As used in this Agreement, the words “we,” “our,” “us,” “Grinnell State or GSB” and “Bank” mean Grinnell State Bank. “You”, “your”, and “Customer” refer to the account holder authorized by Grinnell State Bank to use online banking under this Agreement and anyone else authorized by that account holder to exercise control over the account holder’s funds through online banking. “Account” or “accounts” means your accounts at Grinnell State Bank. “Electronic funds transfers” means ATM withdrawals, preauthorized transactions, point of sale transactions, phone banking transactions, and transfers made to and from your Bank accounts using online banking including bill payments. “Retail Online Banking Services” or “Services” means the services provided pursuant to this Agreement, including the bill payment service. “Business days” means Monday through Friday, excluding Federal Holidays.
At any time, we advise our customers to view the “Online Education Center” for detailed training and examples of our online banking products. Online banking can be used to access only the Bank accounts for which you have authorization with GSB. We undertake no obligation to monitor transactions initiated through online banking or other electronic banking services offered by Grinnell State Bank to determine that they are made on behalf of the account holder.
Note: When you enroll in our Retail Online Banking Service, you agree to provide true and accurate information. (Only United States contact information will be accepted). At any time, if any of your contact information changes, you agree to notify Grinnell State Bank. Failing to notify us may result in a disruption of your service in the event we are unable to contact you. Such information includes your address, phone number and email address, as we may from time to time communicate with you through secure messages in this manner regarding this service and your account. When you need to update your physical or mailing address you are required to contact Grinnell State Bank as these changes cannot be made through our Retail Online Banking Service.
You must have an existing account relationship with us to activate our internet banking service. An eligible account means any one of your deposit account(s) to which we may allow access via the Service under this Agreement. (If you want to initiate bill payments or transfer requests from an eligible account(s) through the Service, you will need the required withdraw authority over the account in order to complete the transaction).
If the accounts added to the service are jointly held or have multiple signers, you agree that access to the information and all transactions initiated using your username and password are authorized unless we have been notified to cancel the Service. Each joint account holder will have their own username and password for use of the Service. In cases where you operate an account in the manner where more than (1) signature is required to conduct transactions; it is your responsibility to monitor your online banking service and bank account statements for such activity and unauthorized use. Customer agrees Grinnell State Bank will not assume liability or take responsibility, and therefore holds Grinnell State Bank harmless for transactions conducted on the account using this Service.
When any transfer or payment initiated through the Service generates items to be charged to your eligible account(s), you agree that we may debit the designated account, or the account on which the item is drawn, without requiring your signature on the item and without any notice to you. It is your responsibility as the customer to monitor your account and your account statements for all transactions and activity conducted on your account.
You can use online banking to check the balance of your Grinnell State Bank accounts, view Bank account histories, transfer funds between your Bank accounts and initiate external transfers to your account(s) at your other financial institutions, pay bills, set up alerts, chat with customer service representatives, and initiate secure e-mails. Balance information reflects transactions completed prior to GSB branch locations deposit cut-off times on the previous business day. (The balance at any time may not include transactional items such as point of sale (POS), or ATM activity not yet processed by the merchant, outstanding checks or remote deposit capture transactions not yet received and approved by GSB.) GSB branch locations may have different deposit cut-off times. The earliest cut-off time that may apply for deposits made in person with a bank employee is 5:00 p.m. (Central Time).
You can use online banking 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, although some or all online banking services may not be available occasionally due to emergency or scheduled system maintenance. We will try to post notice of any extended periods of non-availability on our Bank website.
Your initial setup of your login will require you to enter the last four (4) digits of your social security number, along with successfully answering a series of out of wallet questions. You may also be required to use a code we send to you. You will then create your username and password following the password parameter requirements. There may be times that we will require additional authentication to verify your identity via multifactor authentication such as a code to your phone or email that you will be required to provide when signing in. The identity of your password is not communicated to us. You agree that we are authorized to act on instructions received under your password. You accept responsibility for the confidentiality and security of your password and agree to change your password regularly. Your passwords must meet the standards we establish and should not be associated with any commonly known personal identification, such as social security numbers, address, date of birth, or names of children. Our standards will be available for your reference whenever you create or change a password. For security purposes, it is recommended that you memorize your password and do not write it down. To enhance the security for accessing your accounts, we may also offer or require additional security requirements, such as personal reference questions and answers. Upon multiple unsuccessful attempts to use your password, your access to online banking will be locked. After 180 days (6 months) of inactivity you will be required to re-enroll to continue utilizing online banking services. You will be prompted every 12 months to change your password before being granted access to Online or Mobile Banking. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 800-236-3187 with any questions.
You understand the importance of your role in preventing misuse of your accounts through online banking. You agree to promptly examine your paper and or on-line account statement for each of your Bank accounts as soon as you receive it or have access to view it online. You agree to protect the confidentiality of your account, account number, and your personal identification information, such as your driver’s license number and social security number. You understand that personal identification information by itself, or together with information related to your account, may allow unauthorized access to your account. Your password and username are intended to provide security against unauthorized entry and access to your accounts. Data transferred via online banking is encrypted in an effort to provide transmission security and online banking utilizes identification technology to verify that the sender and receiver of online banking transmissions can be appropriately identified by each other. Notwithstanding our efforts to ensure that the service is secure, we cannot and do not warrant and you acknowledge that the internet is inherently insecure; and all data transfers utilizing Grinnell State Bank online banking, email transmitted to and from us, occur openly on the internet and potentially can be monitored. It is recommended to NOT use public Wi-Fi such as at an airport or coffee shop to log into your online bank account. We will not contact you via telephone or via email requesting your username or password. If you are contacted by anyone requesting this information, please contact us immediately. If you disclose your password to anyone, and/or if you allow someone to use your password to access your accounts, you are authorizing them to act on your behalf and you will be solely responsible for any use of the system by them (e.g., such as when you provide this information to a joint account holder, spouse, and/or a third-party service provider.)

