NOTICE OF PRIVACY POLICY

Florida Lawyers Insurance Agency, Inc. (hereinafter "Florida Lawyers") has always been committed to maintaining customer confidentiality. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act is a Federal law which deals in part with how financial institutions, including insurance companies, treat nonpublic personal financial information. Though this law does not apply in commercial transactions, we appreciate this opportunity to clarify our privacy policy for you.

As part of our insurance business, we obtain certain "nonpublic personal financial information" about you, which for ease of reading we will refer to as "customer information" in this notice. This information includes information we receive from you on applications or other forms and in the claims process. We may obtain information about individual lawyers from the lawyer, a firm administrator, or a partner in a firm.

Florida Lawyers takes your personal privacy very seriously. Because we value our relationship with you:

  • We do not sell customer information or share it with other organizations not affiliated with Florida Lawyers for their own marketing purposes.

  • We restrict access to customer information to authorized individuals who need to know this information to provide service and products to you on our behalf.

  • We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that protect customer information.

  • We do not disclose customer information about you to anyone, except as required by law or as specifically permitted by law.

  • We afford prospective and former insured lawyers the same protections as existing insureds with respect to use of customer information.

The law permits us to share customer information with our affiliates. We are an affiliate of Florida Lawyers Mutual Insurance Company and it has access to customer information about you. We also may share information about you, such as claims information, with a reinsurance company with which we have a contractual relationship.

This particular federal law does not apply to our efforts to market products or services to you - you may receive information about Florida Lawyers insurance and other insurance related products that we believe may suit your needs.

You do not need to call, or do anything as a result of this notice. It is meant to inform you of how we safeguard your nonpublic personal financial information. You may wish to file this notice with your insurance papers.

Thank you for your support of Florida Lawyers. We value our relationship with you and will strive to earn your continued trust.
