The Financial Institution may obtain, collect, use, and release confidential Depositor information as permitted or required by law or in a court proceeding or with the Depositor's consent or as necessary to process Transactions. If the Depositor subscribes for PFM Services, special terms and conditions will also apply, as more particularly set forth in the PFM Schedule for Consent and Disclosure for PFM Service (“PFM Special Terms”) attached to and forming part of this Agreement.
USE OF SERVICES – The Depositor may use Direct Services to access any permitted Account and to authorize such Transactions as may be permitted by the Financial Institution from time to time, commencing upon the day these terms and conditions are accepted by the Depositor and the Depositor's request for Direct Services is approved by the Financial Institution. The Depositor cannot use Direct Services to authorize Transactions on an Account that otherwise requires more than 1 authorization (i.e. with multiple signature requirements) unless prior authorization is received in writing and with the Financial Institution's approval. The Financial Institution may, from time to time, add to or delete from the types of use permitted and Direct Services offered.

In connection with Direct Services, the Depositor agrees to provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about the Depositor, the Account, and any External Account when required by the Financial Institution. Further, the Depositor agrees to notify the Financial Institution of any changes to such information within a reasonable period of time.
SERVICE CHARGES AND FEES – The Depositor will pay fees incurred on the Account, including, without limitation, fees imposed by a Third Party. The Depositor will pay the service charges that the Financial Institution establishes, from time to time, for Direct Services, including, without limitation, service charges for providing records regarding the Depositor that the Financial Institution is legally required to provide. The Depositor acknowledges receipt of a schedule of the Financial Institution's charges for Direct Services in effect at the time of acceptance of this Agreement. The Financial Institution may, from time to time, increase or decrease the service charges for Direct Services and provide notice of such changes by sending a notice to the Depositor's last known Notice Contact Information, by posting notice at the Financial Institution's premises or on the Financial Institution's website, by personal delivery, or by any other means the Financial Institution, acting reasonably, considers appropriate to bring the change to the attention of the Depositor. Current service charges for Direct Services may be obtained by contacting the Financial Institution or through the Financial Institution's website. The Depositor is responsible for determining the then current service charges for Direct Services they request, in advance of requesting those services. By requesting Direct Services the Depositor acknowledges their agreement to pay service charges for the Direct Services requested by them then in effect. The Financial Institution can deduct service charges from the Account (or other accounts of the Depositor with the Financial Institution) when the service is requested or performed. New or amended service charges and fees will become effective on the earlier of the stated effective date following publication, when the service is requested or performed, or when incurred, and in any event, no later than 30 days after publication by the Financial Institution.
AVAILABILITY OF DIRECT SERVICES – The Depositor acknowledges that the availability of Direct Services depends on telecommunications systems, computer hardware and software, and other equipment, including equipment belonging to the Financial Institution, Central 1, and Third Parties and that there is no guarantee or obligation to provide continuous or uninterrupted service. The Financial Institution and Central 1 are not liable for any cost, loss, damage, injury, inconvenience, or delay of any nature or kind whatsoever, whether direct, indirect, special, or consequential, that the Depositor may suffer in any way arising from non-continuous or interrupted service or the Financial Institution or Central 1 providing or failing to provide Direct Services, or from the malfunction or failure of telecommunication systems, computer hardware or software, or other equipment or other technical malfunctions or disturbances for any reason whatsoever, nor are the Financial Institution or Central 1 liable for any lost, incomplete, illegible, misdirected, intercepted, or stolen messages, or failed, incomplete, garbled, or delayed transmissions, or online failures (collectively, “Interruption Claims”), even if the Depositor has advised the Financial Institution of such consequences. The Depositor releases and agrees to hold harmless the Financial Institution and Central 1 from any and all Interruption Claims.
AUTHORIZATION FOR TRANSACTIONS – The Depositor acknowledges and agrees that:
1. using the PAC to authorize a Transaction constitutes authorization of that Transaction in the same manner as if authorization was given by the Depositor in person or as otherwise contemplated or permitted by the Account Agreement;
2. the Depositor will be bound by each such Transaction; and
3. once the PAC has been used to authorize a Transaction, the Transaction cannot be revoked or countermanded.
The Depositor irrevocably authorizes and directs the Financial Institution to debit or credit, as the case may be, the amount of any Transaction to the Account, together with any service charges or fees, authorized using the PAC, the PIW, in person by the Depositor, or as otherwise contemplated or permitted by the Account Agreement, in accordance with the normal practices of the Financial Institution, which may be amended from time to time without notice.
PAC AND PIW CONFIDENTIALITY – The Financial Institution can assign and/or require the Depositor to select and use a PAC and/or PIW in connection with this Agreement. The Depositor agrees to keep the PAC and PIW confidential and will only reveal them to authorized Financial Institution agents or officers when required by the Financial Institution. The Depositor agrees not to record the PAC or PIW in any format or medium. The Depositor can change the PAC or PIW at any time. The Depositor agrees to change the PAC or PIW if and when required by the Financial Institution. The Depositor acknowledges that the PAC and/or PIW must be changed if there is a change in the persons authorized to provide Remote Instructions on the Account.

The Depositor is responsible for all use of the PAC and/or PIW and for all Transactions on the Account authorized using Direct Services.

