You hereby authorize us to process and execute any and all requests, payment orders, or other transactions initiated by you through Online Banking Services. The following are the types of Online Banking Services we may provide under this Agreement:
5.1. Online Account Services. We may allow you to obtain an overview and history of your Connected Accounts with our Online Account Services. You may also view recent online and other account activity for your Connected Accounts and send secure messages to us requesting account information or making other inquiries. Other features we may offer through Online Account Services are allowing you to change your address on file with us, order and re-order checks, change the way information is displayed through Online Banking Services, change your password and login information, and set automated alerts for certain events occurring with respect to your Connected Accounts.
We may also allow you to download information regarding Connected Accounts to your systems for use with your third party financial management software such as Quicken® or Microsoft Money®. Please note, we cannot control and are not responsible for such information or your use or storage of such information after downloading from our systems.
Information you obtain about your Connected Accounts using our Online Banking Services may not reflect transactions that have not yet been posted to your accounts. You should keep that in mind when you perform or attempt to perform any transactions on the basis of such information.
5.2. Stop Payment Services. We may allow you to initiate stop payment requests through our Online Banking Services. You may place a stop payment on any check you have written or electronic transfer item you have initiated that that has not already been processed by us for payment. The information on the stop payment request must precisely identify the check number, the date, the payee and the amount of the check. In the instance a series of checks are missing, you must precisely identify the beginning check number and the ending check number in the series of checks that are missing. If you do not give complete, exact information, we assume no responsibility for stopping payment. You acknowledge that a stop payment request is not effective immediately upon our receipt but must be received in time to give us a reasonable time to act upon it. If the item is an electronic transfer (ACH or otherwise), we must receive this notice at least three (3) Business Days preceding the scheduled date for the payment of the item. We cannot stop payment on an electronic fund transfer resulting from a point of sale transaction. Stop payments received on a Business Day are intended to be processed on the following Business Day on which it may be received. Stop payment requests received on a non-Business Day will be processed on the next Business Day. A stop payment request for a check must be received before the check has been presented for payment. A stop payment order is effective for six (6) months. If a longer period of time is desired, a new stop payment request is to be submitted online or in writing before the expiration of the six (6) months. If the stop payment request is not received before the expiration of six (6) months, it will automatically terminate, and the Bank is free to pay the check or other item. In such an instance, you hereby agree to waive any and all claims against us with respect to the stop payment request or the check or other item itself and you further agree to indemnify and hold us harmless with regard to any and all claims involving the stop payment request and the applicable check or other item. You agree to pay a stop payment fee for each new stop payment request and each new request of a stop payment processed through Online Banking Services, as disclosed in the Schedule of Fees agreement provided at account opening.
To stop a payment, you may also call or write us at the phone number or address listed in the Section titled “Notice”, or by using any electronic stop payment method which we provide for this purpose. If you call or write, you must do this in time for us to receive your request three (3) Business Days or more before the transfer is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may also require you to put your request in writing and have it delivered to us within fourteen (14) days after you call.
By using Stop Payment Services, you acknowledge and agree that Stop Payment Services are not intended to be used for and shall not be used for the cancellation of payments processed or to be processed through Bill Pay Services. You agree that (a) you shall not initiate any stop payment request for any point of sale transaction or electronic item processed or to be processed through Bill Pay Services and that (b) if you desire to cancel any transaction initiated through Bill Pay Services, you will initiate such cancellation through Bill Pay Services within the timeframes required with respect to Bill Pay Services. In the event a stop payment request is initiated for a point of sale transaction or electronic item processed or to be processed through Bill Pay Services and such item is paid by us, we shall have no liability for such payment, and you hereby authorize us to collect from any Customer Account, the amount of any such items paid.
5.3. Funds Transfer Services. This Section applies to internal funds transfers to and from accounts held with us and to external funds transfers to or from accounts held with other depository institutions. To the extent we make them available, you authorize us to establish preauthorized recurring fund transfers and one-time funds transfers in accordance with the request that is made. We may reject preauthorized recurring fund transfers that vary in amount. You must have enough available money or credit in any account from which you instruct us to make a transfer. All transfers must be in U.S. Dollars.
If any Connected Accounts are money market deposit accounts or savings deposit accounts, certain types of withdrawals from those accounts, including payments and transfers, are limited for any specified period. The specified period for money market deposit accounts is the monthly statement period. The specified period for savings deposit accounts is a calendar month. The kinds of withdrawals covered by this limitation are those made by means of preauthorized or automatic transfers and payments or telephone agreement, order or instruction. A limit on the total number of these kinds of withdrawals may be made by check, draft, debit card, or similar order payable to third parties.
Transfers are not final at the time we receive your instructions, but we will begin to process them each day at 4pm Central Time. You should allow at least one (1) Business Day for the transfer to post to your account(s). Please note that for external fund transfers, the time for completion and posting of the transfer may be extended due to processing times and delays by other financial institutions and intermediaries and for transfers to other countries. We will not be responsible for any delay regarding a funds transfer due to any processing time or delay of other financial institutions and intermediaries or relating to a transfer of funds to another country.
Each transfer will be posted to any Customer Account from which it is initiated, and to any other Customer Account that is involved in the transaction, on the Business Day on which the transfer is completed. Each transfer you make on a non-Business Day, or after our online banking cut-off time on any Business Day, will be considered initiated on the following Business Day. Our online banking cut-off time is 7:00 p.m. Central Time.
If you want to change transfers you have instructed us to make, you must notify us before we have started processing the transaction. This applies to both individual transactions as well as preauthorized recurring transactions. The normal way to do this is for you to access the appropriate function in our Online Banking Services no later than the day before the Business Day the transfer is scheduled to be made, and either delete it or make the change.
You may also call or write us at the phone number or address listed in the Section titled “Notice”, or by using any method which we provide for changing transfers. If you call or write, you must do this in time for us to receive your request three (3) Business Days or more before the transfer is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may also require you to put your request in writing and have it delivered to us within fourteen (14) days after you call.

