Additional disclosures for California residents regarding personal information and privacy choices.
This notice supplements our Privacy Policy for California residents and describes categories of personal information we may collect, why we use it, when it may be disclosed or shared, and the rights available under applicable California privacy law.
Depending on how you interact with our website, we may collect identifiers and contact details such as your name, telephone number, email address and ZIP code; demographic or eligibility-related information such as age range or state; commercial information related to your insurance inquiry; internet or electronic network activity such as browser, device, IP address and website usage data; approximate geolocation derived from technical information; and inferences reasonably drawn from information you provide or from your interactions with the site.
We may collect this information directly from you, automatically through website technologies, from service providers, or from marketing and business partners where permitted by law.
We may use personal information to respond to an insurance information request, connect consumers with licensed insurance professionals or insurance-related marketing partners, operate and improve the website, maintain security, prevent misuse or fraud, comply with legal obligations, analyze website performance, and communicate about insurance products or services when permitted.
During the preceding 12 months, we may have disclosed categories of personal information described above to service providers, technology vendors, analytics providers, licensed insurance agencies or professionals, insurance-related marketing partners, and other parties that assist us in fulfilling a consumer request or operating the website.
California law may treat some transfers of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or other valuable consideration as a “sale” or “sharing,” even when no money is exchanged. To the extent our activities fall within those definitions, California residents may have the right to opt out. We do not knowingly sell or share personal information of consumers we know are under 16 years of age.
Subject to legal exceptions and verification requirements, California residents may have the right to request information about the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected about them; request deletion of certain personal information; request correction of inaccurate information; request information about categories of information disclosed, sold or shared; opt out of sale or sharing where applicable; and exercise these rights without unlawful discrimination.
You may submit a request through our Opt Out page or contact us through the Contact page. You may also email privacy@gethospitalindemnity.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests. Where permitted, an authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf, subject to verification of the agent's authority.
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in our Privacy Policy, to satisfy legal or compliance obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and maintain appropriate business records.
