The Bank of Union uses the most advanced security available on the Internet today. The same level of security used in our branches and ATM machines is also employed in our Internet Banking product. All sensitive information is encrypted and online access requires a Personal User ID and a password known only to you.

Designed and tested with and by industry experts, The Bank of Union Internet Banking state-of-the-art technologies will protect your information.
Government regulators oversee all of our banking operations including Internet Banking. In addition, government agencies regularly audit our operations to ensure we comply with the best business practices and the law.
Besides the security measures already mentioned, we employ internal bank controls to ensure optimum security for your Internet Banking.

Your Role in Security
- Choose a good User Password! You should carefully select a User Password that is hard to guess and never use a word that can be found in the dictionary.
- Memorize your User Password! Even the best password is worthless if it's written on a note attached to your computer or an entry in your checkbook.
- Don't share your Internet Banking User Password with anyone else. Your User Password is designed to protect the privacy of your banking information, but it will only work if you keep it to yourself. If you think your User Password has been compromised, change it immediately online and immediately contact the Bank. Call us at (405) 262-6577 or send us a note using the tab labeled Contact Us near the top of our web page.
- Change your User ID and User Password as often as you wish. (We recommend changing your User Password at least once each month.)
- Don't leave your computer unattended during a NetTeller session - click on "exit" to end your session.
- Once you have finished conducting your banking on the Internet, always sign off before visiting other Internet sites.
- If anyone else has access to your computer, clear your browser's cache in order to eliminate copies of Web pages that have been stored on your hard drive.
- Avoid using Public Internet Access Terminals when conducting your Internet Banking.
Important Note: While we continue to do everything possible to ensure the security of our system, we are not responsible for any breach of security that is outside of our control.