The Depositor acknowledges that the Financial Institution may, from time to time, implement additional security measures, and the Depositor will comply with all instructions and procedures issued by the Financial Institution in respect of such security measures. The Depositor is aware of the risks of unsolicited email, telephone calls, and text message transmissions from persons purporting to be representatives of the Financial Institution. The Depositor agrees not to respond to such unsolicited communications and will only initiate communications with the Financial Institution either through the Financial Institution's Internet banking website or through the Financial Institution's published contact information as shown on the Financial Institution's website.

If the Depositor discloses the PAC to a Third Party, and if the Financial Institution becomes aware of such disclosure, the Financial Institution may, in its sole discretion, waive the confidentiality requirements described in this article 7, PAC and PIW Confidentiality, but only if such disclosure is for a reputable personal financial management service similar to that described in article 29, Personal Financial Management. Notwithstanding any such waiver, the Depositor acknowledges and agrees that the Depositor remains responsible for all use of the PAC by the Third Party.
REMOTE INSTRUCTIONS – The Depositor may provide Remote Instructions to any branch of the Financial Institution as permitted by the Financial Institution, online through the Direct Services web portal, or through the Financial Institution's telephone banking service, if any. The Remote Instructions may concern the Account maintained at that branch, or concern other Transactions and arrangements conducted at or with that branch.

The Financial Institution may, but will not be obliged to, act on Remote Instructions received in the name of the Depositor along with any requisite PAC and/or PIW, if any, to the same extent as if the Remote Instructions were written instructions delivered to the Financial Institution by mail and signed by the Depositor authorized to operate the Account. Any such Remote Instructions are deemed genuine.

The Financial Institution may, in its sole discretion, acting reasonably, delay acting on or refuse to act on any Remote Instruction.

A Remote Instruction is deemed received by the Financial Institution only when actually received and brought to the attention of an authorized officer of the Financial Institution capable of acting upon and implementing the Remote Instruction.

Remote Instructions can be transmitted to the Financial Institution at the telephone or fax number or email address provided by the Financial Institution, or at such other telephone or fax number or email address as the Financial Institution may advise the Depositor by notice in writing, or online through the Direct Services web portal. Any of the persons that constitute the Depositor may act alone and provide Remote Instructions to the Financial Institution, even if 2 or more signatures are otherwise required to operate the Account. The Financial Institution, acting reasonably, is entitled to assume that any person identifying himself or herself as the Depositor is in fact the Depositor, and can rely upon such, and the Financial Institution may act on the Remote Instructions provided by any such person. All Remote Instructions given to the Financial Institution in the name of the Depositor will bind the Depositor.
VERIFICATION AND ACCEPTANCE OF TRANSACTIONS BY THE FINANCIAL INSTITUTION – All Transactions are subject to verification and acceptance by the Financial Institution and, if not accepted, or if accepted but subsequently determined to be in error or otherwise improper or unauthorized, the Financial Institution may, but is not obliged to, reverse them from the Account. Verification may take place at a date later than the date the Depositor authorized the Transaction, which may affect the Transaction date. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if at any time the Financial Institution, acting reasonably, ever determines that a credit made to or traced to the Account was made in error or based upon a mistake of fact, or induced through or in any way tainted by fraud or unlawful conduct, the Financial Institution may place a hold on the credit and/or reverse the credit and any applicable interest.
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION RECORDS – The Financial Institution's records of all Transactions will be deemed to be correct and will be conclusive and binding on the Depositor. All Transactions will appear on the regular statements of account for the Account.

If the Depositor believes or suspects that the records of the Financial Institution contain an error or omission, or reflect unauthorized Account activity, the Depositor must give immediate written notice to the Financial Institution, and in any event, must do so within the time provided in the Account Agreement.

A copy of any fax or email message or other Remote Instructions or the Financial Institution's notes of any Remote Instructions given by telephone may be entered into evidence in any court proceedings as if it were an original document signed by the Depositor. The Depositor will not object to the admission of the Financial Institution's or Central 1's records as evidence in any legal proceeding on the grounds that such records are not originals, are not in writing, are hearsay, or are documents containing information extracted from a computer, and all such records will be conclusive evidence of the Remote Instructions in the absence of documentary recorded evidence to the contrary.

In the absence of evidence to the contrary, the records of the Financial Institution are conclusive for all purposes, including litigation, in respect of any other matter or thing relating to the state of the Accounts between the Depositor and the Financial Institution in respect of any Transaction.
LIABILITY FOR ERRORS AND OMISSIONS – If the Financial Institution makes an error or omission in recording or processing any Transaction, the Financial Institution is only liable for the amount of the error or omission if the Depositor has not caused or contributed to the error or omission in any way, has complied with this Agreement and the Account Agreement, and has given written notice to the Financial Institution within the time provided in the Account Agreement, and to the extent the liability is not otherwise excluded by this Agreement or the Account Agreement.

