Privacy/Treatment of Information or Data Submitted to Us

Personal information submitted to us will be treated in accordance with our Online Privacy Policy.

Your Legal Rights

Certain laws require us to provide specific information to you in writing, which means you have a right to receive that information on paper. We may provide such information to you electronically if we first present these Terms to you and obtain your consent to receive it electronically. Your consent will also apply to any other person named on your policy or account, subject to applicable law. Since this website will include some of this information, you must consent to these Terms in order to use these services. At times, we may still present you with paper disclosures, but as a basic proposition we need to know that you are willing to receive disclosures and other information electronically that otherwise must be provided on paper and that you have the hardware and software needed for access to this information (and note that in Section No. 3 below, we explain ways to obtain selected disclosures or other information on paper even after you have consented to these Terms).

Types of Electronic Communications You Will Receive

You understand and agree that we may provide to you in electronic format only, by posting the information on the website where you access your account or through email (if applicable and if you have provided a valid email address) agreements, disclosures, notices, and other information and communications regarding your accounts, policies, the use of any website services, your relationship with us, and/or other services that are or may be in the future made available to you ("Communications"). Such Communications may include, but are not limited to:

  • These Terms and any updates;
  • Online Agreement, other service or user agreements for online access to this website or any other websites provided by us, all updates to these agreements and all disclosures, notices and other communications regarding online servicing transactions you make within these websites;
  • Disclosures, agreements, notices and other information related to your policy or account including, but not limited to payment notices, annual statements, or other disclosures or notices that may be required by federal or state laws and regulations affecting your policy or account.
  • Periodic, annual, monthly or other statements, disclosures and notices relating to the maintenance or operation of a policy or account or service thereon, including, but not limited to account information, account activity, account inactivity, payments made or due, or other statements, disclosures or notices that may be required by federal or state laws and regulations affecting your policy or account;
  • Any notice or disclosure regarding a policy or account product or service fee, such as a late fee, a fee for a draft, check or electronic debit returned for any reason, such as insufficient funds fee or a fee as a result of a stop payment order;
  • Any notice of the addition of new terms and conditions or the deletion or amendment of existing terms and conditions applicable to your policy or account or the services you obtain from us;
  • Our Online Privacy Policy or the Customer Information Privacy Policy of the individual companies listed at the link "Companies Serviced" and other privacy statements or notices (by posting such notices on this website);
  • Certain statements or notices that the individual companies listed at the link "Companies Serviced" are legally required to provide to you, and
  • Certain information or forms that we request from you and ask you to submit electronically, such as policy change forms and agreements.

Setting Your Electronic Communications Preferences

After you consent to these Terms, you will still be able to set your preferences to receive certain Communications in; (1) electronic format only; or (2) paper format only. Setting your Communications preferences may not be available for all policies, accounts or services. For more information on the availability of your electronic communications preference management options, please refer to the appropriate electronic communications preferences selection options on this website or the website where you access your Communications. If you decide to receive some Communications in paper and some electronically, the Communications that you receive electronically will be governed by these Terms.

Types of Communications You Will Receive in Paper

These Terms do not apply to:

  • Any notice of the cancellation or termination of life insurance benefits (excluding annuities);
  • Any transactions subject to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code;
  • Any other communications that we determine, in our sole discretion that you should receive in paper rather than electronic form.

Such notices and disclosures shall be mailed to the primary address we show for you in our records or otherwise delivered as required by law or the governing agreement.

How to Withdraw Your Consent to these Terms

Subject to applicable law, you may withdraw your consent to these Terms by emailing or calling the appropriate toll-free customer service phone numbers. For Online Servicing please access the "Contact Us" link to find the appropriate phone numbers. You will not be charged a fee for withdrawal of your consent.

For Online Servicing, if you withdraw your consent, we may stop providing you with Communications electronically and we may terminate your Online Servicing access. Your withdrawal of consent is effective only after you have communicated your withdrawal to Insurance Services by Mail at Insurance Services, PO Box 1147, Jacksonville IL 62651-1147 or by calling the appropriate customer service phone numbers and Insurance Services has had a reasonable period of time to act upon your withdrawal. Your consent shall remain in force until withdrawn in the manner provided in this section.

Remember that you can always set your Communications preferences as described in Setting Preferences above without withdrawing your consent to these Terms.

Consent to Coverage; Certain Notices From You Are Not Covered. Applicable law, policy or account language sometimes require you to give the individual companies listed at the link "Companies Serviced" "written" notices. You must still provide these notices on paper. Your consent here does not relate to those notices.

Obtaining Copies of Electronic Communications

You may print or make a copy of Communications by using the "Print" button (or otherwise using your printing functionality) or saving a copy - do this when you first review the Communications because after submission we do not necessarily keep them all in a place that you can access. Upon request, we will provide you with a paper copy of any Communications provided electronically by Insurance Services to you. You may request a paper copy of these Communications by sending us an email from our contact us page or by calling us at the appropriate toll-free customer service phone number for your policy or account or service. Please refer to the "Contact Us" link on the website to find the appropriate contact information.

Be sure to specify your account or policy identification number, as applicable, for the specific Communication for which you are requesting a paper copy, and the address to which it should be mailed. We may charge fees for paper copies of the Communications.

Retain Copies for Your Records

We recommend that you print or download a copy of these Terms, the Service Agreement and all other Communications to retain for your permanent records; if you have not already placed a copy of our Online Privacy Policy in your records, you can obtain another copy. If you are initiating the Online eDelivery enrollment process via the call center, the call center representative can provide you with paper copies.
