This is your Electronic Banking Agreement with The Napoleon State Bank. The Napoleon State Bank’s Electronic Banking Services can be used to check balances, transfer money between your accounts, make loan payments, view account statements, have access to financial calculators, pay bills, and deposit checks with the mobile app in accordance with this agreement. The terms and conditions of this agreement are in addition to the Account agreements, disclosures, and other documents governing your Account. Please read it carefully and keep a copy for your records.

“You”, “your”, or “User” means each person who is authorized to use the service. “Financial Institution”, "bank", "us", "our", or "we" refers to The Napoleon State Bank from here on out. “Service(s)” refers to any of the Electronic Banking products described in this agreement. "Payee" means anyone, including the Financial Institution, you designate, and the Financial Institution accepts as a payee. “Transaction” means any transfer, bill payment, or check deposit made via The Napoleon State Bank’s Electronic Banking Services.

I. Acceptance of these Terms

Your use of the Services constitutes your acceptance of this Agreement. This Agreement is subject to change at any time as described in the section “Amendment and Termination” below. Your continued use of the Services will indicate your consent to be bound by the revised Agreement. Further, The Napoleon State Bank reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions from the Services. Your continued use of the Services will indicate your acceptance of any such changes to the Services.

II. Internet Banking

  1. Accessing the service. When you complete your Electronic Banking enrollment form, you will create a User ID and a password. These credentials must meet certain complex requirements in order to ensure the security of your financial information. Each time you access the Service, you will be required to enter these credentials. Only correct responses will give you access to the Service. Once enrolled, users will be able to access the Service via web browser through www.napoleonstatebank.com, www.napoleonstatebank.mobi, NSBmobile iOS app, and/or NSBmobile Android app.

  2. Internet Security Information. The Napoleon State Bank’s Electronic Banking service is part of Precision Computer Systems (PCS) that utilizes a comprehensive security strategy to protect your accounts and transactions conducted over the internet. The browser will indicate the “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.

    Security is very important to the Electronic Banking system. At the time you request the service; you will select a unique “Login ID” and then choose a “password” that will be used to gain access to the system. Prior to activation, the Electronic Banking Department will verify your identity and authorization to information associated with the accounts that you requested tied to the service. To help prevent unauthorized access and ensure the security of your accounts, we will terminate your online session if we have detected 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 login ID and password. Any unsaved information will be lost at this time.

    Your login credentials (username, password, etc.) are used to access your accounts and services with The Napoleon State Bank. You must treat this information as you would other sensitive data. Memorize your login credentials and never share them with anyone. Your password and other security features can be changed through the “services” menu in Internet Banking.

  3. Determining the Availability of Funds. For determining the availability of funds, every day is a business day, except Saturday, Sundays, and federal holidays. If you make a transaction before 4:00p.m. EST on a business day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of your transaction. However, if you make a transaction after 4:00 p.m. EST (with exception to NSBmobile Deposit, see Section V.E.) or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the transaction was made on the next business day we are open.

  4. Minimum Balance to Avoid a Fee. There is a minimum balance on your account if you have Super Now account or a Money Market Demand Account. A Super Now account is subject to a $10.00 service fee for each month that your balance falls below the average daily balance of $1,000.00. A Money Market Account is subject to a $10.00 service fee for each month that your balance falls below the average daily balance of $2,500.00. The average daily balance is calculated by adding the balance in the account for each day of the period and dividing that figure by the number of days in the period.

  5. Balance Inquiries, Bill Payments, and Transfer Limitations. You may use Electronic Banking to check the balance of your accounts and to transfer funds among your accounts. According to Federal regulations, the following limitations also apply to your Money Market accounts: During any calendar month or statement cycle of at least four weeks, you may not make more than six withdrawals or transfers to another account of yours or to a third party by means of a check, draft, debit card, preauthorized or automatic transfer, telephone order, or similar order to a third party. If you exceed the transfer limitations set forth above in any statement period, your account will be subject to closure or accessed a fee by the Financial Institution.

    There are no limits to the number of transfers or bill payments from your checking accounts. The Napoleon State bank currently limits NSB Bill Pay service to only Checking, Super Now, and Money Market Accounts.

