EFFECTIVE DATE OF NOTICE OF UNAUTHORIZED ACTIVITY Any notice from you is effective once we receive it and have a reasonable opportunity to act on it. PROVISIONAL PAYMENT DISCLOSURE Credit given by the Credit Union to you with respect to an automated clearing house credit entry is provisional until we receive final settlement for such entry. If we do not receive final settlement, we are entitled to charge your account for the amount of provisional credit and applicable returned item fees. NOTICE DISCLOSURE Under the operating rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association, which are applicable to ACH transactions involving your account, we are not required to give you next day notice to you of receipt of an ACH item, and we will not do so. However, we will continue to notify you of the receipt of payments in the periodic statements we provide you. CHANGE IN TERMS We may change the terms of the Electronic Fund Transfer Disclosure. If you have an account with us through which electronic transactions are being processed, you will receive written notice at least 21 days prior to the effective date of the change(s), or as otherwise provided by law. TERMINATION OF ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSACTION SERVICES Electronic services may be terminated if any of your Credit Union loans that you are primary, joint, borrower, or co-maker on, are in default. You may, by written request, terminate any of the electronic services provided for in this Disclosure. We may terminate your right to make electronic fund transactions at any time upon written notice, except where in our judgment, immediate termination without notice is necessary. If you ask us to terminate your account or the use of your Visa Debit Card, or any other access device or service, you will remain liable for prior authorized transactions performed on your account. ACTIONS TO PROTECT YOUR ACCOUNT PROTECTION OF CARD AND PIN You should securely protect your card and PIN from loss or theft. Each cardholder must have his or her own unique PIN for their card and is responsible for maintaining confidentiality of the PIN. Memorize the PIN, never write the PIN on the card or share it with anyone, including our employees. Never allow anyone else to use the card or PIN. If the card or PIN is given to another person, the account owner will be responsible for all transactions made by that person or anyone else to whom that person gives the card or PIN. Notify us immediately if the card is lost or stolen or is no longer secure. You should secure the mobile device the same as you would your cash, checks, credit cards, and other valuable information. We encourage you to password protect or lock your mobile device to help prevent an unautho- rized person from using it. It is your responsibility to protect the account numbers and electronic access devices (e.g., a debit card) we provide you for your account(s). You agree not to discuss, compare, or share information about your account number(s) with anyone unless you are willing to give them full use of your money. If you provide access to your device to another person (a family member or friend, for example) in connection with granting authority to that person to conduct funds transfers, and that person then exceeds that authority, you are liable for the transfers unless we have been notified that transfers by that person are no longer authorized allowing sufficient time prior to the transfers or transactions. Your account number can also be used to electronically withdraw money from your account. For example, if you provide your account number to an online merchant to purchase a service or merchandise, funds can be electronically withdrawn from your account. You must also take precaution in safeguarding your blank checks. Notify us immediately if you believe your checks have been lost or stolen. The following suggestions may be helpful. • Prepare for your transactions at home (for instance, by filling out a deposit slip) to minimize your time at the ATM or night deposit facility. • Mark each transaction in your account record, but not while at the ATM or night deposit facility. Always save your ATM receipts. Don’t leave them at the ATM or night deposit facility because they may contain important account information. • Compare your records with the account statements you receive. • Don’t lend your Visa® Debit card to anyone. • Remember, do not leave your card at the ATM. Do not leave any documents at a night deposit facility. • Protect the secrecy of your Personal Identification Number (PIN). Protect your Visa® Debit card as if it were cash. Don’t tell anyone your PIN. Don’t give anyone information regarding your Visa® Debit card or PIN over the telephone. Never enter your PIN in any ATM that does not look genuine, has been modified, has a suspicious device attached or is operating in a suspicious manner. Don’t write your PIN where it can be discovered. For example, don’t keep a note of your PIN in your wallet or purse. • Prevent others from seeing you enter your PIN by using your body to shield their view. • If you lose your Visa® Debit card or if it is stolen, promptly notify us. You should consult the other disclosures you have received about electronic fund transfers for additional information about what to do if your card is lost or stolen. • When you make a transaction, be aware of your surroundings. Look out for suspicious activity near the ATM or night deposit facility, particularly if it is after sunset. At night, be sure that the facility (including the parking area and walkways) is well lit. Consider having someone accompany you when you use the facility, especially after sunset. If you observe any problem, go to another ATM or night deposit facility. • Don’t accept assistance from anyone you don’t know when using an ATM or night deposit facility. • If you notice anything suspicious or if any other problem arises after you have begun an ATM transaction, you may want to cancel the transaction, put away your card, and leave. You might consider using another ATM or coming back later. • Don’t display your cash; put it away as soon as the ATM transaction is completed and count the cash later when you are in the safety of your own car, home, or other secure surrounding. • At a drive-up facility, make sure all the vehicle doors are locked and all of the windows are rolled up, except the driver’s window. Keep the engine running and remain alert to your surroundings. • We want the ATM and night deposit facility to be safe and convenient for you. Therefore, please tell us if you know of any problem with a facility. For instance, let us know if a light is not working or there is any damage to a facility. Please report any suspicious activity or crimes to both the operator of the facility and the local law enforcement officials immediately.
