TERMS AND CONDITIONS
OF YOUR ACCOUNTIMPORTANT ACCOUNT OPENING INFORMATION - Federal law requires us to obtain sufficient information to verify your identity. You may be asked several questions and to provide one or more forms of identification to fulfill this requirement. In some instances we may use outside sources to confirm the information. The information you provide is protected by our privacy policy and federal law.
AGREEMENT - This document, along with any other documents we give you pertaining to your account(s), is a contract that establishes rules which control your account(s) with us. Please read this carefully. If you sign the signature card or open or continue to have your account with us, you agree to these rules. You will receive a separate schedule of rates, qualifying balances, and fees if they are not included in this document. If you have any questions, please call us.
This agreement is subject to applicable federal laws and the laws of the state of California (except to the extent that this agreement can and does vary such rules or laws). The body of state and federal law that governs our relationship with you, however, is too large and complex to be reproduced here. The purpose of this document is to:
(1) summarize some laws that apply to common transactions;
(2) establish rules to cover transactions or events which the law does not regulate;
(3) establish rules for certain transactions or events which the law regulates but permits variation by agreement; and
(4) give you disclosures of some of our policies to which you may be entitled or in which you may be interested.
If any provision of this document is found to be unenforceable according to its terms, all remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. We may permit some variations from our standard agreement, but we must agree to any variation in writing either on the signature card for your account or in some other document.
As used in this document the words "we," "our," and "us" mean the financial institution and the words "you" and "your" mean the account holder(s) and anyone else with the authority to deposit, withdraw, or exercise control over the funds in the account. The headings in this document are for convenience or reference only and will not govern the interpretation of the provisions. Unless it would be inconsistent to do so, words and phrases used in this document should be construed so the singular includes the plural and the plural includes the singular.
MEMBERSHIP - Membership is required to obtain services. Provided you are with our field of membership, your completion of an Account Signature Card and a minimum deposit of one share ($1.00) into your Prime Share Savings Account makes you a Member of Clearpath and entitles you to apply for all savings and lending services. All Loans and Share Draft Checking accounts are subject to approval. As a member of Clearpath, you agree to these rules, our bylaws, and bylaw amendments, and subscribe to maintain at least one share in the Prime Share Account. A complete list of eligible employer groups is shown on our website. Ownership in an account where another party is first named does not constitute membership; only the first named is the voting Member.
Once you are a Member in good standing, you may remain a Member, even if you move, change jobs, or retire.
BYLAWS - Our bylaws, which we may amend from time to time, establish basic rules about our credit union policies and operations which affect your account and membership. You may obtain a copy of the bylaws on request. Our right to require you to give us notice of your intention to withdraw funds from your account is described in the bylaws. Unless we have agreed otherwise, you are not entitled to receive any original item after it is paid, although you may request that we send you an item(s) or a copy of an item(s). Dividends are based on current earnings and available earnings of the credit union, after providing for required reserves.
CLOSING ACCOUNTS - RIGHTS OF THE CREDIT UNION - We reserve the right to close any sub-account(s) which have been deliberately manipulated to our detriment and/or our membership. ÒManipulationÓ includes, but is not limited to, kiting and repeated patterns of transactions which have no apparent business reason other than to take advantage of Regulation "CC" hold periods and/or "interest float" to our detriment.
We have the right to terminate your Share Draft Checking Accounts without notice or your consent at any time, subject only to any restrictions contained in the CREDIT UNION'S Bylaws. Our authority concerning your Share Draft Checking Account(s) with us may not be changed or terminated by you, except by written notice to us, which will not affect any prior transaction. We can close your Share Draft Checking Account at our option if there has been no activity for 90 days. We can close your Share Draft Checking Account immediately if you fail to maintain your account in a responsible way, or cause a loss to the CREDIT UNION. If we close your Share Draft Checking Account for cause, we may report the reason your account was closed to a reporting agency, such as ChexSystems.
NON-PARTICIPATION - If you fail to reach or maintain the required minimum share balance for a period of six months, or perform any action or activity in violation of any lawful obligation which causes a financial loss to Clearpath, any physical abuse of our property, or physical or verbal abuse of the staff, other members, or other persons lawfully on Clearpath premises, you may be refused certain services or benefits or you may be terminated from membership. Members are expected to uphold high standards of honesty, personal responsibility, and courtesy in dealing with the CREDIT UNION and with other Members. Violence or threats of violence against CREDIT UNION staff, volunteers, and/or other Members will not be tolerated.
