We require that all visitors to our Site adhere to these Terms while using the Site. By accessing or using the Site you agree and acknowledge that you are bound by the Terms. Please read them carefully before accessing or using the Site and keep a copy of them for your reference. If you do not agree with these Terms then you should not access or use the Site, or any webpages therein.

Website Content
The materials and information posted on this Site are provided by the Bank as a service to its customers and may be used for informational purposes only. We do not assume any liability for the accuracy or completeness of information presented on our Site. While we will make all reasonable efforts to provide accurate information on our Site, there is no guarantee or warranty of accuracy. Use of the content posted on our Site is at your own risk.
Nothing contained on the Site or any page of the Site takes precedence over the Bank's agreements and disclosures that govern the banking and other financial products and services the Bank offers (such as deposit accounts or the Bank’s various lending products) (the “Financial Services”). While these Terms govern your use of the Site, separate agreements and disclosures govern the Financial Services offered by the Bank. You agree that these Terms shall only govern your use of the Site and not Financial Services. If any information on this Site or these Terms conflicts with the bank's agreements and disclosures which govern Financial Services, the agreements and disclosures applicable to Financial Services will govern.
We reserve the right to change the content and any and all information on the Site at our discretion, and at any time, without notice. Changes may include revisions to promotional offers and campaigns, including termination of the same. Bank will not be liable if for any reason all or any part of the Site is unavailable at any time or for any period of time. Bank also reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time without notice. Changes to these Terms will be effective when updated versions are posted to the Site. You agree to be bound by the terms and provisions contained in the most recent version of these Terms posted to the Site.
Without limiting the foregoing, we reserve the right, but shall have no obligation, to reject, move, or delete content that we, in our sole discretion, believe may interfere with the operation of the Site or which otherwise violates these Terms, including but not limited to, content which contains viruses. We may, but have no obligation to, monitor, and/or retain copies indefinitely of, uploaded content, message boards, chat rooms or other forums on the Site where information is communicated or posted by you or the Bank or review content, or messages posted on the Site (to the extent applicable), to confirm their compliance with these Terms.

Privacy
Your use of the Site is also subject to the Bank’s Online Privacy Policy. Please review our Online Privacy Policy for more information regarding our use of information collected through the Site and the Bank’s data collection practices.

Login Security
The Site includes certain webpages or systems that may allow users to apply for Financial Services with the Bank online and to communicate and share information directly with the Bank and Bank personnel (the “Interactive Services”). You may be required to create login credentials and provide security information to the Bank to access the Interactive Services, such as a username, password, first and last name, an email address, mobile phone number and/or other security information used to verify your identity (collectively, “Credentials”). In instances where you are required to create Credentials to access Interactive Services, the following terms and conditions will apply. Upon creation of Credentials, you must treat such Credentials as confidential and agree not disclose them to any other person or entity and to take other reasonable precautions to ensure the safety, security and integrity of the Credentials. NOTE: Some browser software may store Credentials to facilitate the future use of a web site. For security reasons, you agree to disable this feature in your browser. Check your browser’s “Help” screen for more information on this feature. You also agree not to provide any other person with access to the Interactive Services using your Credentials. You assume all risks and losses associated with your Credentials. If you believe there was any unauthorized access to, use of or attempted access to or use of your Credentials or any other breach of security, you should notify the Bank and must immediately reset and update your Credentials. For security reasons we may disable your Credentials, for example if they are entered incorrectly several times. We have the right to disable any Credentials at any time and without prior notice to you.
Any transactions or communications resulting from your instructions in an Interactive Service which we receive in your name and under your Credentials shall be deemed to have been “a writing” and authenticated by you “in writing” for purposes of any law in which a writing or written signature is needed or required. All records maintained by us of transactions under your Credentials shall be deemed to have been “signed” and to constitute an “original” when printed from records established and maintained by us or our authorized agent in the normal course of business.
