HOURS OF ACCESS
The Service(s) are generally available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, except during special maintenance and upgrade periods or system outages. We are not responsible for the unavailability of the Online Banking system or any consequential damages that may result from its unavailability.
MUTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION
Access to Online Banking requires the use of certain security procedures, including multi-factor authentication. These security procedures provide even greater levels of protection against fraudulent attacks such as phishing, spoofing, key logging and identify theft. In addition to your User Name and Password, you are required to select challenge questions and answers. You must keep your chosen challenge questions strictly confidential.
An additional security procedure is the authentication of your computer using a unique “cookie” placed on the computer for recognition by Online Banking. If the Online Banking system detects an attempted login from an unfamiliar computer, you will automatically be presented with previously selected challenge questions to verify your identity. Do not use computers or computer networks that are publicly accessible or that do not utilize commercially reasonable anti-malware and firewall protection.
We may offer or require additional security procedures from time to time. We make no representation or warranty that these security procedures will be effective to prevent unauthorized access to your Accounts on Online Banking. These security procedures are not intended to detect your errors with respect to transactions, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, you are responsible for such errors.
USE OF YOUR USER NAME AND SECURITY PASSWORD
The safety of our customers’ Accounts and Account information is of paramount importance to us. We go to great lengths to protect confidentiality and the security of your Account, and urge you to do the same.
Your User Name and Passwords are intended to prevent unauthorized access to your Accounts. You determine what Password and User Name you will use. Passwords are case sensitive. We recommend that you create a Password that utilizes both upper and lower case alpha and numeric characters for purposes of security. Your Password should not be associated with any commonly known personal identification such as social security number, address, date of birth, and names of children. Your Password should be memorized rather than written down. Choose a Password that is unique for you and not used for any other Accounts or services. Your Password and User Name should not be communicated to the Bank or any other person. If you have reason to believe that your Password, User Name or other security procedure has been lost, stolen, disclosed, or compromised in any way, you must notify us immediately.
- You agree not to allow anyone to gain access to the Services or to let anyone know your Password used with the Services.
- You accept sole responsibility for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your Password, User Name and challenge questions.
- You agree to assume responsibility for all transactions initiated through the Services with your User Name, up to the limits allowed by applicable law.
- While the Bank continues to provide our customers with the level of online security we believe necessary and appropriate, customers who share their User Names and Passwords are giving up the full benefit of our security measures and legal protections to which they may be entitled.
- No representative from the Bank will ever call or e-mail and ask for your User Name or Password; however, if you contact the Bank, you may be asked for your User Name and other personal information to verify your identity.
- You agree that we are authorized, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to act on instructions received by any person using your User Name and Password. To the extent permitted by law, you are responsible for such transactions.
- You agree to change your Password regularly (at least once every three months) and to follow our recommendations with respect to Password security.
Upon three (3) consecutive unsuccessful attempts to use a Password, your access to Online Banking will be revoked. To re-establish your authorization to use Online Banking, you must contact us to have your Password reset or to obtain a new temporary Password. You may call us at 1-844-787-4927 for assistance.
IF YOUR PASSWORD HAS BEEN LOST OR STOLEN
If your Password has been lost or stolen, contact the Bank immediately at 1-844-787-4972. Telephoning the Bank is the best way of minimizing your losses—DO NOT USE EMAIL TO NOTIFY US. You may also restore the security of your Service by immediately changing your Password.

You acknowledge your important role in preventing the misuse of your Accounts through Online Banking.
- You agree that you are responsible, to the fullest extent permitted by law, for all transactions you authorize, and any losses, damages, charges, or penalties arising from such transactions, using Online Banking, including those transactions that are unintentional or inadvertent, or made by unauthorized persons using your User Name and Password.
- You agree to promptly examine the statements for each of your Accounts as soon as they are made available to you and to monitor your Accounts regularly to ensure that transactions are authorized.

- You acknowledge that the Internet is inherently insecure, and that all data transfers, including electronic mail, occur openly on the Internet and can potentially be monitored and read by others. Data that is transferred through Online Banking is encrypted to improve transmission security. Encryption utilizes identification technology to ensure that only the sender and receiver of a transmission can translate data in the transmission. We cannot and do not, however, warrant that data transfers using encryption or any e-mail transmitted to or from us, will not be monitored or read by others. E-mail may not be encrypted and is not secure. Never send specific Account information via e-mail.
- You are responsible for protecting against unauthorized access to personal computers, equipment, networks, and software used to access Online Banking. You agree to utilize, at a minimum, up-to-date anti-malware and firewall safeguards, and any additional security measures recommended by us.

