Geography

Our Services are intended for use by residents of the United States. They are not intended to subject us to the laws or jurisdictions of any state, country or territory other than those of the United States.

How We Collect Information

Depending on your relationship with us, there are three primary ways we may collect information about you: (1) when you provide it to us, (2) through automated technologies, and (3) by asking others to provide it. We need to collect personal information to provide Services to you. If you do not provide the information requested, we may not be able to provide the Services.

We’ve broken down each of those three categories in further detail.

1. Information You May Provide to Us

You may provide information to us in various ways, such as through online forms, over the phone, or other means offered through our Service. For example, on our Website we may ask you some basic questions in order to generate an insurance quote for you. The types of information you provide us fit into two categories.

Personal Information is information that identifies you personally, such as your name, postal address, email address, telephone number, or other contact information.

Non-Personal Information is information about you or your household that, on its own, doesn’t identify you personally, like gender, income, employment status, or products of interest. This also includes information that has been aggregated in a manner such that it no longer reveals your identity

When we combine Non-Personal Information with Personal Information, we treat it like Personal Information for as long as it is combined.

Unless specifically requested, we ask that you do not send us, and you do not disclose, any additional personal information (e.g., information related to government identifiers, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion or other beliefs, health, biometrics or genetic characteristics, or criminal background) during the use of our Services.

If you disclose, to us or to our service providers, any personal information relating to other people in connection with the Services, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We May Automatically Collect

We may automatically collect certain information from your device or computer regarding how you access and interact with our Services. We call this Usage Information for purposes of this Privacy Policy. Usage Information is a critical part of how we improve your experience on our Websites and, more importantly, provide you with more personalized insights and recommendations, which is the core of what we aim to do.

In some instances, we may combine Usage Information with Personal Information. If we do, we will treat the combined information as personal information as long as it is combined.

There are four types of Usage Information we may collect:

1. Device Information. We collect information about your device, such as your operating system, hardware model, application or browser type and version, browser configuration, IP Address, and unique identifiers associated with your device.

2. Activity Information. We automatically collect certain information in system logs or similar files about your use of our Services, how you interact with our Services and advertisements, and information about data or files that have been uploaded to our Services. This Information may include things like buttons you click and mouse movements, date and time of access, pages visited, web beacons, and cookie or pixel tag information. 

3. Information Used to Reidentify. We collect information to try to reidentify you across multiple browsing sessions and devices (for instance, connecting your current browsing session with a prior session).

4. Location Information. We may use certain information to estimate your location such as IP Address. We may also request location-enabled services on your device (which typically provide GPS or Wi-Fi access point details).

Note that you may choose to set your web browser to refuse, limit, or to alert you of certain information practices regarding Usage Information. On your mobile device, you may also adjust your privacy and advertising settings to control whether you want to receive more relevant advertising. If you do make such changes, please note that some parts of our Services, designed to combine digital guidance and human touch, may not function properly, and we may not be able to offer you a personalized experience.