If the Depositor has given such notice, the Financial Institution's maximum liability is limited to the amount of the error or omission. In no event will the Financial Institution be liable for any delay, inconvenience, cost, loss, or damage (whether direct, special, indirect, exemplary, or consequential) whatsoever caused by, or arising from, any such error or omission.
EXCLUSION OF FINANCIAL INSTITUTION RESPONSIBILITY – The Financial Institution is not responsible for any loss or damage suffered or incurred by the Depositor except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or intentional or wilful misconduct of the Financial Institution, and in any such case the Financial Institution will not be liable for any indirect, special, consequential, or exemplary damages (including, but not limited to, loss of profits) regardless of the cause of action and even if the Financial Institution has been advised of the possibility of such damages. In no event will the Financial Institution be liable for any cost, loss, or damage (whether direct, indirect, special, or consequential) suffered by the Depositor that is caused by:
1. the actions of, or any failure to act by, the Depositor, or any Third Party (and no Third Party will be considered to be acting as an agent for the Financial Institution unless expressly authorized to do so for that purpose);
2. the inaccuracies in, or inadequacies of, any information furnished by the Depositor to the Financial Institution, including, but not limited to any failed, duplicative, or erroneous transmission of Remote Instructions;
3. the failure by the Financial Institution to perform or fulfill any of its obligations to the Depositor, due to any cause beyond the Financial Institution's control; or
4. forged, unauthorized, or fraudulent use of services, or forged, unauthorized, or fraudulent instructions or Instruments, or material alteration to an instruction, including Remote Instructions.
RISKS AND DUTIES – Except for loss caused exclusively by the Financial Institution's gross negligence or intentional or wilful misconduct, and subject to the limitations of liability in this Agreement or the Account Agreement, the Depositor assumes all risk of loss due to the use of Direct Services, including, without limitation, the risk of Third Party fraud. The Depositor further agrees that they will notify the Financial Institution immediately:
1. of any suspected or actual misuse or unauthorized use of the PAC and/or PIW; or
2. if the PAC and/or PIW becomes known to anyone other than the Depositor; and
3. if the Depositor receives Notification of any Transaction affecting the Account that alerts the Depositor of Account activity that was not authorized by them.
The Depositor will change the PAC and/or PIW if either of the notification requirements above in a) or b) arises.

The notification requirement above in b) does not apply if the Depositor has disclosed the PAC to a Third Party for a personal financial management service similar to that described in article 29, Personal Financial Management.

The Depositor acknowledges that the Depositor is responsible for all use made of the PAC and/or PIW and that the Financial Institution is not liable for the Depositor's failure to comply with any part of this Agreement. The Depositor is liable for all authorized and unauthorized use, including all Transactions. The Depositor is also liable for all fraudulent or worthless deposits made into the Account. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Depositor expressly acknowledges and agrees that they shall be bound by and liable for any use of the PAC or PIW by a member of the Depositor's household.

The Depositor is liable for all transfers to linked accounts. The Depositor bears all risk for all such Transactions.

Where the Depositor knows of facts that give rise or ought to give rise to suspicion that any Transactions, or instructions in respect of the Account, or Instruments deposited to the Account are fraudulent, unauthorized, counterfeit, or induced through or in any way tainted by fraud or unlawful conduct, or otherwise likely to be returned to the Financial Institution or found invalid for any reason, the Depositor has a duty to make reasonable inquiries of proper parties into such Transactions, instructions, or Instruments, as the case may be, to determine whether they are valid authorized Transactions, instructions, or Instruments, as the case may be, before negotiating or, alternatively, accessing any funds derived from such Transactions, instructions, or Instruments, and to disclose to the Financial Institution, the Depositor's suspicion and the facts upon which the Depositor's suspicion is based (“Suspicious Circumstances”).

The Financial Institution may, in its sole discretion, investigate any Suspicious Circumstances disclosed by the Depositor, but the Financial Institution does not owe the Depositor any obligation to undertake its own investigation of Suspicious Circumstances. The Financial Institution may place a hold on all or some of the Depositor's Accounts pending investigation of any improper use of any Account. Any hold imposed by the Financial Institution pursuant to any of the terms of this Agreement, or investigation undertaken by the Financial Institution, is imposed or undertaken by the Financial Institution at the Financial Institution's sole discretion and for the Financial Institution's sole benefit.

