Security Statement The Credit Union understands that the security of your personal and account information is important to you. We employ several security measures, as described below, to assist us in offering services available on our website www.americaneagle.org (the "Website") and 24-Hour Online Banking, our online banking application in a secure manner. In addition, we suggest that you review our Privacy Notice and Disclosure to learn our policies and practices with regard to information we collect from or about you. Access Codes and Time-Out Feature on 24-Hour Online Banking In order to access many of the services we provide at 24-Hour Online Banking, you must have access codes (e.g., member numbers, and PINs). No one may access your account without knowing your member number and PIN. To further protect you, a session timeout feature is used. This feature will automatically log you out of your current financial service session after an extended period of inactivity on our site. Secure Browsers The Credit Union requires the use of secure browsers in order to ensure a high level of security protection for your information as it is exchanged over the Internet between your computer and the Credit Union. Typically, only high level browsers that support Secure Socket Layers ("SSL") and 128-bit encryption can access 24-Hour Online Banking, although it may be possible to enter www.americaneagle.org without it. SSL is a very complex and high end encryption technique that ensures your information is protected and can only be viewed by the intended recipient. Basically, encryption is the process of scrambling information so that it can only be reassembled in its original format by someone who has the correct encryption key to do so. When used between you and the Credit Union, this technology encrypts your personal information as you send it to us, which only the Credit Union can decrypt. Likewise, when we send personal or account information to you, this technology encrypts it, which then only you can decrypt. Different browsers display security status in different ways. For example, your browser may display a padlock or key icon in the status bar. In such case, if you are not in a secure area the key or lock may be broken, unlocked, or not shown. It is best to check with your browser’s help facility to determine how security status is displayed. If your browser does not support secure sessions, you will not be able to access the Log On page. Always use the latest version of your browser. Firewalls The Credit Union employs an additional protection mechanism known as a firewall to protect our computer systems and your information. Firewalls can be thought of as selective barriers that are designed to prevent unauthorized use of the Credit Union's systems and only let authorized traffic (i.e., you, our online banking user) through to the Credit Union's systems. Electronic Mail The 24-Hour Online Banking service offered by the Credit Union includes online forms that enable you to send and receive secure electronic mail (e-mail) to and from the Credit Union. If you use e-mail to communicate confidential information to the Credit Union, please be sure to use these online forms since other e-mail transmissions may not be secure. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Accordingly, while we strive to protect and maintain the security of the Website and your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us from the Website, and you do so at your own risk. |