California law states that inactive account balances must be turned over to the state after a period of three (3) years if you have not:
- Increased or decreased the amount of any of your account(s) with us or presented an appropriate record of crediting dividends or cashed a dividend check from any of your accounts with us; or
- Corresponded in writing or electronically with us concerning any of your accounts with us; or
- Otherwise indicated an interest in any of your accounts with us as evidenced by a memorandum on file with us.
We may charge a fee for mailing an escheat notice. To recover funds turned over to the state, you must file a claim with the state.
LIABILITY - You agree, for yourself (and the person or entity you represent if you sign as a representative of another) to the terms of this account and the schedule of charges. You authorize us to deduct these charges directly from the account balance as accrued. You will pay any additional reasonable charges for services you request which are not covered by this agreement.
Each of you also agrees to be jointly and severally (individually) liable for any account shortage resulting from charges or overdrafts, whether caused by you or another with access to this account. This liability is due immediately, and can be deducted directly from the account balance whenever sufficient funds are available. You have no right to defer payment of this liability, and you are liable regardless of whether you signed the item or benefited from the charge or overdraft. This includes liability for our costs to collect the deficit including, to the extent permitted by law, our reasonable attorneysÕ fees.
CHECK ENDORSEMENTS - The first 1.5 inches on the back side of a check ("Pay to the Order" area) is for signatures and deposit instructions. Checks must be endorsed by all parties to whom the check is payable. All payees on any checks for deposit should be owners or joint owners of the account(s) where the check(s) will be deposited. Generally we do not accept third party checks; if we do, we may require that any third parties have their bank verify or guarantee their endorsement. Checks deposited are processed automatically and any restrictions or notations on either the front or back may be disregarded. We are not responsible for any losses, claims, damages, or expenses that result from your placement of these notations. Failure to follow these standards may result in refusal of the item for deposit. We may endorse checks for you, which we receive for deposit to your account.
DEPOSITS - We will give only provisional credit until collection is final for any items, other than cash, we accept for deposit (including items drawn "on us"). Actual credit for deposits of, or payable in, foreign currency will be at the exchange rate in effect on final collection in U.S. dollars. We are not responsible for transactions by mail or outside depository until we actually record them. We will treat and record all transactions received after our Òdaily cutoff timeÓ on a business day we are open, or received on a day we are not open for business, as if initiated on the next following business day that we are open.
WITHDRAWALS - Unless clearly indicated otherwise on the account records, any of you, acting alone, who signs in the space designated for signatures on the signature card may withdraw or transfer all or any part of the account balance at any time within account limitations. Each of you (until we receive written notice to the contrary) authorizes each other person signing the signature card to indorse any item payable to you or your order for deposit to this account or any other transaction with us. We may charge your account for a check even though payment was made before the date of the check, unless we have received written notice of the postdating in time to have a reasonable opportunity to act. We may refuse any withdrawal or transfer request which you attempt on forms not approved by us, by any method we do not specifically permit, which is greater in number than the frequency permitted, or which is for an amount greater or less than any withdrawal limitations. Even if we honor a nonconforming request, we may treat continued abuse of the stated limitations (if any) as your act of closing the account. We will use the date the transaction is completed by us (as opposed to the date you initiate it) to apply the frequency limitations. The fact that we may honor withdrawal requests that overdraw the available account balance does not obligate us to do so later. See the funds availability policy for information about when you can withdraw funds you deposit. For those accounts for which our funds availability policy does not apply, you can ask us when you make a deposit when those funds will be available for withdrawal.
OWNERSHIP OF ACCOUNT AND BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION - These rules apply to this account depending on the form of ownership and beneficiary designation, if any, specified on the account records. We reserve the right to refuse some forms of ownership on any or all of our accounts. We make no representations as to the appropriateness or effect of the ownership and beneficiary designations, except as they determine to whom we pay the account funds. As used in this agreement "party" means a person who, by the terms of the account, has a present right, subject to request, to payment from a multiple-party account other than as an agent.
Individual Account - is an account in the name of one person.
Joint Account - This account or certificate is owned by the named parties. Upon the death of any of them, ownership passes to the survivor(s).
Joint Account of Husband and Wife with Right of Survivorship - This account or certificate is owned by the named parties, who are husband and wife, and is presumed to be their community property. Upon the death of either of them, ownership passes to the survivor.
Community Property Account of Husband and Wife - This account or certificate is the community property of the named parties who are husband and wife. The ownership during lifetime and after the death of a spouse is determined by the law applicable to community property generally and may be affected by a will.
Tenancy in Common Account - This account or certificate is owned by the named parties as tenants in common. Upon the death of any party, the ownership interest of that party passes to the named pay-on-death payee(s) of that party or, if none, to the estate of that party.
