Additional Information for California Residents <p>This section is provided for purposes related to the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (collectively, the “CPRA”) and applies solely to the personal information and Fidelity companies that are subject to the CPRA. As used in this section, “personal information” means information that meets the definition of “personal information” as set forth in the CPRA and is not otherwise excluded from the scope of the CPRA.</p> <p> <strong>Fidelity companies and the CPRA</strong> </p> <p>Depending on the Fidelity company with which you have a relationship or otherwise interact, the nature of your relationship and interactions with that Fidelity company, and the products and services provided to you through that relationship, some or all of the personal information that the Fidelity company collects or maintains is covered by one or more of the exemptions described below (see the section below entitled “CPRA Exemptions”). As a result, in some cases, the applicable Fidelity company may have no obligation under the CPRA to accept any CPRA requests, and in other cases, it may have no obligation to honor a particular CPRA request, because of the nature of the personal information that the Fidelity company collects or maintains. Here are some examples of CPRA exemptions:</p> <ul> <li>If your relationship and interactions with a Fidelity company consist solely of personal financial services (e.g., maintaining one or more personal brokerage accounts), the personal information collected and processed about you is subject to the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLBA”) and therefore your CPRA request will not be honored by the Fidelity company.</li> <li>If you participate in a workplace retirement plan, or other employee benefit plan sponsored by or provided through your employer, that is serviced or administered by a Fidelity company, <strong>CPRA requests should be directed to your employer</strong>.</li> </ul> <p> <strong>Your Rights Under the CPRA</strong> </p> <p>The CPRA gives certain rights to California residents and imposes certain obligations on those businesses that are subject to the CPRA. As required by the CPRA, set forth below is a description of certain rights that California residents generally have under the CPRA. As used below, a “consumer” means a resident of the State of California and a “covered business” means a business that is subject to the CPRA.</p> <ul> <li>Right to Know/Right to Access. A consumer has the right to request that a covered business that collects a consumer’s personal information disclose to that consumer the categories and specific pieces of information the business has collected.

Please also note that a covered business is not required to honor more than 2 of these requests from the same consumer during any 12-month period.</p> </li> </ul> <ul> <li>Right to Delete. A consumer has the right to request that a covered business delete any personal information that the business has collected from the consumer, subject to certain exceptions.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Right to Correct. A consumer has the right to request that a covered business correct inaccuratepersonal information that a business maintains about a consumer.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Right to Opt-Out of Sale/Sharing.

If a covered business uses or discloses sensitive personal information for reasons other than those set forth in the CPRA, a consumer has the right to limit the use or disclosure of sensitive personal information by the business.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Non-Discrimination. A consumer has the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by the covered business for the exercise of privacy rights conferred by the CPRA.</li> </ul> <p> <strong>Categories of personal information we may collect about you</strong> </p> <p>In general, if you are a customer of ours or you otherwise interact with us, we collect various types of personal information about you.