Release of a hold by the Financial Institution is not a confirmation that a Transaction, instruction, or Instrument is in fact good and may not be relied upon as such by the Depositor. If, to the satisfaction of the Financial Institution, any improper use is established, the Financial Institution can withdraw or suspend Direct Services and/or operation of the Account without notice.
RIGHTS FOR INNOCENT BREACH – Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Account Agreement:
1. if the Depositor did not reveal the PAC and/or PIW to any other person, other than authorized Financial Institution agents or officers when required by the Financial Institution, or write it down or otherwise record it, and changed the PAC and/or PIW when required by this Agreement, the Depositor will not be liable for any unauthorized use that occurs after the Financial Institution has received written notice from the Depositor that the PAC and/or PIW may have become known to someone other than the Depositor. The Financial Institution will not be considered to have received written notice until the Financial Institution gives the Depositor written acknowledgement of receipt of such notice; and
2. the Financial Institution will not otherwise be liable for any damages or other liabilities that the Depositor may incur by reason of the Financial Institution acting, or failing to act, on Remote Instructions given in the name of the Depositor whether or not the Depositor actually gave the Remote Instructions. The Financial Institution will not be liable for any damages or other liabilities that the Depositor may incur by reason of the Financial Institution acting, or failing to act, on no statement requests made by the Depositor through Direct Services whether or not the Depositor actually gave the Remote Instructions.
PROCEDURES FOR ADDRESSING UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER TRANSACTION PROBLEMS – In the event of a problem with a Direct Services Transaction or an unauthorized Direct Services Transaction, the Depositor will report the issue immediately to the Financial Institution. The Financial Institution will investigate and respond to the issue on a timely basis. The Financial Institution will not unreasonably restrict the Depositor from the use of the Account subject to dispute, as long as it is reasonably evident that the Depositor did not cause or contribute to the problem or unauthorized Transaction, has fully cooperated with the investigation, and has complied with this Agreement and the Account Agreement. The Financial Institution will respond to reports of a problem or unauthorized Transaction within 10 business days and will, within a reasonable period of time thereafter, indicate what reimbursement, if any, will be made for any loss incurred by the Depositor. Reimbursement will be made for losses from a problem or unauthorized Transaction in this time frame provided that the Depositor has complied with this Agreement and on the balance of probabilities it is shown that the Depositor took all reasonable and required steps to:
1. protect the confidentiality of the PAC and PIW as required by this Agreement and the Account Agreement;
2. use security safeguards to protect against and detect loss, theft, and unauthorized access as required by this Agreement and the Account Agreement; and
3. act immediately, upon receiving a Notification of, or becoming aware of, an unauthorized Transaction, to mitigate against further loss and report the issue to the Financial Institution.
ACCESS TERMINAL SECURITY – If Direct Services are made available through the Internet or a telephone service provider, the Depositor acknowledges that, although the Financial Institution uses security safeguards to protect against loss, theft, and unauthorized access, because of the nature of data transmission, security is not guaranteed and information is transmitted at the risk of the Depositor. The Depositor acknowledges and shall ensure that any private Access Terminal used to access Direct Services is auto-locked by a password to prevent unauthorized use of the Access Terminal, has a current anti-Contaminant program, and a firewall, and that it is his or her personal responsibility to reduce the risk of Contaminants or online attacks and to comply with this provision. The Depositor further acknowledges that to reduce the risk of unauthorized access to the Account through the Access Terminal, the Depositor will sign out of Direct Services and, where applicable, close the browser when finished using it. The Depositor further acknowledges that using public or shared computers and Access Terminals, or using Access Terminals in a public place, or through an open WiFi or shared Bluetooth portal, to access Direct Services increases the risk of unauthorized access to the Account, and will take all reasonable precautions to avoid such use or inadvertent disclosure of the PAC and/or PIW.
FRAUD PREVENTION AND DETECTION – The Depositor agrees to maintain appropriate security controls and procedures to prevent and detect thefts of Instruments, or losses due to fraud or forgery involving Instruments, or fraudulent or unauthorized Transactions.