P.O.D. Account with Single Party - This account or certificate is owned by the named party. Upon the death of that party, ownership passes to the named pay-on-death payee(s).
P.O.D. Account with Multiple Parties - This account or certificate is owned by the named parties. Upon the death of any of them, ownership passes to the survivor(s). Upon the death of all of them, ownership passes to the named pay-on-death payee(s).
Totten Trust Account - (subject to this form) - If two or more of you create this account, you own the account jointly with survivorship. Beneficiaries cannot withdraw unless: (1) all persons creating the account die, and (2) the beneficiary is then living. If two or more beneficiaries are named and survive the death of all persons creating the account, such beneficiaries will own this account in equal shares, without right of survivorship. The person(s) creating either of these account types reserves the right to: (1) change beneficiaries, (2) change account types, and (3) withdraw all or part of the account funds at any time.
Trust Account Subject to Separate Agreement - We will abide by the terms of any separate agreement which clearly pertains to this account and which you file with us. Any additional consistent terms stated on this form will also apply.
BUSINESS ACCOUNTS - Earnings in the form of interest, dividends, or credits will be paid only on collected funds, unless otherwise provided by law or our policy. We may require the governing body of the legal entity opening the account to give us a separate authorization telling us who is authorized to act on its behalf. We will honor the authorization until we actually receive written notice of a change from the governing body of the legal entity.
TEMPORARY ACCOUNT AGREEMENT - If this option is selected, this is a temporary account agreement. Each person who signs in the space designated for signatures on the signature card (except as indicated to the contrary) may transact business on this account. However, we may at some time in the future restrict or prohibit further use of this account if you fail to comply with the requirements we have imposed within 30 days.
FICTITIOUS BUSINESS NAME ACCOUNTS - If the name in which the account is held is fictitious, each account holder represents that one or more of the account holders have the right to use that name and have fulfilled all legal requirements for using and or doing business under that name.
STOP PAYMENTS - You must make any stop-payment order in the manner required by law and we must receive it in time to give us a reasonable opportunity to act on it before our stop-payment cutoff time. To be effective, your stop-payment order must precisely identify the number, date and amount of the item, and the payee.
You may stop payment on any item drawn on your account whether you sign the item or not, if you have an equal or greater right to withdraw from this account than the person who signed the item. A release of the stop-payment request may be made only by the person who initiated the stop-payment order.
Our stop-payment cutoff time is one hour after the opening of the next banking day after the banking day on which we receive the item. Additional limitations on our obligation to stop payment are provided by law (e.g., we paid the item in cash or we certified the item).
TELEPHONE TRANSFERS - A telephone transfer of funds from this account to another account with us, if otherwise arranged for or permitted, may be made by the same persons and under the same conditions generally applicable to withdrawals made in writing. Unless a different limitation is disclosed in writing, we restrict the number of transfers from a savings account to another account or to third parties, to a maximum of six per month (less the number of "preauthorized transfers" during the month). Other account transfer restrictions may be described elsewhere.
OVERDRAFT PROTECTION - You agree to the automatic transfer of available funds from your Prime Share Savings Account unless you have given us different instructions in writing. The same ownership of both accounts is required and a service fee may be applied. You are allowed six (6) overdrafts (or other pre-authorized electronic transfers) from your savings account each month. Transfers from a Line of Credit, such as your Cash Line Account or Visa Credit Card Account, are optional. Member may decline Courtesy Pay by contacting Credit Union. If you have an open Line of Credit or VISA Credit Card, confirm with us in writing that you would like this overdraft option.
COURTESY PAY - Courtesy Pay is a non-Contractual Service available to members with checking accounts if they are in good standing with the Credit Union. It is designed to provide coverage for unexpected emergencies when the funds in your checking account may not be adequate to cover your transactions.
Courtesy Pay and other overdraft fees may be imposed on overdrafts created by check, ATM, withdrawals, or withdrawals by other electronic means.
The Credit Union is not obligated to pay any item presented for payment if your account does not contain sufficient funds. However, if you maintain your accounts in good standing, we may approve your reasonable overdrafts as a non-contractual courtesy. We may refuse to pay an overdraft for you at any time, even if we may have previously paid overdrafts for you. Should the Credit Union approve your over drafting your account you will be expected to make sufficient deposits to return your account balance to the positive within ten (10) calendar days. Generally, your account will be closed if it remains negative for up to 35 calendar days.
Courtesy Pay should not be viewed as an encouragement to overdraw your accounts. As always, the Credit Union encourages you to maintain your finances responsibly. You have the right to request that Courtesy Pay not be allowed on your accounts.
