Terms & Conditions
of Your Account
AGREEMENT - This document,
along with any other documents we give you pertaining to your account(s),
is a contract that establishes rules which control your account(s) with
us. Please read this carefully. If you sign the signature card or open
or continue to have your account with us, you agree to these rules. You
will receive a separate schedule of rates, qualifying balances, and fees
if they are not included in this document. If you have any questions,
please call us.
This agreement is subject to applicable
federal laws and the laws of the state of Kansas (except to the extent
that this agreement can and does vary such rules or laws). The body of
state and federal law that governs our relationship with you, however,
is too large and complex to be reproduced here. The purpose of this document
is to:
- summarize some laws that apply to common transactions;
- establish rules to cover transactions or events which the law does
not regulate;
- establish rules for certain transactions or events which the law regulates
but permits variation by agreement; and
- give you disclosures of some of our policies to which you may be entitled
or in which you may be interested.
If any provision of this document is found to be unenforceable
according to its terms, all remaining provisions will continue in full
force and effect. We may permit some variations from our standard agreement,
but we must agree to any variation in writing either on the signature
card for your account or in some other document.
As used in this document the words "we,"
"our," and "us" mean the financial institution and
the words "you" and "your" mean the account holder(s)
and anyone else with the authority to deposit, withdraw, or exercise control
over the funds in the account. The headings in this document are for convenience
or reference only and will not govern the interpretation of the provisions.
Unless it would be inconsistent to do so, words and phrases used in this
document should be construed so the singular includes the plural and the
plural includes the singular.
LIABILITY - You agree,
for yourself (and the person or entity you represent if you sign as a
representative of another) to the terms of this account and the schedule
of charges. You authorize us to deduct these charges directly from the
account balance as accrued. You will pay any additional reasonable charges
for services you request which are not covered by this agreement.
Each of you also agrees to be jointly and
severally (individually) liable for any account shortage resulting from
charges or overdrafts, whether caused by you or another with access to
this account. This liability is due immediately, and can be deducted directly
from the account balance whenever sufficient funds are available. You
have no right to defer payment of this liability, and you are liable regardless
of whether you signed the item or benefited from the charge or overdraft.
This includes liability for our costs to collect the deficit including,
to the extent permitted by law, our reasonable attorneys' fees.
DEPOSITS - We will give
only provisional credit until collection is final for any items, other
than cash, we accept for deposit (including items drawn "on us").
Actual credit for deposits of, or payable in, foreign currency will be
at the exchange rate in effect on final collection in U.S. dollars. We
are not responsible for transactions by mail or outside depository until
we actually record them. We will treat and record all transactions received
after our "daily cutoff time" on a business day we are open,
or received on a day we are not open for business, as if initiated on
the next following business day that we are open.
WITHDRAWALS - Unless clearly
indicated otherwise on the account records, any of you, acting alone,
who signs in the space designated for signatures on the signature card
may withdraw or transfer all or any part of the account balance at any
time. Each of you (until we receive written notice to the contrary) authorizes
each other person signing the signature card to endorse any item payable
to you or your order for deposit to this account or any other transaction
with us. We may charge your account for a check even though payment was
made before the date of the check, unless we have received written notice
of the postdating in time to have a reasonable opportunity to act. We
may refuse any withdrawal or transfer request which you attempt on forms
not approved by us, by any method we do not specifically permit, which
is greater in number than the frequency permitted, or which is for an
amount greater or less than any withdrawal limitations. Even if we honor
a nonconforming request, we may treat continued abuse of the stated limitations
(if any) as your act of closing the account. We will use the date the
transaction is completed by us (as opposed to the date you initiate it)
to apply the frequency limitations. The fact that we may honor withdrawal
requests that overdraw the available account balance does not obligate
us to do so later. See the funds availability policy disclosure for information
about when you can withdraw funds you deposit. For those accounts for
which our funds availability policy disclosure does not apply, you can
ask us when you make a deposit when those funds will be available for
withdrawal.
We may require not less than 7 days' notice
in writing before each withdrawal from an interest-bearing account other
than a time deposit, or from any other savings account as defined by Regulation
D. Withdrawals from a time account prior to maturity or prior to any notice
period may be restricted and may be subject to penalty. See your notice
of penalty for early withdrawal.
OWNERSHIP OF ACCOUNT AND BENEFICIARY
DESIGNATION - These rules apply to this account depending on
the form of ownership and beneficiary designation, if any, specified on
the account records. We make no representations as to the appropriateness
or effect of the ownership and beneficiary designations, except as they
determine to whom we pay the account funds.
- Individual Account - is an account in
the name of one person.
- Joint Account - With Survivorship (And Not As
Tenants In Common) - is an account in the name of two or more
persons. Each of you intend that when you die the balance in the account
(subject to any previous pledge to which we have agreed) will belong
to the survivor(s). If two or more of you survive, you will own the
balance in the account as joint tenants with survivorship and not as
tenants in common.
- Joint Account - No Survivorship (As Tenants In
Common) - is owned by two or more persons, but none of you
intend (merely by opening this account) to create any right of survivorship
in any other person. We encourage you to agree and tell us in writing
of the percentage of the deposit contributed by each of you. This information
will not, however, affect the "number of signatures" necessary
for withdrawal.
- Revocable Trust or Pay-On-Death Account -
If two or more of you create this type of account, you own the account
jointly with survivorship. Beneficiaries cannot withdraw unless: (1)
all persons creating the account die, and (2) the beneficiary is then
living. If two or more beneficiaries are named and survive the death
of all persons creating the account, beneficiaries will own this account
in equal shares, without right of survivorship. The person(s) creating
either of these account types may: (1) change beneficiaries, (2) change
account types, and (3) withdraw all or part of the account funds at
any time.
BUSINESS ACCOUNTS - Earnings
in the form of interest, dividends, or credits will be paid only on collected
funds, unless otherwise provided by law or our policy. We may require
the governing body of the legal entity opening the account to give us
a separate authorization telling us who is authorized to act on its behalf.
We will honor the authorization until we actually receive written notice
of a change from the governing body of the legal entity.
STOP PAYMENTS - You must
make any stop-payment order in the manner required by law and we must
receive it in time to give us a reasonable opportunity to act on it before
our stop-payment cutoff time. To be effective, your stop-payment order
must precisely identify the number, date and amount of the item, and the
payee.
You may stop payment on any item drawn
on your account whether you sign the item or not, if you have an equal
or greater right to withdraw from this account than the person who signed
the item. A release of the stop-payment request may be made only by the
person who initiated the stop-payment order.
Our stop-payment cutoff time is one hour
after the opening of the next banking day after the banking day on which
we receive the item. Additional limitations on our obligation to stop
payment are provided by law (e.g., we paid the item in cash or we certified
the item).
TELEPHONE TRANSFERS -
A telephone transfer of funds from this account to another account with
us, if otherwise arranged for or permitted, may be made by the same persons
and under the same conditions generally applicable to withdrawals made
in writing. Unless a different limitation is disclosed in writing, we
restrict the number of transfers from a savings account to another account
or to third parties, to a maximum of six per month (less the number of
"preauthorized transfers" during the month). Other account transfer
restrictions may be described elsewhere.
AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION
- We may change any term of this agreement. Rules governing changes in
interest rates are provided separately. For other changes, we will give
you reasonable notice in writing or by any other method permitted by law.
We may also close this account at any time upon reasonable notice to you
and tender of the account balance personally or by mail. Notice from us
to any one of you is notice to all of you.
STATEMENTS - You must
examine your statement of account with "reasonable promptness."
If you discover (or reasonably should have discovered) any unauthorized
signatures or alterations, you must promptly notify us of the relevant
facts. As between you and us, if you fail to do either of these duties,
you will have to either share the loss with us, or bear the loss entirely
yourself (depending on whether we used ordinary care and, if not, whether
we substantially contributed to the loss). The loss could be not only
with respect to items on the statement but other items with unauthorized
signatures or alterations by the same wrongdoer.
