At TD Ameritrade, we are committed to delivering our clients one of the highest levels of security in the industry — at no cost to you. That means we will reimburse you any cash or shares of securities from your account that are lost as a result of unauthorized activity. We are promising you this protection, which adds to the provisions that already govern your account, in case unauthorized activity ever occurs and we determine it was through no fault of your own.

How does the TD Ameritrade Guarantee work?

We can guarantee this protection if you work with us in three ways:

Keep your account information secure and confidential — do not share it, because sharing your UserID, password, PIN, or account
number with other people means you authorize them to take action in your account. Check your account frequently and report any suspicious or unauthorized activity to us immediately. Take the steps we request if your account is ever compromised and cooperate with our investigation.

If you help us in these basic ways, we will promise no fine print and no footnotes — just our commitment to protect the assets you entrust to us.

Note: The Asset Protection Guarantee does not apply to situations involving your advisor’s unauthorized activity, since your advisor is authorized on your account. It does, however, protect against any unauthorized activity by an unaffiliated third party.