TRANSFERRING CURRENT CHECKING ACCOUNTS TO OPPORTUNITY CHECKING - Generally, current checking account holders will be transferred to Opportunity Checking if they write excessive NSF checks (generally more than 18 checks within a year). The transfer can be delayed or modified with Management approval. Current members will receive warning and an opportunity to modify their behavior before they are moved to Opportunity Checking. Checking accounts with excessive NSF activity that result in unpaid overdrafts will be closed and not transferred to Opportunity Checking.
MOVING OUT OF OPPORTUNITY CHECKING - Generally, should a member maintain their checking account with no more than 18 NSF checks each year for one year, they may be moved to another share draft checking product, as requested. Exceptions require Management approval. Members who are removed from ChexSystems as a result of warning expirations or other financial institution removals may be moved to another share draft checking product.
AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION - We may change our bylaws and any term of this agreement. Rules governing changes in rates are provided separately in the Truth-in-Savings disclosure or in another document. For other changes we will give you reasonable notice in writing or by any other method permitted by law. We may close this account if your membership in the credit union terminates, or by giving reasonable notice to you and tender of the account balance personally or by mail. Items presented for payment after the account is closed may be dishonored. When you close your account, you are responsible for leaving enough money in the account to cover any outstanding items and charges to be paid from the account. Reasonable notice depends on the circumstances, and in some cases such as when we cannot verify your identity or we suspect fraud, it might be reasonable for us to give you notice after the change or account closure becomes effective. For instance, if we suspect fraudulent activity with respect to your account, we might immediately freeze or close your account and then give you notice. At our option, we may suspend your rights to member services if you violate the terms of this agreement. You must keep us informed of your current address at all times to avoid a fee. Notice from us to any one of you is notice to all of you. If we have notified you of a change in any term of your account and you continue to have your account after the effective date of the change, you have agreed to the new term(s).
STATEMENTS - You must examine your statement of account with "reasonable promptness." If you discover (or reasonably should have discovered) any unauthorized signatures or alterations, you must promptly notify us of the relevant facts. As between you and us, if you fail to do either of these duties, you will have to either share the loss with us, or bear the loss entirely yourself (depending on whether we used ordinary care and, if not, whether we contributed to the loss). The loss could be not only with respect to items on the statement but other items with unauthorized signatures or alterations by the same wrongdoer.
You agree that the time you have to examine your statement and report to us will depend on the circumstances, but will not, in any circumstance, exceed a total of 30 days from when the statement is first sent or made available to you.
You further agree that if you fail to report any unauthorized signatures, alterations, forgeries, or any other errors in your account within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement available, you cannot assert a claim against us on any items in that statement, and as between you and us the loss will be entirely yours. This 60-day limitation is without regard to whether we used ordinary care. The limitation in this paragraph is in addition to that contained in the first paragraph of this section.
ACCOUNT TRANSFER - This account may not be transferred or assigned without our prior written consent.
DIRECT DEPOSITS - If, in connection with a direct deposit plan, we deposit any amount in an account which should have been returned to the Federal Government for any reason, you authorize us to deduct the amount of our liability to the Federal Government from the account or from any other account you have with us, without prior notice and at any time, except as prohibited by law. We may also use any other legal remedy to recover the amount of our liability.
RIGHT TO REPAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS - You each agree that we may (without prior notice and when permitted by law) charge against and deduct from this account any due and payable debt owed to us now or in the future, by any of you having the right of withdrawal, to the extent of such persons' or legal entity's right to withdraw. If the debt arises from a note, "any due and payable debt" includes the total amount of which we are entitled to demand payment under the terms of the note at the time we charge the account, including any balance the due date for which we properly accelerate under the note.
In addition to these contract rights, we may also have rights under a "statutory lien." A "lien" on property is a creditor's right to obtain ownership of the property in the event a debtor defaults on a debt. A Òstatutory lienÓ is one created by federal or state statute. If federal or state law provides us with a statutory lien, then we are authorized to apply, without prior notice, your shares and dividends to any debt you owe us, in accord with the statutory lien.
Neither our contract rights nor rights under a statutory lien apply to this account if: (a) it is an Individual Retirement Account or other tax-deferred retirement account, or (b) the debt is created by a consumer credit transaction under a credit card plan (but this does not affect our rights under any consensual security interest), or (c) the debtor's right of withdrawal arises only in a representative capacity. We will not be liable for the dishonor of any check or draft when the dishonor occurs because we charge and deduct an amount you owe us from your account. You agree to hold us harmless from any claim arising as a result of our exercise of our right to repayment.