Bill payment fees will be as follows: free for the basic bill pay services. Other services available inside bill pay may incur a fee. The Service will notify you of the fee at the time if a fee applies to a specific service within bill pay. (Such as overnight payments.) You agree to pay any additional reasonable charges for services you request which are not covered by this Agreement.

If you close that account, you must contact us immediately to designate another account as your primary account.
Transfers initiated through online and or mobile banking before 5:00 p.m. (Central Time) on a business day are posted to your account the same day. Transfers completed after 5:00 p.m. (Central Time) on a business day, Saturday, Sunday, or banking holiday (days Federal Reserve and US Postal System are not open for business), will be posted on the next business day. Online banking identifies transfers based upon the username of the user who made the electronic transfer. Accordingly, you understand and acknowledge that the View Postings screens in both the Transfer and Bill Payer menu options of online banking will not reflect transfers made by multiple users from the same account if different usernames are used. You agree to communicate with any other persons with authorized access to your accounts concerning any transfers or bill payments from your accounts in order to avoid overdrafts.

You may use the Service to check the balance of your eligible account(s) and to transfer funds among your eligible accounts at GSB. However, current federal regulations restrict the number of transactions that you can make from certain types of accounts, such as money market and savings accounts. For these types of accounts, no more than six (6) transfers and withdraws, or a combination of such transfers and withdrawals, per calendar month or statement cycle (or similar period) of at least 4 weeks, to another account (including a transaction account) of the depositor at the same institution or to a third party by means of a preauthorized or automatic transfer, or telephonic (including data transmission) agreement, order or instruction, or by check, draft, debit card, or similar order made by the depositor and payable to third parties will be allowed. Transfers and bill payments authorized by personal computer through the Service are counted toward the six (6) transfers per statement period. Federal regulations currently place no limits on the number of transfers or bill payments from your checking, therefore this financial institution currently limits the bill pay service to only checking. If a hold has been placed on deposits made to an account from which you wish to transfer funds, you cannot transfer the portion of funds held until the hold expires.
Bill pay is an optional service which is available upon enrollment in online banking. Once you have enrolled in online banking, click on the “Bill Payment” tab to complete the enrollment process for the bill payment service. In order to have access to the service:
When using the service, you agree to maintain one or more eligible accounts with us and to keep sufficient balances in any account to cover any transaction and fees that are ultimately approved by or related to the service. Access to this service is subject to bank approval. For additional terms and conditions for this service please refer to the “GSB Bill Pay Terms”.
If your account has insufficient funds to perform all electronic fund transfers you have requested for a given business day, then:
Electronic funds transfers involving currency disbursements, like ATM withdrawals, will have priority.
Electronic fund transfers initiated through online banking which would result in an overdraft of your account may, at our discretion, be canceled.
In the event the electronic funds transfers initiated through online banking which would result in an overdraft to your account are not canceled, Overdraft Item Charges may be assessed pursuant to the terms of the deposit agreement for that account. Refer to the Grinnell State Bank Miscellaneous Services brochure.
You agree to pay such charges and authorize us to deduct the calculated amount from your designated billing account for these amounts and any additional charges that may be incurred by you. Other fees and penalties associated with your standard deposit accounts will continue to apply.
Online Banking Bill Payment Service/Scheduling Bill Payments/How to Cancel a Bill Payment:
*Please refer to the Bill Payment options in the “Online Education Center”.
You understand information about your accounts or the transfers you make may automatically be disclosed to others. For example, tax laws require disclosure to the government of the amount of interest you earn, and some transactions, such as large currency and foreign transactions, must be reported to the government. In addition, we routinely inform OnBoard Advisor, (a background screening company) when accounts are closed because they were not handled properly. We may also seek information about you from others, such as the credit bureau, in connection with the opening or maintaining of your account or in connection with approving your access to online banking. You agree and hereby authorize all of these transfers of information.
You will not receive a separate bank statement. Transfers to and from your accounts using online banking will appear on the respective periodic paper statements for your Bank accounts and mailed or delivered directly to you.