You agree that the time you have to examine
your statement and report to us will depend on the circumstances, but
will not, in any circumstance, exceed a total of 30 days from when the
statement is first sent or made available to you.
You further agree that if you fail to report
any unauthorized signatures, alterations, forgeries, or any other errors
in your account within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement
available, you cannot assert a claim against us on any items in that statement,
and as between you and us the loss will be entirely yours. This 60-day
limitation is without regard to whether we used ordinary care. The limitation
in this paragraph is in addition to that contained in the first paragraph
of this section.
ACCOUNT TRANSFER - This
account may not be transferred or assigned without our prior written consent.
DIRECT DEPOSITS - If,
in connection with a direct deposit plan, we deposit any amount in an
account which should have been returned to the Federal Government for
any reason, you authorize us to deduct the amount of our liability to
the Federal Government from the account or from any other account you
have with us, without prior notice and at any time, except as prohibited
by law. We may also use any other legal remedy to recover the amount of
our liability.
TEMPORARY ACCOUNT AGREEMENT -
If this option is selected, this is a temporary account agreement. Each
person who signs in the space designated for signatures on the signature
card (except as indicated to the contrary) may transact business on this
account. However, we may at some time in the future restrict or prohibit
further use of this account if you fail to comply with the requirements
we have imposed within a reasonable time.
SETOFF - We may (without
prior notice and when permitted by law) set off the funds in this account
against any due and payable debt you owe us now or in the future, by any
of you having the right of withdrawal, to the extent of such persons'
or legal entity's right to withdraw. If the debt arises from a note, "any
due and payable debt" includes the total amount of which we are entitled
to demand payment under the terms of the note at the time we set off,
including any balance the due date for which we properly accelerate under
the note.
This right of setoff does not apply to
this account if: (a) it is an IRA or other tax-deferred retirement account,
or (b) the debt is created by a consumer credit transaction under a credit
card plan (but this does not affect our rights under any consensual security
interest), or (c) the debtor's right of withdrawal only arises in a representative
capacity. We will not be liable for the dishonor of any check when the
dishonor occurs because we set off a debt against this account. You agree
to hold us harmless from any claim arising as a result of our exercise
of our right of setoff.
AUTHORIZED SIGNER (Individual
Accounts only) - A single individual is the owner. The authorized
signer is merely designated to conduct transactions on the owner's behalf.
We undertake no obligation to monitor transactions to determine that they
are on the owner's behalf.
RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS -
We are not required to honor any restrictive legend on checks you write
unless we have agreed in writing to the restriction. Examples of restrictive
legends are "must be presented within 90 days" or "not
valid for more than $1,000."
PAYMENT ORDER OF ITEMS
- The law permits us to pay items (such as checks or drafts) drawn on
your account in any order. To assist you in handling your account with
us, we are providing you with the following information regarding how
we process the items that you write. When processing items drawn on your
account, our policy is to pay them according to the check number order.
The order in which items are paid is important if there is not enough
money in your account to pay all of the items that are presented. If an
item is presented without sufficient funds in your account to pay it,
we may, at our discretion, pay the item (creating an overdraft) or return
the item (NSF). The amounts of the overdraft and NSF fees are disclosed
elsewhere. We encourage you to make careful records and practice good
account management. This will help you to avoid writing checks or drafts
without sufficient funds and incurring the resulting fees.
ACH AND WIRE TRANSFERS
- This agreement is subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code
- Fund Transfers as adopted in the state in which you have your account
with us. If you originate a fund transfer for which Fedwire is used, and
you identify by name and number a beneficiary financial institution, an
intermediary financial institution or a beneficiary, we and every receiving
or beneficiary financial institution may rely on the identifying number
to make payment. We may rely on the number even if it identifies a financial
institution, person or account other than the one named. You agree to
be bound by automated clearing house association rules. These rules provide,
among other things, that payments made to you, or originated by you, are
provisional until final settlement is made through a Federal Reserve Bank
or payment is otherwise made as provided in Article 4A-403(a) of the Uniform
Commercial Code. If we receive a credit to an account you have with us
by wire or ACH, we are not required to give you any notice of the payment
order or credit.
