ONLINE BANKING - Personal User Agreement

I. Introduction
The First National Bank of Santa Fe is pleased to offer you the convenience of 24-hour banking through First National Bank of Santa Fe‘s Personal Online Banking and Business Online Banking. In this Agreement we will use the words “FNB Online” to refer to both the Personal Online Banking and Business Online Banking services. When you log in to FNB Online, you acknowledge that you have received and understand the terms of this Online Banking FNB Online Agreement (“Agreement”) and agree to be bound by these terms. Please read this agreement and disclosure statement carefully because it tells you about your rights and responsibilities for Electronic Funds Transfer transactions processed using FNB Online. You should keep this Agreement and disclosure statement for future reference.

We may amend this Agreement from time to time and notice of such change will be provided to you by us as may be required by applicable law.

This Agreement contains the terms that govern your use of FNB Online. You may use FNB Online to access your Eligible Accounts (defined in section II of this Agreement) through the Internet. You may also use FNB Online to access a number of Online Financial FNB services (defined in section V of this Agreement) through the Internet.

By using FNB Online to access Eligible Account or Online Financial services you are agreeing to the terms of this Agreement. In this Agreement, the words:

“we,” “us,” “our” and “Bank” are used to refer to The First National Bank of Santa Fe;

“you” or “your” is used to refer to the owner of an Eligible Account or an authorized representative;

“consumer” is used to refer to a natural person who owns an Eligible Account with respect to which an Online Financial Service is requested primarily for personal, family or household purposes;

“business” is used to refer to anyone other than a consumer who owns an Eligible Account with respect to which an Online Financial Service is requested;

"business days" means every day except Saturday, Sunday and federal holidays; and

“authorized representative” is used to refer to a person with authority of any kind with respect to an Eligible Account or an Online Financial Transaction.

Waiver of Requirement for Two Signatures. You recognize that any requirement of verifying two signatures on checks, if such a requirement exists, does not apply to electronic or telephone transfers, including online bill payments, and release Bank from liability when making such transfers or payments. This means that any person who is authorized to act as a signer on your account shall be authorized by you to individually make electronic or telephonic transfers, including online bill payments from your account, even though that person’s authority to transfer or withdraw funds from your account by some other means (e.g., by check) must be exercised jointly with one or more other persons.
 
II. Eligible Accounts
Each Bank product you have with us that you enroll in FNB Online is called an “Eligible Account”. Examples of products that you may elect to enroll as Eligible Accounts include deposit accounts and loan products.
Your Eligible Accounts will continue to be subject to the agreements otherwise governing them, except where it is noted in this Agreement. Additionally, each Eligible Account and Online Financial FNB Online will be subject to the following:

  • the terms or instructions appearing on a screen when using FNB Online;
  • Bank’s rules, procedures and policies applicable to each Eligible Account and each Online Financial Service;
  • the rules and regulations of any funds transfer system used in connection with an Online Financial Service; and
  • applicable state and federal laws and regulations.
     

III. Access to Eligible Accounts
You authorize the Bank to provide access to some or all Eligible Accounts through FNB Online. For each Eligible Account to which access is provided, you may request removal of such access by sending an E-mail through FNB Online or by calling Bank Customer Service at 505-992-2000.

You may access an Eligible Account at the Bank’s website at https://www.FNB-SF.com (called the “Website”) to obtain balances, transaction history and other information. To access an Eligible Account or use an Online Financial Service you must have a password and the required hardware and software. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and any technical difficulties or delays that may occur, you will generally be able to access your Eligible Accounts through the Website seven days a week, 24 hours a day. A transfer completed through FNB Online before the transfer cutoff time on a business day will be posted to your Eligible Account the same day. All transfers completed after the transfer cutoff time on a business day or on a day that is not a business day, will be posted on the next business day. The transfer cutoff time is 5:00PM (Mountain Time).

At certain times, FNB Online may not be available due to system maintenance or circumstances beyond our control. During these times, if it is available, you may use our telephone banking FNB Online, a Bank automated teller machine (“ATM”) or a Bank branch to obtain information about your Eligible Accounts.
 
