Account history information for deposit accounts is generally available online for the previous statement cycle and the current statement cycle, and for loan accounts for the previous and current year, month and day. g. Joint Accounts If two or more people hold a joint account, there are two ways for them to enroll for PasskeyBanker services. First, each account holder may enroll separately, and each will have his or her own password and his or her own separate Online Access Agreement. For PasskeyBanker services, each joint account holder could have his or her own account history set up in the categories he or she establishes. The joint account holders will have access to and share the account history for their jointly held accounts, but they will not share access to any accounts that are separately held. Each joint account holder may perform transactions, obtain information, terminate his or her Online Access Agreement or transact business, take actions or perform transactions permitted under this Agreement. The Bank may rely on the instructions of any joint account holder who has PasskeyBanker password access to the joint account. The Bank is not required to obtain the consent of or give notice to the other joint account holder(s). A joint account holder will not be permitted to gain access to any accounts other than accounts for which he or she is a sole or joint owner. Alternatively, one holder of a joint account may enroll for PasskeyBanker services with one password.

PasskeyBanker will require you to immediately change this initial password to continue on in the system. For added security, the password is sensitive to upper and lower case letters. For this reason, it is very important to remember your selected password. Your online password will give you access to your accounts through PasskeyBanker and we are entitled to act on instructions received under that password. This password can be changed within PasskeyBanker. For security reasons, we recommend that you change your online password regularly, that you memorize your password and that you do not write it down or give it to anyone. You agree to keep your password and account data confidential to prevent unauthorized access to your account and to prevent unauthorized transactions on your accounts. Commercial/Non-Personal-In order to gain access to your accounts via PasskeyBanker, a user must enter your access I. D. number and the confidential password that you select as described above. You are responsible for keeping those numbers confidential. You also agree that requiring use of your access I. D. number and confidential password to access PasskeyBanker is appropriate to your business operations and environment and constitutes a commercially reasonable security procedure. Commercial/Non-Personal-You agree to divulge your password only to persons who are authorized users on the accounts, as reflected in your Corporate Resolution (or similar authorization for non-corporate entities). Your password can be changed within PasskeyBanker. For security reasons, we recommend that you change your online password regularly, and in all events whenever there is a change in authorized users of the accounts.

Payment AccountAlthough there are no fees at this time for accessing your accounts via PasskeyBanker, you may be asked to designate a payment account for selected services such as Bill Payment, or for payment of any PasskeyBanker fees and charges should the Bank decide to impose such fees and charges in the future. You agree to pay promptly all fees and charges for services provided under this Agreement, and authorize us to charge the account that you have designated as the payment account, or any other account, for such fees and charges. If you close the payment account, you must notify us and identify a new payment account for the selected services. If you fail to designate a new payment account, we may charge any other account (including a loan account to the extent there are no funds available in a deposit account). Additionally, if you close all your accounts, you must notify Customer Service immediately to cancel your PasskeyBanker services. We may cancel your PasskeyBanker services at any time without prior notice due to insufficient funds in one of your accounts.

In order to request reinstatement of your services, you must call Customer Service at 802-748-3196. These cancellation rights are in addition to those contained in Section 17. 6. Your ResponsibilitiesSelection, use and dissemination of your password is at your own risk. You should not furnish your password to anyone who is not an authorized user on your accounts. If, despite Passumpsic Savings Bank’s advice, you give your password to anyone, you do so at your own risk. Anyone to whom you give your password will have full access to your accounts, even if you attempt to limit that person’s authority. The Bank is not responsible for establishing the identity of any person using your password or otherwise confirming that they are an authorized user. You must notify the Bank immediately if your password is lost, stolen or compromised. Other provisions relating to your responsibilities to notify us in certain instances are set forth in Section 13 of this Agreement. You will be bound by all actions taken and charges incurred by any authorized user pursuant to this Agreement. You are responsible for paying any applicable fees if there are insufficient funds in your account, or if you provide incorrect or inaccurate information. You are liable for all transactions that you make or authorize, or for all transactions that any of you make or authorize if you are using a joint account, even if the person you authorize exceeds his or her authority. a. Release and Indemnification You hereby release Passumpsic Savings Bank, its subsidiaries and other affiliates from any and all liability - and you agree not to make a claim or bring any action against the Bank or any of its subsidiaries and affiliates - for honoring or allowing any actions or transaction by a person or authorized user to whom you have allowed account access, whether that person is a joint account holder or any other person who has gained access to your password. You indemnify and agree to hold harmless Passumpsic Savings Bank, its subsidiaries and other affiliates and the supplier of the software for Passumpsic Savings Bank’s online banking service from and against any and all claims, losses, liability, cost and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your violation or breach of this Agreement or of any third party rights, including copyrights, proprietary and privacy rights, or any applicable federal, state or local law, regulation or ordinance. Your obligation under this Section will survive termination of this Agreement. b. Screen Scrapers and Information Aggregators You should be aware of a practice commonly known as