Our retention period for the data elements within each category is set based on the following criteria: (1) the length of time that the data is needed for the purposes for which it was created or collected, (2) the length of time the data is needed for other operational or record retention purposes, (3) the length of time the data is needed in connection with our legal, compliance and regulatory requirements, for legal defense purposes and to comply with legal holds, (4) how the data is stored, (5) whether the data is needed for security purposes and fraud prevention, and (6) whether the data is needed to ensure the continuity of our products and services.</p> <p> <strong>Categories of sources from which personal information is collected</strong> </p> <p>In addition to the sources described in the section above entitled “<strong>How and why we obtain and use personal information</strong>”, depending on the nature of your relationship and your interactions with us, and on the products and services that we provide to you, we may obtain personal information from the following sources:</p> <ul> <li>You or your representative, such as when using our products, services or digital offerings, when interacting with us or any of our service providers regarding our products, services or digital offerings or when otherwise communicating with us</li> <li>Providers of publicly available information</li> <li>Another person or other persons (typically people who know you) who provide referral information about you to us or who use the capabilities we offer on certain of our websites and applications to forward an article or other information to you</li> <li>Third parties that provide products and services to you through your relationship with us</li> <li>Third parties that perform services for us or on our behalf</li> <li>Other third-party sources, including government sources, data brokers and social networks</li> <li>Automatically, via technologies such as cookies and web beacons, when you interact with our digital offerings or electronic communications</li> </ul> <p> <strong>Why we collect personal information</strong> </p> <p>Please see the section above entitled “<strong>How and why we obtain and use personal information</strong>” for a description of some of the business or commercial purposes for which we collect personal information, including sensitive personal information. In addition to those purposes described above, below are additional business or commercial purposes for which we collect personal information:</p> <ul> <li>To provide you with information about products and services that may interest you</li> <li>To maintain the accuracy and integrity of our records</li> <li>For marketing and communication purposes</li> <li>For reporting and analytical purposes</li> <li>For personalizing your interactions and experiences with us</li> <li>For training and quality-control measures</li> <li>To verify your identity</li> <li>To protect against malicious, fraudulent, or illegal activity</li> <li>For business analysis, planning, and reporting</li> <li>For customer education</li> <li>For effectiveness measurements</li> </ul> <p> <strong>Categories of personal information disclosed for business purposes</strong> </p> <p>Like most businesses, we disclose personal information, including in some cases certain sensitive personal information, to third parties for our business purposes. Depending on the nature of your relationship and your interactions with us, and on the products and services that we provide to you, we disclose to third parties for business purposes the personal information that is encompassed by one or more of the categories described in the “Categories of personal information we may collect about you” section above, with the categories of third parties listed in the section above entitled “<strong>How we share information about you with third parties”</strong>.</p> <p> <strong>Other information about our handling of personal information</strong> </p> <p>Please note that we do not “sell” or “share” (as defined in the CPRA) personal information about you to any third party and have not done so at any time during the 12-month period preceding the date this privacy policy was last updated. In addition, we do not sell or share personal information of minors under 16 years of age.</p> <p>Because we do not sell or share personal information, Fidelity companies do not have any obligation under the CPRA to accept CPRA requests requesting that the Fidelity companies not sell or share a consumer’s personal information.</p> <p> <strong>CPRA Exemptions</strong> </p> <p>Please note that certain types of personal information collected or maintained by a covered business are exempt from the CPRA. For example, a covered business has limited obligations, or in some cases, no obligations, under the CPRA with regard to the following types of personal information:</p> <ul> <li>Personal information collected, processed, sold, or disclosed pursuant to the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (Public Law 106-102) and implementing regulations, or pursuant to the California Financial Information Privacy Act (Division 1.4 [commencing with Section 4050] of the California Financial Code)</li> <li>Medical information governed by the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act or protected health information that is collected by a covered entity or business associate pursuant to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996.</li> </ul> <p>In addition, some businesses are not subject to the CPRA, such as:</p> <ul> <li>A business that does not do business in the State of California</li> <li>A business that is not organized or operated for the profit of financial benefit of its shareholders or other owners</li> <li>A business that does not determine the purposes and means of the processing of consumers’ personal information</li> <li>A business that has annual gross revenue of $25,000,000 or less</li> </ul> <p>Furthermore, under the CPRA, there are a number of situations where a covered business under the CPRA may refuse to honor a CPRA request to delete a consumer’s personal information and is allowed to continue to maintain the personal information. Some examples include situations where retention of the personal information is reasonably necessary to:</p> <ul> <li>Complete the transaction for which the personal information was collected, provide a good or service requested by the consumer or reasonably anticipated within the context of the covered business’s ongoing business relationship with the consumer, or otherwise perform a contract between the Fidelity company and the consumer</li> <li>Help to ensure security and integrity to the extent the use of the personal information is reasonably necessary and proportionate for those purposes</li> <li>Debugging to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality</li> <li>Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise that consumer’s right of free speech, or exercise another right provided by law</li> <li>To enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on the consumer's relationship with the business and compatible with the context in which the consumer provided the information</li> <li>Comply with a legal obligation</li> </ul> <p>Please note that the description of the CPRA set forth in this privacy policy is a summary of only certain aspects of the CPRA and is not and should not be considered a complete description of the CPRA. In addition to what is described above, the CPRA includes other exemptions that apply to particular types of personal information and particular businesses, as well as additional situations where a covered business is not required to honor a consumer’s request to delete the consumer’s personal information.</p> <p> <strong>Submitting a CPRA Request</strong> </p> <p> <strong>If you wish to submit a CPRA request to any of the Fidelity companies listed in this privacy policy, you may initiate your request through one of the options provided on our</strong> California Privacy Rights Request Page.
