You need to wait for the element to appear in DOM using Selenium's Explicit Wait feature.

Open the page using WebDriver.get() function

driver.get("https://agent.loadbook.in/#/login")

Click "Create an account" link:

driver.find_element_by_link_text("Create an account").click()

Wait until the checkbox loads and becomes clickable:

WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CLASS_NAME, "switch_div")))

Click the checkbox:

 driver.find_element_by_class_name("switch_div").click()

To click() on the checkbox asociated with text as I agree to the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy you have to induce WebDriverWait for the element to be clickable and you can use the following solution:

Code Block:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() 
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
# options.add_argument('disable-infobars')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options, executable_path=r'C:\WebDrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get("https://agent.loadbook.in/#/login")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.LINK_TEXT, "Create an account"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "label[for='switch-shadow']"))).click()
