Please take the fol­low­ing steps to en­sure your ac­count in­for­ma­tion is pro­tected.

Why is it im­por­tant that you ad­here to these mea­sures?

Keep your security codes confidential.

• Make sure that you never disclose your security codes to anyone else. Security codes are all codes that you need to use for electronic payments, internet and mobile banking, including the codes provided by a code calculator of your bank.
• Security codes are only for yourself. You are not authorized to share them.
• Do not write down or save the codes in any way. If absolutely necessary, save your codes in a form that is recognizable to you but nobody else, so it cannot be deciphered by others. Keep the encrypted information separate from your debit card or the device that you use to perform your banking affairs.
• If you choose your own security code, make sure it is not easy to identify. Do not choose your year of birth, name of a family member or the post code of your home address.
• Make sure that no one can observe you as you type in your security codes. Never share a security code by phone or email or in any other way. If someone calls you up on behalf of your bank and asks you to provide personal data, refrain from taking any action at all, for Fincor Edge will never ask you to provide this kind of information.

Make sure that your debit card is never used by another person.

• Do not let any­one dis­tract you when you use your debit card and make sure that you do get back your own debit card
• Al­ways store the debit card in a safe place. Reg­u­larly check your debit card is still in your pos­ses­sion.

Ensure a proper protection of the equipment you use for your online banking.

• Keep the de­vice you use for on­line bank­ing up-to-date with an­tivirus soft­ware, op­er­at­ing sys­tem patches, fire­walls etc and en­sure your browser is set to the high­est level of se­cu­rity. Do not in­stall un­li­censed soft­ware.
• Se­cure the de­vice you use for con­trol­ling your bank­ing af­fairs with an ac­cess code.
• En­sure that the ap­pli­ca­tions which are pro­vided by the bank for use on the de­vice you use for your bank­ing af­fairs can­not be used by unau­tho­rized per­sons.
• Al­ways log out when you have fin­ished your bank­ing ses­sions.

Check your bank account.

• Check your state­ments and trans­ac­tion his­tory reg­u­larly, at least every two weeks, to en­sure the ac­cu­racy of your ac­counts. Please in­form Fincor Edge im­me­di­ately if you en­counter any­thing that does not seem right.

Please report incidents directly to the bank and act upon the instructions of the bank.

Con­tact the bank im­me­di­ately in any of the fol­low­ing cases oc­curs:
