We reserve the right, and the Site may collect from time to time, any other lawful personal information about You, such as information that will help us match products and services that may be of interest to You.

The Site also collects and retains non-personal, technical information about Your visit(s) to the Site, including, without limitation, IP address assigned to the computer You are using, the type of browser You are using, Your location, time of visit, and the operating system Your computer or device is using.

How We Use Your Information

We use Your personal information to match Your request for insurance products and services with Our network of providers of insurance products and services.

We may also use Your personal information for any other lawful purpose, including, without limitation, sharingYour personal information with third parties who may send You ads or marketing communications about their products and offers which may be of interest to You.

By submitting Your information to Us, You are authorizing these third parties to contact You through any lawful means, including, without limitation, email, telephone (even if Your telephone number is on the do not call list), text, or online ads, regarding their products and services. If You subsequently desire that these third parties no longer contact You, You will need to communicate Your request directly to them.

We may also share Your information with third-party contractors who provide services to Us so that We can provide You with the Site and its various services. These third-party contractors are prohibited from using the information We provide for purposes other than performing services for Us. We may transfer Your information to third parties that are involved in a corporate merger or acquisition with Us.

Cookies

We may use cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies to collect information about You and Your interaction with the Site. We may also use tracking technologies for interest-based advertising, as described below. Typically, Our cookies will expire after 30 days. Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default, but You can usually change Your settings to reject cookies. For more information about interest-based ads, see the “Interest-Based Ads” section below.

Do Not Track

Most browsers have a “Do Not Track” functionality of Your web browser by visiting the Preferences or Settings page of Your web browser. Because there are currently no industry standards for Do Not Track signals and responses, the Site is not designed to respond to the “Do Not Track” setting of Your browser.

Interest-Based Advertising

We and Our third party partners may engage in marketing tactics, including what is known as “interest-based advertising”. As described above, We and Our partners may set a cookie on Your device and/or browser. Among other things, this technology allows Us and Our partners to provide You with interest-based or targeting advertising, that is, offers to products and services which will be of interest to You based on websites You’ve visited, Your visit to this Site, or other data or information which marketers may have about You. Such tactics may include tracking Your use of a web service over time and across different websites, in what is known as “retargeting”. Retargeting means that after visiting the Site or other websites, marketers may deliver ads to You on this or other websites. Marketers may track Your Internet usage across websites and combine data from other sources to personally identify You.

For more information about interest-based advertising, please visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org/. To opt out of Your web browsing information being used in this manner, please visit http://optout.aboutads.info. This opt-out process is managed and governed by industry self-regulatory bodies such as the Digital Advertising Alliance (http://digitaladvertisingalliance.org/), not by Us. Note that in the opt-out process, You may opt-out of interest-based advertising on a company-by-company basis, or You may opt out of interest-based ads from all companies who have elected to participate in the program. We do not participate directly in the program, however, Our third party partners who may be showing You ads through Our interest-based marketing efforts, such as Google, Inc., do participate. And, although some companies may provide their own, direct opt-out mechanism, this Site does not currently offer that option.

If You do elect to take advantage of this opt-out, please note that it remembers Your preference by setting a cookie on Your device or browser. Therefore, if You change computers or browsers, or delete cookies, You will have to opt-out again for each of the companies You previously opted out of. It is also important to note that opting-out of interest-based ads does not mean that You will no longer receive advertising, nor will it prevent the receipt of interest-based advertising from third parties that do not participate in these programs. It will, however, exclude You from interest-based advertising conducted through participating networks, as provided by their policies and choice mechanisms.

Revoking Your Consent

If, after submitting Your personal information to Us, You subsequently decide that You no longer want Us to retain and use Your personal information, please email Us at info@AUTOINSURANCEQUOTESUS.com and We will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete Your personal information which is no longer needed for our legal compliance purposes (for example, some laws may require that we keep records of Our transactions regarding Your Personal Information), and we will cease sharing your Personal Information with third parties. However, please note that if We have shared Your personal information with any third parties, You will have to contact them directly with Your request to delete Your information. They may or may not have policies which allow such actions; We do not have knowledge or control their practices.
