INFORMATION COLLECTION

We will ask you to provide your personal information to us when you enroll in our membership and when you purchase goods or services from us. We will also ask you to provide your personal information to us when you send e-mail to us from this Web site. When you enroll for membership in IIAW or request an insurance policy through AAC, we will ask you to provide your name, agency name, business address, mailing address, telephone number and e-mail address. This information will be provided to the Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers of America (IIAB) so that they may establish you as a member in their Association as well as the IIAW. This information may also be provided to our errors & omission insurance company when you purchase an insurance policy so they can establish you as a policyholder. We will maintain a record of your information at the offices of IIAW so we can provide you with policyholder service.

Each employee has been instructed on maintaining the privacy of each customer and the importance of protecting the customer's personal information.

When you enroll as a member in the IIAW or purchase an insurance policy from the AAC, you will pay membership dues, premiums, or for other services with your credit card or personal check. If you use your credit card to pay your dues, premium, or for other services, your credit card information is deleted from our records after your purchase has been authorized. A transaction number will be provided to you. You may use this transaction number as a reference to the credit card purchase. We do not keep a record of your credit card information. If you pay the premium using your personal check, we will keep a copy of your check in your file.

When you send us e-mail from this Web site, you will provide us with certain personally identifiable information including your e-mail address.

COOKIES

A cookie is a piece of data that is stored on a visitor's hard drive while they are visiting this Web site. We may utilize a short-lived form of cookie when you visit this site. At IIAW and AAC, a cookie is only used to identify one unique visitor from another visitor during a particular session. A session is the period of active site-use while that unique visitor is linked to our server. We may use cookie technology during a session as a tool to carry forward your input information during the enrollment process. This enables the visitor to input their information once and have the information appear later during the enrollment process. No personally identifiable information is stored on the cookie. The cookie expires and is deleted from the visitor's computer as soon as they close their browser or if they are not actively browsing our Web site for more than 20 minutes. Should a previous visitor to our Web site return for a new session, they will be issued a new cookie and in no way will they be recognized as a visitor from a previous visit or session.

THIRD PARTY LINKS

This Web site may contain links to third party Web sites that are not controlled by IIAW or AAC. These third party links are made available to you as a convenience and you agree to use these links at your own risk. Please be aware that IIAW and AAC is not responsible for the content of third party Web sites linked to IIAW or AAC, nor are we responsible for the privacy policy or practices of third party Web sites linked to IIAW or AAC. Our Privacy Policy only applies to information we collect from you while you are at and while you are actively in a session with IIAW or AAC. If you should link to a third party Web site from IIAW or AAC, we strongly encourage you to review and become familiar with that Web site's privacy policy.
