The Insurance Tracking Department ("TITD") has developed this privacy
policy ("Privacy Policy") to help you understand how this Website
collects, uses, and discloses personally identifiable information gathered
from and about you during your visit ("Personal Information"). The privacy
of your personal information is important to TITD. Title V of the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLBA") is a United States law that generally
prohibits any financial institution, directly or through its affiliates,
from sharing nonpublic personal information about consumers or customers
with a nonaffiliated third party unless the institution provides the
appropriate consumer or customer with a notice of its privacy policies and
practices, such as the type of information that it collects from consumers
and customers and the categories of persons or entities to whom the
information may be disclosed. In compliance with the GLBA and state law
relating to privacy in the industry, and in order to notify our clients of
our privacy practices, we are providing you with this document to inform
you of our privacy policies and practices.
By using any portion of this Website you acknowledge that you have read
and understand this Privacy Policy and that you consent to the Personal
Information collection, use, and disclosure practices explained below. You
further consent that you have read, understand and agree to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Website's Internet Service Agreement.
This Website collects Personal Information through:
- Information we receive on applications or other forms when providing
insurance services;
- Information we receive while processing and verifying the information
provided to us;
- Information we receive from affiliates, insurers, other intermediaries,
and others;
- Information we receive from consumer reporting agencies;
- Information available from external sources (i.e. publicly available
records).
TITD may use the Personal Information referenced above to complete
requested transactions, provide requested products and services, inform
you about additional TITD products and services that may be of interest to
you, and perform related functions. TITD may also disclose such Personal
Information to affiliates and nonaffiliated third parties as described
below.
TITD does not disclose any nonpublic personal information to any third
parties, except as stated in this policy and as otherwise permitted by law.
TITD may disclose Personal Information to affiliated and nonaffiliated
third parties: (1) as necessary to process or service requested or
authorized transactions, such as to secure quotations for insurance,
obtain insurance coverage, or report or process claims, and/or (2) that
perform services on our behalf or to other institutions, including
insurance companies or banks with whom TITD has joint marketing
arrangements. In addition, TITD may disclose Personal Information as
otherwise permitted or required by law, including in connection with any
sale of all or a part of our business or company, or pursuant to a
subpoena or other request by government officials. The GLBA and this
notice do not affect any rights an individual Client may have under the
Fair Credit Reporting Act. TITD may also share Personal Information in
other circumstances as described below.
We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about Clients to
those employees of our affiliates and ours who need to know that
information in order to provide products or services to our Clients. We
have physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in place to guard all
nonpublic personal information we maintain regarding Clients.
TITD treats Personal Information about former customers in accordance with
the policies described in this Privacy Policy regarding current customers.
