Question: During registration I enabled delivery options for a One-Time Passcode (OTP), what is a One-Time Passcode?
Answer: A One-Time Passcode is an additional password that you can choose to have sent to you by text message, phone, or email.  When an additional passcode is needed, such as when you are accessing your accounts from a “public” computer, you will be able to select which delivery method you would like to use from the methods you enabled.  If you do not have access to your phone or email, you can choose to answer the Challenge Questions you selected during account set-up instead.

Question: What is the difference between setting a computer as Private or Public?
Answer: Our added layers of security help protect you and your account information, by requiring extra information to verify that it’s really you accessing your accounts.  Should you have a personal computer that you use often to access Bangor Online, which you trust, you can set that computer as Private.  Computers that are set as Private will only require your Bangor Online ID and password to login.
