Introduction:

First Bank Midwest is committed to providing equal opportunity to people with disabilities, including equal access to its website. With its rapid proliferation, information technology is increasingly the medium for banking services.

This policy is a living document that will change over time. Opportunities for education and communication will occur whenever changes to the policy take place.

Policy Statement:

First Bank Midwest is committed to providing a website that is as accessible as our physical locations. We have implemented the recommendations of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) as published by the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). There is no definitive test nor certification of conformance to Level A or Level AA of the WCAG, but we use an ongoing method for assessing and mitigating accessibility issues.

If you find a part of the site that you feel does not conform to WCAG guidelines, please use one of the following contact methods to let us know so that we can rectify it.

Phone: 1-800-548-8138

Email: communications@fbmw.com

First Bank Midwest has used WCAG for compliance because they are determined by the W3C, the consortium that makes all guidelines for the Internet, worldwide.

First Bank Midwest strives to make every page accessible to users but cannot guarantee that every page fully meets guidelines.

Some pages have partial conformance due to the use of 3rd party vendors. As such First Bank Midwest does not claim full site-wide conformance, instead a partial conformance, as defined by WCAG 2.2 Level AA. We cannot ensure conformance of third-party plug-ins and widgets.

A public statement regarding the First Bank Midwest approach to accessibility, as well as contact information to Customer Support for assistance, is available on the First Bank Midwest website.
