Other browsers may also work, however, the accountholder must ensure the browser will provide 128 bit encryption. From time to time, we may recommend that you upgrade your browser to maintain the latest encryption technology.
You are responsible for, at your expense, obtaining, installing, maintaining and operating all Equipment that accesses the Services. You must be an authorized user of the Equipment you use. We do not warrant nor will we be responsible for any errors or failures from the malfunction or failure of your Equipment.

You will have access to all accounts in which you are an owner or a signer on. An account that requires two or more signatures to make withdrawals may not be designated as an eligible account.
3. Access Codes
During your use of the Services, you are required to enter:
· AccessID (An AccessID will be assigned to you upon the opening of your Services. You will receive this ID with your "Welcome Kit".)
· Password (A temporary Password will be assigned to you upon the opening of your Services. You will receive this password separately from your "Welcome Kit". You will be required to change this password upon your initial login to the system. A valid password consists of 6-14 characters. It must contain at least one number, at least one uppercase letter, and at least one lower case letter.)
Use of these Access Codes is the agreed security procedure to access the Services. You agree to keep these numbers and codes confidential to prevent unauthorized access to your accounts and to prevent unauthorized use of the Services. For security purposes we recommend that you do not use the same Access Codes you use on other bank products. For further security purposes, we recommend that you memorize your FSB Online Banking Password and not write it down. Anyone you give your "AccessID" and "Password" to can view your accounts, make transfers, and conduct bill payments.
4. Available Services
· Account Information You may obtain up to the minute account balance and summary information, interest information, loan payment amounts, payment due dates and certificate of deposit maturity dates. You will have access to your current statement cycle and your previous statement cycle.
· Funds Transfers
You may transfer funds between your various checking and savings accounts, and make loan payments from your savings or checking accounts. You may make "One Time Transfers" or you may set up "Recurring Transfers" on these accounts. You may make transfers occur at the earliest possible time, a future date, or on a recurring basis.
If a hold has been placed on deposits made to an account from which you wish to transfer funds, you cannot transfer the portion of the funds held until the hold expires. You agree that you will instruct us to make a transfer only when a sufficient balance is or will be available in the designated account at the time of the transfer. You understand that we will not act on any transfer from you if sufficient funds are not available in the account that you designated.
Your ability to make transfers from your savings accounts and Hi-Fi accounts is restricted by Federal Reserve Board Regulation D. For each of your savings accounts and money market accounts you are prohibited from making more than six pre-authorized transfers per month, no more than three of which may be payable to third parties, such as checks, ACH transfers or debit card entries. Pre-authorized transfers include transfers made through FSB's Online Banking. (For additional information on the limitation, please refer to the "Rules and Regulations Disclosure" Brochure.) Once an account has violated the Regulation D limit rules, FSB will automatically convert the account to a transaction type account. A transaction type account is an account that does not have limitations on the number of withdrawals or transfers, and will have different interest rates then a Hi-Fi Money Market account, or a Savings account.
· Stop Payments
You may stop payment on a check or a series of checks. You will be mailed a confirmation notice which you will be required to sign and send, or deliver, to FSB within 14 days after reporting the stop payment using this method. Your account will also be debited a Stop Payment fee of $10.00 plus applicable State Sales Tax.
5. E-mail
Regular e-mail is not a secure method of communication over the Internet and we strongly recommend you do not send confidential information by e-mail.
You agree to provide and update your E-mail address to FSB for communication purposes. FSB may rely solely on E-mail for notifications, etc. You agree that we may send you or make available to you notices, disclosures and other information electronically, including (but not limited to) notices, disclosures and other information required under the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and Regulation E of the Federal Reserve Board. We may send this information to you by posting it on our web site or by e-mail. This information is not confidential and is sent by regular unsecured e-mail. We may also send it to you by regular postal mail in writing, at the address shown in our records. If you have given us an e-mail address or postal address, we are entitled to rely on that address and assume that messages sent to that address are received by you, until you give us notice in writing that the address is no longer valid. You agree that information we post to our web site or send by e-mail or regular postal mail will be deemed delivered at the time it is posted or sent. Information you send to us is deemed delivered when we receive and review it.
