    User ID and Password

You will be asked to provide a valid email address as your personal User ID, and a Password consisting of alpha-numeric characters, which you will use to obtain access to your Account(s) at Regional. User IDs and Passwords must not contain any special characters (i.e. asterisk*, or colon :). If you have multiple accounts, you will use one User ID and password to access all accounts. You authorize us to follow any instructions entered through the Service using your User ID and Password. Because your User ID and Password can be used to access money in your Account(s) and to access information about these Account(s), you should treat your User ID and Password with the same degree of care and secrecy that you use to protect your ATM Security code and other sensitive financial data. We may ask you to change your User ID and Password from time to time for security reasons. You agree not to use any language that is abusive, harassing, libelous, defamatory, obscene, or threatening when defining your User ID or any other personalization of your Account(s).

    Additional Security Measures

In addition to your User ID and Password, we may ask you to create and provide responses to additional authentication questions that only you and Regional Corporation will know in order to verify your identity. You will be asked to create these questions and responses one time and will be presented with a question and prompted for a response at random when you access the Service. These questions and your correct responses help us to provide stronger protection of your account information. We reserve the right to prevent access to the Service for security reasons or if we suspect fraud. You agree to cooperate with us in the investigation and prosecution of any person who has obtained and used your User ID and Password without your authorization. Regional does not and will not assume any liability for unauthorized or fraudulent use of the Service.

You agree not to give or make available your User ID, Password, or Account number(s) to any person who is not authorized to access your Account(s). If someone to whom you have granted authority to use your User ID and Password exceeds such authority, you are fully liable for all transfers and payments made by such person until you have notified us that you have terminated the authority granted to such person and have given us a reasonable period of time to act upon such notice. We may require that you put such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, we may require you to immediately change your User ID and Password, and to identify the person or persons you believe to have exceeded such authority.

We reserve the right to refuse to allow you to use the Service. Any user of this Service shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including the laws and regulations administered by the U.S. Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).
