just notify consumers that their information will be shared, you must notify consumers of
their ability to opt-out of certain types of information sharing. C is incorrect because,

notification requirement for banks. D is incorrect because third party information may
not be shared unless the consumer has been given the opportunity to opt-out and has
not opted-out. - answer4. National Bank's marketing department plans to share third
