The Information We Collect

Non-public personally identifiable information ("Information") is information that identifies you and is not available to the general public. The following sections tell you more about how and when we collect your Information.

During the quoting, application, or claims handling processes you may give us Information such as your:

  • name
  • address
  • phone number
  • email address
  • driver's license number
  • date of birth

If you gave us your email address, Eagle Insurance may use it from time to time to notify you of such things as new services, special offers, or to confirm transactions. If you do not wish to be contacted by email for non-policy related communications, you may unsubscribe by following the instructions at the bottom of any Eagle Insurance email you receive.

If you are a policyholder, you can log in to your account at theeagleman.com, click on "Update Email Preferences" on the screen and choose the level of communication you'd like to receive from us.

Information About Your Transactions

We may collect Information about your transactions and experiences with us and others, such as your payment history, coverage, and vehicle changes.

Information From Third Parties

We may receive Information about you from consumer reporting agencies, which provide us with motor vehicle reports, claim reports, and/or credit information where permitted by law. When you ask for a rate quotation, we may obtain credit information if permitted by applicable state law.

Our sales and service representatives do not have access to the details of your credit information. Other companies who view your credit report will not see the Eagle Insurance inquiry. It will be visible only to you. Our inquiry will not affect your credit score or credit rating. If you commit to purchase a policy with Eagle Insurance, we will also confirm your motor vehicle record and claims history. As permitted by law, we may also review your motor vehicle record, claims history, and/or credit information in connection with any renewal.

Access and Correction of Personal Information

You have the right to access and correct the personal information that we have collected about you. Upon your request we will provide you with a notice of our insurance information practices that describes how those rights may be exercised.

Upon the request of residents of other states, we will take reasonable steps to verify the accuracy of the personal information in our records.

The Information We Disclose

Information about our customers or former customers will only be disclosed as permitted or required by law. Information about you that has been collected is maintained in your policy records.

We use this Information to process and service your policy; with your consent; or as directed by you. We may also disclose it to persons or organizations as necessary to perform transactions you request or authorize. Information about our former customers and about individuals who have obtained quotes from us is safeguarded to the same extent as Information about our current policyholders.

Following are some examples of how we may disclose Information:

We must exchange Information about you with our Insurance companies, agencies, investigators, appraisers, attorneys, and other persons who are or will become involved in processing your application and servicing your policy.

When you are involved in a claim, policy information is provided to adjusters and the businesses that will repair your vehicle.

We may share Information with persons or organizations that we have determined need the Information to perform a business, professional, or insurance function for us. These include businesses that help us with administrative functions. All of these entities are obligated to keep the Information that we provide to them confidential and to use the Information only for the purpose for which the Information was provided.

Information may be provided to organizations conducting actuarial research or audits. In this case, you will not be individually identified in any research report.

  • if ordered by a subpoena, search warrant or other court order

Confidentiality and Security

We restrict access to your Information to employees who we have determined need it in order to provide products or services to you. We train our employees to safeguard customer information, and we require them to sign confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements. We maintain strict physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your Information from unauthorized access by third parties.
