All terms that are not defined in this Agreement but which are defined in Regulation E shall have the same meaning when used in this section.
- (1)Your Liability (Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your password has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down.

If you tell us within 2 business days, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your password without your permission. (If you believe your password has been lost or stolen, and you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your password without your permission.)If you do NOT tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your password, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your password without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.(2) Contact in event of unauthorized transfer. If you believe your password has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission, call us at 1-888-725-2207, or 1-207-743-7986 between the hours of 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., Saturday, or write us at: Norway Savings Bank Attn: Eservices, PO Box 347, Norway, ME 04268.

If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the notice of error involves a transfer that was not initiated in a state, resulted from a point-of-sale debit card transaction or occurred within 30 days after the first deposit to an account) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days (20 business days if the transfer involves a transfer to or from an account within 30 days after the first deposit to the account was made) for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation.

By using this feature of the Service, you expressly authorize Q2 and such Third-Party Providers to access and use this Account Information for purposes of providing the Service. Q2 makes no effort to review the Account Information for any purpose, including but not limited to accuracy, legality or non-infringement.
Q2 and its Third-Party Providers cannot always foresee or anticipate technical or other difficulties which may result in failure to obtain Account Information or loss of Account Information, personalization settings or other service interruptions. Q2 cannot and does not assume responsibility for the timeliness, accuracy, deletion, non-delivery or failure to store any Account Information, communications or personalization settings. For example, when displayed through the Service, Account Information is only as current as the session in which it is accessed, which reflects when the Account Information is obtained from the Existing Financial Institutions. Such Account Information may be more up-to-date when obtained directly from the relevant Existing Financial Institutions. You can refresh your Account Information through the Service, in the manner prescribed in the associated instructions.

You agree (i) you will not use the Service for any purpose that is unlawful or is not permitted, expressly or implicitly, by these Terms or by any applicable law or regulation, (ii) that use of the Service is at your sole risk, that any material and/or data downloaded or otherwise obtained through the use of the Service is at your own discretion and risk and that you will be solely responsible for any damages, including without limitation damage to your computer system or loss of data that results from the download of such material and/or data, (iii) you will not use the Service in a European Union Member State, (iv) you are not a citizen of a European Union Member State, and (v) to use the Service only for permitted uses described in Section 6 and otherwise in accordance with the Terms and any one-line user instructions.
Accurate records enable Q2 to provide the Service to you. In order to use the Service, you must provide true, accurate, current and complete Account Information about your accounts maintained at Existing Financial Institutions, as requested in our “add account” setup forms, and you may not misrepresent your Account Information. In order for the Service to function effectively, you must also keep your Registration Information (as defined below) up to date and accurate. If you do not do this, the accuracy and effectiveness of the Service to you will be affected.

Electronic alerts will be sent to the email address you have provided as your primary email address for the Service. If your email address or your mobile device’s email address changes, you are responsible for informing us of that change. Changes to your email address will apply to all of your alerts.

Anyone with access to your email will be able to view the content of these alerts. At any time, you may disable future alerts.
Automatic alerts may be sent to you following certain changes made online to your account, such as a change in your Registration Information. Q2 may from time to time provide automatic alerts and voluntary account-related alerts. Voluntary account alerts may be turned on by default as part of the Service. They may then be customized, deactivated or reactivated by you. These alerts allow you to choose alert messages for your accounts. Q2 may add new alerts from time to time or cease to provide certain alerts at any time upon its sole discretion. Each alert has different options available, and you may be asked to select from among these options upon activation of your alerts service. You understand and agree that any alerts provided to you through the Service may be delayed or prevented by a variety of factors. Q2 endeavors to provide alerts in a timely manner with accurate information. However, we neither guarantee the delivery nor the accuracy of the content of any alert. You also agree that neither Q2 nor Norway Savings Bank shall be liable for any delays, failure to deliver, or misdirected delivery of any alert; for any errors in the content of an alert; or for any actions taken or not taken by you or any third party in reliance on an alert.

20. Governing Law. These Terms, and your relationship with Q2 under these Terms, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without regard to its conflict or choice of law provisions.

