Autopilot; Supplier Brokerage and Agency Agreement
Our Autopilot Service is designed to help you switch to a better energy plan via automatic enrollment. Arbor maintains a database of Default Utility Rates and Supplier Rates in competitive electricity markets. Our goal is to match you with a cheaper and/or cleaner energy supply option.
If you indicate that you want to lower your energy bill, there is a Rate in our database that is lower than your Current Rate, and you have activated Autopilot, then we will attempt to enroll you in the lowest cost Rate in our database. If you indicate that you want to switch to 100% renewable energy, there is a Rate in our database that is 100% renewable, and you have activated Autopilot, then we will attempt to enroll you in the lowest cost 100% renewable energy Rate in our database. Alternatively, you may manually request to enroll in a new rate without the use of Autopilot. In all cases, we will notify you when we initiate a request for a new Rate and will give you an opportunity to opt out. If you do not opt out, you will be enrolled in the Supplier Rate.
Upon the expiration of the initial term of a Rate in which Arbor enrolls you, Arbor will seek to enroll you in the lowest Supplier Rate available through the Arbor platform that satisfies your preferences. You will be notified via the email address on file before Arbor enrolls you in any new Rate, and you will have an opportunity to opt out. If you do not opt out, Arbor will enroll you in the new Rate.
There is no direct cost to you for this service, and you may cancel at any time by emailing support@joinarbor.com.
Our Supplier Brokerage Services may not be available to every User, in every jurisdiction, or at all times, and we reserve the right to offer this Service at our sole discretion.
You authorize Arbor to solicit electric supply prices or Utility bill credits from Suppliers on your behalf as your agent, whether directly or through a Supply Brokerage Platform. You further authorize Arbor to act as your agent with the power to express interest in a Supplier's Rate, and negotiate with such Supplier. You grant Arbor your explicit, informed, and affirmative consent to initiate service and enroll you in a Rate with a Supplier pursuant to the terms above, whether directly or through a Supply Brokerage Platform, and you authorize Arbor to grant your explicit, informed, and affirmative consent to a Supplier on your behalf. You understand and agree that, where Autopilot is activated and so long as specified conditions are satisfied, any such enrollment and initiation of service may occur automatically without your additional consent, unless you opt out.
In addition to the authorizations granted above, you expressly authorize Arbor to modify or cancel your enrollment with any Supplier, either at your request or at Arbor’s discretion. This includes the authority for Arbor to act on your behalf in all matters related to the modification or cancellation of such enrollments, including but not limited to, negotiating terms, executing amendments or termination agreements, and fulfilling any necessary procedural or regulatory requirements. You understand and agree that Arbor may exercise this authority based on its assessment of your best interests, in response to changes in market conditions, Supplier terms, or other relevant factors. In instances where modifications or cancellations are made at Arbor’s discretion, Arbor will endeavor to notify you of such changes as soon as reasonably practicable. Your continued use of Arbor’s services following any modification or cancellation shall constitute your acceptance of such changes.
By enrolling in our Supplier Brokerage Service, you expressly authorize Arbor to sign Supplier contracts on your behalf. You authorize Arbor to act as your agent in signing such contracts or agreements, and you agree that such contracts or agreements will have the same legal effect as if you had signed them yourself. You also authorize Arbor to generate a Letter of Authorization (LOA) to effectuate these Terms pursuant to any applicable regulatory requirements, and you explicitly authorize Arbor to act as your agent in signing such LOA(s) on your behalf. Such LOA(s) will be made available to you in your Arbor online account, and you agree they will have the same legal effect as if you had signed them yourself. You agree that Arbor may sign contracts or agreements associated with Supplier Rates on your behalf with the signature “[USER FIRST NAME LAST NAME] BY Arbor Energy Holdings Inc. (LOA)” or similar language. You also authorize Arbor to receive all Supplier Account Notices and expressly assign your rights to any such notices to Arbor.
You agree that Arbor may share your Utility Account Information with Suppliers and Supply Brokerage Platforms or others as needed, and in conformity with our Privacy Policy, to accomplish contract solicitation, execution, enrollment, and services post-execution. You further agree that your Utility or a Supplier may share such information it has about you to Arbor to accomplish contract solicitation, execution, enrollment, and services post-execution. Arbor may show this Agreement to Utilities, Suppliers, or other authorized parties as required or authorized by law.
You will receive any notifications about potential changes to your Supplier Rate to the email address Arbor has on file for your Account. You will also be able to view the status and history of your Supplier Rates by viewing information in your Utility Account or as otherwise presented to you by Arbor.
Satisfaction Guarantee: If you are not satisfied with your new Rate, for any reason, Arbor will reimburse you for any early termination fee you incur as a result of terminating the Supplier contract associated with your Rate if you cancel your service within (90) days of the actual effective date of your Supplier Rate. Upon such termination we will enroll you in your Default Utility Rate, or similar service that matches what your Current Rate was at the time you signed up for Arbor.
If you join Arbor while on an existing Supplier contract, you may be liable for an early termination fee from your current Supplier if we switch you to another Supplier Rate consistent with this Agreement. If you are assessed an early termination fee by the Supplier, about which you notify us and for which you furnish proof of payment, Arbor will reimburse you either by paying the Supplier directly or by paying you an amount equal to the fee, not to exceed $50.