By Connecting an external account, you authorize us to initiate ACH debit or credit entries to such external account. By Connecting an external account, you also certify that you are an owner or authorized on the external account with unlimited withdrawal or deposit rights on the depository institution’s records, to originate transfers to or from the account. Upon our request, you agree to provide us written documentation of your ownership of or unlimited authority regarding such external Connected Accounts, as applicable, and any other information we deem necessary or desirable regarding such external Connected Accounts. You are required to notify us if any external Connected Account is closed or your withdrawal rights are limited or removed so such external Connected Account may be un-Connected from Online Banking Services. You acknowledge that all transactions involving external Connected Accounts must comply with Applicable Law. The offsetting entries for any transfer to or from an external Connected Account must be made to or from a Connected Customer Account. Transfers between external Connected Accounts are prohibited.

You may make such election by logging into Online Banking Services, accessing the “Documents” section and then the “E-Statement” form, and following the instructions provided.
By initiating an electronic request through Online Banking Services for delivery of Online Statements, you (a) consent to receiving the electronic format of periodic statements and agree that we may stop delivering paper periodic statements by mail for the Customer Accounts indicated in your electronic request, (b) you agree that you are able to view and download Adobe PDF files, and (c) you are required to update and download any software updates or other Required Technology in connection with any upgrade or modification to the PDF file format.
For joint account holders, any consent or withdrawal of consent to receive Online Statements by any one of you will be effective for all of you. By initiating a request to receive Online Statements you also agree to electronically receive any communication normally provided in the periodic statements, including contract change in terms, our Customer Information Privacy Notice, and other notices that may be required by Applicable Law.
If you have “Combined Statement” accounts, then you have chosen to receive the transaction detail for those accounts on one “Full Activity” periodic statement. If you want to receive Online Statements for any account that appears in a Full Activity periodic statement, you must first select a lead account and agree to receive the Online Statement not only for the lead account you have selected, but also for all accounts that appear in the Full Activity periodic statement. If, in the future, the lead account you have selected is closed (for any reason) and subsequently removed from Online Banking Services, you will be able to access Online Statements for only two years from the date of the last online statement for the lead account and any other accounts listed in a Full Activity periodic statement.. If you desire not to receive Online Statements for all accounts listed in a Full Activity periodic statement you must contact us to request that an account be removed from the Full Activity periodic statement, and after we have processed your request in our ordinary course of business, you will receive a separate periodic statement for each of the removed accounts. In addition, by withdrawing your consent to receive Online Statements for any account that appears in a Full Activity periodic statement, you will also withdraw your consent and remove all of the Combined Statement accounts that appear in the “Full Activity” periodic statement from the Online Statements service If, in the future, you link additional accounts to the Full Activity periodic statement, then your consent to receive Online Statements acts as your consent to receive Online Statements for those additional Combined Statement accounts as well. If you choose to stop receiving Online Statements for a period of time (for any reason), you will no longer have the ability to access the electronic statements during that period of time you are no longer enrolled. Even if the account is re-enrolled into Online Statement Services, you will not have access to Online Statements during that have occurred during that laps of time.
If you receive Online Statements for a Full Activity periodic statement and later remove an account from appearing in the Full Activity periodic statement, your consent to receive Online Statements for the Full Activity periodic statement is also your consent to receive Online Statements for any account subsequently removed from the Full Activity periodic statement.
If you open a new account after the date you elected to consent to receive any Online Statements, we will automatically set that account up for the Online Statements service unless you instruct us otherwise by sending us a secure message through the “Messages” feature of Online Banking Services, or by calling us toll free at the number listed in the Section titled “Notice”. When you add accounts to a Full Activity periodic statement, you may have chosen to display summary balance information for certain other stand-alone accounts in the Full Activity periodic statement. Unless you have consented to receive Online Statements for such stand-alone accounts, you will continue to receive a separate periodic paper statement explaining the transaction detail for those accounts. If you have chosen to electronically receive a Full Activity periodic statement that previously displayed summary balance information for stand-alone accounts, then your Online Statements will contain such summary balance information. If you choose to withdraw your consent and stop receiving Online Statements for the Full Activity periodic statement, then you will no longer receive that summary balance information via Online Statements.
For stand-alone accounts, you may currently receive a periodic paper statement with transaction detail for that statement period only for that account. You may enroll to receive an Online Statement in lieu of your paper periodic statement for a stand-alone account if the account is a personal checking, savings, or money market account with us, and you consent to receive Online Statements for that account.
If you have consented to receive Online Statements, you must access Online Banking Services through the Web Site to get your Online Statements. You may receive notification via email that one of your accounts has a new statement available for viewing.
If you consent to the delivery of Online Statements for an account, we will no longer provide you with periodic paper statements for that account.

You agree to be bound by the ACH Rules and the ACH Agreement with respect to all such transfers and payments. The ACH agreement is incorporated into this Agreement as if set forth herein word-for-word. In the event of an irreconcilable conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the ACH Agreement with respect to any ACH transaction or services provided in connection with any such transaction, the provisions of the ACH Agreement shall control; provided that the provisions of this Agreement regarding Unauthorized Use shall govern over any conflicting provisions of the ACH Agreement.
You will be considered the originator of your ACH entries under the ACH Rules. You agree not to initiate ACH entries that violate Applicable Law or the ACH Rules, including but not limited to sanctions enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). It is your responsibility to obtain information regarding OFAC enforced sanctions. You may obtain further information from the OFAC Compliance Hotline at (800)540-OFAC.

