Software To Check Web Links
08/06/2001
The OCC's recent guidance on weblinking indicates that a bank needs to monitor third-party sites it links to. We have so many links that doing that manually would be horrible. I know there are some tools that can be used to check automatically. Can you point me to them? Also, what is a good frequency for doing this?
Customer Email Policy
08/06/2001
We have a message posted on our Web site that tells customers not to submit emails that contain sensitive or confidential information and that tells them not to use email for specific transaction-related requests. Our system gives us the capability of doing auto-responders to any email submitted. We have drafted an auto-responder that thanks the sender for their message, acknowledges that it was received, but basically reiterates our policy about how they shouldn't be sending confidential or sensitive information or anything about a specific transaction or account. It has been suggested that we might want to add something to it to say something like "We will not act upon email requests for funds transfers, stop payments, account closings, or fraud notifications. These must be done either in person, or by calling such and such number." I'd like to know whether you think this is a good approach or whether there's a better way to handle this. We almost considered not even posting an email address on our site at all to just stop the email.
