      2. you acknowledge that information on non-compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement is transferred to such credit bureaus;
      3. the credit bureaus provide credit profiles and possibly credit scores on your credit worthiness, subject to the credit record;

    1. You understand, confirm and acknowledge that:authorizing Nedbank to act upon telephonic, fax, short message service (“sms”) and/or email instructions, or to correspond with you via sms, may not be the safest or most prudent way of managing your account as a result of the inherent shortcomings in relation to each of these methods;
    2. aside from asking questions relating to personal information, it is not possible for Nedbank to confirm the identity of any person providing instructions telephonically and that, should this personal information fall into the hands of a third party, it may be used for the purposes of committing fraudulent transactions;
    3. instructions sent by fax can very easily be tampered with, intercepted, fraudulently abused by outsiders, be the cause of delay in carrying out instructions contained therein, be mislaid or not be properly legible and it may furthermore not be possible to verify any signature
      that has been faxed;
    4. Nedbank cannot confirm that any instruction sent by email has indeed been sent by you and that the risk of email facilities being fraudulently abused by unauthorised persons cannot be excluded;
    5. correspondence sent to you via sms may be intercepted and fraudulently abused by outsiders with access to your mobile phone;
    6. by instructing and authorising Nedbank to accept telephone, fax, sms and/or email instructions, and to correspond with you via sms, you may be exposing yourself to risk, including but not limited to the aforementioned.
    7. Now therefore:
      1. you hereby indemnify Nedbank against and waive any rights in connection with any demand, claim, action, losses and damages of whatsoever nature which may be brought against Nedbank or which you may suffer or incur, whether directly or indirectly relating to or in connection with your account, whether directly or indirectly, and whether or not arising from any telephonic, fax, sms and/or email instruction given, or sms received, unless the matter is as a result of gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Nedbank or any of its employees or person acting for or controlled by Nedbank, in which case the matter shall be dealt with on its legal merits;
      2. you undertake that should any claim or action be made or instituted against Nedbank as a result of such gross negligence or wilful misconduct, any claim shall be limited to direct damages and that no indirect, special of consequential damages shall be claimed;
      3. you furthermore specifically indemnify Nedbank and hold it harmless from all demands, claims, actions, losses and damage of whatever nature in relation to:
        1. infringements of confidentiality arising from the use of the telephone, fax, sms and/or email to convey instructions to Nedbank;
        2. infringement of confidentiality arising from the correspondence that you received from Nedbank via sms;
        3. Nedbank acting, or not acting, on any instruction or arising from or out of the malfunction, failure or unavailability of any hardware, software or equipment, the loss or destruction of any data, power failures, corruption of storage media, interruption or distortion of communication links or storage media, natural
          phenomena, riots, acts of vandalism, sabotage, terrorism, any other event beyond Nedbank's control;
        4. damage arising from any event beyond Nedbank’s control;
        5. damage arising from the reliance of any person on incorrect, illegible, incomplete or inaccurate information or dates contained in any instructions received by or sent by Nedbank;
        6. damage arising from the sending of false, fraudulent or altered instructions to Nedbank by telephone, fax, sms and/or email;
        7. damage caused by the misplacement or loss, however caused, of any instructions sent to Nedbank by fax and/or email;
        8. damage caused by Nedbank’s delay to act immediately upon any instruction sent to Nedbank by telephone, fax, sms and/or email;
        9. the use, misuse, abuse or possession of any third party software, including without limitation, any operating system software, browser software or any other software packages or programs;
        10. any unauthorized access to your account or any breach of security or any destruction or accessing of your data or any destruction or theft of or damage to any of your equipment;
        11. your failure to adhere to any of the terms and conditions applicable to the services and/or your account; and/or
        12. the supplying of incorrect information, or by the failure or unavailability of third party facilities or systems, or the inability of a third party to process a transaction.
  12. CERTIFICATE AND OTHER DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS
    1. If any one of our managers, whose status or appointment need not be proved, signs a certificate stating:
