V 9.23

Contents

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 complexity 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 4:00 p.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 t ime 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.

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.

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.

  • as described in our privacy policy disclosure, provided separately.

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.
