During each session in which you use Simmons Bank online banking, the Bank will pass a "Cookie" to your browser for the purpose of identifying you during that session. A "Cookie" is security data that is given to an Internet browser by a web server that is returned by the browser to the server on subsequent transmissions to identify the user and encryption information. When you log onto Simmons Bank online banking, a "Cookie" enables the Bank to process multiple transactions during the same communication session without you having to provide your Simmons Bank online banking ID and password for each individual transaction. Whenever you log off of Simmons Bank online banking, or whenever you remain logged on to Simmons Bank online banking for ten (10) consecutive minutes without actively using Simmons Bank online banking to obtain new account information or conduct a transaction, the same "Cookie" is no longer accepted by the server and must be renewed through re-entry of your Simmons Bank online banking password. A new "Cookie" is used for each log-on session, so no one may use the "Cookie" to access your account without entering your Simmons Bank online banking password.
Simmons Bank online banking is online and real-time. Most transactions that occur on your account are available immediately through Simmons Bank online banking.