5.10. Wire Transfer Services. This Section shall not apply to Consumer Accounts. We may allow you to make wire transfers through Online Banking Services during the Term. We send outgoing and receive incoming wire transfers through the Arkansas Bankers’ Bank or other third party financial institutions, as selected by us from time to time. All wire transfers made pursuant to this Agreement are governed by this Agreement, Subpart B of Regulation J of the Federal Reserve Board, and all other Applicable Law. You shall designate to us in the form required by us those Users authorized to instruct us regarding wire transfers including without limitation, Users authorized to initiate wire transfer requests and select advice methods, confirmation methods, and any or all authorizations and instructions that may be requested by us. We may rely on any such authorization until it has been revoked by you in writing or through Online Banking Services. We shall have a reasonable time to process any revocation received pursuant to this Section.
We may use means and routes for wire transfers that we deem suitable for each outgoing wire transfer in our sole and absolute discretion. We shall establish from time to time a specific time of day after which we will not accept an incoming wire transfer request to be processed on the day of receipt. Wire transfer requests received after our established deadline or on any non-Business Day, including any Saturday, Sunday, holiday or any day that Bank’s wire department is not open will be considered received on the next Business Day.
You shall supply to us any information we may reasonably request regarding any wire transfer request initiated by you, including, without limitation, money amounts, affected accounts, dates of transfer, the beneficiary’s name and account number, the name and routing number of the beneficiary’s financial institution, such additional information as we may reasonably request and, if necessary, further evidence of any Master User’s or Sub-User’s authority to transfer funds or to do any other act contemplated by this Agreement. The order in which we process wire transfer requests is determined solely by us in our sole and absolute discretion. In addition to any other reasons contained in this Agreement, we may reject a wire transfer request from you for any reason, in our discretion, including if we are unable to obtain confirmation of such wire transfer request satisfactory to us. We may notify you by phone call or email in the event we reject a wire transfer request. We may also reject an incoming wire transfer if we have reasonable grounds to do so.
The Master User shall designate Users authorized to confirm wire transfer requests. The Master User may add, change or delete the Users appointed under this Section by written notice or through Online Banking Services. We advise you not to waive confirmation. If you, however, choose to waive confirmation, you shall be liable for all outgoing wire transfer requests. You acknowledge that not using confirmation procedures substantially increases your risk of liability for an unauthorized wire transfer.
You will select the method or type of advice you wish to receive after we send an outgoing wire transfer or receive an incoming wire transfer. If you select telephonic advices, you shall designate one or more Users to be contacted and telephone numbers to be used for advice purposes. We shall not be required to make more than one (1) attempt to reach your designated location by telephone. If we are able to reach your designated location, but not a User so designated by you, we may leave a message containing the information to be conveyed. If you select advices by facsimile or email, you shall exercise extreme care in maintaining your own security in the receipt of facsimile advices. You acknowledge that the information to be received by facsimile or email may include confidential information, including, without limitation, names, amounts, telephone numbers, and email addresses. You shall establish and maintain appropriate Security Procedures to protect such confidential information. You may waive your right to receive advices.
