Username and Password
Your accounts can only be accessed through Online Banking/Mobile App by the use of a Username and Password. Depending on the features of your Mobile Device, you may be able to sign in through various optional biometric authentication. Biometric authentication is the process of verifying your identity based on your unique characteristics (biometric information), such as your fingerprint or face. Biometric authenticators are not obtained or stored by the credit union for access to Mobile Banking.
You can turn these, and any biometric authentication methods that may be offered in the future, on or off within the Mobile Banking or Mobile Device settings. You acknowledge that by enabling Mobile Banking access by biometric authentication methods, anyone who has biometric access (e.g., fingerprint or facial recognition access) to your device will also be able to sign you in to Mobile Banking and have access to your personal and payment account information.
You agree that if you give biometric access or make available your password or credentials to anyone, you are responsible for all actions taken by anyone to whom you have provided such biometric access or credentials. If you believe someone has gained unauthorized access to your account or your password has been stolen, notify us via one of the contact methods included in these disclosures.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password. The password should be memorized and not written, in order to prevent unauthorized use and so you may report its loss or theft accordingly. You agree that you will not use or allow anyone else to use your password for any transaction that is illegal under applicable federal, state, or local law.
Right to Stop Payment on Share Drafts (Checks) and Preauthorized Transactions and Our Liability for Failure to Stop Payment
