Setnor Byer Insurance and Risk collects information from our users at several different points on our website.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. For session cookies, once the user closes his/her browser, the cookie simply terminates. A persistent cookie is a small text file stored on the user’s hard drive for an extended period of time.
For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the user would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If a user rejects the cookie, he/she may still use our site. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Disclosure When Required By Law
We may disclose personally identifiable information when required by law.
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Web site.
Newsletter
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information, such as name and e-mail address.
The personal information provided by the user is being used solely by Setnor Byer Insurance and Risk and is protected under the Privacy Policy that you are currently reading.
Security
We take every precaution to protect our users’ information.
When you submit sensitive information via the Website (such as credit card number), your information is protected with Secure Socket Layer (SSL), the industry-standard encryption software.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information offline. Our site and all customer data reside on our secure in-house server, behind our firewall. We use VeriSign as our Certification Authority (CA). Our customer database is backed up regularly, and access to personal account information is limited to only those employees who need the information to perform a specific job. Employees must use password-protected screen-savers when leaving their work area, which further protects customer information from unauthorized access.
All employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. During orientation, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our clients’ information remains secure and protected at all times. If you have any questions about the security at our Website, please Contact Us.