Wire transfers across country borders are customarily processed by us through a correspondent. Any and all fees, commissions, or charges assessed by the correspondent shall be passed on to you. Payment to a foreign country is subject to the laws of the foreign country involved. We assume no liability for delays, non-delivery or other events resulting from causes beyond our control. In refunding unexecuted payment orders, our liability to you shall be limited to the extent we receive payment from the correspondent financial institution processing the transfer. Cancellation of a transfer involving other than domestic currency is subject to any rate exchange loss as determined by us. You shall sell any canceled payment order to us at the then current applicable foreign currency buy rate.
5.11. Bill Pay Services. During the Term, we may allow you to pay bills by electronic transfer or check to any Person whom we approve and you designate as a payee in any bill payment request sent through Online Banking Services. You may access our Bill Pay Services after logging into Online Banking Services by clicking on the Bill Payment link on the left side of the screen or through a Compatible Device through a software application that we may make available to you in our sole discretion. You will then be directed to the web site of our third party bill payment provider. You will establish your list of payees by following the on-screen instructions and help features and instructions on the provider’s web site. You may add a new fixed or recurring payment for any payee but only if the payee is on your authorized list of payees and has been approved by us. If the payee is not able to receive electronic payments, a paper check may be generated for payment. The check will carry your account number and will clear directly through the Customer Account you designate. A unique check number will appear on your statement for easy recognition and later viewing. We reserve the right to refuse the designation of a payee for any reason. We are not responsible if a bill payment request cannot be made due to incomplete, incorrect, or outdated information provided by you regarding a payee or if you attempt to pay a payee that is not on your authorized payee list.
We will process variable payments so that the payment is received on the Business Day you or the payee’s statement designates as the due date, as applicable; provided the payment request is received prior to the applicable cut-off time. The current cut-off time set by us is 3 p.m. Central Time. Variable bill requests received after the cut-off time, or at any time on a non-Business Day may be processed on the prior Business Day. We reserve our right to change the cut-off time by giving you notice of the new cut-off time. FOR RECURRING PAYMENT REQUESTS, IF YOU DESIGNATE A PAYMENT DATE OF THE 28TH THROUGH THE 31ST OF A MONTH, THE PAYMENT WILL ALWAYS BE SCHEDULED TO ARRIVE ON THE CALENDAR DAY YOU SELECTED UNLESS THAT MONTH DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME NUMBER OF DAYS IN IT. THEN IT WILL BE SCHEDULED TO ARRIVE ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE FOLLOWING MONTH. Recurring payments will be processed and applied on the payment dates you have designated, unless such payment date falls on a non-Business Day resulting in your payment being processed to arrive on the prior Business Day. BASED ON THE LOCATION AND MANNER IN WHICH PAYMENT IS TO BE SENT, YOU MUST INITIATE YOUR BILL PAYMENT REQUESTS A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME PRIOR TO THE ACTUAL DUE DATE TO PROVIDE ENOUGH TIME FOR YOUR PAYMENT TO REACH THE PAYEE PRIOR TO THE ACTUAL DUE DATE. SUCH REASONABLE TIME SHALL NOT BE LESS THAN (A) FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS FOR EACH PAPER BILL PAYMENT (RECURRING OR VARIABLE) OR (B) THREE (3) DAYS FOR EACH ELECTRONIC PAYMENT. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO SCHEDULE/ACTIVATE PAYMENTS SUFFICIENTLY IN ADVANCE OF THE ACTUAL PAYMENT DATE, WHETHER RECURRING OR ONE-TIME PAYMENTS. WE WILL USE REASONABLE EFFORTS TO PROCESS YOUR BILL PAY REQUESTS MADE THROUGH OUR BILL PAY SERVICES, BUT WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LATE PAYMENTS WHEN YOU FAIL TO TIMELY INITIATE PAYMENTS SUFFICIENTLY IN ADVANCE OF THE ACTUAL PAYMENT DATE AND WE DO NOT OTHERWISE GUARANTEE THE TIMING OF BILL PAY REQUEST OR THE DATE ON WHICH THE PAYEE WILL RECEIVE OR POST A PAYMENT FROM YOU. Due to circumstances beyond our control, some payees take longer to post payments than others. We may send out your first payment up to eight (8) Business Days in advance of the payment date, and thus the amount of your check or electronic draft will be deducted from your Connected Account sooner than a payment/payee relationship that has already been established. After your first payment has posted, you will have a better understanding of