This
PC-TRANS Home Banking Agreement and Disclosure ("Agreement") is
the contract which covers your and our rights and responsibilities
concerning PC-TRANS services offered to you by KALSEE Credit Union.
PC-TRANS service permits you to electronically initiate account
transactions involving your accounts and to communicate with KALSEE
Credit Union. In this Agreement, the words "you", "your" and "yours"
mean those who request and use PC-TRANS, any joint owners of accounts
accessed under this Agreement or any authorized users of this service.
The words "we", "us" and "our" mean KALSEE Credit Union. The word
"account" means any one or more accounts you have with KALSEE Credit
Union. By requesting and using PC-TRANS service, each of you, jointly
and severally, agree to the terms and conditions in this Agreement,
and any amendments.
Account Access. If we approve your application
for PC-TRANS service, you may use a personal computer to access
your accounts. You must use your base account number and the temporary
password we provide you in order to logon to PC-TRANS for the first
time. You will then be prompted to change the temporary
password to your permanent password (under prescribed guidelines).
Once you correctly enter your permanent password, the procedure
for logging on to PC-TRANS will be completed. You will thereafter
only need to enter your account number and the permanent password
you generated whenever you click on the "PC-TRANS Login" tab. KALSEE
Credit Union's on-line banking service is accessible seven (7) days
a week, twenty-four (24) hours a day. No special software is
needed in order to use PC-TRANS. All you need a personal
computer and access to the Internet (World Wide Web). You are responsible
for the operation of any software and your computer. This includes
"export" software compatible with PC-TRANS such as Microsoft® Money
and Quicken®. KALSEE Credit Union will not be responsible for any
errors or failures involving any telephone service, Internet service,
software installation or your computer.
Types of Transactions. At the present time, you may use PC-TRANS
service to:
-
Transfer funds between your checking, savings and loan accounts.
- Transfer funds between
account numbers (Cross-account transfers require a signed form)
-
Review account balance, transaction history and tax information
for any of your checking, savings or loan accounts.
- Download
your basic account information to financial management software
programs like Quicken® or Microsoft® Money, if applicable.

and are permitted by KALSEE Credit Union.

The following limitations on PC-TRANS transactions may apply in
using the services listed above:
a. Transfers. You may make funds transfers to other accounts (ex.
checking, savings etc.) of yours as often as you like. You may transfer
or withdraw up to the available balance in your account or up to
the available credit limit on a line of credit at the time of the
transfer, except as limited under this Agreement or your deposit
or loan agreements. KALSEE Credit Union reserves the right to refuse
any transaction that would draw upon insufficient or unavailable
funds, lower an account below a required balance, or otherwise require
us to increase our required reserve on the account.
b. Account Information. The account balance and transaction history
information may be limited to recent account information involving
your accounts. Also, the availability of funds for transfer or withdrawal
may be limited due to the processing time for ATM transactions and
our Funds Availability Policy.
c. E-Mail. KALSEE Credit Union welcomes your e-mail. However, we
may not immediately receive e-mail communications that you send
and we will not take action based on e-mail requests until we actually
receive your message and have a reasonable opportunity to act. Please
also note that anti-spam filtering programs are capable of preventing
e-mail from being properly sent or received. PLEASE KEEP
THIS IN MIND IF YOU NEED TO PROVIDE US WITH IMPORTANT INFORMATION
REGARDING YOUR ACCOUNT. For security purposes, no transactions or address
changes are allowed by e-mail request. At such time you
need to immediately contact KALSEE Credit Union regarding an
unauthorized transaction or stop payment request, you may call us
during regular business hours at: (269) 382-7800. We also have a
toll free number: 1-877-KALSEE1.
SECURITY OF ACCOUNT NUMBER AND PASSWORD. Your account number and
password are used for security purposes. They are strictly confidential
and should not be disclosed to third parties or recorded. You are
responsible for the safekeeping of your login information. You agree
not to disclose or otherwise make your login
information available to anyone not
authorized to sign on your accounts. If you authorize anyone to
use your account login
information, that authority shall continue
until you specifically revoke such authority by notifying KALSEE
Credit Union. If you fail to maintain the security of your PC-TRANS
login
information and KALSEE Credit Union
suffers a loss, we may terminate your PC-TRANS and account services
immediately.
LIABILITY FOR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS. You are responsible for all transfers
you authorize under this Agreement. If you permit other persons
to use your PC-TRANS service or login
information, you are responsible for
any transactions they authorize or conduct on any of your accounts.
However, tell us at once if you believe anyone has used your login
information or accessed your accounts
through PC-TRANS without your authorization. If you tell us within
two (2) business days, you can lose not more than fifty dollars
($50.00) if someone accesses your accounts without your permission.
If you do not tell us within two (2) business days after you learn
of the unauthorized use of your account or access code(s), and we
can prove that we could have stopped someone from accessing your
account without permission if you had told us, you could lose as
much as five hundred dollars ($500.00).
Also, if your statement shows PC-TRANS transfers that you did not
make, tell us at once. It is a possiblity that your account may
have been compromised. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days
after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any
money lost after the sixty days (60) if we can prove that we could
have stopped someone from making the transfers if you had told us
in time. If a good reason (such as a hospital stay) kept you from
telling us, we will extend the time periods.
If you believe that someone has compromised or may compromise your
account without your permission, call KALSEE Credit Union during
regular business hours on Monday through Friday at: (269) 382-7800
or write us at:
Internal Operations Department
KALSEE Credit Union