Grinnell State Bank reserves the right to change the method in which your monthly account statements are delivered to you. Any change will be communicated to you in advance.
We may change any term of this Agreement at any time. If the change would result in increased fees for any online banking service, increased liability for you, fewer types of available electronic funds transfers, or stricter limitations on the frequency or dollar amount of transfers, we agree to give you notice at least thirty (30) days before the effective date of any such change, unless an immediate change is necessary to maintain the security of an account or our electronic funds transfer system. We will post any required notice of the change in terms on our Bank website or forward it to you by e-mail or by postal mail, in accordance with regulatory disclosure requirements. Your continued use of any or all of the subject online banking services indicates your acceptance of the change in terms. We reserve the right to waive, reduce or reverse charges or fees in individual situations. You acknowledge and agree that changes to fees applicable to specific accounts are governed by the applicable deposit agreements and disclosures.

Methods of Delivery- We may provide Alerts through one or more channels (“EndPoints”): (a) a mobile device, by text message, (b) a mobile device by push notification; (c) an email account, by an e-mail message; or (d) your Grinnell State Bank online banking message inbox by email message. 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.

Limitations- Grinnell State Bank provides Alerts as a convenience to you for information purposes only. An Alert does not constitute a bank record for the deposit or credit account to which it pertains. We strive to provide Alerts in a timely manner with accurate information. 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 Grinnell State Bank’s control. We neither guarantee the delivery nor the accuracy of the contents of each Alert. You agree to not hold Grinnell State Bank, its directors, officers, employees, agents, or 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 password, login credentials 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. Therefore, you acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for the access and manner in which these Alerts may be viewed by others. Furthermore, you agree to notify Grinnell State Bank immediately in the event your mobile or electronic device used to receive these alerts is lost or stolen.
This Account-to-Account Transfer Terms of Service document (hereinafter “Agreement”) is a contract between you and Grinnell State Bank, (GSB) (hereinafter “we” or “us”) in connection with the Account-to-Account Transfer Service (as defined below) offered through our online banking site or mobile applications (the “Site”). This Agreement applies to your use of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service and the portion of the Site through which the Account-to-Account Transfer Service is offered.
The Account-to-Account Transfer service (A2A) allows customers of GSB to transfer money from their eligible GSB accounts to eligible accounts at another financial institution. You may also transfer from your account at another financial institution to your account at GSB using the A2A transfer provided by GSB. The transfer of funds will be via an electronic ACH transaction. The initial setup for the Account-to-Account Transfer service as well as setting up any external accounts from another financial institution must be done through the web browser before being able to use verified external accounts to send and receive money through the mobile app.
As used in this Agreement, the words “we”, “our” “us”, “Grinnell State Bank or GSB” and “Bank” mean Grinnell State Bank. “You”, “your”, and “customer” means the account holder authorized by Grinnell State Bank to use Account-to-Account services under this agreement and anyone else authorized by that account holder to exercise control over the account holder’s funds through this service. “Account” means a checking, money market or savings account that is either an Eligible Transaction Account or External Account, as applicable. “ACH Network” (Automatic Clearing House) means the funds transfer system, governed by the NACHA Rules, who provides funds transfer services to participating financial institutions. “Affiliates” are companies related by common ownership or control. “Business Day” is every Monday through Friday, excluding Federal holidays. “Eligible Transaction Account” is a transaction account from which your transfers will be debited, your Account-to-Account Transfer Service fees, if any, will be automatically debited, or to which transfers and credits to you will be credited, that is eligible for the Account-to-Account Transfer Service. An Eligible Transaction Account shall be limited to a checking, money market or savings account that you hold with us. “External Account” is your account at another financial institution (i) to which you are transferring funds from, to your GSB Eligible Transaction Account; or (ii) from which you are transferring funds to, from your Eligible GSB Transaction Account. An external account shall be limited to a checking, money market, savings, or a brokerage account. *Only certain brokerage companies are allowed. See Site for details. “Payment Network” means a debit or credit network (such as the ACH Network or ACCEL / Exchange payment network) through which funds may be transferred. “Service Provider” means companies that we have engaged (and their Affiliates) to render some or all of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service to you on our behalf. “Transfer Instruction” is specific information provided for a transfer to be made that you provide to the Account-to-Account Transfer Service for a transfer of funds. Transfer instructions include routing number, account number, account name and bank name for the external account.