    Balances shown in your accounts may include deposits subject to verification by us. The balance may also differ from your records due to deposits in progress, outstanding checks or other withdrawals, payments, or charges. A transfer request may not result in immediate availability because of the time required to process the request. If you have further questions, contact your Electronic Banking Department.

    The balances are updated periodically and the system will display the most current “as of” date on the “accounts” summary page. There may be situations that cause a delay in an update of your balances. The system will use the most current balance available at the time of a transaction to base our approval.

  6. Special Information about Stop Payment, Check Re-orders, Order Documents, Secure E-mail, and Secure File Delivery Services. The system includes several options under the “service” menu that provide a means to securely forward your request to us for processing. Generally, requests received from the system will be processed within one business day using procedures that would handle similar requests received by mail or fax. If urgent action is required, we recommend that you contact The Napoleon State Bank directly by telephone or in person. Additional terms of acceptance or disclosures may apply on the Stop Payment service and these terms will be disclosed at the time you complete the request. The Stop Payment feature is designed to submit a request to stop payment on checks you have written.

III. Bill Pay

  1. Payees. You may add a new fixed payment to a Payee, only if the Payee is on your authorized list of payees, and by accessing the Service and entering the appropriate information. Most other additions, deletions, or changes can be made in writing or by using the Service. The Financial Institution reserves the right to refuse the designation of a Payee for any reason. Each Payee accepted by the Financial Institution will be assigned a payee code. You may pay any payee you wish in the US. The Financial Institution is not responsible if a Bill Payment cannot be made due to incomplete, incorrect, or outdated information provided by you regarding a Payee or if you attempt to pay a Payee that is not on your Authorized Payee list.

  2. Single Payments. A single payment will be processed on the business day (generally Monday through Friday, except certain holidays) that you designate as the payment’s process date, provided the payment is submitted prior to the daily cut-off time on that date. The daily cut-off time, which is controlled by the financial institution, is currently 9:00 PM EST. A single payment submitted after the cut-off time on the designated process date will be processed on the following business day. If you designate a non-business date (generally weekends and certain holidays) as the payment’s process date, the payment will be processed on the first business day following the designated process date.

  3. Recurring Payments. When a recurring payment is processed, it is automatically rescheduled by the system. Based upon your selected frequency settings for the payment, a process date is calculated for the next occurrence of the payment. If the calculated process date is a non-business date (generally weekends and certain holidays), it is adjusted based upon the following rules:

    1. If the recurring payment’s “Pay Backward” option is selected, the process date for the new occurrence of the payment is adjusted to the first business date prior to the calculated process date.

    2. If the recurring payment’s “Pay Backward” option is not selected (or if the “Pay Backward” option is not available), the process date for the new occurrence of the payment is adjusted to the first business date after the calculated process date.

    Note: If your frequency settings for the recurring payment specify the 29th, 30th, or 31st as a particular day of the month for processing and that day does not exist in the month of the calculated process date, then the last calendar day of that month is used as the calculated process date.

    For Single and Recurring Payments, YOU MUST ALLOW AT LEAST FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS, PRIOR TO THE DUE DATE, for each bill payment to reach the Payee. (For mid-west subscribers, allow 7 days and for west coast subscribers, allow 8 days.) Any bill payment can be changed or canceled, provided you access the Bill Pay Service prior to the cut-off time on the business day prior to the business day the bill payment is going to be initiated. You agree to have available and collected funds on deposit in the account you designate in amounts sufficient to pay for all bill payments requested, as well as, any other payment obligations you have to the Financial Institution. The Financial Institution reserves the right, without liability, to reject or reverse a bill payment if you fail to comply with this requirement or any other terms of this agreement. If you do not have sufficient funds in the Account and the Financial Institution has not exercised its right to reverse or reject a bill payment, you agree to pay for such payment obligations on demand. You further agree the Financial Institution, at its option, may charge any of your accounts with the Financial Institution to cover such payment obligations. An overdraft fee of $30 or a $30 return check fee could be imposed per occurrence. The financial institution reserves the right to change the cut-off time. You will receive notice if it changes.

V. NSBmobile Deposit

  2. Eligible items. You agree to scan and deposit only "checks" as that term is defined in Federal Reserve Regulation CC ("Reg. CC"). When the image of the check is transmitted to The Financial Institution is converted to an image for subsequent presentment and collection, it shall thereafter be deemed an "item" within the meaning of Articles 3 and 4 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

    You agree that you will not scan and deposit any of the following types of checks or other items which shall be considered ineligible items:

    • Checks payable to any person or entity other than the person or entity that owns the account that the check is being deposited into.
    • Checks containing an alteration on the front of the check or item, or which you know or suspect, or should know or suspect, are fraudulent or otherwise not authorized by the owner of the account on which the check is drawn.
    • Checks payable jointly, unless deposited into an account in the name of all payees.
    • Checks previously converted to a substitute check, as defined in Reg. CC.
    • Checks drawn on a financial institution located outside the United States.
    • Checks that are remotely created checks, as defined in Reg. CC.

  4. Receipt of Items. We reserve the right to reject any item transmitted through the Services, at our discretion. We are not responsible for items we do not receive or for images that are dropped during transmission. An image of an item shall be deemed received when you receive a confirmation from The Financial Institution that we have received the image. Receipt of such confirmation does not mean that the transmission was error free, complete or will be considered a deposit  and credited to your account. We further reserve the right to charge back to your account at any time, any item that we subsequently determine was not an eligible item. You agree that the Bank is not liable for any loss, costs, or fees you may incur as a result of our chargeback of an ineligible item.

Deposits made prior to 8:00 p.m. (EST) on a business day will generally be available the same day and subject to the Funds Availability disclosure provided during account opening. Deposits made after 8:00p.m. (EST) will be available the next business day. Saturday, Sunday and Federal Holidays are not considered “business days”.

  6. Disposal of Transmitted Items. Upon your receipt of a confirmation from The Financial Institution that we have received an image that you have transmitted, you agree to prominently mark the item as "Electronically Presented", "VOID", or otherwise render it incapable of further transmission, deposit, or presentment. You agree never to re-present the item. You agree to retain the check for at least 30 calendar days from the date of the image transmission. After 30 days, you agree to destroy the check that you transmitted.

  7. Deposit Limits. We reserve the right to and may establish limits on the dollar amount and/or number of items or deposits from time to time. If you attempt to initiate a deposit in excess of these limits, we may reject your deposit. If we permit you to make a deposit in excess of these limits, such deposit will still be subject to the terms of this Agreement, and we will not be obligated to allow such a deposit at other times.

  8. Presentment. The manner in which the items are cleared, presented for payment, and collected shall be in The Financial Institution's sole discretion subject to the agreements governing your account.

  9. Errors. You agree to notify The Financial Institution of any suspected errors regarding items deposited through the Services immediately, and in no event later than 30 days after the applicable The Financial Institution account statement is sent.

  10. Errors in Transmission. By using the Services you accept the risk that an item may be intercepted or misdirected during transmission. The Financial Institution bears no liability to you or others for any such intercepted or misdirected items or information disclosed through such errors.

  11. Image Quality. The image of an item transmitted to The Financial Institution using the Services must be legible, as determined in the sole discretion of The Financial Institution. Without limiting the foregoing, the image quality of the items must comply with the requirements established from time to time by The Financial Institution, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Board, or any other regulatory agency, clearinghouse or association.

VI. Hardware and Software

In order to use the Services, you must obtain and maintain, at your expense, compatible hardware and software as specified by The Financial Institution.

The Financial Institution is not responsible for any third-party software you may need to use the Services. Any such software is accepted by you as is and is subject to the terms and conditions of the software agreement you enter into directly with the third party software provider at time of download and installation.

VII. Liability

You are solely responsible for controlling the safekeeping of and access to, your login credentials. You will be responsible for any transaction request you make that contains an error or is a duplicate of another transaction. The Financial Institution is not responsible for a transaction that is not made if you did not properly follow the instructions for making the transaction. The Financial Institution is not liable for any failed transaction if you do not promptly notify the Financial Institution after you learn that you have not received credit. The Financial Institution is not responsible for your acts or omissions or those of any other person, including, without limitation, any transmission or communications facility, and no such party shall be deemed to the Financial Institution’s agent. In any event, the Financial Institution will not be liable for an y special, consequential, incidental, punitive losses, damages, or expenses in connection with this Agreement or the Service, even if the Financial Institution has knowledge of the possibility of them. The Financial Institution is not liable for any act, failure to act, or delay in acting if it is caused, in whole or in part, by any cause out of the Financial Institution’s reasonable control.