“screen scraping” or “information aggregation” whereby so-called “information
aggregators” make available to their customers An information aggregator, or “screen scraper,” instead gives Ms. Doe the option to view and manage all of her online accounts held by the various banking, securities, insurance and lending entities in one place - on the aggregator’s web site. Often, the composite information from the various entities is reformatted to the information aggregator’s standards. To make this possible, the information aggregator will ask you for your user ID and password for the various online accounts you wish to view on the information aggregator’s web site. If you give the information aggregator this information, you do so at your own risk. Passumpsic Savings Bank cannot verify the identity of the person gaining access to your account with your user ID and password, whether that person is you, an authorized user, or another individual to whom - despite the Bank’s advice - you have given your password, or an information aggregator. Passumpsic Savings Bank, its subsidiaries and other affiliates will not be liable for the consequences if you share your password and account information with others. Passumpsic Savings Bank’s privacy policies protect customers’ nonpublic personal information. If you choose to give your password and account information to a screen scraper or information aggregator, you should consider whether that person or company will protect your nonpublic personal information to the same extent that Passumpsic Savings Bank will. You should read carefully the screen scraper’s or aggregator’s terms and conditions of service before you subscribe for its services. Passumpsic Savings Bank is not responsible for the actions or practices, including information sharing practices, of any screen scraper or aggregator. Passumpsic Savings Bank reserves the right to monitor your PasskeyBanker usage. We may terminate your PasskeyBanker service if we have reason to believe an information aggregator or screen scraper is gaining access to your accounts. c. Computer Performance Passumpsic Savings Bank, its subsidiaries and other affiliates assume no responsibility and disclaim any and all liability for loss or damage associated with the functionality or operation of your computer, your connection to the PasskeyBanker service, your browser software or your Internet service provider’s services or performance, including loss or damage arising out of computer viruses. 7. Limited LiabilityPassumpsic Savings Bank agrees to make reasonable
efforts to ensure performance of PasskeyBanker. We will be responsible for
acting only on those instructions sent through PasskeyBanker which are actually
received and cannot assume responsibility for malfunctions in communications
facilities not under our control that may affect the accuracy or timeliness Passumpsic Savings Bank’s liability is also limited as described in Sections 6 and 13. Without limiting the generality of the previous two paragraphs and except as specifically otherwise provided in this Online Access Agreement or where the law requires different standards, you agree that neither we nor our service providers (including without limitation, any third party payment agents of the Bank with respect to the bill payment feature of PasskeyBanker) will be responsible for any loss, property damage or bodily injury, whether caused by the equipment, software, the Bank, OR by any Internet browser providers such as Netscape (Netscape Navigator browser) and Microsoft (Microsoft Explorer browser), OR by Internet access providers OR by online service providers OR by an agent or subcontractor of any of the foregoing, nor shall we or the service providers be responsible for any direct, indirect, special or consequential, economic or other damages arising in any way out of the installation, use or maintenance of the equipment, software, the Online Services, or Internet browser or access software or arising out of any computer virus or unauthorized access to or alteration of the PasskeyBanker program. NEITHER PASSUMPSIC SAVINGS BANK, ANY SUBSIDIARY OR OTHER AFFILIATE OR SERVICING AGENT OF THE BANK, ANY TRANSMISSION OR INTERNET ACCESS PROVIDER NOR ANY SOFTWARE SUPPLIER, MAKES ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES CONCERNING PASSKEYBANKER SOFTWARE OR SERVICES OR BROWSER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY PROPRIETARY RIGHTS UNLESS DISCLAIMING SUCH WARRANTIES IS PROHIBITED BY LAW. IN NO EVENT WILL PASSUMPSIC SAVINGS BANK OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR OTHER AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. 8. Days and Hours of Accessibility; Cut Off Time for TransactionsYou can access your accounts through PasskeyBanker seven days a week, 24 hours a day. However, at certain times, some or all of the PasskeyBanker online services may not be available due to system maintenance. During these times, you may use a Passumpsic Savings Bank ATM or (if during regular business hours) a bank branch to conduct your transactions; however, the bill payment feature may not be available. A transfer initiated through PasskeyBanker by 5:00 p. m. (Eastern Time)
on a business day is posted to your account the same day. All transfers
completed after 5:00 p. m. (Eastern Time) Every day is a business day except Saturdays, Sundays and federal holidays. 9. Maintaining Sufficient Available Funds; OverdraftsYou are responsible for maintaining at all times sufficient available funds in your accounts to cover all debits or withdrawals, in whatever form, including those made through PasskeyBanker. Uncollected funds in your payment account are not considered as part of the available balance until the funds have cleared. If we receive requests of any kind for debits from
your account, whether or not received via PasskeyBanker Bill Payment, check,
