Online Behavioral Advertising

Personal information collected from and about you online, as described in this Notice, is used and shared to deliver advertising and marketing, including prescreened offers of credit, which may be of interest to you.

We present tailored ads to you:

• On our Sites and Mobile Apps through ads that appear as you sign on or off of your online accounts.
• In off-line channels such as financial centers, call centers, and through direct marketing (for example email, mail, phone).
• On third-party sites and mobile apps not affiliated with Bank of America.

How we tailor ads to you

• Advertising on our sites, mobile apps and off-line channels such as financial centers, call centers, and through direct marketing (for example email, mail, phone): We may use personal information about your activities on our Sites and Mobile Apps, such as pages visited and key words entered, to help determine which of our ads or offers may be of interest to you. We may use personal information about your relationship with us (such as types of accounts, transactional information or the location in which you bank) to help determine which advertisements or offers to present to you.
• Advertising on non-affiliated third-party sites and mobile apps: Bank of America contracts with advertising companies to advertise our products and services on sites and mobile apps not affiliated with us. We may use personal information we have collected or that you have provided to assist our non-affiliated third-party sites and mobile apps to select bank ads or offers that may appeal to you, display them to you and monitor your responses. Non-affiliated third-party sites and mobile apps are not subject to Bank of America Privacy Notices.

How you can opt out of Online Behavioral Advertising

• Advertising on Non-Affiliated Third-Party sites: 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 Digital Advertising Alliance 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.

Industry standards continue to evolve around web browser "do not track" signals or configurations set in your internet browser. In addition to the advertising opt-out options above, Bank of America captures opt out preference signals, and to the extent users have rights under applicable law, treats them as valid requests to opt out of sale/sharing at the browser level.

Reminder

Please note that if you opt out of this advertising:

• You may still receive general advertising from Bank of America.
• When accessing online account servicing areas (i.e. after login), such as Online Banking, Merrill Edge or MyMerrill, you may receive tailored content and advertising based on your account relationships.
• Financial Advisors/Client Managers may continue to use personal information collected online as described in this Notice to provide details on products and services in accordance with account agreements.
• In order for online behavioral advertising opt outs from our Sites and Mobile Apps and on other sites to work on your device, your browser must be set to accept cookies.
• If you delete cookies, buy a new device, access our Sites and Mobile Apps or other sites from a different device, login under a different screen name, or change web browsers, you will need to opt out again.

Additional Information

Third-Party Data Sharing

Some companies may offer aggregation websites and services that allow you to share your data with them in order to consolidate your account information from different sources (such as your accounts with us or with other financial institutions) so that you can view it in one location or perform actions related to your accounts using their services. To do this, a third-party may request you to authorize access to your Bank of America accounts by providing your Bank of America user ID and password or by providing your information-sharing consent directly to Bank of America.

• The third-party may access, on your behalf, information about you, your Bank of America relationship, and your accounts at Bank of America.
• You should use caution and ensure that the third-party has appropriate policies and practices to protect the privacy and security of any personal information you provide or to which they are gaining access.
• Use of your information by the third-party is governed by your agreement with them, not by Bank of America. We recommend reviewing the third party's policies before sharing your personal information to understand how they will use and store your account information. For example, look for whether they sell any of your personal information, and if your information will be transferred, processed, or stored outside of the United States.
• We are not responsible for the use or disclosure of any personal information accessed by any company or person to whom you provide your site user ID and password.
• If you share your Bank of America user ID, password or other information about your accounts with others, we will consider that you have authorized any transaction or action initiated by using the access information you provide.
• If you decide to revoke the authority you have given to a third-party, we strongly recommend that you change your Bank of America password to ensure that the third-party cannot continue to access your account.
• You may revoke your consent for certain third parties through the Security Center within Bank of America Online Banking.

Social Media

Bank of America engages with customers on social media platforms such as Facebook®, X®, YouTube® and LinkedIn®.

• Any content you post on official Bank of America managed social media pages, such as pictures, information, opinions or any personal information that you make available to other participants on these social platforms, is subject to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policies of those respective platforms.
• When interacting with official Bank of America social media pages, Bank of America's privacy notices, Social Media User Terms and Community Guidelines may apply.
• Please review the privacy policy for the specific social media service you are using to better understand your rights and obligations with regard to such content.

Rights under the CCPA

If you are a California resident covered by the CCPA, you have the right to:

(1) Receive this Notice at or before the point of collection of your Personal Information.

(2) Request we disclose to you free of charge the following information covering the 12 months preceding your request:

a. the categories of Personal Information about you that we collected;

b. the categories of sources from which the Personal Information was collected;

c. the purpose for collecting Personal Information about you;

(3) Request we correct inaccurate Personal Information that we maintain about you.

(4) Request we delete Personal Information we collected from you, unless the CCPA recognizes an exception.

Please see the section below entitled, “How to Exercise Your Rights,” for instructions explaining how you can exercise these rights described above.

Requests for specific pieces of Personal Information will require additional information to verify your identity.

For individuals submitting a request on behalf of another person, we may require proof of authorization and verification of identity directly from the person for whom the request is made.

For a company or organization submitting a request on behalf of another person, we may require proof of authorization from the individual such as a Power of Attorney and verification of identity directly from the person for whom the request is made.

In some instances, we may not be able to honor your request. For example, we will not honor your request if we cannot verify your identity or if we cannot verify that you have the authority to make a request on behalf of another individual. Additionally, we will not honor your request where an exception applies, such as where the disclosure of Personal Information would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of another California resident or where the Personal Information that we maintain about you is not subject to the CCPA's access or deletion rights.

We will advise you in our response if we are not able to honor your request. We will not provide Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers or government-issued identification numbers, financial account numbers, unique biometric data, health care or medical identification numbers, account passwords or security questions and answers, or any specific pieces of information if the disclosure presents the possibility of unauthorized access that could result in identity theft or fraud or unreasonable risk to data or systems and network security.

We will work to process all verified requests within 45 days pursuant to the CCPA. If we need an extension for up to an additional 45 days in order to process your request, we will provide you with an explanation for the delay.

How We Process Opt-Out Preferences

Bank of America permits California residents to automatically exercise their right to opt-out of sale/sharing through opt-out preference signals without having to make individualized opt-out requests.
