Our Commitment to Your Privacy
|
SelectQuote is committed to the security and privacy of all of your
personal information. This privacy statement explains the protection,
uses, and benefits of the information you provide in order to assure
your peace of mind through every step of the process.
What information is gathered and how is it used?
The questions we ask on our site are used only to
determine which insurance carriers and products best match your
unique needs. Each insurance company bases its final prices on its
own criteria, so to help match you most accurately with the best
company, product, and policy for your needs, we gather some general health,
lifestyle, family history and contact information on our site. A
licensed representative will then review your submission and, if
necessary, either call or email you to clarify any outstanding issues
and provide you with the information you request.
Additionally, information gathered on our "Customer Service Express" page is used only to determine your preferred method of contact (phone or email) and locate your records (state of residence, date of birth).
From time to time we may contact you with information concerning various insurance products that we believe might be of interest to you.
Of course, you should only feel comfortable providing this information
to a trusted name with a verified commitment to your privacy and
security. As America's oldest and largest independent term life
sales agency, SelectQuote has helped hundreds of thousands of people
get the coverage they need - quickly and privately.
Should you have any questions whatsoever regarding the personal
information submitted to SelectQuote, please call us at 1-800-289-5807
or email us at customercare@selectquote.com.
What security devices are in place on SelectQuote.com to protect my personal information?
All information submitted through SelectQuote.com
is encrypted using SSL (Secured Sockets Layer) protocol. This encodes
and protects your information as it travels across the Internet.
All personal information you supply is encrypted using a digital
certificate supplied by VeriSign, a leading provider of internet
security technology.
Does SelectQuote sell my personal information to other companies?
No.
When does SelectQuote provide my personal information to insurance companies?
Only when you explicitly authorize us to begin the
application process for the policy and carrier you choose. Even
then, you will receive the formal paperwork to review (and correct,
if necessary) and sign before any information will be released to
the carrier of your choice.
How will the insurance companies use my information once I authorize its release?
Any personal information gathered by SelectQuote
is used only for the process of qualifying you for insurance
products. Where permitted by law, your information may be used to
request credit, medical and/or driving records from a third party.
This information is used for underwriting the application in
accordance with the disclosures and releases that you must review
and sign. These authorizations are included with your application.

You can access all your personally identifiable
