Common use of Unauthorized Transactions and Errors Clause in Contracts

Unauthorized Transactions and Errors. If you discover an error, forgery, alteration or other unauthorized activity involving your account, you must notify us immediately by telephone and promptly in writing of the relevant facts, including a description of the transaction or error and the identity of any suspected perpetrator. You agree to maintain a current check register and to carefully and promptly review all statements and notices we send or make available to you. Your statements will be deemed to provide sufficient information about your checks and other transactions for you to determine whether there was an error or unauthorized transaction if the statements provide you with the check or transaction number, the amount, and the date of payment. You are in the best position to discover and report any errors or unauthorized transactions involving your account. If you fail to notify us within a reasonable time (not exceeding 14 days after your statement date) of an unauthorized signature, alteration, forgery, counterfeit check or other unauthorized transaction involving any of your accounts, we will not be responsible for subsequent unauthorized transactions by the same wrongdoer. Without regard to care or lack of care of either you or us, if you do not discover and report an error or an unauthorized signature, alteration, forgery, counterfeit check, or other unauthorized debit to your account within 60 days after the date of your statement or the date the information about the item or transaction is made available to you, whichever is earlier, you are precluded from asserting the error or unauthorized transaction against us. (Note: Different notification and liability rules apply to certain electronic fund transfers. See the “Electronic Fund Transfers; Other Rights & Terms” section.) If you claim a credit or refund because of an error or unauthorized transaction, you agree to provide us with a declaration containing whatever reasonable information we require regarding your account, the transaction, and the circumstances surrounding the claimed loss. We must receive your declaration within 10 days of our request. If applicable, you also agree to make a report to the police and to provide us with a copy of the report, upon request. We will have a reasonable period of time to investigate the circumstances surrounding any claimed loss. During our investigation, we will have no obligation to provisionally credit your account, unless otherwise required by law (e.g., in connection with certain consumer electronic fund transfer services). Our maximum liability will never exceed the amount of actual damages proven by you. Our liability will be reduced: (a) by the amount of the loss that is caused by your own negligence or lack of care; (b) to the extent that damages could not have been avoided by our exercise of ordinary care; and (c) by any loss recovery that you obtain from third parties (apportioned in accordance with this provision). We will not be liable for any loss that is caused in part by your negligence if we acted with ordinary care. Unless otherwise required by law, we will not be liable for incidental, special or consequential damages, including loss of profits and/or opportunity, or for attorney’s fees incurred by you, even if we were aware of the possibility of such damages. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, our relationship with you will be that of debtor and creditor. That is, we owe you the amount of your deposit. No fiduciary, quasi fiduciary or other special relationship exists between you and us. We owe you a duty of ordinary care. Any internal policies or procedures that we may maintain in excess of reasonable commercial standards and general banking usage are solely for our own benefit and shall not impose a higher standard of care than otherwise would apply in their absence. There are no third party beneficiaries to this agreement. (Note: Different notice and liability rules apply to certain electronic fund transfers.
