Online Service E-Sign Disclosure and Consent

Online Service E-Sign Disclosure and Consent 
This Online E-Sign Disclosure and Consent (“Disclosure”) applies to all Communications for those products, services and Accounts offered or accessible Online that are not otherwise governed by the terms and conditions of an electronic disclosure and consent. PLEASE NOTE: Consenting to receive Communications under this Disclosure will not automatically enroll you in e-Statements. 

The words “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the entity with whom you have your Account, and the words “you” and “your” mean you, the individual(s) or entity identified on the Account(s). As used in the Disclosure, “Account” means the account you have with us. “Communication” means any customer agreements or amendments thereto, monthly billing or account statements, tax statements, disclosures, notices, responses to claims, transaction history, privacy policies and all other information related to the product, service or Account, including but not limited to information that we are required by law to provide to you in writing. 

Scope of Communications to Be Provided in Electronic Form 
You agree that we may provide you with any Communications that we may choose to make available in electronic format, to the extent allowed by law, and that we may discontinue sending paper Communication to you, unless and until you withdraw your consent as described below. Your consent to receive electronic communications and transactions includes, but is not limited to: All legal and regulatory disclosures and communications associated with the Account or the product or service available through Online Banking for your Account. As an example, Amplify may choose to send by e-mail legally required notification of changes to terms and conditions related to Online Banking.

  • Notices or disclosures about a change in the terms of your Account or associated payment feature and responses to claims.
  • Privacy policies and notices.
  • Monthly (or other periodic) billing or account statements for your Account(s) or such other Communications that we may include from time to time as part of the enrollment in the e-Statements program (“e-Statements”).
  • Your consent to receive electronic communications does not automatically enroll you in e-Statements. You must complete a separate enrollment to stop receiving by U S. Mail paper account statements (and any other types of Communications we may include in e-Statements).

Method of Providing Communications to You in Electronic Form 
All Communications that we provide to you in electronic form will be provided either (1) via e-mail, (2) by access to a web site that we will designate in an e-mail notice we send to you at the time the information is available, (3) to the extent permissible by law, by access to a web site that we will generally designate in advance for such purpose, or (4) by requesting you download a PDF file containing the Communication. 

How to Withdraw Consent 
You may withdraw your consent to receive Communications in electronic form by calling us at either 800-237-5087 (toll free) or 512-836-5901, or by emailing us. At our option, we may treat your provision of an invalid e-mail address, or the subsequent malfunction of a previously valid e-mail address, as a withdrawal of your consent to receive electronic Communications. We will not impose any fee to process the withdrawal of your consent to receive electronic Communications; however your access and use of Online Banking may be terminated. Any withdrawal of your consent to receive electronic Communications will be effective only after we have a reasonable period of time to process your withdrawal. 

How to Update Your Records
