The terms "you," "your," and "yours" refer to the user of the Service. The terms "SimplyInsured," "we," "us," and "our" refer to SimplyInsured. This privacy policy is incorporated into and is subject to our Terms and Conditions. By using SimplyInsured or otherwise using the Service, you agree to this Privacy Policy, including the data practices described herein.
What Information Is Collected?
SimplyInsured collects the following information from you when you use the Service:
1. User-Provided Information: You may provide to SimplyInsured what is generally called "personally identifiable" information (which is information that allows us to directly identify you, such as your name, e-mail address, postal mailing address, or home/mobile telephone number, as well as any information that we combine directly with such identifying information) when using the Service. This includes actions such as entering search queries, or, if registration functionality is provided, when you register for the Service and/or create a profile. At this time, we do not allow users to register for the Service or create a profile.
2. Cookies Information: When you use the Service, we may send one or more cookies small pieces of information containing a string of alphanumeric characters to your computer or your mobile device. We use cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the services we provide. SimplyInsured may use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser or one of our mobile apps. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser or the mobile app and may be used by your browser or the mobile app on subsequent visits to the Service. Persistent cookies generally can be removed. Please review the appropriate 'Help' file in your Web browser or your mobile device to learn the proper way to modify your cookie settings. Please note that if you delete, or choose not to accept, cookies from the Service, you may not be able to utilize the features of the Service to their fullest potential.
3. Automatically Collected Information: When you use the Service, we may automatically record certain information from your web browser and/or our mobile apps by using different types of technology, including standard log files or web beacons. This automatically collected information may include your Internet Protocol address, device model and/or type, device address or ID, location, web browser, the web pages or sites that you visit just before or just after the Service, the pages you view on the Service, the searches you run on the Service, the dates and times that you visit the Service, and other information regarding how you use the Service.
4. Links to Third Party Services: We may also include links to third party services on the Service, such as links to websites where you may book travel. Those third parties may read and write cookies to your browser, or implement similar tracking mechanisms, in connection with your viewing of their content. This information is collected directly by the third party, and SimplyInsured does not participate in that data transmission, nor is SimplyInsured responsible for the privacy practices or content of such third party services. Information collected by third parties in this manner is subject to that third party's own data collection, use, and disclosure policies.
5. Information from Other Sources: We may also obtain information, including personally identifiable information, from third parties and sources other than the Service, such as the third party service providers to which we link or who link to us or our advertising partners. If we combine or associate information from other sources with personally identifiable information that we collect through the Service, we will treat the combined information as personally identifiable information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