The Depositor further agrees to diligently supervise and monitor the conduct and work of all agents having any role in the preparation of the Depositor’s Instruments, the Depositor’s reconciliation of the statement of account for the Account, or other banking functions.
LINKS – If Direct Services are made available through the Internet, the Financial Institution's website may provide links to other websites, including those of Third Parties who may also provide services to the Depositor. The Depositor acknowledges that all those other websites and Third Party services are independent from the Financial Institution's and may be subject to separate agreements that govern their use. The Financial Institution and Central 1 have no liability for those other websites or their contents or the use of Third Party services. Links are provided for convenience only, and the Depositor assumes all risk resulting from accessing or using such other websites or Third Party services.
THIRD PARTY SERVICES – The Financial Institution and Central 1 may, from time to time, make services provided by Third Parties available through Direct Services or the Financial Institution's website. The Depositor acknowledges and agrees that:
1. the Financial Institution and Central 1 make the services of Third Parties available through Direct Services or the Financial Institution's website for the convenience of Depositors. The services are provided by the Third Party and not the Financial Institution or Central 1. The Depositor's relationship with the Third Party shall be a separate relationship, independent of the relationship between the Depositor and the Financial Institution and Central 1, and such a relationship is outside the control of the Financial Institution and Central 1;
2. the Financial Institution and Central 1 make no representation or warranty to the Depositor with respect to any services provided by a Third Party even though those services may be accessed by the Depositor through Direct Services or the Financial Institution's website;
3. the Depositor assumes all risks associated with accessing or using the services of Third Parties;
4. the Financial Institution and Central 1 have no responsibility or liability to the Depositor in respect of services provided by a Third Party;
5. any dispute that relates to services provided by a Third Party is strictly between the Depositor and the Third Party, and the Depositor will raise no defence or claim against the Financial Institution and/or Central 1; and
6. the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act and Regulations may apply to the services provided by Third Parties and that the Third Parties may, from time to time, adopt policies and procedures to address the reporting, record-keeping, client identification, and ongoing monitoring requirements of that legislation.
INDEMNITY – The Depositor agrees to indemnify and hold the Financial Institution and its service providers and Central 1 and all of their connected parties, including, without limitation, their respective agents, directors, officers, employees, affiliates, and licensees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities and costs, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with any claim or demand arising out of or connected to the Depositor's use of Direct Services. Depositors must assist and cooperate as fully as reasonably required by the Indemnified Parties in the defence of any such claim or demand. The disclaimers, liability exclusions, liability limitations, and indemnity provisions in this Agreement survive indefinitely after the termination of this Agreement and apply to the extent permitted by law. Without limiting the foregoing, the Depositor will indemnify and save the Indemnified Parties harmless from and against all liability, costs, loss, expenses, and damages, including direct, indirect, and consequential, incurred by the Indemnified Parties as a result of:
1. any of the Indemnified Parties making Direct Services available to the Depositor;
2. any of the Indemnified Parties acting upon, or refusing to act upon, Remote Instructions;
3. any of the Indemnified Parties acting upon, or refusing to act upon, no statement requests made by the Depositor through Direct Services;
4. any Transaction that results in a negative balance in the Account; or
5. the consequences of any Transaction authorized by the Depositor.
This indemnity will enure to the benefit of the Indemnified Parties and will be binding upon the Depositor and the Depositor's heirs, executors, successors, and assigns and shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any act or omission prior to termination as gives rise to an indemnified claim, even if notice is received after termination.
DIRECT SERVICES ACKNOWLEDGEMENT – The Depositor acknowledges and agrees that:
1. when transfers and bill payments are authorized through Direct Services, funds are deemed irrevocably transferred out of the Account and the Transaction cannot be revoked or countermanded by the Depositor;
2. anyone with access to the PAC and/or PIW may be able to access Direct Services and may use the PAC and/or PIW to transfer money out of an Account, set up bill payment arrangements, make bill payments, and authorize any other Transaction;
3. the Financial Institution will not be liable in any way to the Depositor or any other person for processing or accepting on the Account any Transaction that results in the transfer of money out of the Account or in the payment of bills, even if the money is used for the benefit of a person other than the Depositor, or if bills owed by a person other than the Depositor are paid;
4. the Depositor will be liable for all Transactions conducted using Direct Services, including Transactions that benefit a person other than the Depositor or that result in the payment of bills owed by a person other than the Depositor; and
5. a copy of an electronic communication is admissible in legal proceedings and constitutes the same authority as would an original document in writing.
NO STATEMENT REQUEST AND ONGOING VERIFICATION OBLIGATIONS – If, at the request of the Depositor, the Financial Institution agrees to cease printing and mailing statements of account for the Account to the Depositor, the Depositor acknowledges and agrees that:
1. the Depositor will be responsible to obtain (whether from the Financial Institution or using Direct Services) and review, after the end of each calendar month, a statement of the activity in the Account, and will, by no later than the end of the following calendar month (the “Notification Date”), notify the Financial Institution of any errors, irregularities, omissions, or unauthorized Transactions of any type in that account record or in any Instrument or other items, or of any forgeries, fraudulent or unauthorized Transactions of any type, and any debits wrongly made to the Account;
2. notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, after the Notification Date (except as to any errors, irregularities, omissions, or unauthorized Transactions of any type of which the Depositor has notified the Financial Institution in writing on or before the Notification Date), the Depositor agrees that:
  1. the amount of the balances shown on the last day of the calendar month is correct and binding on the Depositor subject to the right of the Financial Institution to make reversals in accordance with this Agreement and the Account Agreement;
  2. all amounts charged to the Account are valid;
  3. the Depositor is not entitled to be credited with any amount not shown on the statement of account for the Account for that calendar month;
  4. the Depositor has verified the validity of any Instruments and instructions; and
  5. the use of any service shown is correct.

In addition, if the Depositor subscribes for PFM Services, special terms and conditions will also apply, as more particularly set forth in the PFM Special Terms attached to and forming part of this Agreement. If there is any conflict between the PFM Special Terms and the terms and conditions in the rest of this Agreement or in respect of this Article 29, Personal Financial Management, then the PFM Special Terms will apply for the PFM Service. Further:
1. in connection with the PFM Service, the Depositor agrees to provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about an asset and/or liability when required by the Financial Institution.

