Privacy Policy

Leif provides this privacy notice to our website visitors, customers, vendors, employees, contractors, and consultants so that you will know what we will do with the customer business information and personal information (including but not limited to Social Security numbers, personal financial information, and health information) that we may receive from you directly or from your health care provider, or receive from another source that you have authorized to send us such information. We at Leif are concerned about your privacy and assure you that we will do what is required of us to safeguard your customer business information and personal information.

“Personal information” means any data that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person, including information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household. Personal information includes, but is not limited to, Social Security numbers, personal financial information, and health information.

What Types of Information Will Leif Collect?

Leif collects customer business information and personal information from you required both for our business and pursuant to regulatory requirements. Without it, we cannot provide our products and services for you. We will be collecting customer business information and personal information about you from:

  • Applications or other forms, such as name, address, Social Security number or tax identification number, assets and income, employment status and dependent information.
  • Your transactions with us or your transactions with others, such as account activity, payment history, and products and services purchased.
  • Consumer reporting agencies, such as credit relationships and credit history. These agencies may retain their reports and share them with others who use their services.
  • Other individuals, businesses, and agencies, such as medical and demographic information.
  • Visitors to our websites, such as information from on-line forms, site visiting data and on-line information collection devices, commonly called “cookies”.

What Will We Do With Your Customer Business Information and Personal Information?

The information Leif gathers is shared within our company to help us maximize the services we can provide to our customers. We will only disclose your business and personal information as is necessary for us to provide the insurance products and services you expect from us. Leif does not sell your business information or personal information to third parties, nor does it sell or share customer lists.

We may also disclose all the information described above to third parties with which we contract for services. In addition, we may disclose your customer business information and personal information to medical care institutions or medical professionals, insurance regulatory authorities, law enforcement or other government authorities, or to affiliated or nonaffiliated third parties as is reasonably necessary to conduct our business or as otherwise permitted by law.

Leif will keep your customer business information and personal information for as long as we may need it to provide you with insurance services and/or to comply with our contractual and/or legal obligations.

Our Security Procedures

At Leif we have put in place reasonable measures consistent with industry and legal standards to ensure the security and confidentiality of customer information. We will handle the customer business information and personal information we receive by restricting access to such information about you to those employees and agents of ours who need to know that information to provide you with our products or services or to otherwise conduct our business, including actuarial or research studies. Our computer database has multiple levels of security to protect against threats or hazards to the integrity of customer records, and to protect against unauthorized access to records that may harm or inconvenience our customers. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with federal and state regulations to safeguard all your business and personal information, especially Social Security numbers. Specifically, we protect the confidentiality of Social Security numbers, prohibit unlawful disclosure of Social Security numbers and limit access to Social Security numbers.