We are offering you the Account-to-Account Transfer Service through one or more Service Providers that we have engaged to render some or all of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service to you on our behalf. However, notwithstanding that we have engaged such a Service Provider to render some or all of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service to you, we are the sole party liable to you for any payments or transfers conducted using the Account-to-Account Transfer Service and we are solely responsible to you and any third party to the extent any liability attaches in connection with the Account-to-Account Transfer Service. You agree that we have the right under this Agreement to delegate to Service Providers all of the rights and performance obligations that we have under this Agreement, and that the Service Providers will be third party beneficiaries of this Agreement and will be entitled to all the rights and protections that this Agreement provides to us.
You represent and warrant that you are either the sole owner or a joint owner of the Eligible Transaction Account and the External Account and that you have all necessary legal right, power, and authority to transfer funds between the Eligible Transaction Account and the External Account. If you are a joint owner of the Eligible Transaction Account, External Account, or both, then you represent and warrant that (i) you have been authorized by all of the other joint owners to operate such Accounts without their consent (including without limitation to withdraw or deposit any amount of funds to such Accounts or to even withdraw all funds from such Accounts); and (ii) we may act on your instructions regarding such Accounts without liability to such other joint owners. Further, you represent and warrant that the External Account is located in the United States. 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 11 (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 11 (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.
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. 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 recovery and will bear no responsibility or liability for damages resulting from incorrect information entered by you.
There are limits on the amount of money you can send or receive through our Account-to-Account Transfer Service. These limits may be adjusted from time-to-time in our sole discretion. You will be notified of any changes, as required by applicable law.
Limits are as follows:
We or our Service Provider also reserve the right to select the method in which to remit funds on your behalf though 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.
Standard Transfers
Next-Day Transfers
You may be eligible to initiate next-day transfers in the Account-to-Account Transfer Service. Limitations may apply. Please contact a Personal Banker at 800-236-3187 for further details.
You may cancel a transfer at any time until it begins processing (as shown in the Account-to-Account Transfer Service). We will, to the extent permitted by law, make reasonable attempts to return any unclaimed, refused, refunded, prohibited, or denied transfer to your Account that we debited for the funds transfer. If this is unsuccessful (for example, the Eligible Transaction Account has been closed) we will make reasonable attempts to otherwise return the funds to you.
If you desire to stop any transfer that has already been processed, you must contact our customer service department pursuant to the earlier section Electronic Funds Transfers: your rights and responsibilities. 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 stop pays as set out in the Grinnell State Bank Miscellaneous Services brochure.
You are responsible for paying all fees associated with your use of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service. Applicable transaction fees and other optional services (such as Next-Day transfers) will be disclosed in the user interface within the Account-to Account Transfer Service or Site or refer to the Grinnell State Bank Miscellaneous Services brochure. Additional transaction charges may apply to the funds transfer when a request to debit your account with Grinnell State Bank results in an overdraft to that GSB account, a Paid Item Charge or Return Item Charge for the overdraft may apply each time a transfer transaction is presented which would create an overdraft or results in an overdraft to your Eligible GSB account. Refer to the Grinnell State Bank Miscellaneous Services brochure. 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. Refer to the Truth & Savings disclosure for your account, provided to you at account opening and our Miscellaneous Services brochure. 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 24 (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 fees in the External Account; Section 24 (Failed Or Returned Transfer Instructions) should be interpreted as applying to the External Account, not just the Eligible Transaction Account, in such circumstances.
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.
In using the Account-to-Account Transfer Service, you understand transfers may be returned for various reasons other than Non-Sufficient Funds, such as, but not limited to, the External Account number is not valid. We will void the transfer and credit your Account from which you attempted to transfer funds. You may receive notification from us.