REMOTE DEPOSITS – If the Financial Institution, through Direct Services, makes the Remote Deposit Service available and the Depositor uses the Remote Deposit Service, the Depositor acknowledges and agrees that:
1. solely for the Remote Deposit Service, the Financial Institution appoints the Depositor as its agent, to act on behalf of the Financial Institution in the creation and transmission of an Official Image to the Financial Institution, and any other related duties that may be required by the Financial Institution, all in accordance with the Rules and applicable legislation governing Instruments. In this context, transmission to and receipt by the Financial Institution of the Official Image will have the same effect as if the Instrument was delivered to a branch of the Financial Institution for negotiation and clearing. The Depositor acknowledges and agrees that this role as agent cannot be further delegated by the Depositor. Further, the Depositor acknowledges and agrees that the Depositor shall be personally responsible and liable for:
  1. compliance with this Agreement,
  2. maintaining adequate security over any Access Terminal used, the location of use of the Access Terminal, and any passwords so as to prevent use by others or interception of data transmitted,
  3. ensuring that all Official Images created and transmitted are of good quality and fully and accurately capture all material details of the Eligible Bill,
  4. maintaining adequate safeguards and procedures for the preservation of originals of all Eligible Bills transmitted as Official Images, and
  5. verifying that deposits expected to be made to the Account reconcile with dates and amounts applicable to transmissions made using the Remote Deposit Service and for providing immediate notice to the Financial Institution of any errors, omissions, irregularities, or concerns about suspicions of fraudulent Instruments or compromise of the security applicable to the use of the Remote Deposit Service;
2. the Financial Institution may, upon receipt of what reasonably appears to qualify as an Official Image, treat such as an Official Image and, as if it were an original of an Instrument received at a branch of the Financial Institution, subject to the Account Agreement and any policies of the Financial Institution governing Instruments;
3. the creation of an Official Image will be done using a method authorized by the Financial Institution, in its sole discretion, from time to time. Further, the Depositor agrees to take all proper and necessary precautions to prevent any other person from purporting to create or transmit an Official Image to the credit of the Depositor's Account;
4. nothing in this Agreement obliges the Financial Institution to accept for deposit any item whether it is or purports to be an Official Image. The Depositor shall not purport to create or transmit an Official Image of any item that does not qualify as an Eligible Bill or any item that is post-dated, stale-dated, received by the Depositor from anyone other than the drawer of that item, or that is in any way altered. If the Depositor has any suspicions or concerns about the authenticity, validity, negotiability, or chain of title to any item purporting to be an Eligible Bill, then the Depositor shall not seek to use the Remote Deposit Service for negotiation or collection of that item, but will instead bring the original of that item to the counter of the branch of Account, identify the specific concerns to the Financial Institution, and fully disclose all material facts known by the Depositor relating to that item and fully cooperate with any inquiry or investigation of the concerns;
5. under the Remote Deposit Service, Eligible Bills are restricted to those Instruments in Canadian dollars or United States dollars, drawn on a financial institution domiciled in Canada or the United States, as and if applicable, in the sole discretion of the Financial Institution, from time to time. The Depositor shall not seek to use the Remote Deposit Service to deposit any Instrument into an Account different than the currency denominated on the Instrument. Canadian dollar Instruments shall only be deposited to a Canadian dollar Account. United States dollar Instruments shall only be deposited to a United States dollar Account;
6. Official Images received through the Remote Deposit Service are subject to number and dollar limits that may change from time to time without prior notice to the Depositor;
7. any Transaction made on any day or at any time during which the Financial Institution is not open for business, may be credited to the Account on the next business day of the Financial Institution;
8. once an Official Image of an Eligible Bill has been transmitted to the Financial Institution through the Remote Deposit Service, no further Official Images of that Eligible Bill will be created or transmitted through the Remote Deposit Service (or any other similar service) unless the Depositor is requested to do so by the Financial Institution in writing. Further, the Depositor agrees to make no further use of the original of an imaged Eligible Bill, and shall safely retain possession of the original of the Eligible Bill without further negotiation, transfer, or delivery to any other person or holder. In addition to all obligations and responsibilities either set forth in this Agreement or elsewhere, the Depositor agrees to indemnify and hold the Financial Institution and its service providers and Central 1 and all of their connected parties, including, without limitation, their respective agents, directors, officers, employees, affiliates, and licensees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities and costs, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with any claim or demand arising out of or connected to the Depositor's use of the Remote Deposit Service or duplicate negotiation of items that were at any time presented as Official Images of Eligible Bills. The Depositor must assist and cooperate as fully as reasonably required by the Indemnified Parties in the defence of any such claim or demand. The disclaimers, liability exclusions, liability limitations, and indemnity provisions in this Agreement survive indefinitely after the termination of this Agreement and apply to the extent permitted by law. Without limiting the foregoing, the Depositor will indemnify and save the Indemnified Parties harmless from and against all liability, costs, loss, expenses, and damages, including direct, indirect, and consequential incurred by the Indemnified Parties as a result of any breach of this Agreement, or any claims arising from or relating to misuse of Official Images or items purporting to be Official Images, or negotiation of Eligible Bills where an Official Image has also been transmitted for collection;