AUTHORIZED SIGNER (Individual Accounts only) - A single individual is the owner. The authorized signer is merely designated to conduct transactions on the owner's behalf. We undertake no obligation to monitor transactions to determine that they are on the owner's behalf.
RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS - We are not required to honor any restrictive legend on checks you write unless we have agreed in writing to the restriction. Examples of restrictive legends are "must be presented within 90 days" or "not valid for more than $1,000.00."
PAYMENT ORDER OF ITEMS - The law permits us to pay items (such as checks or drafts) drawn on your account in any order. To assist you in handling your account with us, we are providing you with the following information regarding how we process the items that you write. When processing items drawn on your account, our policy is to pay them according to the dollar amount. We pay the smallest items first. The order in which items are paid is important if there is not enough money in your account to pay all of the items that are presented. Our payment policy minimizes the number of items that may result in an overdraft or NSF fee. If an item is presented without sufficient funds in your account to pay it, we may, at our discretion, pay the item (creating an overdraft) or return the item (NSF). The amounts of the overdraft and NSF fees are disclosed elsewhere. We encourage you to make careful records and practice good account management. This will help you to avoid writing checks or drafts without sufficient funds and incurring the resulting fees.
PLEDGES - Unless we agree otherwise in writing, each owner of this account may pledge all or any part of the funds in it for any purpose to which we agree. Any pledge of this account must first be satisfied before the rights of any surviving account owner or account beneficiary become effective.
ACH AND WIRE TRANSFERS - This agreement is subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code - Fund Transfers as adopted in the state in which you have your account with us. If you originate a fund transfer for which Fedwire is used, and you identify by name and number a beneficiary financial institution, an intermediary financial institution or a beneficiary, we and every receiving or beneficiary financial institution may rely on the identifying number to make payment. We may rely on the number even if it identifies a financial institution, person or account other than the one named. You agree to be bound by automated clearing house association rules. These rules provide, among other things, that payments made to you, or originated by you, are provisional until final settlement is made through a Federal Reserve Bank or payment is otherwise made as provided in Article 4A-403(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code. If we do not receive such payment, we are entitled to a refund from you in the amount credited to your account and the party originating such payment will not be considered to have paid the amount so credited. If we receive a credit to an account you have with us by wire or ACH, we are not required to give you any notice of the payment order or credit.
WIRE TRANSFER AGREEMENT
THESE ARE THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS GOVERNING WIRE TRANSFERS TO OR FROM YOUR ACCOUNTS WITH CLEARPATH, BASED ON YOUR ORAL OR WRITTEN REQUEST. CLEARPATH WILL PROVIDE WIRE TRANSFER SERVICES AS A MEANS TO INITIATE DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS FOR YOU, SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.
- We may, at our discretion, execute your request to transfer funds (called a "Request") to any account maintained with us or another financial institution. We may execute your Request through any intermediary financial institution or funds transfer system we choose, notwithstanding any contrary information contained in your Request. We will use reasonable efforts to execute a Request received from you on the business day the Request is received, provided it is received prior to the cut-off hour we establish for such transfers. Information regarding cut-off hours and wiring instructions is available upon verbal request.
- You authorize Clearpath to accept telephone wire transfer orders with appropriate identification by us. You authorize Clearpath to charge your Accounts for the amount of your Request, plus any applicable fees. See the Savings Account Overview and Additional Services Disclosure for wire transfer fees.
- All parties listed on the Account Signature Card are authorized to issue wire Requests to Clearpath, and to receive any telephone calls from us for the purpose of confirming such requests.
- You understand and agree that the payment of a wire transfer Request may be made by Clearpath or any other institution used to carry out your Request based on the identifying information, name, routing number, and account number provided by you to us for the beneficiary, even if the numbers/information identifies a person different from your intended beneficiary. Clearpath is not responsible for determining whether any of the identifying information or numbers provided by you to us are accurate.
- You and the CREDIT UNION agree that the following specified security procedures represent a reasonable method of providing security against unauthorized payment Requests:
1. Only you and individuals named on your Signature Card for your account may issue a Request to Clearpath.
2. We reserve the right to contact any individual on the Signature Card for your account for the purpose of confirming a wire Request, although we have no obligation to do so.
3. If you make a wire Request telephonically, we must verify your identity to our satisfaction. If we are unable to do so, we may request that you submit your wire Request in writing.
4. If, for any reason, we are not satisfied that a wire transfer Request was issued by an authorized party, we may refuse to execute the Request. If we do so, Clearpath will not incur liability of any nature.
