Passive Information Collection
In addition to the active collection methods described above, this Website
also passively collects other information from and about you using various
technologies such as IP addresses, cookies, or GIFs, as those are discussed
in this section.
Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses.
IP addresses are unique numeric identifiers assigned to your computer
each time you access the Internet. IP addresses contain no personally
identifiable information and change each time you access the Internet.
This Website uses IP addresses to track visitors as they navigate through
the Website. This tracking allows us to diagnose problem on the Website,
track usage patterns and volume, and otherwise to administer and improve
the Website.
Cookies
A “cookie” is small computer file that a website sends to
your browser that helps the site remember information about you and your
preferences. There are two kinds of cookies, “session” and
“persistent” cookies. Session cookies are temporary files
that a website erases once you exit your browser window, turn off your
computer, or otherwise disconnect from the Internet. This Website uses
session cookies to perform the same functions as IP addresses described
above.
“Persistent” cookies are more permanent files that this Website
installs on your hard drive and that will not be erased unless you manually
delete them. Persistent cookies can store information (including personally
identifiable information) on your computer for a number of purposes, such
as retrieving certain information you have previously provided (e.g.,
passwords), helping to determine what areas of the website visitors find
most valuable, and customizing the website based on your preferences.
This Website uses persistent cookies.
GIFs
GIFs, also known as "internet tags" or sometimes referred to
as "web bugs", are very small files that are present on the
pages within this Website. GIFs provide this Website with important information
about your visits, such as your IP address, browser type, and other website
usage statistics. GIFs do not provide the Website with personally identifiable
information.
Blocking Cookies
If you do not wish to allow this Web site to use cookies, you may configure
your browser to block them. Please understand that blocking cookies will
reduce the functions and services this Web site makes available to you,
and may result in your inability to receive online insurance quotations
or other services. Please refer to your browser software for instructions
on blocking cookies.
Security
With respect to our internal uses of Personal Information, we restrict
access to such Personal Information to employees who need to know that
Personal Information to provide products or services to you or otherwise
to administer our internal business operations. This Website uses reasonable
physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect Personal Information.