9. on transmission of an Official Image of an Eligible Bill to the Financial Institution, the Depositor is responsible for immediately marking the face of the Eligible Bill with a blatant notation or mark that prevents renegotiation of the Eligible Bill and indicates that the Eligible Bill has been imaged and transmitted, taking care not to obliterate any material particulars of that Eligible Bill. (For example: This can be done by writing "void" or "paid" or placing a diagonal stroke across the face of the item with a pencil, pen, or brightly colored highlighter.) For a period of 120 days after transmission of the Official Image to the Financial Institution, or such shorter period as stipulated by the Financial Institution in writing, the Depositor shall retain and produce to the Financial Institution on written request the original of all imaged Eligible Bills. If the Depositor receives a written request to retain or produce, the Depositor will comply with the written request, and shall, if requested, produce, by delivering to the Financial Institution, the original of all specified Eligible Bills within 5 business days of such request. If the Depositor fails to comply with the written request made pursuant to this provision, then the Financial Institution can place a hold on or reverse any credit made to the Account in relation to those specified Eligible Bills, even if such creates an overdraft on the Account. If no written request is received within that time, then 120 calendar days after an Official Image has been transmitted to the Financial Institution through the Remote Deposit Service or such shorter period as stipulated by the Financial Institution in writing, and provided that the Depositor has verified a credit to the Account that reconciles to the Official Image transmitted, the Depositor agrees to immediately proceed with destruction of the original of the Eligible Bill. Destruction methods include shredding, pulping, burning, or any other means that ensures that the original Instrument cannot be reused;
10. the Depositor is responsible for any and all costs associated with obtaining a replacement Instrument in the event that the Financial Institution requests that the Depositor re-transmit an Official Image in accordance with h) above, and the original Instrument was destroyed in accordance with i) above or otherwise lost;
11. in the Financial Institution's sole discretion, electronic notices for purposes related to the Remote Deposit Service may be generated and sent to the Depositor at the Notice Contact Information after the Depositor uses the Remote Deposit Service to transmit an Official Image, including to advise the Depositor of the receipt by the Financial Institution of an Official Image. To receive such electronic notices, the Depositor must provide the Notice Contact Information required by the Financial Institution;
12. an electronic notice, if any, sent in connection with the Remote Deposit Service is for information purposes only and is no guarantee that the Official Image will be accepted by the Financial Institution or that the Account will be credited; and
13. the Financial Institution will not be liable for any cost, expense, loss, damage, or inconvenience of any nature or kind whatsoever arising as a result of use of the Remote Deposit Service, including, but not limited to, a delay in processing a Transaction or the Financial Institution requiring the Depositor to obtain another Instrument.
ONLINE PAYMENT – If the Financial Institution, through Direct Services, makes the Online Payment Service available and the Depositor uses the Online Payment Service, the Depositor acknowledges and agrees that:
1. the Online Payment Service is only available in Canadian dollars from Participating Merchants;
2. Transactions for the Online Payment Service must be initiated by the Depositor through the appropriate online payment option available on the website of a Participating Merchant;
3. as soon as the Depositor authorizes a Transaction through the Online Payment Service, and provided that there are available funds or credit, the amount of the Transaction will be withdrawn from the Account or a hold will be placed in the amount of the Transaction. The Financial Institution will hold the Transaction amount until the Participating Merchant successfully claims the Transaction or 30 minutes have elapsed, whichever comes first. The Financial Institution has no obligation to and will not pay interest on the Transaction amount. To the extent permitted at law, the Financial Institution is deemed to have a security interest in the Transaction amount from the time the Account is held until the Participating Merchant successfully claims the Transaction or the hold is removed;
4. Transactions sent and received through the Online Payment Service are subject to number and dollar limits that may change from time to time without prior notice to the Depositor;
5. the Financial Institution will not be responsible or liable for any losses or damages incurred as a result of funds held and/or limits set by the Financial Institution, Acxsys Corporation, a Participating Merchant, or a Participating Financial Institution;
6. the Financial Institution, the Participating Financial Institution, and Central 1 are entitled to pay the Transaction amount to anyone who claims to be the Participating Merchant and provides the payment authorization details within 30 minutes of the Transaction being authorized by the Depositor;
7. the Financial Institution will not be liable for losses or damages incurred as a result of a person other than the intended Participating Merchant receiving the Transaction amount;
8. if the Participating Merchant cancels, declines, or fails to claim a Transaction that the Depositor authorized, the Transaction amount will be reinstated after 30 minutes have elapsed since the Transaction was authorized. However, the Financial Institution cannot guarantee the date or time that the hold on the Transaction amount will be removed;
9. the Financial Institution, Central 1, or Acxsys Corporation may cancel a Transaction once it is authorized but before payment authorization details are sent to the Participating Merchant, if there is reason to believe that a mistake has occurred or that the Transaction is a product of unlawful or fraudulent activity;
10. once payment authorization details have been sent to the Participating Merchant, a Transaction cannot be cancelled. Payment authorization details are sent immediately after a Transaction is authorized by the Depositor;
11. all disputes, including requests for refunds, will be handled directly between the Depositor and the Participating Merchant without the participation of the Financial Institution or any other party. A refund, if any, may be received through Direct Services and Central 1 for credit to the Account, or through such other method the Participating Merchant deems appropriate;
12. the Financial Institution may refuse, in its sole discretion, to provide the Online Payment Service for the Depositor;
13. in the Financial Institution’s sole discretion, electronic Notifications for purposes related to the Online Payment Service may be generated and sent to the Depositor at the Notice Contact Information after the Depositor authorizes a Transaction, including to advise the Depositor that the Account has been debited. To receive an electronic Notification, the Depositor must provide the Notice Contact Information required by the Financial Institution;
14. an electronic Notification, if any, sent in connection with the Online Payment Service is for information purposes only and is no guarantee that the Participating Merchant will successfully claim the Transaction or that the Depositor has successfully purchased the product or service from the Participating Merchant; and