ATM transaction or otherwise, and there are not enough available funds in the
account to cover all the requests, we reserve the right to pay or decline to
pay any such items and to decide the order in which they are paid, unless
otherwise required 10. Limits on Certain TransfersYour ability to transfer funds between and/or make payments from certain accounts is limited by law, as described in the General Terms and Conditions for such accounts. You may make up to a total of 6 pre-authorized, automatic or telephone transfers or payments per statement cycle from your Non-PersonalSavings or Money Market Accounts to other accounts or third parties. Transfers and payments from Non-Personal Savings and Money Market Accounts made through PasskeyBanker are counted against the permissible number of transfers or payments. If a hold has been placed on deposits made to an account from which you wish to transfer funds, you cannot transfer the portion of the funds held until the hold expires. 11. Changes to Charges, Fees or Other TermsWe reserve the right to change the charges, fees or other terms described or incorporated into this Online Access Agreement. When changes are made to any fees, charges, or other material terms, we will update this Online Access Agreement and either send a paper notice to you at the address shown on our records, or send you an electronic mail message (E-mail). The notice will be posted or sent at least thirty (30) days in advance of the effective date of any additional fees for online transactions, or of any stricter limits on the type, amount or frequency of the transactions or any increase in your responsibility for unauthorized transactions, unless in our reasonable judgment an immediate change is necessary to maintain the security of the system. If such a change is made, and it can be disclosed without jeopardizing the security of the system, we will provide you with electronic or written notice within thirty (30) days after the change. As always, you may choose to accept or decline changes by continuing or discontinuing the accounts or services to which these changes relate. Your continued use of PasskeyBanker after we notify you of a change will signify your acceptance of the change. We also reserve the sole discretion, in our business judgment, to waive, reduce or reverse charges or fees in individual situations. Changes to the fees and charges on your accounts will also be governed by the applicable General Terms and Conditions for those accounts. 12. Disclosure of Account Information; Your Consent to DisclosureYou authorize the Bank to disclose to third parties (whether or not affiliated with the Bank) information you have provided or that we or our subsidiaries or other affiliates have obtained about your accounts with us and the transfers you make:
Except as otherwise prohibited by law, by enrolling for PasskeyBanker you expressly agree that Passumpsic Savings Bank may share with its subsidiaries and other affiliates the information about you that you provide, or that Passumpsic Savings Bank obtains as a result of your transactions or other account activity, for, among other things, the purpose of offering you products and services that we believe may be of interest to you. You agree that Passumpsic Savings Bank may download certain information about you, including customer identification information, to your computer or other access device. This is known as an Internet “cookie. ” You can disable this feature on your Internet browser if you so choose. 13. Electronic Funds Transfer Notices (Does not apply to Commercial/Non-Personal Accounts)PasskeyBanker enables you to transfer funds to or from your eligible Passumpsic Savings Bank accounts. The federal Electronic Funds Transfer Act provides you with certain rights and responsibilities with respect to such transfers, called “Electronic Funds Transfers. ” Before you complete your first electronic funds transfer using PasskeyBanker, you must read this section which explains your rights and responsibilities under the Electronic Funds Transfer Act. a. Questions or Error Correction on PasskeyBanker Banking and Bill Payment Transactions In case of questions or errors about online funds transfers or bill payments made through PasskeyBanker, you should do one of the following as soon as possible:
We must hear from you no later than sixty (60) days after we have sent the first paper or online statement on which the problem or error appeared. By contacting us, you will not be liable for unauthorized transfers or withdrawals that occurred during the 60-day period, except for transfers and withdrawals resulting from lost or stolen password as described below in subsection b. If you don’t contact us within this 60-day time period, you could be held responsible for all unauthorized transfers and withdrawals that occurred between the end of the 60-day period and the time you actually notified us, and if the transaction could have been prevented if we had been notified. Naturally, we may extend the time periods if you were prevented from contacting us for a good reason (such as a long trip or hospital stay). If you notify us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business days. When you tell us about the problem, please:
We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days (20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) after we hear from you, and we will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 calendar days (90 calendar 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 provisionally credit your account within 10 business days (20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not provisionally credit your account while we complete our investigation. We will tell you the results of our investigation within three business days after we complete our investigation. If we decide that there was not an error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents used in our investigation. b. Unauthorized Use of Your Password Be sure to keep your online password to yourself; this number is an important means of protection for you. Don’t write it on your personal computer or any computer materials, or any other access device. Contact a Customer Service Representative at 1-800-370-3196 (or 748-3196 for local calls in the St. Johnsbury, Vermont area) immediately if you believe than an unauthorized person has obtained access to your online password.
