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.

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, such as your driver’s license, Social Security number, or tax identification number. 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.
