Important Information About Procedures for Opening a New Account

To help the Government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.

What this means to you is that when you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, telephone number, date of birth, Social Security number, employer, driver’s license number or picture ID. We may also ask to see a copy of these identifying documents.

For your protection, the system will automatically log you off if there is no activity for 30 minutes. All information will be lost if this occurs.