Liability for failure to make transfers: If we do not complete a transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:

  • If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
  • If you have an overdraft line and the transfer would go over the credit limit.
  • If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
  • There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.

VIII. Malware Protection

The Financial Institution is not responsible for any electronic viruses, spyware, or other malware that you may encounter. We encourage our customers to routinely scan their PC using a reliable anti- malware/anti-virus product and resolve any discovered issues.

Undetected or non-repaired viruses may corrupt and destroy your programs, files and even your hardware. Additionally, you may unintentionally transmit the virus to other computers. Spyware refers to technologies that collect information about a user without his or her knowledge and reports that information to a third party. Certain forms of spyware can intercept sensitive and confidential information about an organization or user, including passwords, credit card numbers and other identifying data.

It is important that customers do not access their online account information from a public computer – such as those in hotels and libraries because of the uncertainty of what malware may already exist on public equipment.

IX. Confidentiality and Privacy

We will disclose information to third parties about your account and/or your electronic banking activities:

  • where it is necessary for completing transfers; or
  • in order to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant; or
  • in order to comply with government agency or court orders; or
  • as described in our privacy policy disclosure, provided separately.
     

X. Amendment and Termination

The Financial Institution has the right to change this Agreement at any time by notice mailed to you at the last address shown for the account on the Financial Institution’s records, by posting notice in branches of the Financial Institution, by posting changes on the Internet Banking site, or as otherwise permitted by law.

The Financial Institution has the right to terminate this Agreement at any time. The Financial Institution is not responsible for any fixed payment made before the Financial Institution has a reasonable opportunity to act on your termination notice. You remain obligated for any transactions made by the Financial Institution on your behalf.

Your Electronic Banking Services may be cancelled at any time by the Financial Institution in whole or part without prior notice due to insufficient funds in one of your accounts or other circumstances that may create an unanticipated liability to us. Your Internet Banking may also be cancelled for inactivity in a consecutive 180-day period. You will remain responsible for all transactions approved by the system prior to the cancellation, and for any other fees associated with the service. After cancellation, service may be reinstated once sufficient funds are available in your accounts to cover any fees or other pending transfers or debits. In order to reinstate services, you must fill out a new enrollment form or contact the Internet Banking Department.

You may terminate this Agreement by contacting the Financial Institution in writing, by mail, email, or personal delivery to the Financial Institution. If your account is closed or restricted for any reason, Internet Banking accessibility will automatically terminate.

XI. Fees

Please visit https://www.napoleonstatebank.com/personal-banking/additional-services/cost-of-services/ for a list of fees.

The Financial Institution reserves the right to charge you for research time involving transactions or account history. You will be informed of any such charges before they are incurred. The Financial Institution may change the fees for use of the Services at any time pursuant to the section titled "Amendment and Termination" above.

Bill payments are processed by Electronic Fund Transfers (EFT). Please see the Electronic Fund Transfers Disclosure Statement included, or, received when you opened your account, which discloses important information concerning your rights and obligations.

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.

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 317-27 at anytime.  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 Napoleon State Bank provides alerts as a convenience to you for information purposes only.

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 Napoleon State Banks’s control. We neither guarantee the delivery nor the accuracy of the contents of each Alert. You agree to not hold The Napoleon State 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.

