Online Banking Services   In addition to this agreement, you may have a separate agreement for each of your accounts with us. Each account is still subject to those same agreements. If there is any conflict between this agreement and the deposit account agreement regarding the account, then the deposit account agreement takes precedence. Conversely, if there is a conflict between this agreement and the deposit account agreement regarding online banking, then this agreement takes precedence.

Online Banking and Authorized Signers   If an account is owned by more than one person, or has more than one Authorized Signer, each person individually has the right to provide us with instructions, make any decision, obtain any information or make any request associated with the account and related online banking (subject to the extent of the terms and conditions of the account). We may rely and act on those instructions of any such person without having liability to you.

You are responsible for those transactions and will not hold The Bank of Commerce liable for them.

Only after those times will any transactions be considered unauthorized. Business owners may delegate authority to access the system to other employees in their business and may do so, in accordance with the requirements and procedures we provide to you from time to time. We may discontinue offering this option at any time without prior notice.

Access to Services    You will gain access to your Online Accounts through the use of your Internet-enabled device, your ISP, your Password and your User ID.

This same checking account will be used to debit your account for the payments that you initiate.

Electronic Bill Payment Authorization   I AUTHORIZE The Bank of Commerce to post payment transactions generated by PC or other electronic devices, from the Bill Paying Service to the account indicated on the form being sent electronically. I understand that I am in full control of my account. If at any time I decide to discontinue service, I will provide written notification to The Bank of Commerce. My use of the Bill Payment Service signifies that I have read the terms and conditions of the Internet Banking Disclosure and Agreement which have been provided to me electronically by The Bank of Commerce.
I UNDERSTAND that I am responsible for any loss or penalty that I may incur due to the lack of sufficient funds or other conditions that may prevent the withdrawal of funds from my account.
The Online Bill Payment Service permits you to use your Internet enabled device to direct payments from your designated online Bill Payment Account to third parties you wish to pay. Any payments you wish to make through this Service must be payable in U.S. dollars to a payee located in the continental United States. We reserve the right to restrict types of payees to whom payments may be made using the Service from time to time.

Scheduling Payments   Funds must be available in your Bill Payment Account on the scheduled payment date. If the date you schedule a payment to be initiated falls on a nonbusiness day (Saturday, Sunday, or holiday), funds must be available in your Bill Payment Account the following business day (e.g. Monday).

You may choose to schedule payments to recur in the same amount at regular weekly, monthly, or semi-monthly intervals. When you create a new payee in the Bill Payment Service, it takes two (2) business days to set up the payee to receive payments. You should schedule a payment to a new payee at least ten (10) business days before any payment due date, to allow us time to set up the payee and verify information about your account with the payee.

For all subsequent payments, you agree to allow at least three to five business days between the date you schedule a payment to be initiated and the payment due date (that is, the due date shown on your invoice or provided in your agreement with the payee, not taking into account any applicable grace period). If the payment is an Automatic Clearing House (ACH) electronic payment, it will take up to four (4) business days to reach the payee. However, if the company or person that you are paying cannot accept an electronic payment, the Bill Payment Service will send a check that may take up to ten (10) business days. If you do not follow these time frames, you will be fully responsible for all late fees, finance charges or other actions taken by the payee. If you schedule your payment and follow all instructions provided, but the payment is not received by the payee in a timely manner, the Bank will work with the payee on your behalf to reverse any late fees or charges.

The Bank will not be liable in any way for damages you incur for any of the following reasons:

  • Insufficient funds in your Bill Payment Account to make the payment on the processing date
  • Delays in mail delivery

Unauthorized Transfers   (a) Consumer liability. (1) 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. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. (The Bank of Commerce 208-523-2020, 800-477-9193 or MasterCard direct 800-500-1044). You could lose all the money in your account, plus your maximum Ready Reserve Line of Credit. If you tell us within two 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.

If you do NOT tell us within two 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 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 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 period.

(2) Additional Limits on Liability for Debit MasterCard® You will not be liable for any unauthorized transactions using your Debit MasterCard® if: (i) you can demonstrate that you have exercised reasonable care in safeguarding your card from the risk of loss or theft, and (ii) upon becoming aware of a loss theft, you promptly report the loss or theft to us.

Endorsements    Endorsements must be made on the back of the check within 1 ½ inches from the top edge, although we may accept endorsements outside this space.  Your endorsement must include your signature along with the following statement “For Mobile Deposit Only”.  Any loss we incur from a delay or processing error resulting from an irregular endorsement or other markings by you will be your responsibility.  A check payable to two payees must be endorsed by both payees.  If the check is payable to you or your joint owner, either of you can endorse it.  If the check is made payable to you and your joint owner, both of you must endorse the check.  A check payable to two parties without “and” or “/”, may be endorsed by either party.

Receipt of Check Images     We reserve the right to reject any check image transmitted through the Service at our discretion.  We are not responsible for check images we do not receive or for images that are dropped or become corrupted or illegible during transmission.  An image of a check shall be deemed received when you receive an e-mail confirmation from the Bank that we have received the check image.  Receipt of such confirmation does not mean that the transmission was error-free or complete, or that your account will not be charged back for the amount of the deposit and any applicable returned deposited item or other fee under the Terms and Conditions of Your Account if the check image presented is dishonored or returned unpaid for any reason by the financial institution on which it is drawn.

