The following information represents the Online Banking Agreement (Agreement between you and Junction National Bank) and states the terms and conditions applicable to using the Online Banking Services.
When you access or permit any other person to access the Online Banking Services offered by JNB you agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. This Agreement is in addition to any other agreements which may apply to the account(s) you may have with JNB. Please read this entire document before using the Online Banking Services. As used in this Agreement, the words "we", "our" and "us" mean the financial institution and any agent JNB may at its sole discretion, involve in the provision of Online Services, and the words "you" and "your" mean the account holder(s) and anyone with the authority to deposit, withdraw, access Online Services, or exercise control over the funds in the account. (1) Security of our customers' account information is a priority that JNB is committed to. JNB has used state of the art technology in the development of this site to facilitate this security. In order to access the Online Banking Services offered by JNB, a customer must currently have an account with JNB. Customers are then required to enter a Customer Access Number, a User Name, and a Password in order to access their information, in addition to using a secure Internet browser. If you do not currently have an account with JNB and would like to open an account or learn more about other products and services, please visit our home page. Please observe the following guidelines to protect against fraud:
-
Do not give out your account information, Customer Access Number, User Name, or Password.
-
Never leave your account information out in an open area (including your PC screen) where it could be accessible to others.
-
Never send privileged account information (account number, Password, etc.) via any public or general E-mail system.
-
Never leave your PC unattended while you are within the Online Services.
-
Under no circumstances will a JNB employee ever request your Password via the Internet or any other type of contact. Do not respond to such a request even if the individual claims to represent JNB.
In order to maintain secure communications and reduce fraud, you agree to protect the security of your numbers, codes, marks, signs, public keys or other means of identification. We reserve the right to block access to the Online Services to maintain or restore security to our Site and systems if we reasonably believe your access codes have been or may be obtained or are being used or may be used by an unauthorized person(s). (2) Virus Protection - JNB is not responsible for any electronic virus or viruses that your computer may encounter at our site. We suggest that you routinely scan your storage media using a reliable virus product to detect and remove any viruses found. (3) E-Mail - You may contact us using a general or public E-mail with questions pertaining to maintenance and/or problem resolution issues. Please do not send or request sensitive information such as account numbers, password, financial information, etc. via any general or public E-mail system. E-Mail is not a secure method of communication over the Internet and we recommend you do not send confidential information by e-mail. (4) Service Charges or Fees - Once you are an enrolled user of the Services, you may be charged the applicable Monthly Fee and/or Usage Fee whether or not you use the Services. See the "Schedule of Fees and Charges". You authorize us to automatically deduct all applicable charges and fees from your primary eligible checking account you have with us. (5) Reporting Unauthorized Transactions - If you believe that an unauthorized transaction has been or may be conducted from your deposit account without your permission, please contact us immediately. (6) Business Days and Hours of Operation - Our business days are Monday through Friday except for Federal Bank Holidays. You can access your account(s) using the Online Services 24 hours a day seven days a week, except during any special maintenance periods. (7) Your Responsibility - You are responsible for all transfers you authorize using the Online Services. If you permit other persons to use the Online Services or your Access Codes, you are responsible for any transactions they authorize from your linked deposit accounts. You should notify us immediately if you believe any of your accounts have been accessed or your Access Codes have been taken or used without your permission. Telephoning us right away can help you reduce possible losses. To the extent, a transaction is an electronic fund transfer you can lose no more than $50 if you notify us within two business days of discovering any unauthorized use of the Online Services or your Access Codes. However, you can lose as much as $500 if you do not notify us within two business days of discovering the unauthorized use and we can prove that we could have prevented the unauthorized use had we been notified. Further, if you do not report unauthorized transactions that appear on any of your periodic statements within 60 days and after such statements are mailed or electronically transmitted to you, you risk unlimited losses on transactions made after the 60-day period if we can prove we could have prevented the unauthorized use had we been notified within this 60 day period. If a good reason (e.g., a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from letting us know, we will consider extending the time periods. (8) Our Responsibility - We, or a third party acting as our agent, are responsible for completing fund transfers on time according to your properly entered and transmitted instructions. However, neither we nor the Service Provider will be liable:
-
If you do not have adequate money in a deposit account to complete a transaction from the account, or if that account has been closed.
-
If you have not properly followed Software or service instructions on how to make a transfer.
-
If you have not given complete, correct and current instructions so that a transfer can be made.
-
If withdrawals from an Eligible account have been prohibited by a court-ordered garnishment or another legal process.
-
If we or our agent reasonably believe that a transaction may be unauthorized and based thereon the transaction is not completed.
-
If your Equipment and/or the Software were not working properly and this problem should have been apparent to you when you attempted to authorize a transfer or bill payment.
-
If circumstances beyond our or our agent's control prevent making a transfer or payment despite reasonable precautions that we have taken. Such circumstances include, but are not limited to, computer failure, telecommunication outages postal strikes and other unrest, delays caused by fire, floods, and other natural disasters.
There may be other exceptions to our liability as stated in your Depository Agreement. (9) Electronic Fund Transfer Error Resolution - In case of errors or questions about payment service transactions or other electronic transfers initiated from your deposit account(s) under the Online Services, contact us immediately.

To report an error you must provide us with the following information:
-
Tell us your name and account number(s).

Describe the suspected error or the nature of the problem, or describe what information you need.
-
Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question within 10 business days. We will tell you the results of our investigation within 10 business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question, in which case, we will credit your account within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account during the investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation within 3 business days after we finish our investigation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