BUSINESS DAYS. Our business days are Monday through Friday. Holidays
are not included.
FEES AND CHARGES. At this time there are no charges for PC-TRANS
services. From time to time, the charges may be changed. We will
notify you of any changes as required by law. If you request a transfer
or check withdrawal from your line of credit account, such transactions
may be subject to charges under the terms and condition of your
loan agreement.
PERIODIC STATEMENTS. Transfers and withdrawals transacted on-line
will be recorded on your periodic statement. You will receive a
statement monthly unless there is not a transaction in a particular
month. In any case, you will receive a statement at least quarterly.
ACCOUNT INFORMATION DISCLOSURE. We will disclose information to
third parties about your account or the transfers you make:
* As necessary to complete transfers.
* To verify the existence of sufficient funds to cover specific
transactions upon the request of a payee or a third party, such
as a credit bureau or merchant;
* To comply with government agency or court orders;
* If you give us your written permission.
KALSEE CREDIT UNION'S LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO MAKE TRANSFERS. If
we do not complete a transfer from your account on time or in the
correct amount according to our Agreement with you and the instructions
you transmit, we will be liable for your actual losses or damages.
However, KALSEE Credit Union will not be liable:
* If, through no fault of ours, you do not have adequate funds in
your account to complete a transaction, your account is closed,
or the transaction amount would exceed your credit limit on your
line of credit, if applicable.
* If you used the wrong login
information or you have not properly
followed any applicable computer, Internet Access, or KALSEE Credit
Union User Instructions for making transfer transactions.
* If your computer fails or malfunctions or the PC-TRANS service
was not properly working and such problem should have been apparent
when you attempted such transaction.
* If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, telecommunication
outages, postal strikes, equipment or power failure) prevent making
the transaction.
* If the funds in your account are subject to an administrative
hold, legal process or other claim.
* If you have not given KALSEE Credit Union complete, correct and
current instructions so we can process a transfer.
* If the error was caused by a system beyond KALSEE Credit Union's
control, such as your Internet Service Provider.
* If there are other exceptions as established by KALSEE Credit
Union from time to time.
TERMINATION OF PC-TRANS SERVICES. You agree that we may terminate
this Agreement and your use of the PC-TRANS services if you or any
authorized user of your account breaches this or any other agreement
with us; or, if we have reason to believe that there has been an
unauthorized use of your account or access code.
You or any other party to your account can terminate this Agreement
by notifying us in writing. Termination of service will be effective
the first business day following receipt of your written notice.
However, termination of this Agreement will not affect the rights
and responsibilities of the parties under this Agreement for transactions
initiated before termination.

and conditions upon which this service is offered. KALSEE Credit
Union will mail notice to you at least twenty-one (21) days before
the effective date of any change, as required by law. Use of the
PC-TRANS service is subject to existing regulations governing your
accounts and any future changes to those regulations.
BILLING ERRORS. In case of errors or questions about your PC-TRANS
transactions, telephone us at (269) 382-7800 or write to us at KALSEE
Credit Union, P.O. Box 3006, Kalamazoo, Michigan 49003 as soon as
you can. We must hear from you no later than sixty (60) days after
we sent the first statement on which the problem appears.
* Tell us your name and account number.
* Describe the transaction you are unsure about, and explain as
clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need
more information.
* Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us verbally, we may require that you send us your complaint
or question in writing within ten (10) calendar days. We will determine
whether an error occurred within ten (10) business days after we
hear from you and we will correct any error promptly. If we need
more time, however, we may take up to forty-five (45) days to investigate
your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit
your account within ten (10) business days for the amount you think
is in error, so that you will have the use of the funds during the
time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to
put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive
it within ten (10) business days, we may not credit your account.
We will tell you the results within three (3) business days after
completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error,
we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of
the documents that we used in our investigation.
If a notice of error involves an electronic fund transfer that occurred
within thirty (30) days after the first deposit to the account was
made, the applicable time periods for action shall be twenty (20)
business days in place of ten (10) business days. If a notice of
error involves an electronic fund transfer that was initiated in
a foreign country or occurred within thirty (30) days after the
first deposit to the account was made, the applicable time period
for action shall be ninety (90) calendar days in place of forty-five
(45) calendar days.
ENFORCEMENT. You agree to be liable to KALSEE Credit Union for any
liability, loss, or expense as provided in this Agreement we incur
as a result of any dispute involving your accounts or services.
You authorize the KALSEE Credit Union to deduct any such liability,
loss, or expense from your account without prior notice to you.
In the event either party brings a legal action to enforce the Agreement
or collect any overdrawn funds on accounts accessed under this Agreement,
the prevailing party shall be entitled, subject to applicable law,
to payment by the other party of its reasonable attorney's fees
and costs, including fees on any appeal, bankruptcy proceedings,
and any post-judgment collection actions, if applicable.
If you feel that we have violated the Michigan Electronic Funds
Transfer Act you may notify: Financial Institution Bureau, Banking
Division, Box 30224, Lansing, MI 48909 or, The National Credit Union
Administration, Region IV (Chicago), 4225 Naperville Rd., Suite
125, Lisle, Illinois 60532-3658.
GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with all applicable federal laws and all applicable
substantive laws of the State of Michigan where you opened your
account, and the Bylaws of the Credit Union as they now exist or
may be hereafter amended. You understand that we must comply with
these laws, regulations, and rules. You agree that if there is any
inconsistency between the terms of the Agreement and any applicable
law, regulation, or rule may be modified by Agreement between us.
