Security & Protecting Your Account
We are strongly committed to protecting the security and confidentiality of our customer accounts information. We use several techniques to help secure our Digital Banking service, including the following:
- You can only access Institution with certain browsers that have a high security standard.
- Your account numbers are never displayed in full - only the last 4 digits can be viewed.
- You must have a valid Digital Banking ID and password to logon.
- If no action is taken for 10 minutes, you will be automatically logged off the Digital Banking service.
- You must have access to email or telephone, for calls or texts, to receive a Secure Access Code (SAC).
Requirements
To access Digital Financial Services you must have a web browser utilizing the most current software version and 256 bit data encryption.
In addition to compatible software, you must have a Digital Banking ID, password, access to email or telephone for SAC delivery, and maintain one or more of the following eligible accounts at Institution,
(i) Checking;
(ii) Savings;
(iii) Certificate of Deposit; or
(iv) Loan
Password
Your password will give you access to Institution accounts via Digital Banking. Institution is entitled to act on any instructions it receives using your Password. For security purposes, it is recommended that you memorize your password and do not write it down. We also recommend that you change your password regularly to try and avoid misappropriation by a third party. Your password can be changed via Digital Banking. You are responsible for keeping your password and account data confidential. When you give someone your password, you are authorizing that person to use Digital Banking and the Digital Financial Services. You are responsible for all transactions performed using your password, even if you did not intend or authorize them. In addition, fraudulent transactions initiated using your password will be charged against your account(s).
Accessibility
You can usually access Digital Financial Services seven (7) days a week, twenty-four (24) hours a day. However, at certain times, some or all of Digital Banking or Digital Financial Services may not be available due to system maintenance or reasons beyond Institution's control. Institution does not warrant that Digital Banking or Digital Financial Services will be always available. When unavailable, you may use CNB Infoline – Telephone Banking 800-342-2620, an automated teller machine ("ATM"), or an Institution branch office to conduct your transactions. A Digital Financial Service transaction initiated prior to 4:00 PM (Central Time) on a banking day is posted to your account that day. All transfers completed after 4:00 PM (Central Time), or on a non-banking day, will be posted the following banking day.
Restrictions
You may not appropriate any information or material that violates any copyright, trademark or other proprietary or intellectual property rights of any person or entity while using the Digital Banking or Digital Financial Services. You may not gain, or attempt to gain, access to any Digital
Banking and/or Digital Financial Service server, network or data not specifically permitted to you by Institution or its suppliers, and you must not include any obscene, libelous, scandalous, or defamatory content in any communications with Institution or its suppliers.
Bill Payment Service
The Bill Payment service allows you to schedule bill payments through Digital Banking. Institution does not provide the service directly. Instead, Institution entered into an agreement with a bill payment provider to provide the bill payment services directly to you. Subject to any regulatory or Institution-imposed limitations on usage, you can arrange, at your option, for the payment of your current, future, and recurring bills from a checking account. There is no limit to the number of payments that may be authorized, and you may pay any merchant or individual approved by the bill payment provider; however, the amount of any individual payment may not exceed $9,999.99. While payments are initiated by you electronically, they are ultimately paid via an automated clearinghouse (ACH) network or by a paper check. Payments delivered over an ACH network are governed by the rules and performance standards of that network.
By furnishing the names of your payees/merchants and their addresses, you authorize Institution and its bill payment provider to follow the payment instructions you provide for those payees/merchants. When payment instructions are received, funds will be remitted from the selected account to the appropriate payee on your behalf on the day that you request ("Payment Date"). However, there is no obligation to make requested payments unless your account and/or overdraft protection plan has sufficient funds or credit availability to pay the bill as of the Payment Date. Funds for bill payments will be withdrawn from your account on the applicable Payment Date. A bill payment account ("Bill Payment Account"), separate from any account you hold at Institution, is established at the Bill Payment provider. When the Bill Payment provider receives notification of any return item, such as NSF or Account Closed, a block is placed on the Bill Payment Account for a minimum of five (5) business days. This prevents you from initiating any additional payments through the Bill Payment Account or from having any recurring or future dated payments made until the original return item has been paid. The bill payment provider is obligated to pay any late fees incurred by you because of late payments so long as you allow ten (10) business days for payments by check and at least four (4) business days for electronic payments.
Institution and its Bill Payment provider reserve the right, at their discretion, to implement security features to reduce risk of loss. These may include requiring pre-authorized drafts, verifying funds through an ATM network, and separating debits from credits so that payments are not sent until after good funds are received.
Institution and its Bill Payment provider also reserve the right to terminate your use of Bill Payment services at any time.
If, for any reason, you should ever wish to cancel Digital Banking, we strongly suggest that you cancel all future bill payments at the same time. This will ensure that future payments and transfers made by you will not be duplicated. We will automatically delete any outstanding payment orders (all individual payments and all recurring payments) once we have been notified that your Bill Payment service has been terminated. We will continue to maintain your accounts until you notify us otherwise.
Responsibility
Neither Institution nor its suppliers will be liable for any transaction if’
(i) you do not have enough money in your account to complete the transaction;
(ii) a legal order prohibits withdrawals from your account;
(iii) your account is closed or has been frozen;
(iv) the transaction would cause your balance to go over the credit limit for any credit arrangement set up to cover overdrafts;
(v) you, or anyone you allow, commits fraud or violates any law or regulation in connection with Digital Banking or Digital Financial Services;
