Encryption -
The latest encryption technology reduces the risk that your
confidential account information could be accessed by another
party. Encryption is a way to rewrite something in a code,
which can be decoded later with the right "key."
When you request information about your accounts, the information
is sent across the web in an encrypted format to Traders Bank. We decode your request and send the requested
information back to you in an encrypted format. When the
information reaches you, it is decoded so that you, and
no one else, can read it.
While Traders Bank works to protect your
banking privacy, you will also play an important role in
protecting your accounts. There are a number of steps you
can take to ensure that your Traders Bank account information
is protected, including:
| |
Keep your PIN to yourself. |
| |
Change your PIN frequently. PINs should
be a combination of numbers and letters. |
| |
Remain at your computer until your Traders Bank
transactions are completed then log out. Log out of
Traders Bank prior to visiting
other Internet sites. |
| |
If you notice suspicious or unusual activity
on your Traders Bank accounts,
call (304) 927-3340. |
| |
Do not change your "pseudo name"
for your Traders Bank accounts
to your account numbers. |
