Kane Insurance Brokerage Services, LLC recognizes the sensitive nature of much of
the information with which we are entrusted on a daily basis, and we are committed to
the highest standards of privacy. The nature of our business requires that we gather
information that is of a personal nature, whether it be financial, medical or other
information that you wish to keep protected. The following outline is intended to
familiarize you with our policies for the gathering, use, maintenance and protection of
private information as required by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. The examples given are
intended to be for illustrative purposes only, and therefore, should not be considered a
complete representation of our practices.
INFORMATION COLLECTED:
As you are probably aware, in the course of our relationship with you, we may collect
information from a variety of sources. We collect this information in order to carry out our
business functions and provide the highest quality of service to you. Most of our
information comes directly from you. This information may be provided to us in an
application for insurance, or as part of the supporting documentation submitted or
obtained in the insurance underwriting or claim handling process. Information comes to
us from third parties, including agents, employers, other insurance brokers or
insurance companies, health care professionals, and consumer reporting agencies or
other public sources. We may obtain information about your business or occupation,
property, health, credit history and income, as well as personal identification information
such as names, birth dates, addresses, social security and drivers license numbers,
telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses. In addition, we gather information about the
business you conduct with us. This may include information such as insurance
policies, premiums, policy numbers, and claims history.
DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION:
In the course of our normal business activities, we may disclose collected information
to both affiliates and non-affiliated entities, as we deem necessary. We will not disclose
your information for any purposes other than those in conjunction with the business
activities requested of us unless otherwise permitted or required by law. The business
activities include the marketing, quoting and servicing of your insurance needs and
performing other essential functions of our business. Affiliated entities are within the
Kane Insurance Brokerage Services family of companies, while non-affiliated entities
are those outside of the Kane Insurance Brokerage Services family of cocompanies
with which we conduct our activities, including insurance companies, wholesalers,
claims administrators, other brokers and agents, actuaries and other financial services
or marketing firms. We endeavor to choose non-affiliates with similar standards to ours
regarding the protection of private information. We never sell any private information to
other companies for any reason.
PROTECTION OF INFORMATION:
Kane Insurance Brokerage Services understands the importance of confidentiality and
are required to adhere to our privacy policies and procedures. Those who violate these
policies and procedures are subject to disciplinary action. Our practices protect against
the disclosure of information for purposes unrelated to the performance of our business
functions or to individuals other than those who must use it in the course of their work
activities. These practices include the use of password protection of computer files,
e-mail and voice-mail and other physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards.
