This Electronic Disclosure Consent Agreement (“Consent Agreement”) applies to all communications for deposit account products offered through an online account application by Western Alliance Bank (“Bank”). In this Consent Agreement, “we” “us" and "our" mean the Bank, and "you" and "your" means the person(s) who are completing the application, authorized signers or owners of the account(s) opened electronically on this website.
You must agree to this Consent Agreement to use the online application for Bank deposit account products prior to accepting the Deposit Account Agreement and Disclosure, Privacy Policy, Fee Schedule, and any other applicable disclosures and agreements in connection with opening a deposit account on this site (collectively, “Disclosures”). You should read this entire document carefully before consenting to the Consent Agreement as part of the online account application process. If you do not consent to receiving disclosures and documents electronically, you will not be able to use the online application in order to open deposit account(s) at this site.
