What We Collect and How We Use It

A. Information You Provide to Us 

While using our services, we may ask you to share certain personal information that can be used to contact or identify you. The personal information we may ask for includes your email address, name, phone number, and zip code. We may also collect any other information you choose to share, including information you share in your communications with us.

The way we use this personal information depends on the context in which we collect it. Your information is primarily used for receiving insurance quotes from insurance carriers and to obtain quotes and submit and process insurance applications. We may also use your information to improve your overall experience on the website, for administrative operations, to communicate with you, manage your account, provide news, offers, and promotions, and for other purposes such as marketing, underwriting, and product development, that we may explain when we collect your personal information.

B. Information We Collect Automatically 

We also may collect information about your activities on our websites and connected devices, such as your device's Internet Protocol address (e.g. IP address), browser type, browser version, the pages of our service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers, and other diagnostic data.

We may collect this information over time and across third-party websites, devices, apps and other online features and services. We use cookies and data collection technologies to collect this information so that we can compile reports on activity, collect demographic data, analyze performance metrics, and collect and evaluate other information relating to the usage of the website. We also use this information to improve our website and services, personalize your experiences, and for marketing, underwriting, and product development.

How We Share your Information

We may share your personal information in the following circumstances:

A. With Service Providers 

We may share your personal information with service providers who we have hired to help us manage our business. For example, service providers may provide hosting and maintenance, data storage and management, and marketing and promotions services. Our policy is to permit our service providers to only use your personal information to provide services to us.

B. Our Insurance Partners 

We may share your personal information with our insurance partners so that they can provide you insurance quotes. When we share your information with our insurance partners, they may use your personal information in accordance with their own privacy policies, including to market to you. 

C. In a Transaction

If FurSure is merged, acquired, or sold, or in the event of a transfer or restructuring of some or all of our assets, we may disclose or transfer personal information in connection with such transaction. 

D. In Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement Requests

We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We may disclose personal information to government or law enforcement officials or private parties if, in our discretion, we believe it is necessary or appropriate in order to respond to legal requests (including court orders and subpoenas), to protect the safety, property, or rights of FurSure or of any third party, to prevent or stop any illegal, unethical, or legally actionable activity, or to comply with the law. 

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website uses cookies. A “cookie” is a small text file that is placed on your computer or mobile device that enables us to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time. While the cookies we use on the website may change from time-to-time, they generally fall into the following categories:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies. These cookies are strictly necessary to enable your use of the Online Services and to load and show content.

These cookies (like Google Analytics) help us compile statistics and analytics about use of and interaction with the website, including details about how often a user visits the website, which areas of the website are visited and for how long, and other similar traffic, usage, and trend data.
  • Advertising Cookies. We partner with advertisers and ad networks to display advertising on the websites and on third party websites. Some of these advertisements may be tailored to your interests or behaviors (“Interest-based Ads”). For example, if you viewed content on the website about sports, you may see advertisements related to sports. To learn more about these advertising practices or to opt out of Interest-based Ads, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance.

Managing your Privacy Preferences

 Here are some tips about how to manage your privacy preferences with respect to how we use your personal information:

 A. Correct your Personal Information

If we maintain personal information about you that is incorrect, you can email us at privacy@getfursure.com to request that we correct your information. 

 B. Opt Out of Marketing

You may opt out of receiving marketing and promotional emails from us by following the “unsubscribe” link included in each marketing or promotional email you receive. If you unsubscribe from marketing or promotional emails, you may still receive other email communications from us that are administrative or transactional in nature.

C. Opt Out of Interest-Based Ads

To opt out of Interest-based Ads, visit the Network Advertising Initiative and/or the Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. You may also opt out of tracking and receiving tailored advertisements on your mobile device by some mobile advertising companies and other similar entities by downloading the App Choices App. Opting out of interest-based advertising does not opt you out of being served general advertising on the Online Services.