Electronic
Fund Transfers
Your Rights & Responsibilities
Indicated below are types of Electronic
Fund Transfers we are capable of handling, some of which may apply to
your account. Please read this disclosure carefully because it tells you
your rights and obligations for the transactions listed. You should keep
this notice for future reference.
Electronic Fund Transfers
Initiated By Third Parties
– You may authorize a third party to initiate electronic fund transfers
between your account and the third party’s account. These transfers
to make or receive payment may be one-time occurrences or may recur as
directed by you. These transfers may use the Automated Clearing House
(ACH) or other payments network. Your authorization to the third party
to make these transfers can occur in a number of ways. For example, your
authorization to convert a check to an electronic fund transfer or to
electronically pay a returned check charge can occur when a merchant provides
you with notice and you go forward with the transaction (typically, at
the point of purchase, a merchant will post a sign and print the notice
on a receipt). In all cases, these third party transfers will require
you to provide the third party with your account number and financial
institution information. This information can be found on your check as
well as on a deposit or withdrawal slip. Thus, you should only provide
your financial institution and account information (whether over the phone,
the Internet, or via some other method) to trusted third parties whom
you have authorized to initiate these electronic fund transfers. Examples
of these transfers include, but are not limited to:

accepted into your checking or savings.

your checking or savings.

Right to stop payment

Call or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this disclosure
in time for us to receive you request three business days or more before
the payment is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may also require
you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after
you call.
Notice of varying amounts – If these regular payments
may vary in amount, the person you are going to pay will tell you, 10
days before each payment, when it will be made and how much it will be.
(You may choose instead to get this notice only when the payment would
differ by more than a certain amount from the previous payment, or when
the amount would fall outside certain limits you set.)
Liability for failure to stop payment of preauthorized transfer
– If you order us to stop one of these payments three business days
or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will
be liable for your losses or damages.
FINANCIAL
INSTITUTION"S LIABILITY
Liability
for failure to make transfers – If we do not complete a
transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount according
to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:
(1) If, through
no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make
the transfer.
(2) If you have an overdraft line and the transfer would go over the
credit limit.
(3) If the automated teller machine where you are making the transfer
does not have enough cash.
(4) If the terminal or system was not working properly and you knew
about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
(5) If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent
the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
(6) There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.
CONFIDENTIALITY
We will disclose
information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make:
(1) where it
is necessary for completing transfers; or
(2) in order to verify the existence and condition of your account for
a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant; or
(3) in order to comply with government agency or court orders; or
(4) as described in our privacy policy disclosure, provided separately.
UNAUTHORIZED
TRANSFERS
(a) Consumer liability.
(1) Generally, tell us AT ONCE if you believe your card and/or code have
been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible
losses down. You could lose all of the money in your account (plus your
maximum overdraft line of credit). If you tell us within four business
days, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your card without
your permission. (If you believe your card and/or code has been lost or
stolen, and you tell us within four business days after you learn of the
loss or theft, you can lose no more that $50 if someone used your card
and/or code without your permission.)
If you do NOT tell us within
four business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or
code, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card
and/or code without your permission if you had told us, you could lose
as much as $300.
Also, if your statement shows
transfers that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not tell us
within 60 days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get
back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could
have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time.
If a good reason (such as a
long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend
the time period.
(2) Additional Limits on Liability
for MasterCard® debit card, when used for point-of-sale transactions.
