How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals <p>Some internet browsers have incorporated "Do Not Track" features. Most of these features, when turned on, send a signal or preference (the "DNT Signal") to the web sites you visit indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret DNT Signals, nor a common definition of "tracking", we do not currently respond to DNT Signals on the Schwab Websites. Schwab engages in so-called online behavioral advertising on third-party sites (also sometimes called "retargeting" or "tracking"), through which information collected about the pages you visit on findyourindependentadvisor.com is used to display ads to support or promote registered investment advisories on third-party websites. This information may uniquely identify a browser but is not personally identifiable.</p> Online Behavioral Advertising <p>Schwab may use third-party online advertising companies to provide you with advertisements about registered investment advisories that may be relevant to your interests, as determined by your activity on findyourindependentadvisor.com This type of ad customization is known as "online behavioral" or "interest-based" advertising. These advertising companies may use cookies to understand your interests based on, for example, pages visited and browsing patterns on Schwab's websites.</p> Opting Out of Online Behavioral Advertising <p>You may opt-out of receiving online behavioral advertisements from third-party advertising companies that Schwab uses to serve these interest-based ads.
