WHAT DOES BANK OF AMERICA DO WITH YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Why?

service you have with us.

else?

Your notice says Federal law gives consumers the right to limit some, but not
all, sharing. What are other ways you share under the law?

Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, we are permitted to share with third parties,
without regard to the customer choices, in connection with situations where we
are required to disclose information, such as responding to subpoenas or tax
reporting, and for typical business activities, such as sharing to identify or
prevent fraud, to resolve customer disputes and enforce our rights, in
connection with sale of all or part of a business or with consent.

Does the Consumer Privacy Notice apply to all transactions and other activities
I perform while I'm banking online at Bank of America?
Yes. The Consumer Privacy Notice describes how the company collects, shares and
protects personal information about customers in order to conduct business. This
Notice applies to all Bank of America customers and their account transactions
and other activities performed online as well as offline. Additionally, our
Online Privacy Notice explains how we manage the privacy and security of

   ADVERTISING PRACTICES
   
   We strive to provide you with information about products and services you
   might find interesting and useful. Relationship-based ads and online
   behavioral advertising help us do that.
   
   Bank of America participates in the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA")
   self-regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising and uses the
   Advertising Options Icon on our behavioral ads on non-affiliated third-party
   sites (excluding ads appearing on platforms that do not accept the icon). Ads
   served on our behalf by these companies do not contain unencrypted personal
   information and we limit the use of personal information by companies that
   serve our ads. To learn more about ad choices, or to opt out of
   interest-based advertising with non-affiliated third-party sites, visit
   YourAdChoices layer powered by the DAA or through the Network Advertising
   Initiative's Opt-Out Tool layer. You may also visit the individual sites for
   additional information on their data and privacy practices and opt-out
   options.

personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.  
If we receive an opt-out preference signal from your device, we will honor it
and update your settings. At any time, you may manually adjust the toggle to
update your preferences.
