By enrolling in the Service, you agree to all the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. We may offer additional Mobile Banking services and features in the future. Any such added Mobile Banking services and features will be governed by this Agreement and by any terms and conditions provided to you at the time the new Mobile Banking service or feature is added and/or at the time of enrollment for the feature or service, if applicable. From time to time, we may amend this Agreement and modify or cancel the Mobile Banking services we offer without notice, except as may be required by law. Your continued use of the Service constitutes your consent to any such amendment.
II. Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following words have the meanings given below: “Account(s)” means your eligible Bank Checking, Savings, Loans, CDs, information and other Bank of products that can be accessed through Mobile Banking. “Device” means a supportable mobile device including a cellular phone or other mobile device that is web-enabled and allows secure SSL traffic which is also capable of receiving text messages. Your wireless carrier may assess you fees for data or text messaging services. Please consult your wireless plan or provider for details. “Mobile Banking” or the “Service” means the banking services accessible from the Device you have registered with us for Mobile Banking.
III. Mobile Banking Service.
A. Description of Service. Mobile Banking is offered as a convenience and supplemental service to our Online Banking services. It is not intended to replace access to Online Banking from your personal computer or other methods you use for managing your accounts and services with us. Mobile Banking allows you to access your account information, make payments to payees, transfer funds and conduct other banking transactions. To utilize the Service, you must be enrolled to use Online Banking and then activate your Device within the Online Banking system. We reserve the right to limit the types and number of accounts eligible and the right to refuse to make any transaction you request through Mobile Banking. We may also reserve the right to modify the scope of the Service at any time. Mobile Banking may not be accessible or may have limited utility over some network carriers. In addition, the Service may not be supportable for all Devices. We cannot guarantee and are not responsible for the availability of data services provided by your mobile carrier, such as data outages or “out of range” issues.
B. Use of Service. In order to properly use Mobile Banking, you should review and follow the instructions provided on our website. You agree to accept responsibility for learning how to use Mobile Banking in accordance with the online instructions and agree that you will contact us directly if you have any problems with Mobile Banking. We may modify the Service from time to time at our sole discretion. In the event of any modifications, you are responsible for making sure you understand how to use Mobile Banking as modified. You also accept responsibility for making sure that you know how to properly use your Device and we will not be liable to you for any losses caused by your failure to properly use the Service or your Device.
C. Other Agreements. You agree that, when you use Mobile Banking, you remain subject to the terms and conditions of your existing agreements with any unaffiliated service providers, including, but not limited to, your mobile service provider and that this Agreement does not amend or supersede any of those agreements. You understand that those agreements may provide for fees, limitations and restrictions which might impact your use of Mobile Banking (such as data usage or text messaging charges imposed on you by your mobile service provider for your use of or interaction with Mobile Banking), and you agree to be solely responsible for all such fees, limitations and restrictions. You agree that only your mobile service provider is responsible for its products and services. Accordingly, you agree to resolve any problems with your provider directly without involving us. Any deposit account, loan or other banking product accessed through this Service is also subject to the applicable Account Agreements and Disclosures provided at the time of Account opening. You should review these agreements and disclosures carefully, as they may include transaction limitations and fees which might apply to your use of Mobile Banking.
D. Venue. The parties agree that, for purposes of any conflict arising under this agreement, jurisdiction and venue as to the parties for any action arising from this agreement shall be proper in Magistrate Court in Eddy County, New Mexico.
IV. Permitted Mobile Banking Transfers. You may use the Service to transfer funds between your eligible First American Bank Accounts (“Internal Transfer”). You may not transfer to or from an account at another financial institution using Mobile Banking. If you submit your transfer request prior to the deadline established by us for the transfer service, you will initiate an immediate Internal Transfer via Mobile Banking. Transfer transaction requests received after 6:00 p.m. MST on business days and all transactions which are requested on Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays on which we choose to remain closed will be processed on our next business day. You must have sufficient funds available in the selected account at the time the transfer request is received, including any available overdraft protection. We may process transfers that exceed your available balance at our sole discretion. If we process the transfer and unless your overdraft protection is provided via an Overdraft Line of Credit, you agree to cover any overdraft amount plus any applicable fees. Federal regulations require financial institutions to limit the way withdrawals may be made from a savings or money market account. Each transfer from a savings or money market account using Mobile Banking is counted as one of the six limited transactions permitted each monthly statement cycle period, as described in the Deposit Account Agreement and Disclosures. You may be subject to fees or account conversion if you exceed the transaction limits of your Account using Mobile Banking or any other methods outlined in your other Account Agreements and Disclosures. We may also limit the type, frequency and amount of transfers for security purposes and may change or impose the limits without notice, at our option. You agree to confirm the completion of each transfer in your account balance and transaction history before withdrawing transferred funds.
