(i)              it must not be identified as a User ID or password, but must instead be concealed or coded such that someone finding the record is unable to use the recorded password directly – e.g. by adding dummy characters, or embedding them in long strings of characters and numbers); and

(ii)             it must be stored securely (not on a desk, monitor or in your wallet/purse);

(b)            notify us immediately upon becoming aware that the Login may be lost or stolen, or becoming aware or suspecting that another person knows the Login, or has used the Login, without your authority; and

(c)             if the Login information is lost or stolen, immediately change the password of your account to protect against fraudulent use of the Services.