When we receive a Transfer Instruction from you, you authorize us to (i) debit your Eligible Transaction Account and remit funds on your behalf to the External Account designated by you and to debit your applicable Account as described below in Section 9 (Account to Account Transfer Service Fees and Additional Charges); or, as applicable, to (ii) credit your Eligible Transaction Account and remit funds on your behalf from the External Account designated by you and to debit your applicable Account as described below in Section 9 (Account to Account Transfer Service Fees and Additional Charges). 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. Transfers may be delayed or blocked to prevent fraud or comply with regulatory requirements. If we delay or block a Transfer Instruction that you have initiated, we will notify you in accordance with your user preferences (i.e., email, push notification).
  • We will use reasonable efforts to complete all your Transfer Instructions 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:
    1. If, through no fault of ours, the Eligible Transaction Account or External Account does not contain sufficient funds to complete the Transfer Instruction or the Transfer Instruction would exceed the credit limit of your overdraft account;
    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 Transfer Instruction;
    3. The transfer is refused as described in Section 10 (Refused Transfers) below;
    4. You have not provided us with the correct information, including but not limited to the correct Eligible Transaction Account or External Account information; and/or,
    5. Circumstances beyond our control (such as, but not limited to, fire, flood, network or system down time, issues with the financial institution, or interference from an outside force) prevent the proper execution of the Transfer Instruction.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure the accuracy of any information that you enter into the Account to Account Transfer Service, and for informing us as soon as possible if you become aware that this information is inaccurate. You may not use a P.O. Box as a postal address. We will make a reasonable effort to stop or recover a transfer made to the wrong Account once informed, but we do not guarantee such stoppage or recovery and will bear no responsibility or liability for damages resulting from incorrect information entered by you.
  • Instant Transfers. The Instant Transfers feature allows for transfers to and from External Accounts that are enabled through a Payment Network designed to deliver transfers on the same day and potentially within minutes, although actual speed will vary, as described below. Instant Transfers are not instantaneous. Delivery speed may vary based upon the fraud, risk and other funds availability policy of the applicable External Account financial institution and Payment Network availability. We are not responsible for the performance, speed, or other acts or omissions of the Payment Networks or other financial institutions that may be involved in the transmission of a transfer. We shall not be obligated to comply with the Automated Clearinghouse (ACH) Rules in such recovery efforts or otherwise in connection with Instant Transfers unless the applicable transaction is transmitted through the ACH network. We are only responsible for delivery of the applicable Transfer Instructions to the applicable Payment Network in the format required by the applicable Payment Network's specifications.

Transfer Methods and Amounts. There are limits on the amount of money you can send or receive through our Account to Account Transfer Service. Your limits may be adjusted from time-to-time in our sole discretion. You may have the ability to log in to the Site to view your individual transaction limits. We or our Service Provider also reserve the right to select the method in which to remit funds on your behalf through the Account to Account Transfer Service, and in the event that your Eligible Transaction Account is closed or otherwise unavailable to us, the method to return funds to you.

Transfer Cancellation Requests. You may cancel a transfer at any time until it begins processing (as shown in the Account to Account Transfer Service). Instant Transfers may not be cancelled as the Transfer Instructions will be processed immediately.

Stop Transfer Requests. If you desire to stop any transfer that has already begun processing, you must contact customer care for the Account to Account Transfer Service pursuant to Section 26 (Errors, Questions, and Complaints). Although we will make a reasonable effort to accommodate your request, we will have no liability for failing to do so. We may also require you to present your request in writing within fourteen (14) days. The charge for each request will be the current charge for such service as set out in the applicable fee schedule.

Account to Account Transfer Service Fees and Additional Charges. You are responsible for paying all fees associated with your use of the Account to Account Transfer Service. Applicable fees will be disclosed in the user interface for, or elsewhere within, the Account to Account Transfer Service or Site. Any applicable fees will be charged regardless of whether the Account to Account Transfer Service was used, except for fees that are specifically use-based. Use-based fees for the Account to Account Transfer Service will be charged against the Account that is debited for the funds transfer. There may also be charges for additional transactions and other optional services. Additional fees may apply for Instant Transfers and Businesses enrolled in the Small Business Transfers Service. You agree to pay such charges and authorize us to deduct the calculated amount from the applicable Eligible Transaction Account you hold with us or the Account that is debited for the funds transfer, depending on how such charges are described in the user interface for the Account to Account Transfer Service. Any financial fees associated with your standard deposit accounts will continue to apply. You are responsible for any and all telephone access fees and Internet service fees that may be assessed by your telephone and Internet service provider. Section 22 (Failed Or Returned Transfer Instructions) applies if you do not pay our fees and charges for the Account to Account Transfer Service, including without limitation if we debit the External Account for such fees, as described in this Section, and there are insufficient funds in the External Account; Section 22 (Failed Or Returned Transfer Instructions) should be interpreted as applying to the External Account, not just the Eligible Transaction Account, in such circumstances.

Refused Transfers. We reserve the right to refuse any transfer. As required by applicable law, we will notify you promptly if we decide to refuse to transfer funds.

