Terms of Service
Effective date: July 17, 2026 · Last updated: July 17, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the TruNorth Systems website at trunorthsystems.org, our client portal, and our text messaging program (together, the “Services”). Please read them carefully. By using the Services, you agree to these Terms.
1. Acceptance of these Terms
By accessing or using the Services, you confirm that you accept these Terms and agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
2. Our services, and your agreement with us
TruNorth Systems LLC (“TruNorth”) provides debt resolution and settlement support services. This website and portal are tools for managing an account with us — they are not themselves an offer of service and do not create any obligation on our part to resolve, reduce, or settle any debt.
If you have signed a separate agreement with us covering your account, that agreement governs the service itself — including fees, payment terms, the scope of any authority you give us, and what we do and do not promise. Where these Terms and that agreement conflict, that agreement controls. Nothing on this website modifies it.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Services. You agree that the information you give us is accurate and that you will keep it up to date.
4. Your account and the portal
You are responsible for keeping your portal credentials confidential and for activity that happens under your login. Tell us promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission. We may suspend access where we reasonably suspect unauthorized use or a security risk.
5. Text messaging program
Our text messaging program sends account-related messages — for example payment reminders, plan updates, and service notifications — to consumers who have consented to receive them.
Consent
We send text messages only to people who have given us consent, obtained:
- through our online opt-in form — by checking the text message consent box on our contact and text sign-up form, where the full program disclosure is shown next to the checkbox;
- on a recorded telephone call with one of our representatives, in which we identify ourselves and describe the messages you will receive, and where we retain the recording as the record of your consent; or
- in a signed written agreement with us that includes a separate authorization to receive text messages.
Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing any goods or services from us.
Message frequency
Message frequency varies depending on your account activity.
Cost
Message and data rates may apply. These are charged by your mobile carrier, not by us.
Opting out
Reply STOP to any message to stop receiving texts from us. We will send one confirmation message and then stop, other than any message required to complete a transaction you have already authorized.
Help
Reply HELP to any message, or contact us at contact@trunorthsystems.org or (859) 379-5618.
Delivery and carriers
Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Message delivery depends on your carrier and your device, and we cannot guarantee that every message will arrive.
Your mobile number
You confirm that you are the subscriber or customary user of the mobile number you give us, and you agree to tell us promptly if that number changes or is reassigned. Text messaging is not a secure channel; please do not send sensitive personal or financial information by text.
Privacy
How we handle your mobile information is described in our Privacy Policy.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.
6. Payments
Where you authorize a payment through the portal, you confirm that you are permitted to use the payment method and that the details you give us are accurate. The terms of any payment plan — amounts, timing, and what happens if a payment is missed — are set by your signed agreement with us, not by this page.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Services for any unlawful purpose, or in breach of these Terms;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Services or another person's account;
- interfere with, disrupt, or place unreasonable load on the Services;
- scrape, harvest, or copy content from the Services by automated means; or
- impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation with anyone.
8. Our content
The content on this website — including text, layout, graphics, and the TruNorth name and logo — belongs to us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property law. You may view and print pages for your own personal, non-commercial use. Any other use requires our written permission.
9. Educational content is not advice
Any general information we publish about debt and credit is for education only. It is not legal, financial, tax, or credit-repair advice, and it does not take account of your particular circumstances. Nothing on this website creates an attorney-client relationship. For advice about your situation, speak to a qualified professional.
10. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including those of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, TruNorth will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your use of the Services.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify TruNorth against claims, losses, and reasonable expenses arising from your misuse of the Services or your breach of these Terms, except to the extent caused by us.
12. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of South Carolina, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Any dispute arising out of these Terms or the Services will be brought in the state or federal courts located in South Carolina, and you and TruNorth each consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
13. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date above and post the updated Terms on this page. Continuing to use the Services after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
