Privacy Statement

Fairbanks Insurance Brokers, Inc. (Hereafter referred to interchangeably as Fairbanks, we, us, and our) believes strongly in protecting the privacy of Internet users who visit our Website, located at https://contractorsinsurancecompany.com (the “Website”). This Privacy Statement is to inform you, the user of this Website, and the entities you represent, of how this Website collects, utilizes, and protects the personal information you choose to provide us. Generally, personal information is data used to identify you or your activities on the Website or through services offered on the Website.

This Privacy Statement applies solely to data collected via the Website. There may be additional personal (and other) information that we have or collect about you or your company pursuant to other relationships, which is subject to other agreements and rules.

What Data Do We Collect?

The information collected through the Website falls into two categories: (1) information voluntarily supplied by visitors to our Website and (2) information gathered via automated means as visitors navigate the Website.

Information Voluntarily Supplied by Visitors: Using this Website, you may provide us with personal information to help us serve your needs. For example, providing us with your name, mailing address, driver’s license number, e-mail address, or other data that identifies you to request or receive information. Any personal information provided to us is used only for the purpose indicated on the Website or in this statement.

Information Gathered via Automated Means:  We use various tools to enhance the Website user experience and track users of the Website, including cookies and web beacons. Cookies are small pieces of text that a website places on your computer to help it remember information about your visit. Web beacons are tiny graphics with unique identifiers embedded invisibly on the web pages. Neither cookies nor web beacons can read data off your computer’s hard drive or collect personal information. We use information collected from cookies and web beacons to improve the user’s experience and the overall quality of our services. We may also use cookies to identify a user’s device when that user returns to our Website and to provide services more efficiently. We may also use cookies and web beacons to collect information from third parties (such as Google) to help advertise our products and services, to analyze the effectiveness of our marketing or the performance of this Website, and to determine whether you may be interested in other products or services. We also use web beacons to help deliver cookies and compile analytics. Our cookies and web beacons may also come from third-party service providers who have permission to place such tools on our Website.

You can refuse to accept and delete cookies by adjusting your browser setting. Please note that restricting or deleting cookies may impact your browsing experience on the Website or prevent you from using some of its services which may result in the deletion of any preferences you have set. For more information on rejecting or deleting cookies, consult with your browsers or device help documentation or visit https://www.aboutcookies.org/. Fairbanks does not use technology that recognizes do-not-track signals from your browser. You can also opt out of internet-based advertising by installing a browser plugin from a third party where available. For more information about internet-based advertising, please see https://thenai.org/opt-out/.

In addition, while ensuring network security and consistent service for all users, Fairbanks employs software programs to monitor network traffic, identify unauthorized access, detect damaging computer viruses and software, and improve the performance of Fairbanks’ network and this Website. During such monitoring, these programs may detect additional information from your computers, such as your IP address, addresses from network packets, and other technical information. Any such information is used for the purpose of maintaining the security and performance of Fairbanks’ networks and computer systems.

How Do We Use the Data We Collect?

We will use the information you provide to serve your needs, which may include sending you electronic or written materials. For example, if you supply us with your telephone number, you may receive telephone contact from us in response to your request.

Do We Share Your Data?

We will not sell, exchange, or otherwise distribute your personal information without your consent, except to the extent required by law, in accordance with your instructions, or as identified in this Privacy Statement:

They may have access to personal information needed to perform their functions but are contractually restricted from using it for purposes other than providing services for Fairbanks or on our behalf.

Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy assets. In such transactions, user information generally is one of the transferred business assets. If Fairbanks or its assets are acquired, your personal information may be one of the transferred assets.

Certain states provide certain rights. California grants users specific rights in using and collecting personal information. Subject to limitations and based on your residency, you may be entitled to the following rights:

Right to Correct: You have the right to request that we correct any mistakes or update any personal information, as long as the requested corrections and updates would not violate any law or cause the information to be incorrect in our opinion.

Right to Limit the Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information: You have the right to limit the use or disclosure of personal information we collect to only that use necessary to provide the requested services.

Right to Know: You have the right to know and request information regarding the categories and specific personal information we have collected about you in the last 12 months, the purposes for collecting such information, and the categories of third parties with whom we share such information.

Right Not to be Retaliated Against: You have the right not to be retaliated against for exercising the right to opt out or any other right provided.
