What Customer Information Do We Collect?
We collect and use information we need to conduct our business, to advise you of our products and services, and to provide you with customer service. We may collect and maintain several types of customer information needed for these purposes. The information collected varies depending on the products or services you request, and may include:

- Information from your transactions with us and our affiliates or others, including, without limitation, how long you have been a Security First customer, your payment history, your type of insurance coverage, your premiums, underwriting information and claims records.
We do not routinely collect customer credit information from consumer reporting agencies or other unaffiliated third parties; however, we reserve the right to do so. We do not share customer credit information in those limited situations we collect such information.
What Do We Do With Your Customer Information?
We use your customer information to enhance our service to you, underwrite your policies, process your claims, ensure proper billing, service your account, measure your interest in our products or services, improve existing products and develop new ones, and monitor customer trends. As permitted by federal and state laws, we may enter into agreements to share or exchange information with companies engaged to work with us to enhance the quality of the services provided to you. Under these agreements, the companies may receive information about you, but they are required to safeguard this information and they may not use it for any other purposes. Such third parties are required by Security First to conform to our privacy standards.
We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our policyholders or claimants to any third parties except as permitted by law. We do not sell customer information to anyone, and we do not share customer information with nonaffiliated companies that would use that information to market their own products or services to you. We may be required by law or regulation to disclose information to third parties. For example, we may be required to disclose information in response to a subpoena, to prevent fraud, or to comply with rules of, or inquiries from, industry regulators.
How Do We Protect Your Customer Information?
We take our responsibility to protect the privacy and confidentiality of customer information very seriously. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with federal standards to store and secure information about you from unauthorized access, alteration and destruction. We continually review our privacy and customer information security policies and practices, monitor our computer networks, and test the strength of our security. Under our control policies, for example, access to customer information is restricted to individuals who need it in order to service your policy, or provide products and services to you, and who are trained in the proper handling of such information. Employees who violate these confidentiality requirements are subject to disciplinary proceedings.
