Privacy and Internet Security (a) Privacy We understand how important privacy is to our customers/members. We have taken steps to protect the privacy and security of your personal information as well as your financial transactions with us. You should read our privacy notice before completing the enrollment process for the Service. Privacy Policy The Service utilizes a comprehensive security strategy to protect your accounts and transactions conducted over the Internet. Prior to activating your access to the Service, our Internet Banking department will verify your identity and authorization against information associated with the Eligible account(s) that you request to be tied to the service. Access IDs and Passcodes - One of the main security features protecting the Service is the unique combination of your Access Identification Code (Access ID) and Passcode. During the enrollment process, you will be asked to select a unique Access ID, and then choose a Passcode that will be used to gain access to the Service. You determine your own Passcode. Because your Passcode is used to access your accounts, you should treat it as you would any other sensitive personal data. You should carefully select a Passcode that is hard to guess. We encourage you to stay away from words based on your name, address or other personal information. Your Passcode must meet the following minimum requirements: · It must be at least seven (7) characters long. · It must contain at least 1 alpha and 1 numeric character. · It must not be based upon any personal information you have provided to us. Note: Special characters may be used to increase security. Do NOT use dictionary words. The “Help” link within the Service will offer tips on choosing a secure Passcode that you can remember. Keep your Passcode safe. Memorize your Passcode and do NOT write it down. You should also change your Passcode occasionally, such as every 90 days. A Passcode should be changed immediately if you suspect that your Passcode has been compromised. This can be done at any time from the “User Services” menu after you log on to the Service. We will not contact you via telephone or via email requesting your Access ID or Passcode. If you are contacted by anyone requesting this information, please contact us immediately. If you disclose or do not properly protect your passcode, and/or if you allow someone to use your passcode to access your accounts, you are authorizing them to act on your behalf and you will be responsible for any use of the system by them (e.g. such as when you provide this information to a joint account holder, spouse, and/or an aggregation service provider). Log-On Security – For your protection, you should sign-off after every Internet banking session. However, in order to help prevent unauthorized access to your account(s) your online session will end automatically if we detect no activity for 10 minutes. This is to protect you in case you accidentally leave your computer unattended after you logged on. When you return to your computer, you will be prompted to re-enter your Passcode, and your session will continue where you left off. In addition, we will lockout your account after three unsuccessful logon attempts within a 24-hour time frame. Encryption – The Service uses the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology for everything you do while using Internet banking. Your browser automatically activates this technology when it attempts to connect to our Service. Our Service requires a browser that supports 128-bit encryption. Whenever SSL is securing your communications, the browser will typically indicate this secure session by changing the appearance of a small icon of a padlock at the bottom of the screen from open to locked. What this means to you is that your communications are scrambled from your browser to our servers at all times so no unauthorized party can read the information as it is carried over the Internet. Certificate Authority - The servers hosting our Service have been certified by a "Certificate Authority" to assure you that you are actually talking to our Service instead of someone pretending to be us. If you are using an older browser, such as anything prior to versions 4.0 on Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer, you will see that the "Certificate Authorities" key may have expired; you will need to update it on your browser. Instructions for upgrading your browser are located on the Browser SSL Update link, which is located on the Service login page. Cookies - During your use of the Service, our Internet banking Service Provider will pass an encrypted cookie to your computer in order to identify your computer during the session. This cookie enables us to process multiple transactions during the session without having to provide an Access ID and Passcode for each individual transaction. Users must accept this cookie to use our Internet banking product. This cookie does not contain any personal information; it simply provides another level of security for our Internet banking product. The cookie is stored on your computer’s hard-drive, identifying your computer while you are logged on. When you log off, close your browser, or turn off your machine, the cookie will be destroyed. A new cookie is used for each session; thus, no one can use the prior cookie to access your account. Use of Public Computers –– The security of public computers (e.g. in a Library, or Internet café) cannot be assured; therefore we strongly recommend that our customers refrain from accessing online accounts on a public computer. In addition to the security features described above, there may be other security related notices posted on our website or Service from time to time. It is your responsibility to read all security notices. Notwithstanding our efforts to ensure that the Service is secure, we cannot and do not warrant that all data transfers via the Service will be free from monitoring or access by others. When you accept the terms and conditions of this Agreement below, you agree to 1. Keep your Passcode secure and strictly confidential, providing it only to authorized signers on your eligible account(s). 2. Immediately notify us and select a new passcode if you believe your passcode may have become known to an unauthorized person. 304-369-2407, Internet banking customer service department. 3. You also understand that you are responsible for all transactions you authorize using the Service. If you permit other persons to use the Service or your Passcode, you are responsible for any transactions they authorize. 17. Alterations and Amendments This Agreement, applicable fees and service charges may be altered or amended from time-to-time. In such event, we will provide notice to you. Further, we may, from time-to-time, revise or update the applications, Service features, and/or related material, which may render all such prior versions obsolete. Consequently, we reserve the right to terminate this Agreement as to all such prior versions of the applications, services, and/or related material and limit access to only the Service's more recent revisions and updates. Also, if a change in term(s) or condition(s) is necessary to maintain or restore the security of our system or your account(s), no advance notice is required. Upon notification of any change in terms, if you do not agree with the change(s), you must notify us in writing or via email to cancel your access to the Service. Any use of the Service after we provide you a notice of change will constitute your agreement to such change(s). 18.
