Questions and Answers about WestMarInsurance.com’s Privacy Policy

How does WestMarInsurance.com use my personally identifiable information?
We use your personally identifiable information to create your insurance profile. From this profile, we generate instant online quotes (as available) using the rating methods of our participating insurance companies. If you meet their criteria, participating insurance companies who don’t yet offer online quotes may provide an offline quote.

Unless you give us permission to do so, or unless required by law, we do not willfully use or disclose personally identifiable information. However, we may share aggregated statistical information from our database with our participating insurance companies or business partners (for example, the percentage of our users that are male). Even then, your personally identifiable information is not disclosed.

How do WestMarInsurance.com’s participating insurance companies use my information?
We do not control the privacy practices of the participating insurance companies; however, all the companies use the information you provide for one general purpose: to provide you with an accurate insurance quote. Companies use your personally identifiable information in combination with other information you provide about your insurance needs. However, rating criteria may be different for each participating insurance company and each company may place different emphasis on particular aspects of your information. Where permitted by law, your personally identifiable information may also be used to request a credit report or your claims history from a third party, or to verify other information you have provided.

Do you send my information to an insurance company? Do I have control over this?
Yes, you always have total control over whether WestMarInsurance.com sends your personally identifiable information to insurance companies, and to which companies this information is sent. To request coverage from a company that has offered an online quote, or to request an offline quote, you can choose to send your name, contact information, and the detailed information you provided on the quote request form to one or more insurance companies. In any case, this information is only sent at your direction.

Why do some of WestMarInsurance.com’s quote request forms require so much information?
We work with many insurance companies. Since these companies use different criteria to rate prospective customers, the form must encompass a wide range of questions. Asking lots of questions ensures that you receive the largest number of quotes possible. If you decline to provide some requested information, we may be unable to provide quotes from some companies.

How can I change my information?
At any point while shopping for quotes, you can use the tabs found across the top of the page to return to previous pages. To change the information displayed, type the new data in the form and click the Continue or Submit button found on the page. When you save your information to an WestMarInsurance.com Account you can return any time you like to change the information. Simply log in on the site and you will have access to the personal information you entered. To change the information displayed, type the new data in the form and click the Continue or Submit button found on the page.

How do I access my information? Select the Returning to WestMarInsurance.com option on the first page of the quote request form or log in from our home page. After you enter your user name and password, you can view the form containing the information you entered earlier.

After I request quotes at WestMarInsurance.com, who will contact me? Representatives of the companies you choose will contact you with information regarding your quotes or coverage. You will only be contacted by these representatives if you specifically authorize it.

In addition, we e-mail a quote confirmation and occasionally e-mail a quality control survey to all customers who request quotes or coverage. These surveys are optional.

Does WestMarInsurance.com sell my information to other companies?
No, we never resell, trade, lease or rent our users’ personally identifiable information to other companies.

Does WestMarInsurance.com store my information? Yes. All information submitted through our quote request forms is stored on our computer servers. We do not use your personally identifiable information except to process your request to provide quotes, or with your permission:

• to forward it to an insurance company when you request coverage,
• to save it to your WestMarInsurance.com Account,

Does WestMarInsurance.com allow me to correct the information? Yes. You can change the information you provide to us at any time. Your right to review and correct information provided by third parties, such as credit reports, is subject to a variety of federal and state laws.

How is my privacy protected in the WestMarInsurance.com Rewards Program?
The WestMarInsurance.com Rewards Program is a partnership between WestMarInsurance.com and the WestMarInsurance.com Rewards Program sponsors who work together to bring you promotions and discounts. The promotions and discounts are called Rewards. When you are on the WestMarInsurance.com Rewards Program area of our site and are asked for personal information, you are sharing that information with WestMarInsurance.com alone.

What information is sent to an WestMarInsurance.com Rewards sponsor?
Each time you choose a Reward (follow the link to the Rewards sponsor’s Web site) a random number we assign you may also be sent for tracking purposes. This allows WestMarInsurance.com to track accepted Rewards and ensures that we continue to offer the promotions and discounts you want. Generally, we use random numbers to estimate our audience size and assist our Rewards sponsors. Specifically, when you enter the WestMarInsurance.com Rewards Program, this number is used to gauge repeat usage and help us to personalize your experience on the WestMarInsurance.com Rewards Program pages. Also, it lets Rewards sponsors track visits to and business at their sites. The information tracked may also include which pages you have seen at each Rewards sponsor’s site and what offers you chose to accept on a Rewards sponsor’s site.

What do sites that have links from WestMarInsurance.com do with my information?
Please be aware that Rewards sponsors or Web sites that have links on our site may collect personal information about you. The information practices of Web sites linked to the WestMarInsurance.com site are not covered by this privacy statement.

How does WestMarInsurance.com protect my information as it passes over the Internet?
The WestMarInsurance.com Rewards Program uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. With SSL, when you enter a request for quotes or provide personal information, your information is encrypted as it travels between your computer and our computer servers. To support this technology, you need an SSL-capable browser. We recommend using a strong encryption, 128-bit browser. Netscape Navigator 4.06 or higher and Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 4.01 or higher are 128-bit browsers. You can tell when you are visiting a secure area in our site by looking at the symbol on the bottom of your browser screen. If you are using Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer, you will see either a lock or a key. When the symbol appears unbroken or the padlock is in the locked position, your session connection is taking place via a secure server.

When you agree to send information, we transmit your information to the company you select. We offer encryption to each of our participating insurance companies and Rewards sponsors. We require encryption when transmitting information such as Social Security numbers or credit card information.

Does WestMarInsurance.com use “cookies”?
Yes. Cookies are small text files saved on your computer’s hard drive and stored in memory while your browser is running. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can change your browser settings to prevent that.

Each time you visit the site, we may detect the type of operating system, internet browser and e-mail client you use (program for accessing e-mails). This allows us to notify you of potential problems with our applications and certain operating system-internet browser combinations. Determining the e-mail client in use lets us send communications that are compatible with your system.

Does WestMarInsurance.com collect information from children under the age of 13?
WestMarInsurance.com does not knowingly solicit data from children, and we do not knowingly market to children.

WestMarInsurance.com.com may make significant changes to its privacy policy affecting the use of the personal information collected. We will notify you by e-mail of any relevant changes.
