Description of the Service: The Skill allows you to use your Amazon Alexa-enabled device to obtain available balance and recent transaction information on your Christian Financial Account(s) by voice command. Christian Financial grants you a non-exclusive, personal, revocable, non- transferable license to use the Skill on the Alexa Device for which it is provided and that you own or control.
During the activation process, you will input your Christian Financial online banking credentials into the Alexa system and complete the verification requirements to confirm your identity. The Alexa device uses these credentials to communicate with Christian Financial to obtain account available balance and recent transaction information on your savings, checking, loan, credit card, and mortgage accounts.
Eligibility: To access the Skill, you must:
You must register an account with Amazon by following the prompts on the Amazon Alexa app or website. You may be required to accept Amazon's terms and conditions, which are in addition to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. You are responsible for maintaining the strict confidentiality of your Amazon account details and for any activity under your Amazon account. You will be required to set a 4-digit PIN with Amazon to access your Accounts through the Skill. To protect your Accounts, this PIN should not be the same as the PIN you use with your debit and credit cards, internet banking, telephone banking, or any Accounts with us. Although you are not required to change this PIN, we recommend you change passwords on your Amazon account every 60 days. If you do not use Alexa for 30 days, it will ask you to re-link your account due to token expiration.
Communication, Privacy, and Security: It is your sole responsibility to maintain the physical security of your Alexa Device and the confidentiality of the information accessible through such devices and the Skill. You must keep your Alexa Devices, your user identification(s) and password(s), PIN(s) and other security credentials secure in the same manner as you keep secure your other personal identification numbers and passwords that your wish to keep confidential. Any person with whom you share your Alexa Devices, user identification(s) and password(s) and/or PIN(s) will be able to use the Skill to access information and services through Alexa. Christian Financial treats all communications received through the Skill as originating from you or your authorized representative regardless of who actually initiates the interaction.
The use of the Skill is voluntary. The Skill uses the public internet, third-party networks, and inside wiring in your premises to communicate by voice with us regarding your Accounts. To use the Skill, you must speak commands and questions aloud to Alexa, and you will receive responses aloud. Your communication with Christian Financial using the Skill constitutes an authorized communication by you. Once you set up your Alexa Device with the Skill, you are authorizing Christian Financial to provide information to your Alexa Device based on the Alexa Device security settings. For example, the settings on your Alexa Device may allow your Alexa Device to retrieve information about your Accounts based on only verbal requests from anyone who uses your Alexa Device, or to save information about your Accounts for easier access. By enabling the Skill on your Alexa Device, you are responsible for how the Skill is used, including any communication between Christian Financial and your Alexa Device.
Unless otherwise required by law, you will be solely responsible for commands and/or other data transmitted through the Skill, and for products or services obtained through the Skill, including those interactions initiated by an unauthorized third party.

You agree that anyone who is able to activate the Christian Financial Alexa Skill using voice commands is authorized to obtain information on your Account, and Christian Financial may provide such information without further verification. You agree that you will not share your security credentials with anyone whom you would not wish to have access to your private information. If you do not agree, then you are prohibited from using the Christian Financial Alexa Skill. It is also possible that Alexa, the Alexa Device, and/or Amazon will record your interactions with the Skill or Alexa.