We will act on your telephone calls as previously stated in earlier section Electronic Funds Transfers: your rights and responsibilities, but otherwise, such telephone calls will not constitute legal notices under this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Account-to-Account Transfer Service is not offered to minors unless the minor is using an Eligible Transaction Account in the name of the minor with a parent or guardian as a co-signer or guarantor. By using the Account-to-Account Transfer Service, you represent that you meet these requirements and that you agree to be bound by this Agreement.
The following types of transfers are prohibited through the Account-to-Account Transfer Service, and we have the right but not the obligation to monitor for, block, cancel and/or reverse such transfers:
Except as required by applicable law, in no event shall we or our Service Providers be liable for any claims or damages resulting from your scheduling of prohibited transfers. We encourage you to provide notice to us by the methods described in Section 14 (Notices to Us Regarding the Account-to-Account Transfer Service) above of any violations of the Agreement generally.
You agree that you are independently responsible for complying with all applicable laws in all of your activities related to your use of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service, regardless of the purpose of the use, and for all communications you send through the Account-to-Account Transfer Service. We and our Service Providers have the right but not the obligation to monitor and remove communications content that we find in our sole discretion to be objectionable in any way. In addition, you are prohibited from using the Account to Account Transfer Service for communications or activities that: (a) violate any law, statute, ordinance or regulation; (b) promote hate, violence, racial intolerance, or the financial exploitation of a crime; (c) defame, abuse, harass or threaten others; (d) include any language or images that are bigoted, hateful, racially offensive, vulgar, obscene, indecent or discourteous; (e) infringe or violate any copyright, trademark, right of publicity or privacy or any other proprietary right under the laws of any jurisdiction; (f) impose an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure; (g) facilitate any viruses, trojan horses, worms or other computer programming routines that may damage, detrimentally interfere with, surreptitiously intercept or expropriate any system, data or information; (h) constitute use of any robot, spider, other automatic device, or manual process to monitor or copy the Account to Account Transfer Service or the portion of the Site through which the Account to Account Transfer Service is offered without our prior written permission; (i) constitute use of any device, software or routine to bypass technology protecting the Site or Account to Account Transfer Service, or interfere or attempt to interfere, with the Site or the Account to Account Transfer Service; or (j) may cause us or our Service Providers to lose any of the services from our internet service providers, payment processors, or other vendors. We encourage you to provide notice to us by the methods described in Section 14 (Notices to Us Regarding the Account-to-Account Transfer Service) above of any violations of the Agreement generally.
The EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) Act, most commonly known as Regulation E, provides consumers with certain rights and responsibilities with respect to EFTs initiated through our internet banking service. Please read the following EFT disclosures carefully. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your User ID or password has been lost or stolen. Telephoning us is the best way to keep your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account. If you tell us within two (2) business days, you can lose no more than $50. If you do NOT tell us within 2 days after you learn of the loss or theft of your User ID or password, and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from using your login credentials had you told us, you could lose as much as $500.00. Also, if your statement (or for a prepaid account where no statement is sent, if your electronic history or written history) shows transfers that you did not make, including those made by card, code, or other means, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement was transmitted to you (or for a prepaid account where no statement is sent, 60 days after the earlier of the date you electronically access your account, if the error could be viewed in your electronic history, or the date we sent the FIRST written history on which the error appeared), you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we may in our sole discretion extend the period.
It is your responsibility to determine what, if any, taxes apply to the transactions you make or receive, and it is your responsibility to collect, report and remit the correct tax to the appropriate tax authority. We are not responsible for determining whether taxes apply to your transaction, or for collecting, reporting, or remitting any taxes arising from any transaction.
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 overdraft line of credit limit or overdraft protection limit of your Eligible Transaction Account, to cover the transfer, if applicable), 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 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 overdraft line of credit 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 Paid Item Charge or Return Item Charge (overdraft item charges) that may be assessed by us, as set forth in your Miscellaneous Services brochure from us or your account agreement with us. You hereby authorize us and our Service Provider to deduct all of these amounts from your designated Eligible Transaction Account, including by ACH debit. Service Provider is authorized to report the facts concerning the return to any credit reporting agency.
It is your sole responsibility, and you agree to ensure that the contact information in your user profile is current and accurate. This includes, but is not limited to, name, physical address, phone numbers and email addresses. If you need to make changes to your customer profile for anything listed above, you can do so by calling our customer service Department at 800-236-3187 or stopping in any one of our branches. We are not responsible for any payment processing errors or fees incurred if you do not provide an accurate Eligible Transaction Account, Transfer Instructions or contact information.
Your enrollment in the applicable Account-to-Account Transfer Service may not be fulfilled if we cannot verify your identity or other necessary information. In addition, and in accordance with our Privacy Policy, you agree that we reserve the right to obtain personal information about you, including without limitation, financial information, and transaction history regarding your Eligible Transaction Account. You further understand and agree that we reserve the right to use personal information about you for our and our Service Providers’ everyday business purposes, such as to maintain your ability to access the Account-to- Account Transfer Service, to authenticate you when you log in, to send you information about the Account-to-Account Transfer Service, to perform fraud screening, to verify your identity, to determine your transaction limits, to perform collections, to comply with laws, regulations, court orders and lawful instructions from government agencies, to protect the personal safety of subscribers or the public, to defend claims, to resolve disputes, to troubleshoot problems, to enforce this Agreement, to protect our rights and property, and to customize, measure, and improve the Account-to-Account Transfer Service and the content and layout of the Site. Additionally, we and our Service Providers may use your information for risk management purposes and may use, store, and disclose your information acquired in connection with this Agreement as permitted by law, including (without limitation) any use to effect, administer or enforce a transaction or to protect against or prevent actual or potential fraud, unauthorized transactions, claims or other liability. We and our Service Providers shall have the right to retain such data even after termination or expiration of this Agreement for risk management, regulatory compliance, or audit reasons, and as permitted by applicable law for everyday business purposes. In addition, we and our Service Providers may use, store, and disclose such information acquired in connection with the Account-to-Account Transfer Service in statistical form for pattern recognition, modeling, enhancement and improvement, system analysis and to analyze the performance of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service.
If you wish to cancel the Account-to-Account Transfer Service, you may contact us as set forth in Section 14 (Notices to Us Regarding the Account-to-Account Transfer Service) above. Any transfer(s) that have begun processing before the requested cancellation date will be processed by us.

