Our Goals

We consider protecting the privacy and confidentiality of our clients our legal and moral duty. In an era of growing data security risks we have several goals:

  1. To ensure strict adherence to compliance and regulatory requirements

  2. To protect the privacy of our clients

  3. To operate in a fashion that minimizes data security risk

What Information Do We Collect?

We collect information from you when you fill out forms for insurance quotes and reviews. We are required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to record all phone calls concerning Medicare Insurance beginning Oct. 1st 2022.

What Do We Use Your Information For?

We use your information to communicate with you, provide insurance coverage options, and assist with your enrollment in, or application for insurance coverage. Understanding your needs helps us to find the right policy for you. We may use information you provide to market our insurance services.

Will My Information Be Sold?

No. We never sell, distribute, or transfer your private information to outside or third parties other than the insurance company of your choosing. Your information will be used solely by our agency to aid in policy recommendations or for the purpose of your enrollment.

How Your Data is Protected

  1. We are governed by a variety of regulatory agencies, including The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the departments of insurance for each state in which we operate, and each company we represent.

  2. We are governed by HIPAA, the same privacy and security requirements that govern doctors.

  3. We utilize HIPAA compliant data management and communication systems, including for call recording and application submission.

  4. Privacy and data security forms a part of each employee contract, and each contract we have with our insurance company partners.

  5. Failure to adhere to compliance and privacy requirements can result in our termination, loss of licensure, civil penalties, even jail time. So we take this seriously!