Proper Temporary Storage and Disposal of Original Transmitted Checks     Upon proper clearing of funds and confirmation of your deposit from the Bank, you agree to prominently mark the paper check as “Electronically Presented” or “VOID” and to properly store the paper check to ensure that it is not presented again for payment.  It is prohibited to attempt to re-deposit the check in person or through any other channel or transmit duplicate items.  You agree any check that has been transmitted through the Service will not be presented by you or any person again.  This practice may result in service being discontinued or account closed.  You agree to retain all checks that you have deposited through the Service for at least 30 business days and, following the 30 day retention period, you agree to securely dispose of the paper check in a manner which will ensure the check will not be presented again.  You will promptly provide any retained check, or a sufficient copy of the front and back of the check, to the Bank as requested to aid in the clearing and collection process, to resolve claims by third parties with respect to any check or check image, or for the Bank’s audit purposes.  If you fail to promptly provide the original check or a reasonable copy of the check in response to a request by us, you agree to request a new check for deposit from the check’s originator.  If you fail to provide any copy of a check and cannot obtain a new check from the originator, you agree that we are authorized to debit your account for the amount of the check in question if we deem this action necessary.  You will be solely responsible for any losses incurred as a result of the failure to promptly provide a retained check or replacement check in response to our request.

Returned Deposits    Any credit which we deposit into your account immediately following a deposit initiated by you will be a provisional credit.  If a check that you deposit using the Service is returned or charged back on your account, it will be deducted in full from your account, along with any fees that are incurred due to the check’s rejection as described in our fee schedule and the Terms and Conditions of Your Account.  We are not responsible for any losses incurred as a result of deposits returned on your account.

Funds Availability   You agree that items transmitted using the Service are not subject to the funds availability requirements of Regulation CC.  In most cases funds confirmed as received before 5:00 pm (Mountain Time) of business on a business day will be credited to your account within 24 hours of receipt.  Funds confirmed received after close of business, and confirmed received on holidays or days that are not business days will be credited to your account within 24 hours of the following business day.  Items you deposit today will not appear within online banking and mobile banking until the following business day.

Mobile Deposit Security    You will complete each deposit promptly.  If you are unable to complete your deposit promptly, you will ensure that your mobile device remains securely in your possession until the deposit has been completed.  It is your responsibility to establish and maintain procedures to safeguard against unauthorized deposits.  You will notify us immediately by telephone along with written confirmation if you learn of any loss or theft of original checks.  You will ensure the safety and integrity of original checks from the time of receipt until the time of destruction.  If warranted in our reasonable judgment, we reserve the right to monitor your deposit activity, and you agree to cooperate with us to permit such monitoring, to confirm that you have satisfied your obligations under this Agreement.

Cooperation with Investigations    You agree to cooperate with us in the investigation of unusual transactions, poor quality transmissions, and resolution of customer claims, including by providing, upon request and without further cost, any originals or copies of items in your possession and your records relating to items and transmissions.

Representations and Warranties   You and any user you authorize will use the Service only for lawful purposes and in compliance with all applicable rules and regulations and with our reasonable instructions, rules, policies, specifications, and operating procedures and will not violate any law of any country or the intellectual property rights of any third party.

Your Responsibility    You are solely responsible for the quality, completeness, accuracy, validity and integrity of the image.  You are solely responsible if you, intentionally or unintentionally, submit fraudulent, incorrect or illegible images to us or if Services are used, by authorized or unauthorized persons, to submit fraudulent unauthorized, inaccurate, incorrect or otherwise improper or unusable images to us.

In addition you agree that you will not modify, change, alter, translate, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, disassemble or decompile the technology or Service, copy or reproduce all or any part of the technology or Service; or interfere, or attempt to interfere, with the technology or Service.

Limitation of liability.    You agree that we will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, date or other losses incurred by you or any third party arising from or related to the use of, inability to use, or the termination of the use of any remote banking service, regardless of the form of action or claim (whether contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise), even if we have been informed of the possibility thereof, except as otherwise required by law.

Accountholder’s Indemnification Obligation     You understand and agree that you are required to indemnify us and hold us harmless against any and all claims, actions, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses arising from your use of the Services and/or breach of this Disclosure and Agreement.  You understand and agree that this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Financial Information    You must inform us immediately of any material change in your financial circumstances or in any of the information provided in your Application for any Mobile Deposit Service.  You agree to provide us any financial information we reasonably request during the term of this Agreement.  You authorize us to review your history from time to time.

You agree to notify us immediately if you change your e-mail address and that your notification will be made by following our procedures for updating personal information.  You understand that the e-mail address that we have on file for you is the address where we will send you notification of receipt of transactions as well as any other information about the Service we deem necessary to communicate to you.  We are not responsible for any losses incurred as a result of you not receiving or otherwise not reading notifications or confirmations we send to you.