IV. Electronic Mail (E-mail)
One way of communicating with us is by sending an e-mail. FNB Online has provided a secure e-mail form for you to ask questions about your account(s) or give comments on FNB Online. This form can be found within FNB Online under Secure Support. To ensure the security of your Eligible Account information, we recommend that you use only this e-mail form when asking specific questions about your Eligible Account(s). You cannot use e-mail to initiate transactions on your Eligible Accounts. For transactions, please use the appropriate functions within FNB Online or call -505-992-2000. If you send us an e-mail, we will be deemed to have received it on the following business day. The Bank will have a reasonable time to act on your e-mail.
You agree that the Bank may respond to you by e-mail with regard to any matter related to FNB Online, including responding to any claim of unauthorized electronic funds transfer that you make. Any such electronic mail sent to you by Bank shall be considered received within three (3) days of date sent by Bank, regardless of whether or not you sign on to the website. Secure e-mail transmissions will be sent back through FNB Online.
 
V. Online Financial Services
You may use FNB Online to obtain such products and services as are then available through FNB Online as then disclosed at the Website. With respect to your Eligible Accounts, this includes obtaining account information, transaction history and other information. In addition you may use Online banking to transfer funds among your Eligible Accounts. Note: Because regulations require Bank to limit preauthorized transfers (including Online Banking transfers), the following limitations apply:

a) Statement savings account. You can make no more than six transfers per statement period without incurring a fee. The Online Banking will not prohibit you from making another transfer if six have already been made in the current statement period, but you will be assessed a fee.

b) Money market checking account. You can make no more than six transfers per statement period by preauthorized or automatic transfer or by telephone or Online Banking and no more than three of these may be by check, draft or debit card. FNB Online will not prohibit you from making another transfer if six have already been made in the current statement period, but you will be assessed a fee.
In some instances, balances and transaction history may only reflect activity conducted through the close of the previous business day. We may, from time to time, introduce new Online Financial Services. When this happens we will update our Website to include them. By using an Online Financial Service, you agree to be bound by the terms contained in this Agreement at that time.
 
VI. Linked Eligible Accounts
Eligible Accounts that are linked together will appear together. This means, for example, that when an authorized representative of an Eligible Account accesses FNB Online that authorized representative will be able to view and access at a single time the following accounts:

• the accounts of the business for which that person is an authorized representative;
• the accounts of any other business for which that person is an authorized representative; and
• any consumer accounts for which the person is a co-owner or authorized signer.
 
VII. Authorized Representatives for Business Accounts
If you are a business, any authorized representative of your business is authorized on such terms, conditions, and agreements as we may from time to time require to:

• enter into this Agreement, as amended from time to time;
• access each Eligible Account of yours in any manner and for any purpose available through FNB Online, whether now available or available at some time in the future; and
• use any Online Financial Service in any manner and for any purpose available through FNB Online whether now available or available at some time in the future
 
VIII. Electronic Fund Transfer Provisions For Consumers

A. Applicability. The provisions in this section apply only to electronic fund transfers that debit or credit a consumer’s checking, savings or other asset account and are subject to the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation E (an “EFT”). The Bank may, when applicable, rely on any exceptions to the provisions in this section that are contained in Regulation E. All terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement which are defined in Regulation E will have the same meaning when used in this section.

B. Your Liability. Your liability for an unauthorized EFT or a series of related unauthorized EFTs will be determined as follows:
1. If you notify us within two business days after learning of the loss or theft of your password, your liability will not exceed the lesser of $50 or the amount of unauthorized transfers that occur before notice to us.

2. If you fail to notify us within two business days after learning of the loss or theft of your password, your liability will not exceed the lesser of (i) $500 or (ii) the sum of (a) $50 or the amount of unauthorized transfers that occur within the two business days, whichever is less, and (b) the amount of unauthorized transfers that occur after the close of two business days and before notice to us, provided we establish that these transfers would not have occurred had you notified us within that two-day period.

3. You must report an unauthorized EFT that appears on a periodic statement within 60 days of our transmittal of the statement to avoid liability for subsequent transfers. If you fail to do so, your liability will not exceed the amount of the unauthorized EFTs that occur after the close of the 60 days and before notice to us, and that we establish would not have occurred had you notified us within the 60-day period. You may, as applicable, also be liable for the amounts described in the immediately preceding sections 1 or 2 above.

4. If your delay in notifying us was due to extenuating circumstances, we will extend the times specified in the immediately preceding paragraphs 1, 2 or 3 above to a reasonable period.

5. You may notify us in person, by telephone, by e-mail during a Secure Support session using the appropriate form, or in writing. Emails not sent from the Secure Support site will not constitute notice for the purpose of notifying us of an unauthorized transfer.