how much time to allow for each payee. You must select a payment date that is at least three (3) Business Days before the actual due date reflected on your payee statement. If your actual due date falls on a non-Business Day you must select a payment date that is at least one Business Day before the actual due date. Payment dates should be prior to any late date or grace period. When you have scheduled a payment, you authorize us to debit your Connected Account and remit funds on your behalf. You certify that your Connected Account is an account from which you are authorized to make payments and any payment you make will be debited from your Connected Account. You also authorize the credit of returned payments from payees using the Bill Pay Service. We will incur no liability if we are unable to complete any payments initiated because of any of the following: (a) you have not provided us with the correct payment account information, or the correct name, address, telephone number, or account information for the payee upon initiation of the payment; (b) circumstances beyond our control (such as, but not limited to, fire, flood, or interference from an outside force) prevent us from properly executing the transaction; (c) the payment-processing center is not functioning properly; or (d) the payee does not accept or returns the payment for any reason.
You agree to have available funds on deposit in the applicable Connected Account you designate in amounts sufficient to pay for all bill payment requests, as well as, any other payment obligations you have to us. We reserve the right, without liability, to (a) reject or reverse a bill payment request or (b) suspend your use of the Bill Payment Services, if you fail to comply with this requirement or any other terms or conditions of this Agreement. If you do not have sufficient funds in the funding Connected Account and we have not exercised our right to reverse or reject a bill payment request, you agree to pay for such payment obligations on demand. You further agree that we, at our sole option, may charge any of your accounts with us to cover such payment obligations. We reserve the right to select the method in which to remit funds through the Bill Pay Service on your behalf to your payee. Any bill payment request may be changed or canceled provided the change or request is made through the Bill Pay Service in sufficient time and consistent with our policies with respect to the method of bill payment. Additionally, payments cannot be made to any person or entity outside of the United States or one of its territories. .
You must have enough available money or credit in any account from which you instruct us to make a bill payment request. All bill payment requests must be in U.S. Dollars. For security reasons, we may implement limits on the number or amount of bill payment requests you can make using our Bill Pay Services. In addition, a single bill payment request cannot exceed $10,000.00 and the collective total for one (1) Business Day cannot exceed $20,000.00. If you desire to make a transaction in excess of such limits, after receiving a written request from you, we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, modify such limits.
By using Bill Pay Services, you understand that we and/or the United States Postal Service may return payments for various reasons, such as, but not limited to, an incorrect address being provided, the account number is not valid; the Bill Pay Service is unable to locate the account; or payee account is paid in full.
By using Bill Pay Services, you acknowledge and agree that (a) Stop Payment Services are not intended to be used for and shall not be used for the cancellation of payments processed or to be processed through Bill Pay Services and (b) Bill Pay Services are not intended to be used for and shall not be used for the initiation of payments subject to a previous stop payment request. You also agree that in no event shall you initiate through Bill Pay Services any payment of any item for which you have previously initiated a stop payment request through Stop Payment Services. In the event a payment request is initiated through Bill Pay Services, such payment is not cancelled through Bill Pay Services within the required timeframe, and such item is paid by us, we shall have no liability for such payment notwithstanding any stop payment request initiated prior to payment of such item, and you hereby authorize us to collect from any Customer Account, the amount of any such items paid.

