The
first time that you enter the UCU Home Banking Site, using your Password,
will mean that you have accepted and agreed to electronically receive
and comply with UCU's Electronic Funds Transfers Disclosure, which appears
below, as amended from time to time.
UNITED
CREDIT UNION
INTERNET
ACCOUNT ACCESS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
PRINT AND RETAIN
FOR YOUR RECORDS
The following information
defines and describes the types of Electronic Funds Transfers which are
available to members with the Perfect Teller service. It also contains
your rights and responsibilities concerning these transactions, including
your rights under the Electronic Funds Transfers Act. Please read this
document carefully. You may want to print it or save it for future reference.
1. Internet
Account Access.
You can use
the Perfect Teller account access to:
a. Obtain balances
and other account details on your share and loan accounts.
b. Make transfers between your share accounts or another member’s account.
c. Make loan and Visa payments from shares.
d. Review transaction activity on your accounts, excluding Visa.
e. Print transaction history.
2. Limitation
on Transfers.
a. Federal
regulations limit pre-authorized transfers from your share
account to no more than six per account per month. This includes transfers
by phone, fax, wire and cable, overdraft transfers to checking, and
Internet instruction.
b. The functions
and limitations of the Perfect Teller account access service
may be updated, without notice, at the option of UCU in order to provide
improved service to the membership.
3. Liability.
By applying
for Internet account access, you agree to accept responsibility for
protecting the integrity of your Password, in order to prevent unauthorized
transactions and/or account access. You also agree that UCU may revoke
your Internet account access if unauthorized account access and/or transactions
occur as the apparent result of your negligence in safeguarding the
Password.
Granting access
to your account via the Internet to any other person (non-owner) will
make you financially liable for all unauthorized access, losses or misuse
of the account, until reported to UCU.
Tell UCU at
once, if you believe your account number, password, or any record thereof,
has been lost or stolen, or if your account has been accessed without
your authority. Telephoning us is the best way of keeping your possible
losses down, but you may also notify us by writing to our main office.
You could lose all the money in your accounts, but if you tell us
within two (2) business days of the loss, theft or unauthorized access,
you can lose no more than $50 if someone accesses your account without
your permission. If you do NOT tell us within two (2) business days
after you learn of the unauthorized access, and we can prove we could
have stopped someone from accessing your account without your permission,
you could lose as much as $500.
If your statement
shows any electronic fund transfer you did not make or authorize to
be made, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after
the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money
you lost after 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone
from taking the money. If a good reason (such as a long trip or
a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we may extend the time
periods.
4. Address and
Telephone Numbers.
If you believe
unauthorized access occurred on your account or your Password has
been stolen, or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from
your account by accessing your account without your permission, call
United Credit Union, Monday through Friday between the hours of
8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. at 219-372-2521 or write to United Credit Union,
P. O. Box 2079, Warsaw, IN 46581-2079.
5. Business
Days.
For
purposes of these disclosures, UCU business days are Monday through
Saturday, excluding holidays.
6. Documentation
of Transfers.
Your periodic
statement will specifically identify each electronic transaction. You
will receive a monthly account statement for each month in which you
initiate electronic transactions. In any case, you will get a statement
at least quarterly.
Additionally,
through the Perfect Teller Internet access service, you can view
all of your transaction activity at any time.
7. Charges.
There is no charge
for the Perfect Teller account access.
8. Stop Payments.
Perfect
Teller transactions are "real time" and cannot be canceled
except by performing corresponding reverse transactions.
9. Information
to Third Parties.
We will
disclose information to third parties about your account or the transactions
you make:
a. If we
return checks drawn on your account for insufficient funds or if
we are unable to complete an electronic transfer because of insufficient
funds.
b. Where
it is necessary for completing transactions.
c. In order
to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party,
such as a credit bureau or merchant.
d. In order
to comply with government agency or court order.
e. If you
give us your written permission.
10. In case
of Errors or Questions about your Electronic Transfers.
If you think
your statement is wrong or if you need more information about a transaction
listed on the statement, immediately telephone us at 219-372-2521,
Monday
through Friday, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. or write
us at P. O. Box 2079, Warsaw, IN 46581-2079. We must hear from
you no later than 60 days after we sent you the FIRST statement on
which the problem or error appeared.
a. Tell
us your name and account number.
b. Describe
the error or the transaction you are unsure about, including the transaction
confirmation number if possible, and explain as clearly as you can
why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.
c. Tell
us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell
us verbally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question
in writing 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 calendar days to investigate your
complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will re-credit your
account within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error,
so that you will have 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 we do not receive it within 10 business days,
we may not re-credit your account. If we decide there was no error,
we will send you a written explanation within three (3) business days
after we finish our investigation. You may ask for copies of the documents
we used in our investigation.
11. Scheduled
Availability.
Perfect
Teller will normally be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week,
with an exception of a small window of daily back up time.
12. Password
Confidentiality.
You
are the key to safeguarding the confidentiality of your accounts. You
are issued a Password, which you may change anytime you log on to Perfect
Teller. You should select a Password that you can easily remember,
but that no one else would likely guess; for example, do not select
your address, telephone number or date of birth for your Password.
You can change you Password as often as you desire, by selecting
the change Password option on the Perfect Teller menu. Your Password
can be up to 32 characters in length and combine upper and lower case
letters, numbers, spaces and punctuation. If you forget your Password,
you can call United CU at 219-372-2521 and have your Password reissued.
Never share
your Password with anyone, even family members. If you are the only
one who knows your Password, you have protected your accounts against
unauthorized access. REMEMBER, NO REPRESENTATIVE OF UNITED CREDIT
UNION WILL EVER ASK YOU FOR YOUR PASSWORD.
13. Security
of Perfect Teller.
When you logged
onto Perfect Teller, you accessed a secured site. UCU is committed
to online technology and has taken steps to ensure that accessing
your account via the Internet is safe and secure.
Additionally,
we allow you to select a Password of your choosing that will be easy
for you to remember and keep "secret." This Password is used
to authenticate you each time you log on to Perfect Teller, prior
to allowing you to begin viewing your information. The confidentiality
of your accounts are maintained as the data is passed from our host
computer to your personal computer in an encrypted format, where
the program then decodes the information for you to view. This prevents
the data from being intercepted and/or viewed by an unauthorized third
party.
Each user session
is set up for a specific period of time. If this amount of time passes
with no activity from you, your session times out. If your session times
out and you are not finished using Perfect Teller, you will need
to log in again. This reduces the "window of opportunity"
for an unauthorized user to access your account information if you
walk away from your computer without logging off. Every effort was made
to ensure that this system is as secure as possible.
14. Your Responsibility
to Prevent Unauthorized Access to Your Accounts.
UCU
is confident that we have taken the necessary security precautions to
ensure that our Internet account access service is secure and that
your account information remains confidential. However, it is also your
responsibility to play an active role in protecting the security of
your accounts by doing the following:
a. Never
share your Password with anyone, even family members. If you are the
only one who knows your Password, you have protected your account against
unauthorized access. REMEMBER, NO REPRESENTATIVE OF UNITED
CU WILL EVER ASK YOU FOR YOUR PASSWORD.
b. We recommend
that you change your Password on a regular basis; Contact the credit
union immediately if you think that your Password may have
been compromised.
c. Do not
walk away from your computer in the middle of an active Perfect Teller
session. If you are logged on, and walk away, anyone can have immediate
access to your accounts(s). Always remember to log off when you are
finished with your session.