(vi) any electronic terminal, telecommunication device or part of the electronic fund transfer system is not working properly;
(vii) you did not provide us with complete and correct payment or transfer information;
(viii) you did not properly follow the instructions for use of Digital Banking or Digital Financial Services;
(ix) you knew that Digital Banking and/or the Digital Financial Services were not operating properly at the time you initiated the transaction or payment;
(x) there is postal delay; or
(xi) circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood or improper transmission or handling by a third party) that prevent, hinder, or delay the transaction.
Fees and Charges
You must promptly pay the following fees and charges for use of the Digital Financial Services described in this Agreement.
Personal Bill Payment
The monthly Bill Payment fee covers service for the prior month and is effective upon your enrollment in the Bill Payment service. The monthly Bill Payment fee will be charged to your payment account at Institution regardless of whether any bill payments are made during the applicable month. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all fees shall be deducted automatically monthly from a payment account you designate at Institution. In the event your payment account has insufficient funds to cover any fees, Institution may deduct the fees from any other account you have at Institution in any order it chooses. If you close the designated payment account, you must notify Institution and identify a new payment account for the selected Digital Financial Services. Additionally, if you close all Institution accounts, you must notify Institution and cease all use of the Digital Financial Services. If fees cannot be collected from any of your accounts, Institution may cancel all or some of your Digital Financial Services. After cancellation, Institution may reinstate some or all of the Digital Financial Services, at its discretion, if you deposit sufficient funds in your account(s) to cover any accrued fees and pending transfers or debits. You are solely responsible for any telephone or Internet service provider charges incurred when using the Digital Financial Services.
Unauthorized Transactions
You should notify us immediately if you believe anyone has improperly obtained your password or if you suspect any fraudulent activity in your account(s). If your password has been compromised and you tell us within two (2) business days of discovering the loss or misappropriation, you can lose no more than $50. If you do not tell us within the two (2) business day period, you could lose as much as $500 if we could have stopped the use of your accounts had we received notice in a timely manner. You should contact us, or the bill payment provider, as applicable, as soon as you identify any errors or discrepancies in your statement or transaction record, or if you need any information about a transaction listed on the statement or transaction record. We must hear from you no later than sixty (60) days after we have sent the first statement on which the problem or error appeared. (If you notify us verbally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing or electronically within ten (10) business days.) If you fail to notify us within the sixty (60) day period, you may not recover any of the money you lost if we can establish that the loss could have been avoided had you notified us on time. We may extend these time periods for good reasons such as out-of-town travel or extended hospital stays.
When you report a problem or discrepancy, please,
(i) tell us your name and account number;
(ii) describe the error or the transaction you are unsure about, and explain why you believe it is in error or what additional information you need;
(iii) tell us the dollar amount of any suspected error; and
(iv) for a bill payment, tell us the number of the account used to pay the bill, the applicable payee name and account number, the date the payment was sent, the payment amount and the payment reference number. Generally speaking, we will tell you the results of our investigation within ten (10) business days, or twenty (20) business days in the case of point of sale or international transactions, after we hear from you. However, we may take up to forty-five (45) days, or ninety (90) days in the case of point of sale or international transactions, to investigate your complaint or question. In this case, we may provisionally credit your account so that you have use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If you fail to provide your complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business days of a request from us to do so, we reserve the right to not credit your account. If we confirm an error, we will correct your account record within ten (10) business days, or twenty (20) business days in the case of point of sale or international transaction. If we determine that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation within three (3) business days after we conclude our investigation and will debit any interim amounts credited to your account. You may request copies of any documents that we use in our investigation.
Email
Sending Email is a very good way to communicate with Institution regarding your accounts or the Digital Financial Services. However, your email is sent via your own software and, as a result, is not secure. Because of this, you should not include confidential information, such as account numbers and balances, in any email to Institution. You cannot use email to initiate Digital Financial Service transactions. All such transactions must be initiated using the appropriate functions within Digital Banking. Institution will not be liable for any errors, omissions, claims, or problems of any kind involving your email.
Disclosure of Information

You also authorize us to reverse a transfer from the applicable Account if the debit is returned from the other Account in the transaction for any reason, including but not limited to nonsufficient funds.
c. We will use reasonable efforts to make all your transfers properly. However, we shall incur no liability if we are unable to complete any transfers initiated by you because of the existence of any one or more of the following circumstances:

2. The Account-to-Account Transfer Service is not working properly and you know or have been advised by us about the malfunction before you execute the transaction;
3. The transfer is refused as described in Section 10 (Refused Transfers) below;

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless us and our Affiliates and Service Providers and their Affiliates and the employees and contractors of each of these, from any loss, damage, claim or demand (including attorney’s fees) made or incurred by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of this Agreement and/or your use of the Site or the applicable Account to Account Transfer Service.

In addition, if applicable to you, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which states that a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if not known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.
39. No Waiver. We shall not be deemed to have waived any rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by one of our authorized representatives.
