We take commercially reasonable measures to protect the security of information electronically transmitted to us through the use of member service information forms integrated into our Website. However, we advise you to exercise caution when sending us an unsecured email to an IUCU internet email address. For example, the email may be intercepted by a third party or may not be immediately received by the designated person or department. Please do not use an unsecured email to send us confidential or privileged information (such as account numbers or financial information), information that may need our immediate attention, or information we have required you to send us in a signed writing or by other express means. Your emails are only secure when sent through one of our Secure Email Systems. All emails containing sensitive information (i.e. account numbers, Social Security numbers, tax returns, W-2s, etc.) must be sent by following our Secure Email instructions.

Information about how to send information to us securely is provided on our “Contact Us” page of the Website. We will not be liable to you for any losses or damages incurred as a result of the interception or unauthorized use by any third party of any information transmitted by you via insecure email or as a result of your use of unsecured email for the transmission of, or our failure to respond to email that includes, information that we have required you submit through another express means or medium.

If you communicate with us via email or via a messaging application within our Website, you may receive an automated response acknowledging that you have transmitted a message to us.

You further agree that we may disclose any information you submit (i) if we have a right or duty to do so, (ii) if we are compelled or permitted by law to do so, (iii) as directed by you, and/or (iv) as necessary to provide you with products or services you have requested. Any concepts, comments, suggestions, ideas or the like which you send to us by or through our Website, or at any email address we have provided at our Website, will be treated as being nonproprietary as to you, and we will be free to use the same or any information contained therein for any purpose whatsoever (including, without limitation, for the purposes of developing and marketing products and services) without paying any compensation to you, and the same shall be deemed our property upon receipt.

You may not qualify for certain products and services, and we reserve the right to determine eligibility for any product or service. Products and services described, as well as fees, charges, terms and conditions relating to such products and services, are subject to change without notice.

This Website and/or any products, services or information described or provided therein are not intended to be distributed or made available to or used by any person or entity in any jurisdiction, state or country where such distribution, availability or use would violate applicable law.

Securities are not credit union deposit accounts and therefore are not NCUA insured, nor are they obligations of or guaranteed by IU Credit Union. Investment securities can involve certain risks, including the potential for possible fluctuations in investment return and the possibility of loss of principal.

Consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of an investment company carefully before investing. This and other information about an investment company is contained within a prospectus which can be obtained from a registered representative of IU Credit Union Investment Services and should be carefully read before investing or sending money.

The IUCU may not condition an extension of credit or the provision of other services on either (i) the purchase of an insurance product through the IUCU or any of its affiliates or (ii) an agreement not to obtain, or a prohibition on obtaining, an insurance product from an entity not affiliated with the IUCU.

Any links from our Website to any website that is not owned, operated, controlled or maintained by us (a “Third-Party Site”) are provided strictly for convenience. If you click a link for a Third-Party Site, you will leave our Website and enter an external website owned, operated, controlled and/or maintained by a third party that is not affiliated with us and that is solely responsible for its own contractual obligations and financial condition. We (i) do not control nor are we responsible for the content, products and/or services provided by any Third-Party Site, (ii) do not endorse or guarantee the products, information, or recommendations provided by any Third-Party Site, and (iii) are not liable for any failure of the products or services advertised on or provided by any Third-Party Site.

Different products, features and services available on our Website, and/or different pages or sections of our Website, may be subject to separate terms and conditions in addition to the terms of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict, such separate terms and conditions will govern and control with respect to the corresponding product, feature, service, page or section. This Agreement is not intended to affect or amend any agreement or contract between you and any IUCU company for the provision of a particular financial product or service, and our relationship with you as to such particular financial product or service shall be governed by the written terms of the agreement or contract contemplating such financial product or service.

This Agreement constitutes the current, sole and entire agreement between you and us with respect to the use of our Website, and any and all prior terms of use with respect to the use of our Website are superseded by this Agreement. You acknowledge and agree that no practice or course of dealing between you and any IUCU company, nor any oral representations by any IUCU representative, which vary the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall constitute a modification or amendment of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No failure by us to exercise, and no delay by us in exercising, any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed automatically reformed to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to render it valid and enforceable under applicable law; however, if such reformation of the provision is not reasonably possible, the provision shall be deemed severed from this Agreement with respect to the person or circumstances as to which such provision shall be invalid or unenforceable, and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana, without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions or your actual state or country of residence, and applicable federal law. For purposes of any action, suit, or proceeding arising out of this Agreement, you expressly submit to the jurisdiction of all federal and state courts located in the State of Indiana, and agree that we, in our discretion, may require that Bloomington, Indiana, be the venue for any legal proceedings arising out of or related to this Agreement. You waive and agree not to assert in any action, suit or proceeding that you are not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, that the action, suit or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that venue of the action, suit or proceeding is improper. In the event that you should have any claim or cause of action against us arising out of your use of the Website, you agree that, regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, such claim or cause of action must be initiated or filed in a court of competent jurisdiction within one (1) year after accruing or be forever barred. If you have agreed to Arbitration per your Membership and Account Agreement or any other Agreements with the IUCU, then the Arbitration provisions shall govern in place of any statements here above.