You will not be liable for any unauthorized transactions using your MasterCard
debit card, when used for point-of-sale transactions, if: (i) you can
demonstrate that you have exercised reasonable care in safeguarding your
card from risk of loss or theft, (ii) you have not reported to us two
or more incidents of unauthorized use within the prior twelve-moth period,
and (iii) your account is in good standing. If any of the conditions are
not met, your liability is the lesser of $50 or the amount of money, property,
labor, or services obtained by the unauthorized use before notification
to us. ‘Unauthorized use’ means the use of your debit card
by a person, other than you, who does not have actual, implied, or apparent
authority for such use, and from which you receive no benefit. This additional
limit on liability does not apply to ATM transactions or to transactions
using your personal identification number which are not processed by MASTERCARD.
(b) Contact in event of unauthorized transfer. If you
believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen, call or write us
at the telephone number or address listed in this disclosure. You should
also call the number or write to the address listed in this disclosure
if you believe a transfer has been made using the information from your
check without your permission.
ERROR
RESOLUTION NOTICE
In case of errors or questions
about your electronic transfers, call or write us at the telephone number
or address listing in this disclosure, as soon as you can, if you think
your statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about
a transfer listed on the statement or receipt. We must hear from you no
later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST statement on which the problem
or error appeared.
(1) Tell us your name and
account number (if any)
(2) Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about, and explain
as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need
more information.
(3) Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us orally, we may
require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within
10 business days.
We will determine whether an
error occurred within 10 business days (20 business days if the transfer
involved a new account) after we hear from you and will correct any error
promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90
days if the transfer involved a new account, a point-of-sale transaction,
or a foreign-initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question.
If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business
days (20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) 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. If we ask you
to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it
within 10 business days, we may not credit your account. An account is
considered a new account for 30 days after the first deposit is made,
if you are a new customer.
We will tell you the results
within three 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.

NOTICE
OF ATM/NIGHT DEPOSIT FACILITY USER PRECAUTIONS
As with all financial transactions,
please exercise discretion when using an automated teller machine (ATM)
or night deposit facility. For your own safety, be careful. The following
suggestions may be helpful.
1. Prepare for your transactions at home (for instance, by filling out
a deposit slip) to minimize your time at the ATM or night deposit facility.
2. Mark each transaction in your account record, but not while at the
ATM or night deposit facility. Always save your ATM receipts. Don’t
leave them at the ATM or night deposit facility because they may contain
important account information.
3. Compare you records with the account statements you receive.
4. Don’t lend your ATM card to anyone.
5. Remember, do not leave your card at the ATM. Do not leave any documents
at a night deposit facility.
6. Protect the secrecy of your Personal Identification Number (PIN).
Protect your ATM card as though it were cash. Don’t tell anyone
your PIN. Don’t give anyone information regarding your ATM card
or PIN over the telephone. Never enter your PIN in any ATM that does
not look genuine, has been modified, has a suspicious device attached,
or is operating in a suspicious manner. Don’t write your PIN where
it can be discovered. For example, don’t keep a note of you PIN
in your wallet or purse.
7. Prevent others from seeing your PIN by using your body to shield
their view.
8. If you lose your ATM card or if it is stolen, promptly notify us.
You should consult the other disclosures you have received about electronic
fund transfers for additional information about what to do if you card
is lost or stolen.
9. When you make a transaction, be aware of your surroundings. Look
out for suspicious activity near the ATM or night deposit facility,
particularly if it is after sunset. At night, be sure that the facility
(including the parking area and walkways) is well lighted. Consider
having someone accompany you when you use the facility, especially after
sunset. If you observe any problem, go to another ATM or night deposit
facility.
10. Don’t accept assistance from anyone you don’t know when
using an ATM or night deposit facility.
11. If you notice anything suspicious or if any other problem arises
after you have begun an ATM transaction, you may want to cancel the
transaction, pocket your card and leave. You might consider using another
ATM or coming back later.
12. Don’t display your cash; pocket it as soon as the ATM transaction
is completed and count the cash later when you are in the safety of
your own car, home, or other secure surrounding.
13. At a drive-up facility, make sure all the car doors are locked and
all of the windows are rolled up, except the driver’s window.
