UVA Community Credit Union Consumer Referral Program

UVA Community Credit Union (“we”, “UVACCU” or “Credit Union”) is offering you the opportunity to refer friends via a Consumer Refer a Friend Program (“Program”) offered on the web site located at https://friends.uvacreditunion.org/consumer-referral-program and through branch offices (collectively referred to as the “Site”).

1. Binding Agreement. By using the Site or participating in the Program, you are bound by these Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) and indicate your agreement to them. All of UVACCU's decisions are final and binding. The Program is subject to all applicable federal, state, and local regulations and is void where otherwise restricted or prohibited by law.

2. Privacy. The personal information collected, processed, and used as part of the Program will be used in accordance with UVACCU’s Privacy Notice and Online and Mobile Privacy Policy.

3. Electronic Records Consent. You consent and agree to receive electronic disclosures related to the Program as outlined in UVACCU’s E-Sign Disclosure.

4. If you wish to unsubscribe from the Consumer Refer a Friend Program emails, please use the link from one of the referral emails.

5. How the Program Works. You must be a current member of UVACCU in good standing, a legal resident of the United States of America, and at least 18 years old to use the Site. Next, you must visit the Site and follow staff or on-screen instructions to refer friends, family members, or colleagues. Users may refer a maximum of 2 friends, family members, or colleagues per calendar year. Once an individual makes a referral, he/she becomes a “Referrer” and will be provided with a unique referral link (“Personal Link”) that allows him/her to receive the benefit or reward advertised on the Site. To qualify for the reward for each referred friend, your referral must:

   1. meet the membership requirements to join UVACCU;
   2. be 18 years or older;
   3. open a personal membership consisting of a UVACCU Share Savings Account, Checking account, debit card, and enroll in online banking and e-statements within 30 days of account opening; and
   4. the referral must be received by November 23, 2024.

   Additionally, your referral must fund their Primary Share Savings account with at least $25 and their checking account with at least $20 at the time of account opening, or within 30 calendar days if the membership is opened online, and have an overnight balance of the same amount(s). A minimum ongoing balance of $5 is required in a UVACCU Share Savings Account.

6. Restrictions. Referrers cannot refer themselves or create multiple fictitious or fake accounts with UVACCU or participate in the Program as “Friends”. No user may use the Program to violate any law, infringe or violate the rights of any third party, or otherwise act in a manner that is deemed harassing, harmful, illegal, hateful, and obscene or outside the spirit and intent of the Program. In addition, you may not (i) tamper with the Program, (ii) act in an unfair or disruptive manner, or (iii) use any system, bot or other device or artifice to participate or receive any benefit in the Program. CAUTION: ANY ATTEMPT TO DELIBERATELY DAMAGE OR UNDERMINE THE LEGITIMATE OPERATION OF THE PROGRAM MAY BE IN VIOLATION OF CRIMINAL AND CIVIL LAWS. SHOULD SUCH AN ATTEMPT BE MADE, UVACCU RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SEEK REMEDIES AND DAMAGES (INCLUDING ATTORNEY FEES) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW, INCLUDING CRIMINAL PROSECUTION.

   Employees of UVACCU or promotional agencies are not able to participate.

7. Rewards. By making a valid referral, you will receive a $200 cash reward into your primary Share Savings account at UVACCU 30 days after the Friend completes the requirements for a qualifying referral as set forth in these Terms and Conditions. You can earn a maximum of $400 in rewards per calendar year. Rewards are subject to verification. UVACCU may delay a reward for the purposes of investigation and UVACCU’s decision on any investigation is final and in its sole discretion. Referred members will also receive a $200 reward in their primary Share Savings account at UVACCU after 30 days of satisfying the qualifications set forth in these Terms and Conditions.

   Rewards are not transferable and may not be auctioned, traded, bartered or sold. All federal, state, and local taxes, if any, are the sole responsibility of the reward recipient.

8. Liability. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE RELEASED PARTIES (DEFINED BELOW) SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF UVACCU WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES).

Referrals must be created and distributed in a personal manner that is appropriate and customary for communications with friends, colleagues and family members. By submitting any email address as part of the Program, the Referrer represents that he/she has the appropriate permission and consent. Bulk email distribution, distribution to strangers, or any other use of the services described herein in a manner that is not promoted is expressly prohibited and may be grounds for immediate termination and further legal action. UVACCU has no obligation to monitor the Program or any communications; however, UVACCU may choose to do so and block any email messages, remove any such content, or prohibit any use of the Program. Referrers who do not comply with the law, including anti-spam laws, are obligated to indemnify the Program Entities against any liabilities, costs, and expenses it incurs as a result of such spam.

Users agree to notify UVACCU immediately if they suspect unauthorized access to their account. Users agree that UVACCU will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from unauthorized use of their credentials.
