SECTION A: INTERNET BANKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1.                 INTRODUCTION

1.1.             These terms and conditions (“Terms of Use”) bind you from the moment you have registered at a branch to use internet banking facilitated by the Bank (“Internet Banking”), or alternatively from the moment you first use Internet Banking, whichever occurs first.

2.                 PRODUCT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

2.1              Any transaction you carry out through the Internet Banking website relates to one of the Bank’s products. In the event of a conflict between the product terms and conditions and the Terms of Use, the product terms shall prevail.

3.                 USERNAME, PASSWORD AND SECURITY TOKEN

Registration

3.1              When registering to use Internet Banking, you will be required to:

3.1.1                       select your own username (your name or any other name that you wish to identify yourself);

3.1.2                       select a temporary PIN to allow your first Internet Banking sign-in. (This will have to be replaced immediately thereafter by a password selected by you); and

3.1.3                       select whether you wish to use a Security Token that is provided on a key ring-type device or a Security Token that is provided to a cellphone.

3.2              Both the Security Token on a key ring and Security Token on a cellphone generate Security Token passwords. You need to enter them when prompted while signing in to Internet Banking.

Sign-in

3.3              When you sign in the first time to Internet Banking, you will be prompted to select a password which will replace the temporary PIN provided to you during in-branch registration. It is your duty to ensure that this password is made up of a combination of numbers and letters. You must also activate your Security Token (whether a Security Token on a key ring or a Security Token on a cellphone) when you first sign in to Internet Banking.

3.4              On each occasion after your registration and first Internet Banking session, you will be required to enter:

3.4.1                       your username; and

3.4.2                       your password.

3.5              Once you have entered your username and password correctly you will be prompted to enter the Security Token password generated by your Security Token. Once this Security Token password has been accurately entered you can continue with the Internet Banking transactions.

Accountability and Security

3.6              You will be responsible for and accountable to the Bank with regard to any Internet Banking transactions performed with your username and password.

3.7              For the sake of your banking security, you must ensure that your username and password are not disclosed to any third party and that the Security Token on a key ring or the Security Token on a cellphone provided to you are safely kept in your possession or under your control.

3.8              You must never disclose your username, password or Security Token PIN, or give your Security Token on a key ring, or allow access to the Security Token on a cellphone, to any third party. No member of the Bank’s staff will request, either orally or in writing (including without limitation in emails or SMSs), your username, password or access to your Security Token.

3.9              While the Bank may from time to time publish guidelines to assist you in the protection of your username and password and the secure retention of a Security Token on a key ring or the cellphone on which the Security Token may be loaded, you remain solely responsible for the security of your username, password and Security Token.

3.10            The guidelines published by the Bank may also alert you to practices used by third parties to unlawfully compromise the security of your username, password and Security Token.

3.11            The guidelines cannot be absolutely comprehensive and the provision of the guidelines will not transfer any liability or obligation to the Bank that is not expressly undertaken by the Bank in terms of this agreement.

4.                 USING INTERNET BANKING

4.1              Each time you sign in to Internet Banking it will be necessary for you to enter your username and password, as well as the password generated by the Security Token.

4.2              Once signed in, in the manner described in 4.1, the Bank will assume that it is you who signed in and the Bank will execute all instructions given to the Bank during your Internet Banking session. All transactions that are executed when you are signed in are deemed to be authorised by you and that you have intended that such transactions should be legally binding. Our records of your transactions will be proof of instructions you have given us, unless you can prove the contrary.

4.3              Until you notify the Bank to deactivate your username, password and Security Token, the Bank will not be responsible or liable for any transactions that are performed without your knowledge or consent and you hereby indemnify the Bank from any loss and damages you suffer as a result. The Bank will not under any circumstances be liable for any loss or damages you may suffer as a result of a compromise of your username, password and Security Token through your actions, negligence and/or behaviour.

4.4              Internet Banking provides you with an opportunity to review transactions, and to correct mistakes or to stop the Internet Banking process before submitting transactions. The Bank will not be responsible for any loss or damage caused by your error. The Bank will also not be liable for payments made by you to unintended recipients due to the input of incorrect information, nor is the Bank responsible for the verification of the identity of recipients. The Bank cannot reverse, cancel or duplicate any erroneous payments you make to other accounts. The Bank will not be liable for any act or omission on the part of any institution where such other account is held. Without taking anything away from the general nature of this provision, you may request the Bank in advance to cancel future-dated payments and the Bank shall cancel such payments only if such cancellation is permitted or still within our control.

4.5              An instruction will only be deemed to have been received by the Bank once the Bank has confirmed receipt, or responded thereto, whichever is the earlier. If you are unsure as to whether a transaction has been processed, you should draw a statement of the account or contact the Bank before you resubmit the instruction. Resubmitting an instruction may cause the Bank to process the same transaction twice, for which the Bank will not be liable.

4.6              When you have completed an Internet Banking session you must make sure that you have signed out from the Internet Banking website.

4.7              Information communicated through unsecured links or through company or other private networks may be subject to unlawful monitoring, distortion and unauthorised access. You acknowledge that this is beyond the control of the Bank and agree that you cannot hold the Bank liable for losses suffered as a consequence of insecure communication.

5.                 ENDING YOUR USE OF INTERNET BANKING

5.1              The Bank may end your use of and access to Internet Banking at any time, for any reason whatsoever, on reasonable notice to you. Instructions given to the Bank and not yet carried out prior to such ending your access will not be affected by such ending of access.

5.2              The Bank may, however, end your use of and access to and/or prohibit your future access to use of Internet Banking immediately and without any notice to you if:

5.2.1                       the Bank determines in the exercise of its discretion that your behaviour was inappropriate, illegal or constituted misconduct;

5.2.2                       you breach these Terms of Use and/or the terms and conditions in sections B and/or C and/or D herein; or

5.2.3                       a fraudulent transaction is conducted (or attempted) directly or indirectly by you.

5.3              In the event of the Bank ending your access to Internet Banking, we will not be liable for any losses or damages, of any nature, suffered by you or a third party. Our rights in this regard are expressly reserved.

5.3             You may at any time terminate your use of Internet Banking by visiting a Capitec Bank branch with your card and the relevant supporting documents we may require from time to time, and/or submitting to Biometric identification if required and following the prescribed process, or via any other method as may be allowed by the Bank from time to time.

5.4             When you terminate your use of Internet Banking, your full indebtedness to us with respect to all transactions remains due and payable. We reserve our right to set off your full indebtedness to us against any other account held with us.

6.2              The Bank has no control over such third-party websites and will not be liable for any loss or damage you suffer, whether directly or indirectly, as a result of your use of third-party websites. You hereby waive any claim that you may have against the Bank arising out of any loss or damage that you may suffer as a result of you connecting up with third-party links or communication systems.

7.2              When you have informed the Bank of any irregularity, the Bank will on your request:

7.2.1                       refuse to process any instructions received after your request until you have obtained a new username and password or Security Token;

7.2.2                       suspend at our discretion the processing of any instructions received prior to your request;
