E-mail is not a secured environment, so please do not send account information or transaction information.

Keeping Your Account Confidential

For your protection, we recommend that you frequently change your Password to access Online or Mobile Banking. You agree to hold your Password and Logon Name in strict confidence and you will notify us immediately if your Password or Logon Name is lost or stolen. As a precaution, it is recommended that you memorize your Password and Logon Name and do not write either one down. Passwords should not be easy to guess; for example, do not use your children's or pet's names, birth date, addresses or other easily recognized identification related to you. We also recommend that you do not have your browser remember your password. You should also protect your computer or mobile device from being compromised by keeping your operating system and browser software up-to-date as well as other industry standard security practices to protect your computer or mobile device.

You further agree not to allow anyone to gain access to Online or Mobile Banking or to let anyone know your Password used with this service. You agree to assume responsibility for all transactions to the limits allowed by applicable law. 1st Bank Yuma will not be responsible for any loss due to breach in the above security procedures.

To guard against unauthorized use of your Logon Name and Password, Online or Mobile Banking disables the Password indefinitely on the third attempt until you contact us for support and you are properly identified.

Contact 1st Bank Yuma IMMEDIATELY if you believe your Password, Logon Name, ATM Card, MasterCard Debit Card, or Personal Identification Number (PIN) has been lost or stolen or if you have identified any unauthorized Electronic Funds Transactions (EFT) on your current statement viewed Online or your monthly printed statement. In addition to protecting your Password and Logon Name, you should also protect your personal identification information, such as your Driver's License, Social Security Number, etc. This information, alone or together with information on your account, may allow unauthorized access to your account and/or allow identity theft. It is your responsibility to protect your personal information with the same level of care that you protect your account information. WE WILL NEVER ASK FOR YOUR PIN NUMBER OR PASSWORD.

If we need more time, we may take up to forty-five (45) days or ninety (90) days if the account is still within its new account period, POS or a foreign transaction to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within ten (10) business days twenty (20) business days if the account is still within the new account period) for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation.

Regardless of the outcome of our investigation, we will send you a written explanation of our findings within three (3) business days after we complete our investigation. That explanation will include a notice of the date and the amount of the item in question.

Also, if your statement reflects any EFT's that you did not make or authorize, notify 1st Bank Yuma at once. Failure to notify the Bank within sixty (60) days after the statement was mailed to you may result in zero compensation for any losses you may sustain if 1st Bank Yuma can prove that we could have prevented someone from accessing your accounts(s) if you had notified us in time.
