Security Statement

Slovenian Savings & Loan Association is committed to safeguarding your confidential information. Many customers have expressed a concern about the security of online banking and other online services offered through our Website. This is a pertinent and valid concern. We take our responsibility as caretaker of your confidential information and accounts very seriously. Our commitment to the security and confidentiality of handling customer information remains of utmost importance with our online services. Slovenian Savings & Loan Association uses a combination of security features to ensure protection of your data.

• All of our online banking services require an identification number or user name and a self-selected password as our first line of security.
• We utilize state-of-the-art encryption of all data transmitted between your computer and our secure site. Browsers, or the software you use to browse or access the Internet, employ an encryption method called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). SSL is software-based security protocol used to encode or scramble data before it is transmitted over the Internet. Without the corresponding “decoder”, the transmission resembles nonsense text and would not be readable. SSL enables your browser to connect to our secure site and transparently negotiate a secure communication channel. Once this connection has been made, information can be exchanged with no chance of a third party intercepting the data. As an added security feature, a firewall, or a separate computer, guards Slovenian Savings and Loan’s central computers. Only authorized transactions pass through the firewall to the banking system.
• Internet browsers today offer various levels of encryption.
• Your browser will indicate if you are in a secure session. Look for the padlock or key on the bottom of your screen. If the padlock is “locked” or the key is not broken, you are in a secure session.
  • Also, you are in a secure session if the website address indicates https:// at the beginning of the address, versus http://.

• Slovenian Savings & Loan Association continues to enhance and maintain prudent security standards to protect against unauthorized access or use of your confidential information.
• www.sloveniansavings.com is the address for Slovenian Savings & Loan Association’s website. https://my.sloveniansavings.com/login is the address for Slovenian Savings & Loan Association’s Banno website. Use caution if a website looks like one of these addresses, but is not the exact same address.
  • Access Banno by either typing Slovenian Savings & Loan Association’s website and clicking on the link for Internet Banking, or by typing in Banno’s website into your web browser.
  • Never go to a website from a link in an email and enter your personal details.

• Slovenian Savings & Loan Association will NEVER request personal information from you via email. For that matter, no reputable organization should request personal information from you via email.
  • If you receive an email that looks like it came from us that requests your personal information, do not respond to it.
  • If an email requests your personal information, don’t reply to it.
  • Be wary of emails that ask you to submit any personal information or one that sends you personal information and asks you to verify or update it. Tell us about the email by calling 814-535-7658 or bring a copy of the email to your nearest Slovenian Savings & Loan Association branch.
  • Personal information includes: Social Security number, ATM or debit card PIN numbers or access codes, credit card numbers or expiration dates, user IDs and/or passwords, bank account numbers, or mother’s maiden name.
• Ensure the security of your information by following these steps:
  • Do not reveal your username and password to anyone.
  • Change your passwords or PINs often.
  • Use both letters and numbers and both upper and lower case letters if possible.
  • Use a different password if you have multiple online account access points.
  • Log off Banno or any other online financial service before leaving your computer or accessing other web sites.
  • Review your bank account statements as soon as you receive them to determine if there are any unauthorized charges.

Slovenian Savings & Loan Association has taken reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that your confidential information is secure. We are not liable for a breach of security that occurs for reasons outside of our control.