We will post any required notice of the change in terms on the Bank website or forward it to you by e-mail or by postal mail, in accordance with regulatory disclosure requirements. Your continued use of any or all of the subject online banking services indicates your acceptance of the change in terms. We reserve the right to waive, reduce or reverse charges or fees in individual situations. You acknowledge and agree that changes to fees applicable to specific accounts are governed by the applicable deposit agreements and disclosures. Further, we may, from time to time, revise, update, upgrade or enhance the Account-to-Account Transfer Service and/or related applications or material, which may render all such prior versions obsolete.

As your Financial Institution we act as your agent with respect to the custody of your funds for the Account-to-Account Transfer Service. We do not have control of, or liability for, any products or services that are paid for with our Account-to-Account Transfer Service. We also do not guarantee the identity of any user of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service (including but not limited to recipients to whom you send transfers).

We may also assign or delegate certain elements of our rights and responsibilities under this Agreement to independent contractors or other third parties.

In addition, we, in our sole discretion, reserve the right to terminate this Agreement, access to the Site and/or use of the Account-to-Account Transfer Service for any reason or no reason and at any time. The remedies contained in this Section 33 are cumulative and are in addition to the other rights and remedies available to us under this Agreement, by law or otherwise.
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.
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.
Unless our account agreement with you states otherwise, this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Iowa, applicable federal laws, Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code, NACHA Network or ACH Network Rules and other applicable rules. 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 above) 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) of this Agreement. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this Agreement. 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.
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.
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 applicable 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.
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.
THE SITE AND ACCOUNT TO ACCOUNT TRANSFER SERVICE AND RELATED DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. IN PARTICULAR, WE DO NOT GUARANTEE CONTINUOUS, UNINTERRUPTED OR SECURE ACCESS TO ANY PART OF OUR ACCOUNT-TO-ACCOUNT TRANSFER SERVICE, AND OPERATION OF OUR SITE MAY BE INTERFERED WITH BY NUMEROUS FACTORS OUTSIDE OF OUR CONTROL.