- You may not cancel or change any Request after we receive it. You further agree that we will not be liable for any claims or damages if we attempt, even unsuccessfully, to comply with your instructions.
- Clearpath has no liability for delays or mistakes, provided we act in good faith, and with reasonable care. We are not responsible for delays or mistakes caused by other parties through whom we transmit funds, whether you or we selected such other parties. We are not required to complete a wire transfer Request on the day the Request is received, unless the Request was received within a reasonable time prior to the cut-off time we have established. We will generally use the funds transfer system, but we may use other routes that we, at our sole discretion, consider suitable for the transmission of funds.
- You agree that Clearpath has no liability and is not responsible for any delay or failure to transfer any amount specified in any Request because of rules, regulations, or policies of the Federal Reserve Board, and will have no liability for any direct, consequential, punitive, or indirect loss or damage you may suffer in conjunction with services offered by us which are subject to this agreement.
- Clearpath will not be liable for any failure to complete the Request due to the lack of available funds in your account, circumstances beyond our reasonable control: fire, flood, or other natural disasters, communication interruptions, computer failures, or any inaccuracy or ambiguity in your Request, the actions or omissions of others, or any applicable government rule or regulation.
- All wire transfer requests are subject to reporting guidelines under the Bank Secrecy Act.
FACSIMILE SIGNATURES - You authorize us, at any time, to charge you for all checks, drafts, or other orders, for the payment of money, that are drawn on us regardless of by whom or by what means the facsimile signature(s) may have been affixed so long as they resemble the facsimile signature specimen filed with us, and contain the required number of signatures for this purpose.
ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFERS
YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Indicated below are types of Electronic Fund Transfers we are capable of handling, some of which may not apply to your account. Please read this disclosure carefully because it tells you your rights and obligations for the transactions listed. You should keep this notice for future reference.
Electronic Funds Transfers Initiated By Third Parties. You may authorize a third party to initiate electronic fund transfers between your account and the third party's account. These transfers to make or receive payment may be one-time occurrences or may recur as directed by you. These transfers may use the Automated Clearing House (ACH) or other payments network. Your authorization to the third party to make these transfers can occur in a number of ways. For example, your authorization to convert a check or draft to an electronic fund transfer or to electronically pay a returned check or draft charge can occur when a merchant provides you with notice and you go forward with the transaction (typically, at the point of purchase, a merchant will post a sign and print the notice on a receipt). In all cases, these third party transfers will require you to provide the third party with your account number and credit union information. This information can be found on your check or draft as well as on a deposit or withdrawal slip. Thus, you should only provide your credit union and account information (whether over the phone, the Internet, or via some other method) to trusted third parties whom you have authorized to initiate these electronic fund transfers. Examples of these transfers include, but are not limited to
:
- Preauthorized credits. You may make arrangements for certain direct deposits to be accepted into your checking or savings account(s).
- Preauthorized payments. You may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills from your checking or savings account(s).
- Electronic check or draft conversion. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to make a one-time electronic payment from your checking or share draft account using information from your check or draft to pay for purchases or pay bills.
- Electronic returned check or draft charge. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to initiate an electronic funds transfer to collect a charge in the event a check or draft is returned for insufficient funds.

Please also see Limitations on frequency of transfers section regarding limitations that apply to debit card transactions.
Currency Conversion. When you use your Visa¨-branded Debit Card at a merchant that settles in currency other than US dollars, the charge will be converted into the US dollar amount. The currency conversion rate used to determine the transaction amount in US dollars is either a rate selected by Visa from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the applicable central processing date, which rate may vary from the rate Visa itself receives, or the government-mandated rate in effect for the applicable central processing date.

Health Savings Accounts (HSA). We permit some electronic fund transfers to and/or from your Market HSA. The electronic fund transfers we permit are offered for the convenience of managing your HSA. However, electronically moving funds to or from your HSA can raise a variety of tax concerns. It is your responsibility to ensure the contributions, distributions, and other actions related to your HSA, comply with the law, including federal tax law. As always, we recommend consulting a legal or tax professional if you have any questions about managing your HSA. The terms of this disclosure are intended to work in conjunction with the HSA Agreement provided to you. In the event of a conflict, the terms of the HSA Agreement control. You understand that your HSA is intended to be used for payment of qualified medical expenses. It is your responsibility to satisfy any tax liability resulting from use of your HSA for any purpose other than payment or reimbursement of qualified medical expenses. We do not monitor the purpose of any transaction to or from your HSA. Nor are we responsible for ensuring your eligibility for making contributions or ensuring withdrawals are used for payment or reimbursement of qualified medical expenses. Refer to your HSA Agreement for more information relating to the use of your HSA.
