Yes, you do get your deposit back from a First PREMIER Bank secured credit card, as First PREMIER Bank will always refund the deposit in full when you close the account with no unpaid balance.
The only cases where you will not get your full deposit back from a First PREMIER Bank secured credit card are if there is a balance remaining when you close the account or if you default on your payments. In those cases, First PREMIER Bank will use the deposit to recoup what you owe them.