In addition, we and you agree that we and you will resolve any disputes, claims, or controversies on an individual basis, and that any claims brought under these Terms and/or in connection with the Service will be brought in an individual capacity, and not on behalf of, or as part of, any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. We and you further agree that we and you shall not participate in any consolidated, class, or representative proceeding (existing or future) brought by any third party arising under these Terms and/or in connection with the Service. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this section is void or unenforceable for any reason or that arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the disputes, claims, or controversies will not be subject to arbitration and must be litigated in the state or federal courts located in Travis County, Texas.
22. Arbitration. We and you agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions (despite the choice of law provision in Section 20 above).
In the event of a dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or in connection with your access to, and/or use of the Service, and/or the provision of content, services, and/or technology on or through the Service, we or you must give the other notice of the dispute, claim, or controversy which notice will include a brief written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the dispute, claim, or controversy, and the relief requested. You must send any such notice to us by calling 866-410-6761, option 2 AND by U.S. Mail Q2 Software, Inc., 10355 Pecan Park Blvd., Austin, TX 78729. To the extent that we have your contact information, we will send any such notice to you by U.S. Mail or to your email address. We and you will attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy through informal negotiation within thirty (30) days from the date that any notice of dispute, claim, or controversy is sent. We and you shall use reasonable, good faith, efforts to settle any dispute, claim, or controversy through consultation and good faith negotiations. After thirty (30) days, we or you may resort to the other alternatives described in this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the notice and thirty (30)-day negotiation period required by this Section shall not apply to disputes, claims, or controversies concerning patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, trade secrets, and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Service.
Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Section, any dispute, claim, or controversy of any kind between us and you arising under these Terms or in connection with your access to, and/or use of the Service, and/or the provision of content, services, and/or technology on or through the Service (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory), if unresolved through informal discussions within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice (as described in the immediately preceding paragraph), shall be resolved by binding arbitration to be held in the state of your billing address. Notwithstanding the foregoing, disputes, claims, or controversies concerning patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, trade secrets, and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Service shall not be subject to arbitration.
For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in Austin, Texas, United States of America, and we and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court in Austin, Texas to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms, and administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and fee information are available at “http://www.adr.org,” or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.
We shall bear the cost of any arbitration filing fees and arbitration fees for claims of up to $10,000 unless the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be frivolous. You are responsible for all other additional costs that you may incur in the arbitration including, but not limited to attorneys’ fees and expert witness costs unless we are otherwise specifically required to pay such fees under applicable law. For claims that total more than $10,000, the AAA Rules will govern payment of filing fees and arbitration fees. The decision of the arbitrator will be in writing and binding and conclusive on us and you, and judgment to enforce the decision may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. We and you agree that dispositive motions, including without limitation, motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment will be allowed in the arbitration. The arbitrator must follow these Terms and can award the same damages and relief as a court, including injunctive or other equitable relief and attorneys’ fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we and you agree not to seek any attorneys’ fees and expert witness costs unless the arbitrator finds that a claim or defense was frivolous or asserted for an improper purpose. We and you understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, we and you would have the right to sue in court. We and you further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
If your claim is solely for monetary relief of $25,000 or less and does not include a request for any type of equitable remedy, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely based on documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing under the AAA Rules.
You may choose to pursue your claim in small claims court where jurisdiction and venue over us and you otherwise qualify for such small claims court and where your claim does not include a request for any type of equitable relief.
You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by these arbitration provisions by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to us by calling 866-410-6761, option 2 AND by U.S. Mail to Q2 Software, Inc., 10355 Pecan Park Blvd., Austin, TX 78729. The notice must be sent within the later of thirty (30) days of your first use of the Service or within thirty (30) days of changes to this Section; otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate any disputes, claims, or controversies in accordance with the terms of this Section. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by them. If you do not affirmatively elect to opt out as described above, your use of the Service will be deemed to be your irrevocable acceptance of these Terms and any changes/updates to this Section or otherwise.
If any clause within these arbitration provisions is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that specific clause will be severed from these arbitration provisions, and the remainder of the arbitration provisions will be given full force and effect. In the event some or all of these arbitration provisions are determined to be unenforceable for any reason, or if a claim, dispute, or controversy is brought that is found by a court to be excluded from the scope of these arbitration provisions, we and you agree to waive, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any trial by jury.
23. Assignment. These Terms and your access and use of the Service is not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with Q2’s prior written consent. Q2 may transfer, assign or delegate these Terms and its rights and obligations without consent.
24. Miscellaneous. If any portion of these Terms is deemed unlawful, void or unenforceable by any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, these Terms as a whole shall not be deemed unlawful, void or unenforceable, but only that portion of these Terms that is unlawful, void or unenforceable shall be stricken from these Terms. If Q2 does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in these Terms (or which Q2 has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of Q2’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to Q2. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in these Terms shall survive your acceptance of these Terms and the termination of these Terms. These Terms represent the entire understanding and agreement between you and Q2 regarding the subject matter of the same and supersede all other previous agreements.