C. Telephone Number and Addresses. The telephone number and address of the person or office to be notified when you believe that an unauthorized EFT has been or may be made are:
• 1-505-992-2000 Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., excluding federal holidays.
• First National Bank of Santa Fe , Attention: FNB Online Banking, PO Box 609, Santa Fe, NM 87504

2. A description of the error or the transfer in question and an explanation concerning why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.
3. The dollar amount of the suspected error and date on which it occurred.

E. Stop Payment Policy.
You may stop payment of a preauthorized electronic fund transfer from your Eligible Accounts by notifying us orally or in writing at least three business days before the scheduled date of the transfer. We require you to give written confirmation of an oral stop-payment order within 14 days of oral notification. Confirmation must be sent to First National Bank of Santa Fe , Attention: FNB Online Banking, PO Box 609, Santa Fe, NM 87504, or you can send an e-mail to the Bank Online Customer Service area by filling out the appropriate e-mail form using the Secure Support tab accessible after signing on with your password to a secure session. Emails not sent from the Secure Support site will not constitute notice for the purpose of providing written confirmation of an oral stop payment order. An oral stop-payment order ceases to be binding after 14 days if the consumer fails to provide the required written confirmation.

F. Documentation.
Unless more frequent reporting is required by the terms of your Eligible Accounts, we will send a periodic statement for each monthly cycle in which an electronic fund transfer has occurred; and shall send a periodic statement at least quarterly if no transfer has occurred; provided, however, that for passbook accounts that may be accessed only by preauthorized transfers to the account, we need not provide a periodic statement if we update the passbook upon presentation or enter on a separate document the amount and date of each electronic fund transfer since the passbook was last presented; and, further provided that for other accounts that may be accessed only by preauthorized transfers to the account, we will provide a report no less frequently than quarterly.

When we initiate preauthorized electronic fund transfers to your Eligible Account at least once every 60 days, we will provide notice by: (i) providing oral or written notice of the transfer within two business days after the transfer occurs, (ii) providing oral or written notice, within two business days after the date on which the transfer was scheduled to occur, that the transfer did not occur, or (iii) providing a readily available telephone line that you may call to determine whether the transfer occurred and disclosing the telephone number on the initial disclosure of account terms and on each periodic statement. If we receive a preauthorized transfer, we will credit the amount of the transfer as of the date the funds for the transfer are received. Preauthorized electronic fund transfers from your Eligible Account may be authorized only by a writing signed or similarly authenticated by the consumer. The person that obtains the authorization shall provide a copy to you.
When a preauthorized electronic fund transfer from your Eligible Account will vary in amount from the previous transfer under the same authorization or from the preauthorized amount, the designated payee or we will send you written notice of the amount and date of the transfer at least 10 days before the scheduled date of transfer.

If you are approved for our ACH FNB Online Service, you agree to comply with the Operating Rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA) (collectively, the “Rules”), as amended from time to time.

You may initiate ACH debit entries only with the prior written authorization of the persons whose accounts are affected by such entries. You agree to maintain a copy of each authorization for a period of two (2) years following its termination, and to provide us with a copy upon request. You will not submit ACH debit entries to collect funds for checks or other paper items which have been dishonored and returned for any reason, even if such represented check entries are permitted under the Rules.

You agree to maintain sufficient collected and available funds in your account for a period of two (2) business days prior to the settlement date to cover the amount of your transfers, as well as returned or reversed debit entries, adjustments, and other amounts owed to us under this Service. We may refuse an entry if there are not sufficient collected and available funds in your account on the date we initiate the transaction (up to two (2) business days before an ACH settlement date) or on the settlement date. We will notify you of such refusal electronically, in writing, by telephone, or otherwise no later than two (2) business days after the date the transaction was to be effected. We are not required to pay you interest on a rejected entry for the period from refusal of the entry to your receipt of the notice of refusal. If an entry is returned by the ACH, we may submit the entry back to you, adjust your account, and await further instructions. We may remake such entry, however, if the return is due to our error and we have sufficient data to remake the entry. You agree to retain and provide us with the necessary information to make such entries until midnight of the third business day following the settlement date.

Credit for an ACH transfer is provisional until the receiving financial institution obtains final settlement. If final settlement doesn’t occur, the originator of the transfer is not deemed to have made payment to the beneficiary, and the beneficiary’s bank is entitled to a refund of the provisional credit.

For security purposes, it is recommended that you memorize the password and do not write it down. You are responsible for keeping your password and Eligible Account information confidential.