VIEWING DOCUMENTS – The Financial Institution may, in connection with Direct Services, permit the Depositor to view and print images of documents.

The Financial Institution does not offer Direct Services for Personal Accounts other than in accordance with these terms and conditions.

If there is more than one Depositor in respect of the Account, or multiple holders of the External Account, the Depositor expressly accepting these terms hereby warrants and represents to the Financial Institution that such Depositor has the lawful, express, and actual authority of all other Depositors on the Account, or holders of the External Account, and each of them:
1. to consent to the use of all and each of the Depositors’ personal information for purposes of the provision and use of PFM Services; and
2. to acknowledge, accept and agree to be bound by the terms of the Agreement and these PFM Special Terms, including Schedule I to the PFM Special Terms, so as to form a valid and binding agreement as between all of the Depositors and the Financial Institution.
The Depositor expressly accepting these terms does so on behalf of all of the Depositors and understands that these representations and warranties, and acceptance of these terms, will be relied upon by the Financial Institution in providing PFM Services. The Depositor expressly accepting these terms understands that if these representations and warranties are untrue it may cause loss, harm and damage to the Financial Institution for which that Depositor is responsible. The Depositor expressly accepting these terms hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Financial Institution from any loss, damage, costs, including reasonable legal fees, claims or other harm that may be suffered as a result of the Financial Institutions’ reliance upon these representations and warranties.
PERSONAL FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ACCOUNT LINKING CONSENT – The Depositor understands that the Personal Financial Management tool and account linking service, defined in the Agreement as the “PFM Service”, is being offered through the Depositor’s Financial Institution in coordination with Central 1 Credit Union (“Central 1”) and by Yodlee Inc. (“Yodlee”) and that it is an express requirement of Yodlee that if the Depositor wishes to subscribe, access, or use the PFM Service that the Depositor must consent to amendments and incorporation of certain terms to the Agreement with the Financial Institution as more particularly set forth in the Mandatory Provisions for Customer Agreement as set forth in the Schedule I below, (the “Mandatory Provisions”). The Depositor understands that subscription to the PFM Service, whether by linking Accounts at the Financial Institution alone or with External Accounts at Third Party institutions will require that the Depositor share certain otherwise confidential and personal information to engage the PFM Service.
PFM DISCLOSURE OF ACCESS CODE AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION TO LINKED ACCOUNTS – The Depositor authorizes the Financial Institution, Central 1, and their respective agents, representatives, and service providers, (collectively referred to solely for purposes of this PFM Special Terms as the “F.I. Affiliates”) as well as Yodlee, to collect, use, and disclose the Depositor’s personal information, including the Depositor’s personal access codes, in order to link the External Accounts to the Depositor’s Account with the Financial Institution, and periodically access the External Accounts to update the Depositor’s personal information and to perform data analytics on all linked accounts to present information and reports to the Depositor and make available to the Depositor and the Depositor’s Financial Institution, a personal financial management summary of all of the Depositor’s linked accounts and transactions thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision shall not be deemed to in any way diminish the Depositor’s duties and responsibilities to personally access and review the External Accounts and to otherwise comply with the agreements in place with Third Parties holding those External Accounts, nor shall any right of access to information granted by the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement create any obligation on the part of the Financial Institution, Central 1, or the PFM Service provider to monitor or warn the Depositor of any unusual or unauthorized account activity on any Account or any External Accounts. The Depositor understands that the institutions holding the Depositor’s External Accounts may prohibit disclosure of the Depositor’s personal access codes, and that it is the Depositor’s responsibility to confirm that the Depositor’s personal access codes can be disclosed to Yodlee for the purpose of linking the External Accounts. This will not be confirmed by the Financial Institution, the F.I. Affiliates, or Yodlee.
PFM SERVICE DISCLAIMER – The Depositor confirms that the Depositor is permitted to link the Depositor’s External Accounts, and the Depositor accepts all risk associated with the linking of the Depositor’s Financial Institution Account to the Depositor’s External Accounts, including all risk associated with disclosure of the Depositor’s personal access codes. The Depositor agrees and acknowledges that the Financial Institution or any F.I. Affiliate is not responsible or liable for any loss, harm, or damage, of any kind, related to or arising from linking the Depositor’s Financial Institution Account with the Depositor’s External Accounts, or arising from disclosure of the Depositor’s personal access codes for purposes of linking the Depositor’s External Accounts, to the extent permitted by law, subject to the Financial Institution or F.I. Affiliate being liable for the consequences of their own act and that of its representatives.
MARKETING CONSENT FOR PFM SERVICE – The Depositor understands that if the Depositor has previously provided to the Financial Institution a marketing consent to receive promotional offers, then the Financial Institution, and its agents, representatives, and service providers will use the information from the Depositor’s linked accounts to provide promotional and marketing information to the Depositor.

If the Depositor withdraws the Depositor’s consent, the Financial Institution may no longer be able to provide certain services, including, but not necessarily limited to PFM Services. The Depositor understands that certain additional integrated services offered by the Financial Institution may no longer be available.
ASSET/LIABILITY CONSENT – THE DEPOSITOR UNDERSTANDS THAT THE PFM SERVICE CAN KEEP TRACK AND PROVIDE THE DEPOSITOR WITH COMPREHENSIVE SPECIFIC ANALYSIS OF THE DEPOSITOR’S FINANCIAL SITUATION ONLY IF THE DEPOSITOR KEEPS SUCH INFORMATION COMPLETE AND CURRENT AND THAT IF THE DEPOSITOR DOES NOT DO SO, THAT THE REPORTS AND ANALYTICS PERFORMED AS PART OF THE PFM SERVICE WILL BE INCOMPLETE AND MAY CONTAIN ERRONEOUS INFORMATION.