- You agree to notify us immediately at 1-844-787-4927 if you have any reason to believe security or confidentiality has been or may be breached

If you send the Bank an electronic message, the Bank will be deemed to have received it on the following Business Day.
You should not rely on electronic mail if you need to communicate with the Bank immediately (e.g., if you need to report an unauthorized transaction from one of your Accounts, or if you need to stop a payment that is scheduled to occur).
You agree that the Bank may respond to you by electronic mail with regard to any matter related to the Service, including responding to any claim of unauthorized electronic funds transfer that you make. Any such electronic mail sent to you by the Bank shall be considered received within three (3) days of the date sent by the Bank, regardless of whether or not you sign on to the Service within that time frame.

- Your name and Account number.
- A description of the error or the transfer in question, and an explanation concerning why you believe it is an error or need more information.

If this occurs, we will credit your Account within ten (10) Business Days for the amount you think is in error.

If your complaint or question is not received in writing within ten (10) Business Days from your original contact, we may not credit your Account until the investigation is completed.
If your notice of error concerns a transaction that occurred during the first thirty (30) days after the first deposit to the Account was made, the applicable time periods are twenty (20) Business Days in place of ten (10) Business Days and ninety (90) calendar days in place of forty-five (45) calendar days.

Mandatory Alerts provide you with important Account notifications, such as information about changes to your Online Banking Password, PIN, or login information. You do not have the option to suppress these Mandatory Alerts.
Account Alerts provide you with notification of important Account activities or when certain changes are made to your Service Accounts, such as scheduled payments made and mobile deposits. These Alerts are automatically activated for you. Although you may suppress these Account Alerts, we strongly recommend that you do not do so because they provide important information related to your Service Accounts.
Additional Alerts must be activated by you to be enabled. These Additional Alerts can be accessed from the “More” menu within the Bank’s Mobile Banking.
Account Alerts and Additional Alerts must be managed and/or added online through the Service. You cannot maintain all Alerts through your mobile device. We may add new Alerts from time to time, or cancel old Alerts. We usually notify you when we cancel Alerts, but are not obligated to do so. The Bank reserves the right to terminate its Alerts service at any time without prior notice to you.
Methods of Delivery: We may provide Alerts through one or more channels (“EndPoints”): (a) a mobile device, by text message; (b) a mobile device, by push notification; (c) an email account, by an e-mail message; or (d) your Online Banking message in-box, by an e-mail message. You agree to receive Alerts through these EndPoints, and it is your responsibility to determine that each of the service providers for the EndPoints described in (a) through (c) above supports the email, push notification, and text message Alerts provided through the Alerts service. Please be advised that text or data charges or rates may be imposed by your EndPoint service provider. Alert frequency varies by Account and preferences. You agree to provide us a valid mobile phone number and/or email address so that we may send you Alerts. If your email address or your mobile device’s number changes, you are responsible for informing us of that change. Your Alerts will be updated to reflect the changes that you communicate to us with regard to your primary and secondary email addresses or mobile device number.
Alerts via Text Message: To stop Alerts via text message, text “STOP” to 969-24 at any time. Alerts sent to your primary email address will be unaffected by this action.

Our participating carriers include (but are not limited to) AT&T, SprintPCS, T-Mobile®, U.S. Cellular®, Verizon Wireless, MetroPCS.
Limitations: The Bank provides Alerts as a convenience to you for information purposes only. An Alert does not constitute a bank record for the deposit or credit Account to which it pertains. We strive to provide Alerts in a timely manner with accurate information. However, you acknowledge and agree that your receipt of any Alerts may be delayed or prevented by factor(s) affecting your mobile phone service provider, internet service provider(s) and other factors outside the Bank’s control. We neither guarantee the delivery nor the accuracy of the contents of each Alert. You agree to not hold the Bank, its directors, officers, employees, agents and service providers liable for losses or damages, including attorneys’ fees, that may arise, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from (a) a non-delivery, delayed delivery, or the misdirected delivery of an Alert; (b) inaccurate or incomplete content in an Alert; or (c) your reliance on or use of the information provided in an Alert for any purpose.
Alert Information: As Alerts delivered via SMS, email and push notifications are not encrypted, we will never include your passcode or full Account number. You acknowledge and agree that Alerts may not be encrypted and may include your name and some information about your Accounts, and anyone with access to your Alerts will be able to view the contents of these messages.
