Privacy

Schwab IRA Rollover Account Review

• blah blah blah boilerplate letter
• opt-out of having us share your financial information with our Affiliates!
• unless we hear from you in writing we'll assume you're totally ok with this violation of privacy!
• oooh, or you can call and give a stranger on the phone your super important identity information to maybe opt out
• ooh, or you could fax the same form!

wtf. even worse, these are California mandated requirements... other states don't require the financial institutions to offer an opt-out, and federal privacy laws for finance, they're not even as usefully useless as HIPAA.
