Access Codes
To use our Online PnP commerce service, you must use the access codes you establish or provide for you. Keep them confidential to prevent unauthorized use or loss to your accounts. Anyone to whom you give your access codes will have full access to your accounts even if you attempt to limit that person’s authority. Additionally, that person will have full access to any other of your accounts which are accessed by those access codes, even if those accounts are in your name with another person.
None of our employees or employees of our affiliates will contact you via phone or e-mail requesting your access codes. If you are contacted by anyone requesting this information, please contact us immediately at our phone number shown in the section below entitled Notify us IMMEDIATELY for Unauthorized Transactions.
Protecting Your Personal Information
In addition to protecting your access codes, you should also take precautions to protect your personal identification information. This information by itself or together with account information may allow unauthorized access to your accounts. You should treat personal information with the same level of care that you would for your account information. You should also protect and secure all information and data stored in any personal computer or other equipment you use to access our Online PnP commerce service.
Individual Agreement for Online PnP commerce Service
We do not have joint agreements for our Online PnP commerce service. If you are an individual or sole proprietor, you are the only customer under this agreement. However, any of the accounts to which you have access through our Online PnP commerce service may be jointly owned with, or joint obligations with, others. If joint account owners/obligors each obtain our Online PnP commerce service—meaning that each of you will have separate access codes—this will be identified as two separate Online PnP commerce services.
Industrial, Government Accounts
We will tell you which types of accounts qualify for our Online PnP commerce service. These will be one or more accounts with us, and may include accounts at other PnP institutions for certain services. For accounts with us, you must be a named owner/obligor on the account in our records for it to qualify. For certain services we provide through our Online PnP commerce service, you may be able to access accounts at other PnP institutions. You agree to provide us with any PnP authority we require before we permit access to any qualifying account.
