Information We Collect and How We Use It:
In order to provide our full range of services, we may collect the following types of information:
Information you provide:
When you engage us to provide insurance services, we will ask you for personal information (such as your name and email
address). If you decide to request an insurance quote through Paul Hanson Partners Specialty Insurance Solutions, we will
also request certain personal information (such as your Social Security number or birth date and account information,
information about your driving record, and other loss prevention information relevant to obtaining an insurance quote
and relevant to the underwriting process), which we maintain in encrypted form on secure servers. We may get this
information from you directly, or from other sites where you have provided such relevant information but only with
your express written consent. We provide this information to insurance companies and insurance underwriters to obtain
insurance quotes and insurance policies on your behalf. If you are employed by someone else, any information we obtain
from you may be made available to your employer as well if they request it. Likewise your employer may provide
relevant information about its need for insurance, including information about you which we will use in the insurance
underwriting process with your consent. We may combine the information submitted under various forms and services in
order to provide customers with a better experience and to improve the quality of our services. For certain services,
we may give customers the opportunity to opt out of combining such information.

Choices for Personal Information
When you sign up for a particular service that requires registration, we ask you to provide personal information. If we
use this information in a manner different than the purpose for which it was collected, then we will ask for your consent
prior to such use. If we propose to use personal information for any purposes other than those described in this Policy
and/or in the specific service notices, you may “opt-out” – or say no to – having your information shared by calling
800.852.1968 or contacting us through our contact page. We will not collect or use sensitive information for purposes
other than those described in this Policy and/or in the specific service notices, unless we have obtained your prior
consent. If you do choose to decline to submit personal information to any of our services, there may be some instances
in which we may not be able to provide those services to you.

If Paul Hanson Partners Specialty Insurance Solutions becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale
of some or all of its assets, we will provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to
a different privacy policy. We may share with third parties certain pieces of non-personal information, such as the
number of users who searched for a particular term, for example. Such information does not identify you.
Information Security
We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure,
or destruction of data. These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage, and processing practices and
security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store
personal data. We restrict access to personal information to our employees, contractors, and agents who need to know
that information in order to operate, develop, or improve our services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality
obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution if they fail to meet these
obligations.
Data Integrity
We process personal information only for the purposes for which it was collected and in accordance with this Policy or
any applicable service-specific privacy notice. We review our data collection, storage, and processing practices to
ensure that we only collect, store, and process the personal information needed to provide or improve our services.
We take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we process is accurate, complete, and current, but we
depend on our users to update or correct their personal information whenever necessary.
