. If another person’s biometric identifiers are stored on your mobile device, you acknowledge that they will be able to access your Account through the Prospa App. Any transactions that person may make through the Prospa App or on your Accounts will be deemed to have been authorised by you and conducted with your knowledge and consent.

We recommend that you keep the operating system and security software for your mobile device updated with any releases issued by the manufacturer of the mobile device or your system provider.

If your mobile device has been “jailbroken” the security of your device operating system will have been compromised. This makes you susceptible to the risk of third party applications that may contain malware or the ability for third parties to harvest your information, including information available through applications on your mobile device. You acknowledge that you are responsible for any loss or detriment that you may suffer as a result of using the Services on a jailbroken mobile device. If you choose to use the Services on a jailbroken device, Prospa will not be liable for any loss arising from your use of the Services or any other loss that may arise in connection with the Services as a result of your device being jailbroken.

User obligations

  • not use your Account for any activity that is fraudulent, improper or illegal;
  • not permit anyone else to access or use your Account or login to the Services (including the Customer Portal, Broker Portal or Prospa App) using your credentials;
