Mobile Remote Deposit Capture Services Disclosure and Agreement
In this Disclosure and Agreement, the words “I”, “me”, “my”, “us” and “our” mean the member that applied for and/or uses any of the Mobile Remote Deposit Capture Services (the “Services”) described in this Disclosure and Agreement. The words “you”, “your”, and “yours” mean Pacific Service Credit Union. The Account Agreement and Truth in Savings Disclosure and Electronic Funds and Agreement Disclosure is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Disclosure and Agreement (“Account Agreement”). In the event of a discrepancy between this Disclosure and Agreement or the Account Agreement, this Disclosure and Agreement will control.

Use of the Services
Following my acceptance of this Disclosure and Agreement, I am authorized by you to remotely deposit paper checks through the Mobile Remote Deposit Capture application. I can remotely deposit checks I receive to my account with you (the “Account”) by electronically transmitting a digital image of the paper checks to you for deposit. My use of the Services constitutes my acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Disclosure and Agreement. I agree to comply with the hardware and software requirements set forth by Pacific Service Credit Union, as amended from time to time, including: Android users must upgrade to the latest Android OS before using Mobile Deposit, and iPhone users must use a device with a camera and OS above 2.4 (this includes all iPods with cameras and OS above 2.4, iPad 3, and iPad 4). All other iOS devices, and Android devices running an outdated operating system, will not support mobile deposit. Upon receipt of the digital image, you will review the image for acceptability. I understand and agree that receipt of an image does not occur until after you notify me of receipt of the image via onscreen messaging and/or email notification. I understand that, in the event I receive a notification from you confirming receipt of an image, such notification does not mean that the image contains no errors. I understand that I am responsible for any information I transmit to you. You are not responsible for any image that you do not receive. Following receipt of the image, you may process the image by preparing a “substitute check” or clearing the item as an image. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you reserve the right, within your sole and absolute discretion, to accept or reject any item for remote deposit into my Account. I understand that any amount credited to my Account for items deposited using the Services is a provisional credit and I agree to indemnify you against any loss you suffer because of your acceptance of the remotely deposited check.

In addition, I agree that I will not (i) modify, change, alter, translate, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, disassemble or decompile the technology or Service, (ii) copy or reproduce all or any part of the technology or Service; or (iii) interfere, or attempt to interfere, with the technology or Service.

I agree that I will only use the Services to deposit checks for consumer purposes, specifically, for personal, family, or household purposes. Under no circumstances am I permitted to deposit a check for my business purposes. I understand that I must be a Pacific Service Credit Union member in good standing for at least thirty (30) days and be a member in good standing to be eligible to use the Services.

Compliance with Law
I agree to use the products and Services for lawful purposes and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, as well as clearinghouse rules, regulations, operating circulars, and other agreements to which you are a party that govern the Services you provide. I warrant that I will only transmit acceptable items for deposit and have handled the original items in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. I promise to indemnify and hold you harmless from any damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or other harm arising out of any violation thereof. This indemnity will survive termination of my Account and this Disclosure and Agreement.

Receipt of Deposit
Upon receipt of the digital image, you will review the image for acceptability. I understand and agree that receipt of an image does not occur until after you notify me of receipt of the image. I understand that, in the event I receive a notification from you confirming receipt of an image, such notification does not mean that the image contains no errors or that you are responsible for any information I transmit to you. You are not responsible for any image that you do not receive. Following receipt of the image, you will process the image by preparing a ”substitute check.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you reserve the right, within your sole and absolute discretion, to accept or reject an item for remote deposit. I understand and agree that I must deposit the original item. I understand and agree that even if you do not initially reject an item I deposit through the Services, you may return the substitute check you created because, among other reasons, the paying bank deems the electronic image illegible. Your failure to reject such an item shall not limit my liability to you. I understand that any amount credited to my account for items deposited using the Services is a provisional credit and I agree to indemnify you against any loss you suffer because of your acceptance of the remotely deposited check.

Rejection of Deposit
You are not liable for any service or late charges levied against me due to your rejection of any item. In all cases, I am responsible for any loss or overdraft plus any applicable fees to your Account due to an item being returned.

Items Returned Unpaid
A written notice will be sent to me of transactions you are unable to process because of returned items. With respect to any item that I transmit to you for remote deposit that you credit to my Account, in the event such item is dishonored, I authorize you to debit the amount of such item from the Account.

Unavailability of Services
I understand and agree that the Services may at times be temporarily unavailable due to your system maintenance or technical difficulties, including those of the Internet service provider, cellular service provider and Internet software. In the event that the Services are unavailable, I acknowledge that I can deposit an original check at your branches or through your ATMs or by mailing the original check to you at Pacific Service Credit Union, PO Box 8191, Walnut Creek, CA 94596-8191. It is my sole responsibility to verify that items deposited using the Services have been received and accepted for deposit by you. However, you will email notification of items that are rejected by the next business day following rejection.

Funds Availability
For determining the availability of my deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays. If I make a deposit using the Services by 3 p.m. Pacific Time on a business day that you are open, you will consider that day to be the day of my deposit. However, if I make a deposit after 3 p.m. Pacific Time or on a day you are not open, you will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day you are open. I understand and agree that, for purposes of deposits made using the Services, the place of deposit is Concord, CA. I understand that following your receipt and processing of the image, funds from the check will be made available for my withdrawal and/or use in accordance with the terms and conditions of your Funds Availability Policy previously provided to me. I understand that you may make such funds available sooner based on such factors as my creditworthiness, the length and extent of my relationship with you, transaction and experience information, and such other factors as you, in your sole discretion, deem relevant. I also understand that credit is provisional until settlement is final.

I understand and agree that I am prohibited from disclosing and agree to maintain the confidentiality of your Confidential Information.

Waiver
The failure of either party to seek a redress for violation, or to insist upon the strict performance, of any covenant, agreement, provision, or condition hereof shall not constitute the waiver of the terms or of the terms of any other covenant, agreement, provision, or condition, and each party shall have all remedies provided herein with respect to any subsequent act which would have originally constituted the violation hereunder.

Relationship
This Disclosure and Agreement does not create, and shall not be construed to create, any joint venture or partnership between the parties. No officer, employee, agent, servant, or independent contractor of either party shall at any time be deemed to be an employee, servant, agent, or contractor of the other party for any purpose whatsoever.

Check Requirements
Any image of a check that I transmit to you must accurately and legibly provide all the information on the front and back of the check at the time presented to me by the drawer. Prior to capturing the original check, I will endorse the back of the original check. My endorsement will include the account number to which I am making the deposit, including the share ID, and legibly print the words “For Mobile Deposit Only”. I agree to follow any and all other procedures and instructions for use of the Services as you may establish from time to time. The image of the check transmitted to you must accurately and legibly provide, among other things, the following information: (1) the information identifying the drawer and the paying bank that is preprinted on the check, including complete and accurate MICR information and the signature(s); and (2) other information placed on the check prior to the time an image of the check is captured, such as any required identification written on the front of the check and any endorsements applied to the back of the check. I agree to scan and deposit only “checks” as that term is defined in Federal Reserve Regulation CC (“Regulation CC”). I agree that the image of the check transmitted to you shall be deemed an “Item” within the meaning of Article 4 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in California. The image quality for the check will meet the standards for image quality established by the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, and any other regulatory agency, clearing house or association.