Limitations on frequency of transfers. In addition to those limitations on transfers elsewhere described, if any, the following regulatory limitations apply:
- During any month, you may not make more than six withdrawals or transfers from savings account(s) to another credit union account of yours or to a third party by means of a preauthorized or automatic transfer, computer transfer, or telephonic order or instruction or similar order to a third party. If you exceed the transfer limitations set forth above, your account will be subject to closure by the credit union.
- During any month, you may not make more than six withdrawals or transfers from money market account(s) to another credit union account of yours or to a third party by means of a preauthorized or automatic transfer, computer transfer, or telephonic order or instruction. No more than three of the six transfers may be made by check, draft or similar order to a third party. If you exceed the transfer limitations set forth above, your account will be subject to closure by the credit union.
FEES
- We do not charge for direct deposits to any type of account.
- We do not charge for preauthorized payments from any type of account.
Except as indicated elsewhere, we do not charge for these electronic fund transfers.
ATM Operator/Network Fees. When you use an ATM not owned by us, you may be charged a fee by the ATM operator or any network used (and you may be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete a fund transfer).
ACCOUNT DOCUMENTATION
- Terminal transfers. You can get a receipt at the time you make a transfer to or from your account using an automated teller machine or point-of-sale terminal. However, you may not get a receipt if the amount of the transfer is $15 or less.
- Preauthorized credits. If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your account at least once every 60 days from the same person or company, you can call us at 1-800-433-7328 to find out whether or not the deposit has been made.
You will get a monthly account statement from us for your checking accounts.
You will get a monthly account statement from us for your savings accounts, unless there are no transfers in a particular month. In any case, you will get a statement at least quarterly.
PREAUTHORIZED PAYMENTS
- Right to stop payment and procedure for doing so. If you have told us in advance to make recurring or non-recurring payments out of your account, you can stop any of these payments. Here is how:
Call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure in time for us to receive your request 3 business days or more before the payment is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may also require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after you call.
Please refer to our separate fee schedule for the amount we will charge you for each stop-payment order you give.
- Notice of varying amounts. If these regular payments may vary in amount, the person you are going to pay will tell you, 10 days before each payment, when it will be made and how much it will be. (You may choose instead to get this notice only when the payment would differ by more than a certain amount from the previous payment, or when the amount would fall outside certain limits that you set.)
- Liability for failure to stop payment of preauthorized transfer. If you order us to stop one of these payments 3 business days or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION'S LIABILITY
Liability for failure to make transfers. If we do not complete a transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:
(1) If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
(2) If you have an overdraft line and the transfer would go over the credit limit.
(3) If the automated teller machine where you are making the transfer does not have enough cash.
(4) If the terminal or system was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
(5) If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
(6) There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.
CONFIDENTIALITY
We will disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make:
(1) where it is necessary for completing transfers; or
(2) in order to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant; or
(3) in order to comply with government agency or court orders; or
(4) as explained in the separate Privacy Disclosure.
UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS
(a) Consumer liability.
- Generally. Tell us at once if you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen, or if you believe that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your permission using information from your check or draft. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit). If you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen, and you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or code you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your card and/or code without your permission. Also, if you do NOT tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or code, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card and/or code without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.
Also, if your statement shows transfers made by card, code or other means that you did not make, 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 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 will extend the time periods.
- Limited Liability for Debit/Check Card. Your liability is further limited if your card can be used to initiate a transaction for which you are not required to provide identifying information, such as a Personal Identification Number. You could lose all the money in your account. Your liability for the unauthorized use of your card will be no more than $50 if you notify us of the unauthorized use.
In addition, when used in point-of-sale transactions, and unless you have been grossly negligent or have engaged in fraud, you will not be liable for any unauthorized transactions if your card is lost or stolen. This limit on liability does not apply to ATM transactions or to transactions using your Personal Identification Number which are not processed by VISA.
If you fail to notify us of an unauthorized use that appears on a periodic statement within 60 days of our transmittal of the statement, and we can establish that we could have prevented the unauthorized use if you had notified us within this period, you will be liable for each unauthorized transfer (other than VISA¨ point-of-sale transactions) that occurs after the close of the 60 days and before you give us notice.
If you fail to notify us because of extenuating circumstances beyond your control that contributed to your delay in notifying us, such as a serious physical impairment or hospitalization, this time period may be extended.
(b) Contact in event of unauthorized transfer. If you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen, call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure. You should also call the number or write to the address listed in this brochure if you believe a transfer has been made using the information from your check or draft without your permission.
