Protecting children on the internet is very important to us.  For that reason, First America Bank does not intentionally collect information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our web site is intended to attract anyone under 13.  Parents can be proactive and limit web site access to their children by installing filtering software.

Children’s access to the Internet can permit them to visit inappropriate web sites and be exposed to unnecessary risks.  The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) protects children under the age of 13 from the online collection of personal information.  Learn more about COPPA at the Federal Trade Commission’s website:
