How Does This Web Site Keep My Personal Information Private, Confidential and Secure?
One
of the first things you should notice when you request a disability
insurance quote from our web site is the Secure Seal (also
pictured right). The digital certificate symbol means that that our quote request form
is encrypted, and that no outside source has access to your personal
information when you provide it through the request form. When you
are on the actual quote request page, you will also see a small
"padlock" icon in the lower right hand side of your browser
window at the bottom of the page. This is Internet Explorer's way
of saying that the page you are visiting is secure.
Privacy Statement
Unlike a vast majority of disability insurance sites on the
internet, this is not a lead generation system. Should you request
a disability insurance proposal from this web site, the only people
who will have access to your information are the disability insurance
agents who will run your proposal and their in-house staff. We
guarantee you that you will not be put on any e-mail lists, your
information will not be given to any other company, and that you
will not be spammed by our office. Should you request a long term
disability insurance proposal, you will get one e-mail letting
you know who your assigned disability insurance agent is, one
e-mail containing a link to your personal web page which allows
you to print your quote and application, and no more than three
follow-up emails. Our office has a specific process of follow-up,
and if you decide at any point that you are no longer interested
in a disability insurance policy through Guardian or Berkshire,
we will delete your information from our systems immediately.
Our office takes internet security very seriously, and we probably
dislike spammers more than you do because a large part of our
business comes from people like you who found us online. Understand
we are a brick and mortar business, even without our internet
sales this agency is the second largest disability insurance agency
in the country for Guardian.
Personal Nature of Disability Insurance
This is a product where underwriters from the insurance company
will review your medical records, and see all the details of your
personal health history. You should feel comfortable that the
disability insurance company you choose has an excellent reputation
for treating customers well. Fortune Magazine has ranked Guardian
one of the top ten most respected life and health insurance companies
in the United States in each of the last two years, and A.M. Best
has given both Guardian and Berkshire an A+ for financial stability
and excellence.
