We will notify you of any material change via e-mail, US mail, or on our website(s) by providing a link to the revised Agreement/changes or by an online secure message. You will be prompted to accept or reject any material change to this Agreement the next time you use the Services after Liberty Savings Bank has made the change. Your acceptance of the revised terms and conditions along with the continued use of the Services will indicate your consent to be bound by the revised Agreement. Further, Liberty Savings Bank reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions from the Services.

You authorize Liberty Savings Bank to deduct any such fees from any Liberty Savings Bank account in your name. Fees will not be charged during any free trial period or other promotion.
- Eligible Items. You agree to scan and deposit only “checks” as that term is defined in Federal Reserve Regulation CC (“Reg. CC”).

- Checks payable to any person other than the person that owns the account into which the check is being deposited.
- Checks written off of any account that you own or on which you are a signer.
- Checks containing an alteration on the front of the check or item, or which you know or suspect, or should know or suspect, are fraudulent or otherwise not authorized by the owner of the account on which the check is drawn.

- Receipt of Items. We reserve the right to reject any item transmitted through the Services, at our discretion, without liability to you. We are not responsible for items we do not receive or for images that are dropped during transmission. An image of an item shall be deemed received when you receive a confirmation from Liberty Savings Bank that we have received the image. Receipt of such confirmation does not mean that the transmission was error free, complete or will be considered a deposit and credited to your account. We further reserve the right to charge back to your account at any time; any item that we subsequently determine was not an eligible item. You agree that Liberty Savings Bank is not liable for any loss, costs, or fees you may incur as a result of our chargeback of an ineligible item.

Otherwise, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open. Funds deposited using the Services will generally be available two (2) business days after the business day of your deposit. We reserve the right to further delay availability of items submitted through the Services at our discretion.
- Disposal of Transmitted Items. Upon your receipt of a confirmation from Liberty Savings Bank that we have received an item that you have transmitted, you agree to retain the item for at least thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the image transmission.

During the time the retained item is available, you agree to promptly provide it to Liberty Savings Bank upon request.
- Deposit Limits. We may establish limits on the dollar amount and/or number of items or deposits from time to time. If you attempt to initiate a deposit in excess of these limits, we may reject your deposit. If we permit you to make a deposit in excess of these limits, such deposit will still be subject to the terms of this Agreement, and we will not be obligated to allow such a deposit at other times. The current daily dollar limit is $1,500 per business day. Daily deposit limits may vary for users of other services.