Keep the engine running and remain alert to your surroundings.
14. We want the ATM and night deposit facility to be safe and convenient
for you. Therefore, please tell us if you know of any problem with a
facility. For instance, let us know if a light is not working or there
is any damage to a facility. Please report any suspicious activity or
crimes to both the operator of the facility and the local law enforcement
officials immediately.
MORE DETAILED INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE ON REQUEST
Your Ability To Withdraw Funds
This
policy statement applies to all deposit accounts.
Our
policy is to make funds from your cash and check deposits available to
you immediately. At that time, you can withdraw the funds in cash and
we will use the funds to pay checks that you have written.
Please remember that even after
we have made funds available to you and you have withdrawn the funds,
you are still responsible for checks you deposit that are returned to
us unpaid and for any other problems involving your deposit.
Determining the Availability
of a Deposit
For determining the availability
of your deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays,
and federal holidays. If you make a deposit before closing on a business
day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of your
deposit. However, if you make a deposit after closing or on a day we are
not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business
day we are open.
If we cash a check for you
that is drawn on another bank, we may withhold the availability of a corresponding
amount of funds that are already in one of your accounts. Those funds
will be available at the time funds from the check we cashed would have
been available if you had deposited it.
If we accept for deposit a
check that is drawn on another bank, we may make funds from the deposit
available for withdrawal immediately but delay your availability to withdraw
a corresponding amount of funds that you have on deposit in another account
with us. The funds in the other account would then not be available for
withdrawal until the time periods that are described elsewhere in this
disclosure for the type of check that you deposited.
Longer Delays May Apply
Case-By-Case Delays
– In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit
by check available to you immediately. Depending on the type of check
that you deposit, funds may not be available until the second business
day after your deposit. The first $200 of your deposits, however, may
be available immediately.
If we are not going to make
all of the funds from your deposit available immediately, we will notify
you at the time you make your deposit. We will also tell you when the
funds will be available. If your deposit is not made directly to one of
our employees, or if we deicide to take this action after you have left
the premises, we will mail you the notice by the first business day after
we receive your deposit.
If you will need the funds
from a deposit right away, you should ask us when the funds will be available.
Safeguard Exception
Delays – Funds you deposit by check may be delayed for
a longer period under the following circumstances:
We believe a check you deposit
will not be paid.
You deposit checks totaling more than $5,000 on any one day.
You re-deposit a check that has been returned unpaid.
You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months.
There is an emergency, such as failure of computer or communications equipment.
We will notify you if we delay
your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, and we will tell
you when the funds will be available. They will generally be available
no later than the seventh business day after the day of your deposit.
Special Rules for New
Accounts
If you are a new customer, the following special rules will apply during
the first 30 days your account is open:
Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will be available
on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers,
and the first $5,000 of a day’s total deposits of cashier’s,
certified, teller’s, traveler’s, and federal, state and local
government checks will be available on the first business day after the
day of your deposit, if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example,
the checks must be payable to you (and you may have to use a special deposit
slip). The excess over $5,000 will be available on the ninth business
day after the day of your deposit. If your deposit of these checks (other
than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in person to one of our employees,
the first $5,000 will not be available until the second business day after
the day of your deposit.
Funds from all other check
deposits will be available on the 7th business day after the day of your
deposit.

- 12 debit card purchases
must post and clear your account monthly.
- At least one direct deposit

Statement
Cycle & Qualification Cycle:
Statements for KANZA
Rewards accounts will cycle with a cutoff date of the 16th unless the
16th falls on a weekend or Federal Holiday, in which case the statement
will cycle on the first business day thereafter. Qualification requirements
(i.e. 12 debit card purchases posted and cleared, and a direct deposit
or ACH Auto Debit posted and cleared) for determining if the account will
receive the high annual percentage yield (APY) are calculated the business
day prior to the statement cycle date. Therefore, the cutoff date for
the “qualification cycle” will always be the business day
just prior to the day the statements cycle. Debit card and other electronic
transactions are counted based on the date that the transaction hard posts
and clears the account rather than the date the transaction was conducted
by the customer. Any debit card purchases and direct deposit/ACH activity
occurring on the statement cycle date will be counted in the following
month’s qualification calculations. For example, if the statement
date is March 16th, debit card purchases and ACH activity that are posted
and cleared to that statement with a date of March 16th will be counted
in the next statement’s qualifications.
