Any online transactions, including but not limited to accessing account information, making transfers, stop payments, initiated by person(s) on behalf of a commercial customer by entering the correct Access ID and Password is deemed as acting with full authority of the Board of Directors, members or general partners, as applicable, to the commercial customer. Each time you access account information, make transfers or stop payments you will be required to enter the Access ID and Password.

If your Access ID and/or Password is lost or stolen, or is known by another individual, you must notify us immediately. Quickly telephoning us is the best way of reducing your possible losses.

To further protect you, a timeout feature is used. This feature will automatically disconnect your current financial access after a 10-minute period of inactivity on our site.

Peoples bank has implemented a security procedure for the purpose of verifying the authenticity of the payment instructions transmitted to us by you, and not for the purpose of detecting errors in such instructions. These include, but are not limited to, a Secure Sockets layer (SSL), digital certificates and strong encryption along with built-in checkpoints and audit controls to provide multi-tiered security architecture to protect our customer database from outside intrusion and fraudulent activity. Your acceptance of this Agreement implies that this procedure constitutes a commercially reasonable method of providing security against unauthorized instructions. You agree to be bound by any instruction issued by you and received and verified by Bank in accordance with such security procedure, and you shall indemnify and hold us harmless from and against any loss suffered or liability incurred by, or arising from, the execution of instructions in good faith and in compliance with such security procedure.

Peoples Bank requires the use of browsers such as Microsoft and Netscape (readily available for download from their respective websites) that provide encryption using a 128-bit key in order to provide the highest level of confidentiality and security. Higher levels of encryption prevent unauthorized attempts by hackers and Bank requires that customers protect their valuable information by using the most secure encryption possible.

   3. in order to comply with government agency or court orders; or
   4. if you give us written permission

Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers
If your statement shows transfers 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.

If we complete a transfer that you make or authorize and we subsequently learn that you have insufficient funds for the transaction, you agree that we may reverse the transaction or offset the shortage with funds from any account you have with us. In any case, you are fully obligated to us to provide sufficient funds for any transfers you make or authorize.

However, if the Bank elects, in the Bank’s sole discretion, to make a transfer, which exceeds the funds available in such account(s), such transfer will be subject to the Bank’s current fee for non-sufficient funds processing.