ERROR RESOLUTION NOTICE
In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Electronic Transfers, Call or Write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure, as soon as you can, if you think your statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the statement or receipt. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared.
(1) Tell us your name and account number (if any).
(2) Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.
(3) 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 in writing within 10 business days.
We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days (5 business days for Visa¨-branded Debit Card point-of-sale transactions and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the transfer involved a new account, a point-of-sale transaction, or a foreign-initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days (5 business days for Visa¨-branded Debit Card point-of-sale transactions and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) 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 we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account. Your account is considered a new account for the first 30 days after the first deposit is made, unless each of you already has an established account with us before this account is opened.
We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation.
You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

NOTICE OF ATM/NIGHT DEPOSIT
FACILITY USER PRECAUTIONS
As with all financial transactions, please exercise discretion when using an automated teller machine (ATM) or night deposit facility. For your own safety, be careful. The following suggestions may be helpful.
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Compare your records with the account statements or account histories that you receive.
4. Don't lend your ATM card to anyone.
5. Remember, do not leave your card at the ATM. Do not leave any documents at a night deposit facility.
6. Protect the secrecy of your Personal Identification Number (PIN). Protect your ATM card as though it were cash. Don't tell anyone your PIN. Don't give anyone information regarding your ATM 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.
7. Prevent others from seeing you enter your PIN by using your body to shield their view.
8. If you lose your ATM 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.
9. 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 lighted. 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.
10. Don't accept assistance from anyone you don't know when using an ATM or night deposit facility.
11. 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, pocket your card and leave. You might consider using another ATM or coming back later.
12. Don't display your cash; pocket it 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.
13. At a drive-up facility, make sure all the car 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.
14. 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.
FUNDS AVAILABILITY POLICY
This policy statement applies to all accounts.
Our policy is to make funds from your cash and check deposits available to you on the first business day after the day we receive your deposit. Electronic direct deposits will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Once the funds are available, you can withdraw them in cash and we will use the funds to pay checks that you have written.
Please remember that even after we have made funds available to you, and you have withdrawn the funds, you are still responsible for checks you deposit that are returned to us unpaid and for any other problems involving your deposit.
For determining the availability of your deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays. If you make a deposit before closing on a business day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit after closing or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open.
If you make a deposit at an ATM before 3:00 P.M. on a business day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit at an ATM after 3:00 P.M. or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open.
If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another bank, we may withhold the availability of a corresponding amount of funds that are already in your account. Those funds will be available at the time funds from the check we cashed would have been available if you had deposited it.
If we accept for deposit a check that is drawn on another bank, we may make funds from the deposit available for withdrawal immediately but delay your availability to withdraw a corresponding amount of funds that you have on deposit in another account with us. The funds in the other account would then not be available for withdrawal until the time periods that are described elsewhere in this disclosure for the type of check that you deposited.
LONGER DELAYS MAY APPLY
Case-by-case delays. In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you on the first business day after the day of your deposit. Depending on the type of check that you deposit, funds may not be available until the fifth business day after the day of your deposit. The first $100 of your deposits, however, may be available on the first business day.
If we are not going to make all of the funds from your deposit available on the first business day, we will notify you at the time you make your deposit. We will also tell you when the funds will be available. If your deposit is not made directly to one of our employees, or if we decide to take this action after you have left the premises, we will mail you the notice by the day after we receive your deposit.
If you will need the funds from a deposit right away, you should ask us when the funds will be available.
Safeguard exceptions. In addition, funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
We believe a check you deposit will not be paid.
You deposit checks totaling more than $5,000 on any one day.
You redeposit a check that has been returned unpaid.
You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months.
There is an emergency, such as failure of computer or communications equipment.
We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, and we will tell you when the funds will be available. They will generally be available no later than the eleventh business day after the day of your deposit.
SPECIAL RULES FOR NEW ACCOUNTS
If you are a new member, the following special rules will apply during the first 30 days your account is open.
Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first $5,000 of a day's total deposits of cashier's, certified, teller's, traveler's, and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the first business day after the day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you (and you may have to use a special deposit slip). The excess over $5,000 will be available on the ninth business day after the day of your deposit. If your deposit of these checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in person to one of our employees, the first $5,000 will not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit.
Funds from all other check deposits will be available on the eleventh business day after the day of your deposit.
DEPOSITS AT AUTOMATED TELLER MACHINES
Funds from any deposits (cash or checks) made at automated teller machines (ATMs) we do not own or operate will not be available until the fifth business day after the day of your deposit. This rule does not apply at ATMs that we own or operate.
All ATMs that we own or operate are identified as our machines.