Returned or Failed Transfers. In using the Account to Account Transfer Service, you understand transfers may be returned or fail for various reasons such as, but not limited to, the External Account number is not valid. We will use reasonable efforts to research and correct the transfer to the intended Account or void the transfer. We will, to the extent permitted by law, make reasonable attempts to return any unclaimed, refused, refunded, prohibited, failed, or denied transfer to your Account that we debited for the funds transfer or use other reasonable efforts to return such transfer to you as permitted by law. In certain cases, we may require you to contact us or the financial institution for your External Account to initiate a request to receive such funds. You may receive notification from us.

Failed or Returned Transfer Instructions. In using the Account to Account Transfer Service, you are requesting that we or our Service Provider attempt to make transfers for you from your Eligible Transaction Account. If the Transfer Instruction cannot be completed for any reason associated with your Eligible Transaction Account (for example, there are insufficient funds in your Eligible Transaction Account, or the Transfer Instruction would exceed the credit or overdraft protection limit of your Eligible Transaction Account, to cover the transfer), the Transfer Instruction may or may not be completed. In certain circumstances, our Service Provider may either advance funds drawn on their corporate account or via an electronic debit, and in such circumstances will attempt to debit the Eligible Transaction Account a second time to complete the Transfer Instruction. In some instances, you will receive a return notice from us or our Service Provider. In each such case, you agree that:

  • You will reimburse us or our Service Provider immediately upon demand the amount of the Transfer Instruction if the transfer has been delivered but there are insufficient funds in, or insufficient overdraft credits associated with, your Eligible Transaction Account to allow the debit processing to be completed;
  • You may be assessed a late fee equal to one and a half percent (1.5%) of any unpaid amounts plus costs of collection by our Service Provider or their third-party contractor if the Transfer Instruction cannot be debited because you have insufficient funds in your Eligible Transaction Account, or the transaction would exceed the credit or overdraft protection limit of your Eligible Transaction Account, to cover the transfer, or if the funds cannot otherwise be collected from you. The aforesaid amounts will be charged in addition to any NSF charges that may be assessed by us, as set forth in your fee schedule from us (including as disclosed on the Site) or your account agreement with us.

Disputes. In the event of a dispute regarding the Account to Account Transfer Service, you and we agree to resolve the dispute by looking to this Agreement.

Arbitration. For any claim (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000.00 USD, the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost-effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. If a party elects arbitration, that party will initiate such arbitration through Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), or an established alternative dispute resolution (ADR) administrator mutually agreed upon by the parties. The parties agree that the following rules shall apply: (a) the arbitration may be conducted telephonically, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, at the election of the party initiating the arbitration; (b) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties, their representatives or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; (c) discovery shall not be permitted; (d) the matter shall be submitted for decision within ninety (90) days of initiation of arbitration, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, and the arbitrator must render a decision within thirty (30) days of submission; and (e) any award in such arbitration shall be final and binding upon the parties and may be submitted to any court of competent jurisdiction for confirmation. The parties acknowledge that remedies available under federal, state and local laws remain available through arbitration. NO CLASS ACTION, OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR JOINDER OR CONSOLIDATION OF ANY CLAIM WITH A CLAIM OF ANOTHER PERSON SHALL BE ALLOWABLE IN ARBITRATION.

Law and Forum for Disputes. Unless our account agreement with you states otherwise, this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State in which you reside, without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT CONFLICT WITH APPLICABLE STATE OR FEDERAL LAW, SUCH STATE OR FEDERAL LAW SHALL REPLACE SUCH CONFLICTING TERMS ONLY TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY LAW. UNLESS EXPRESSLY STATED OTHERWISE, ALL OTHER TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT. Unless our account agreement with you states otherwise, you agree that any claim or dispute you may have against us (other than those which are arbitrated under Section 35 (Arbitration)) must be resolved by a court located in the county in which you reside. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating all claims or disputes unless said claim is submitted to arbitration under Section 35 (Arbitration). The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this Agreement. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BOTH PARTIES AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN THE RESOLUTION OF ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN THE PARTIES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

Indemnification. 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.

Release. You release us and our Affiliates and Service Providers and the employees and contractors of each of these, from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature arising out of or in any way connected with any dispute that may arise between you or one or more other users of the Site or the 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.

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. No delay or omission on our part in exercising any rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies or any other rights or remedies. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar or waiver of any rights or remedies on future occasions.