You shall promptly provide any retained check (or, if the check has been destroyed, a sufficient copy of the front and back of such check) to us as requested to aid in the clearing and collection process, to resolve claims or other disputes regarding any check, and to facilitate investigations related to unusual transactions or poor quality Files. You will be solely responsible for any liability resulting from further negotiation or transfer of any checks for which a File has been submitted to us.

We have no obligation to pay you interest on the amount of any returned File debited from the Customer Account. A File shall not be received by us until shown as a deposit into the applicable Customer Account according to our records.

By submitting any File for deposit through Remote Deposit Capture Services, in addition to any and all other representations and warranties made in connection with such File and the underlying item (whether pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise), you represent and warrant that you and any and all agents and employees acting on your behalf in any way with respect to such File and item are fully authorized to process such File and item using Remote Deposit Capture Services and to cause a deposit to be made to the applicable account.

Under this circumstance Bank will only use a “persistent” cookie when authorized during the login process for the Web Site or Online Banking Services. A “persistent” cookie may be reset in our discretion but will be reset at least once every 365 days.
We may disclose information about your accounts, and you authorize us to disclose such information, as follows: (a) to consumer reporting agencies; (b) for fraud, security or risk control; (c) to help complete a transaction you initiate, including information requested to verify the existence or condition of an account; (d) to resolve disputes or inquiries you may have about your accounts; (e) with your consent or at your direction, which may be oral, in writing, by telephone, electronic or other means we recognize; (f) when disclosure is required by Applicable Law, such as pursuant to court order, subpoena, legal process or government agency examination or investigation, or to protect or enforce our rights; (g) to companies that perform services for us in connection with your accounts and Online Banking Services, such as data processing and software companies and collection agencies; (h) as otherwise necessary to service your account, or as permitted or required by Applicable Law.
By entering into this Agreement and using Online Banking Services, you represent and warrant that you understand and agree as follows: (x) in connection with any governmental investigation or activity intended to promote or further national security interests, information sent through the Web Site or Online Banking Services may be obtained by governmental authorities through legal process or means that are unknown to us, (y) we may be unaware that any such information has been obtained, and (z) we shall have no liability or obligation to (i) prevent any governmental authority from obtaining such information or, (ii) except to the extent required by Applicable Law and known to us, disclose that any such information may have been obtained.

26. Email. Sending email is a very good way to communicate with us regarding the Connected Accounts or Online Banking Services. However, unless you use the “Messages” feature available through Online Banking Services AFTER YOU HAVE SECURLY LOGGED INTO THE ONLINE BANKING SITE, your email is sent via your own software and, as a result, may not be secure. Because of this, you should not include confidential information, such as account numbers and balances in any email to us. You cannot use email to initiate Online Banking Services transactions. All such transactions must be initiated using the appropriate functions within Online Banking Services. We will not be liable for any errors, omissions, claims, or problems of any kind involving your email.
27. Third-Party Components and Content . The Online Banking Services may include or incorporate certain components which are licensed or made available under separate terms by the third-party licensor of such components.

In addition, information that we publish on the Internet, through the Web Site, or through Online Banking Services may contain links to other sites that are not controlled by us nor subject to our privacy policy and third parties may establish links to our site. We make no representations about any other web site that you may access to, from or through the Web Site.

If any of the Connected Accounts are Consumer Accounts, the foregoing provision may be limited to the extent required by Applicable Law, including the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and related federal regulations.
30. Accuracy and Timeliness of Information Provided by Customer or Third Parties.

In no event shall we be obligated to verify the accuracy or completeness of any information provided to us by you or any other financial institution. We shall have no liability for any loss or damage arising directly or indirectly from any inaccuracy or incompleteness in the input of an order or instruction from you; any failure by you to obtain a confirmation of an order or instruction; or any cancellation or attempted cancellation by you of an order or instruction. Information with respect to all transactions is provided solely for your convenience, and you shall have no recourse against us as to use of such information.
