Privacy Policy
Insurance Works, believes that online privacy is crucial for the ongoing success of the Internet as a service, commercial and entertainment medium. We collect personal information from you primarily to make using the Insurance Works Web site easier and more satisfying. In registering for certain services offered by Insurance Works you may be asked to provide your name, e-mail address or other information. Unless you designate otherwise, the personally identifiable information you provide will be known only to you and to Insurance Works. We will always ask you before providing this information to anyone else. If others want this information, including your name or your email address, we will provide it only if you give us permission to do so.
Information gathered online can generally be categorized as either anonymous or personally identifiable. Anonymous information is information that cannot be traced back to a specific individual. For example, Insurance Works knows how many visitors arrive at its Web site each day, but does not know the names, e-mail addresses or gender of the people using the Web site.
Personally identifiable information is information you provide that lets us know specific facts about you so that we can customize the information Insurance Works delivers to you accordingly. This information can include your name, e-mail address, etc. It is our belief that you will find it beneficial to provide us with personal information so that your experience with Insurance Works is more satisfying.
Each time a visitor comes to the Insurance Works Web site, we collect some information to improve the overall quality of the online experience, including product monitoring and product improvement. At the Insurance Works Web site, we collect the visitor's domain name (e.g. whether the user is logged on from you.com or me.com), referral data (e.g., we record the address of the last URL a user visited prior to clicking through to the Insurance Works Web site), and browser and platform type (e.g., a Netscape browser on a Macintosh platform).
In addition to collecting these types of information, we also count, track, and aggregate the visitor's activity into our analysis of general traffic flows at our sites (e.g. tracking where traffic comes from, how traffic flows within the Ask Jeeves properties, etc.). To these ends, we may merge information about you into group data, which may then be shared on an aggregated basis with our clients and or advertisers; but Insurance Works will not disclose your individual identity or personal data without your permission. When Insurance Works does present aggregated information to outside companies, no one will be able to identify or contact you.