Numerous, very small dollar transactions discouraged - The KANZA Rewards
account is designed to provide an attractive rate of interest for customers
who choose to conduct much of their banking electronically, which is a
cost-effective method for us. KANZA Bank reserves the right to close any
customer account, upon reasonable notification, at any time and for any
reason (see terms and conditions.) Customers that attempt to qualify for
the high rate of interest yield by making numerous, very small dollar
transactions are not conducting their account activity consistently with
account expectations for this product. When customers choose to handle
their KANZA Rewards account in this manner, then KANZA Bank may choose
to close the customer account or request that the customer change their
account type to a product more consistent with their account practices.

Information about Procedures for Opening a New Account
To help the government fight the funding
of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all
financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that
identifies each person who opens an account.
What this means for you: When you open
an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other
information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see
your driver's license or other identifying documents.
Overdraft
Privilege
Service Description
It is the policy of KANZA Bank (heretofore also referred to as “the
Bank,” “we,” “our” or “us”)
to comply with applicable laws and regulations, and to conduct business
in accordance with applicable safety and soundness standards.
Our normal insufficient funds or overdraft
charge of $30* will apply to each item that would create an overdraft
on your account. The categories of transactions for which overdrafts and
resulting overdraft fees may be imposed include checks; in-person withdrawals;
ATM withdrawals, debit card transactions, preauthorized automatic debits,
electronic checks, telephone-initiated transfers, or other electronic
transfers; payments authorized by you; the return, unpaid, of items deposited
by you; the imposition of bank service charges; or the deposit of items
which according to our Funds Availability Policy, are treated as not yet
“available” or finally paid. Our insufficient funds and overdraft
charges are per item fees. Therefore, more than one insufficient or overdraft
fee could be charged against the account per day. Of course, we are not
promising to pay your overdrafts, not all accounts are eligible, and some
restrictions do apply.
We are not obligated to pay any item presented
for payment if your account does not contain sufficient collected funds.
Rather than automatically returning any unpaid or any insufficient funds
items that you may have, if your eligible account (primarily used for
personal and household purposes) has been open for at least thirty (30)
business days and thereafter you maintain your account in good standing,
which includes at least: (A) Continuing to make deposits consistent with
your past practices, (B) You are not in default on any loan obligation
to KANZA Bank, (C) You bring your account to a positive balance (not overdrawn)
at least once every thirty-five (35) calendar days, and (D) Your account
is not the subject of any legal or administrative order or levy, we will
consider – as a discretionary courtesy or service** and not a right
of yours nor an obligation on our part – approving your reasonable
overdrafts. This discretionary service** will generally be limited to
a $400 overdraft (negative) balance for Free Checking accounts, a $1,000
overdraft (negative) balance for Relationship Checking accounts, $700
overdraft (negative) balance for KANZA Rewards and other eligible personal
checking accounts. Of course, fees charged for covering overdrafts, as
well as the amount of the overdraft item, will be subtracted from any
Overdraft Privilege limit disclosed.
We may refuse to pay an overdraft for you
at any time, even though your account is in good standing and even though
we may have previously paid overdrafts for you. You will be notified by
mail of any insufficient funds items paid or returned that you may have;
however, we have no obligation to notify you before we pay or return any
item. KANZA Bank reserves the right to demand immediate payment of any
overdrafts plus our insufficient funds and/or overdraft charge(s) that
you owe us. If there is an overdraft paid by us on an account with more
than one (1) owner on the signature card, each owner, and agent if applicable,
drawing/presenting the item creating the overdraft, shall be jointly and
severally liable for such overdrafts plus our insufficient funds and/or
overdraft charge(s).
