We appreciate the trust you place in us when you purchase insurance from us and one of our companies. We are committed to protecting your nonpublic personal information ("personal information") and we value you as a customer.

To learn more about how we collect and use your personal information, please read the following notice.

Sources of information about you

We collect personal information about you from different sources, including:

• The information you provide when obtaining a verbal or email quote, or on applications or other forms (such as your name, address and Social Security number)

• The information we receive from a consumer reporting agency or insurance support organization (such as your credit history, driving record or claims history)
• Your insurance carrier (such as updated information pertaining to your account)

Our use of your personal information

We only disclose personal information about our customers and former customers as permitted by law. Generally, this includes disclosures to third parties to effect, administer or enforce your transactions with us, or in connection with servicing your insurance policy. These third parties may include independent insurance companies, or rating software,used by us to sell and service insurance products. We may also receive information from  independent contractors (such as automobile repair facilities and property inspectors), independent claims representatives, insurance support organizations, auditors, attorneys, courts and government agencies. We may also disclose your personal information to other financial institutions with whom we have joint marketing agreements. Before disclosing your personal information, we require these parties to enter into an agreement with us that includes a confidentiality provision.

We may also share information about our transactions (such as payment history and products purchased) and experiences (such as claims made) with you within the  family of insurance companies we use. We do  not sell your personal information to others and we do not provide your information to third parties for their own marketing purposes.

The independent insurance agents and brokers authorized to sell Safeco products and services are not Safeco employees and are not subject to Safeco`s Privacy Policy. Because they have a unique business relationship with you, they may have additional personal information about you that Safeco does not have. They may use this information differently than Safeco. Contact your Safeco agent or broker to learn more about their privacy practices.
