4. Deposit Process

   You may forward only one (1) Check Image at a time for deposit and the Check Image must be accompanied by all requested deposit information that matches the information on the Check Image. Check Images must be properly payable to the Account Holder, contain the drawer's signature, and be properly endorsed by the Account Holder. You shall review checks to detect altered or counterfeit items and shall not deposit suspicious checks via the Service. You shall report suspicious checks to Bank for inspection. You agree to follow any and all other procedures and instructions for use of the Service that Bank may implement from time to time. If you do not satisfy the requirements for the deposit of an Eligible Check, Bank will have the right to put a hold on the nonconforming check.

5. Endorsements and Procedures

   You agree to restrictively endorse any Eligible Check transmitted through the Service as "For deposit only, account #______. [Signature of Payee/Account Holder]" or as otherwise instructed by Bank.

6. Image Quality

   Check Images transmitted to Bank using the Service must be legible, as determined in the sole discretion of Bank. Without limiting the foregoing, the image quality of the Check Image must comply with the requirements established from time to time by Bank, American National Standards Institute (ANSI), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Board, or any other regulatory agency, clearinghouse or association. You acknowledge that Check Images that do not meet the standards for deposit utilizing the Service must be physically deposited at the Bank by you.

7. Receipt of Items

   Bank reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to reject any Check Image transmitted through the Service without liability to you. Bank is not responsible for Check Images that it does not receive or that are dropped during transmission. A Check Image shall be deemed received when you receive a confirmation from Bank that we have received the Check Image. Receipt of such confirmation does not mean that the transmission was error-free, complete, or will be considered a deposit and credited to your Account. Bank further reserves the right to chargeback to your Account at any time any Check Image we subsequently determine was not an Eligible Check or properly payable. You agree that Bank is not liable for any loss, costs, or fees you may incur as a result of our chargeback of an ineligible check. Any check returned unpaid for any reason will be debited from your Account.

8. Availability of Funds

   In general, if a Check Image of an Eligible Check you transmit through the Service is received and accepted before 6:00 PM Mountain Time (Standard or Daylight, as applicable) on a business day, we consider that day to be the day of your deposit. Otherwise, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day.

9. Retention and Destruction of Transmitted Items

   Upon your receipt of a confirmation from Bank that we have received a Check Image, you agree to retain the check for thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the Check Image transmission. After 30 days, you agree to destroy the check that you transmitted as a Check Image, mark it "VOID," or otherwise render it incapable of further transmission, deposit, or presentment. During the time the retained check is available, you agree to keep it in a secure location and promptly provide it to Bank upon request.

10. Deposit Limits

    We may establish limits on the dollar amount and/or number of Check Images that you can deposit through the Service, from time to time. If you attempt to use the Service to initiate a deposit in excess of these limits, we may reject your deposit. Limits vary based on tenure, non-sufficient funds (NSF), and average monthly deposit balance. We reserve the right to modify limits from time to time. Your current limit can be located by tapping in the Amount field on the Check Deposit screen within the mobile app.

11. Errors

    You agree to immediately notify Bank of any suspected errors regarding Check Images deposited through the Service, and in no event later than sixty (60) days after the applicable Account statement is sent. Unless you notify Bank within 60 days, all deposits made through the Service shall be deemed correct, and you are prohibited from bringing a claim against Bank for such alleged error.

12. Errors in Transmission

    By using the Service, you accept the risk that a Check Image may be intercepted or misdirected during transmission. Bank bears no liability to you or others for any such intercepted or misdirected Check Images or information disclosed through such errors.

13. Fees

    You are responsible for paying the fees associated with the use of the Service. The applicable fee may change from time to time and will be disclosed to you on your mobile device prior to your deposit. By using the Service to make a deposit, you agree to pay the associated fee. Bank will collect the fees by debiting the Account into which the deposit was made.

14. Warranties and Indemnification

    You warrant to Bank that:
    1. You will only transmit Eligible Checks.
    2. You will not transmit duplicate checks.
    3. You will not re-deposit or re-present any original Eligible Check.

15. Cooperation with Investigations
