Web Terms and Conditions

Welcome to our website

Welcome to Atom HQ (the website part of it anyway). We’re pleased you’ve come to take a look around, but there’s just a few house rules that we need to ask you to abide by.

Before you delve head first into the world of Atom, please give these terms a good read, and if you feel the need, save a copy for future perusal.

By using our site you are accepting these terms of use. If you don’t agree with them, then we’ll have to politely ask you to leave the site.

Other documents you should read

If reading policies is your thing, we recommend reading our ‘Privacy and your data’ section below and our note on Cookies. Don’t worry, these aren’t lengthy articles filled with legal jargon, everything’s written in plain English and should only take a few minutes to read.

What happens if we need to change anything

From time to time, as we grow as a bank, we may make changes to these terms and conditions so please check back occasionally, as any changes we make are binding on you:

We may also update our site and may change the content at any time. Any of the content on our site may be out of date at any given time, but we will try our very best to keep it up to date. We’ll also try and keep it free from errors or omissions, but we can’t always promise this.

Using our site

We charge no fee to use our site so you’re welcome to use it as much as you like.

Liability is an important thing for us to talk to you about. So in the words of our leading legal lady Laura, here’s where we draw the line on our website liabilities:

Computer ailments a.k.a viruses

We ask that our site not be framed on any other site.

We do reserve the right to withdraw linking permission without notice.
