The first time you
access your accounts through Internet Banking, you agree to be bound
by the terms and conditions of this Internet Banking Agreement
("Agreement") and acknowledge its receipt and your understanding of
its terms.
Introduction -
This Agreement explains the
terms and conditions for accessing accounts and conducting
transactions at Twin River National Bank ("Institution", "we", "us"
and "our") via our on-line Internet Banking site(s) ("Internet
Banking"). As used in this Agreement, the terms "you" and "your"
refer to each person signing an Internet Banking Application.
Benefits of
Internet Banking - Through Internet Banking, you can
manage eligible accounts from your home or office on a personal
computer. Internet Banking can be used to conduct any of the
following "On-line Financial Services":
Obtain balances and
transaction histories on all eligible accounts enrolled in Internet
Banking (All account balances and transaction histories reflect
activity through the close of the previous banking day);
Transfer money
between eligible accounts (The number of transfers you can make from
account is limited as described in the applicable account agreement.
In addition, if a hold is placed on any funds deposited in an
eligible account, you may not transfer the portion of funds being
held until that hold expires); transfer money to pay Institution for
overdraft protection, consumer loans, home equity loans, or certain
other eligible loans; and pay bills to any merchant, financial
institution or an individual with a U.S. address.
Institution may,
from time to time, introduce new On-line Financial Services. By
using those services when they become available, you agree to be
bound by the terms contained in this Agreement, and its subsequent
amendments.
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 Internet
Banking service, including the following:
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 Internet Banking or On-line Financial
Services. You may not gain, or attempt to gain, access to any
Internet Banking and/or On-line 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 Internet Banking.
Institution does not provide the service directly. Instead, you
entered into an agreement with a bill payment provider to provide
the bill payment services to 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 or a money market 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. 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
the 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.
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.
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 prohibit 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 Internet Banking or On-line 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 Internet Banking or On-line Financial
Services; (ix) you knew that Internet Banking and/or the On-line
Financial Services were not operating properly at the time you
initiated the transaction or payment; (xi) 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 fees
and charges for use of the On-line Financial Services described in
this Agreement. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all fees
shall be deducted automatically on a monthly basis 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 On-line Financial Services. Additionally, if you close
all Institution accounts, you must notify Institution and cease all
use of the On-line Financial Services. If fees cannot be collected
from any of your accounts, Institution may cancel all or some of
your On-line Financial Services. After cancellation, Institution may
reinstate some or all of the On-line 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 On-line Financial Services.
Unauthorized Transactions -
You should notify us
immediately if you believe anyone has improperly obtained your PIN
or if you suspect any fraudulent activity in your account(s). If
your PIN 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; and (iii) tell us the dollar amount of any
suspected error. 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.
Electronic Mail (E-mail)
- Sending E-mail is a very
good way to communicate with Institution regarding your accounts or
the On-line Financial Services. However, your e-mail is actually
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 e-mail to Institution. You
cannot use e-mail to initiate On-line Financial Service
transactions. All such transactions must be initiated using the
appropriate functions within the Internet Banking site. Institution
will not be liable for any errors, omissions, claims, or problems of
any kind involving your e-mail.
