Electronic Signature and Communication Disclosure
This Electronic Signature and Communication Disclosure ("Disclosure") applies to the accounts that you have requested. The words "we," "us," and "our" means Equitable Bank and the words "you" and "your" means you, the individual(s) who have applied for this account. As used in this Disclosure, "Communication" means any authorization, agreement, disclosure, notice of our decision on your application, or other information related to this account including information regarding rates, fees, and other costs related to the financial product for which you are applying.
Electronic Signature Agreement
I am signing this Agreement electronically. I agree this electronic signature (hereafter referred to as "E-Signature") is the legal equivalent of my physical signature on this Agreement. Use of a keypad, mouse or other device to select an item, button, icon, or another similar act/action constitutes my signature acceptance and agreement as if actually signed by me in writing. No certification authority or other third party verification is necessary to validate my E-Signature, and the lack of such certification or third party verification will not in any way affect the enforceability of my E-Signature or any resulting contract. I consent to be legally bound by this Agreement's terms and conditions. I am authorized to enter into this Agreement for all persons who own or are authorized to access any of the accounts and such persons will be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