Overdraft Privilege is one more way KANZA
Bank works for you and a great reason for banking with us. You have the
option of declining this program. If you have any questions or wish to
decline this service, please call 1.888.532.5821 and ask to speak with
one of our helpful customer service representatives.
LIMITATIONS: Available
only to eligible personal checking accounts primarily used for personal
and household purposes (Business accounts and Money Market accounts are
not eligible) and we may limit the number of accounts eligible for the
Overdraft Privilege service** to one account per household.
*This fee may change. Daily overdraft fee
of $5 per business day after three (3) consecutive business days overdrawn
also applies.
**The Overdraft Privilege Service does not constitute an actual or implied
agreement between you and the Bank, nor does it constitute an actual or
implied obligation of or by the Bank. This service represents a purely
discretionary courtesy or privilege that the Bank may provide to you from
time to time and which may be withdrawn or withheld by the Bank at any
time without prior notice or reason or cause. At any time, you may request
that this service be removed from your account.
Financial
Privacy Policy Notice
Protecting your privacy is important to
KANZA Bank and our employees. We realize that our relationships with current
and prospective customers are based on integrity and trust. We work hard
to maintain your privacy and are very careful to preserve the private
nature of our relationship with you.
In order to provide our customers with
a broad range of financial products and services as effectively and conveniently
as possible, we use technology to manage and maintain customer information.
The following policy serves as a standard for all KANZA Bank employees
for collection, use, retention, and security of nonpublic personal information.
What Information We Collect
We may collect "nonpublic personal information" about you from
the following sources:
• Information we receive from
you on applications or other loan and account forms, such as name, address,
social security number, assets, and income;
• Information about your transactions
with us or others, such as your account balance, payment history, parties
to transactions, and credit card usage; and
• Information we receive from
a consumer reporting agency, such as your creditworthiness and credit
history.
"Nonpublic personal information"
is nonpublic information about you that we obtain in connection with providing
a financial product or service to you. For example, nonpublic personal
information includes information regarding your account balance, payment
history, and overdraft history.
What Information We Disclose
We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our customers
or former customers to anyone, except as permitted by law. For example,
we may disclose nonpublic personal information about you to third parties
to assist us in servicing your loan or account with us, to government
entities in response to subpoenas, and to credit bureaus. We may disclose
all of the information we collect, as described above, to companies that
perform marketing services on our behalf or to other financial institutions
with which we have joint marketing agreements.
If you decide to close your account(s)
or become an inactive customer, we will continue to adhere to the privacy
policies and practices described in this notice.
Our Security Procedures
We also take steps to safeguard customer information. We restrict access
to your personal and account information. Only those employees who need
to know your personal and account information in order to provide products
or services to you are allowed access to the data. Employees who violate
these standards will be subject to disciplinary measures. We maintain
physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with federal
standards to guard your nonpublic personal information.
This disclosure notice was prepared for
your information. Because we do not sell customer information or share
it other than described above, you do not need to contact us unless you
would like to visit more about our policies. Unlike some financial institutions
(usually non-community banks), we do not share any nonpublic personal
information that falls under the regulatory "opt out" provisions
of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.
NOTICE
OF CHANGES IN TEMPORARY FDIC INSURANCE COVERAGE
FOR TRANSACTION ACCOUNTS
All funds in a “noninterest-bearing
transaction account” are insured in full by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation from December 31, 2010, through December 31, 2012.
This temporary unlimited coverage is in addition to, and separate from,
the coverage of at least $250,000 available to depositors under the FDIC’s
general deposit insurance rules.
The term “noninterest-bearing
transaction account” includes a traditional checking account or
demand deposit account on which the insured depository institution pays
no interest. It also includes Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts ("IOLTAs").
It does not include other accounts, such as traditional checking or demand
deposit accounts that may earn interest, NOW accounts and money-market
deposit accounts.
