Privacy Policy.

Some of the information we collect from users may be subject to laws and regulations governing the use and disclosure of health information, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended from time to time, together with the regulations adopted thereunder (“HIPAA”).

When we store, process or transmit “individually identifiable health information” (as defined by HIPAA) on behalf of a healthcare provider, we do so as its “business associate” (as also defined by HIPAA).

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Policy, for any information we collect from you that is subject to HIPAA, we will comply with all applicable HIPAA law and regulations.

1. Information Collected by I Final Expense

The information we collect may include, but is not limited to, your name and contact information, demographic data, health data, financial data, social media data, actuarial data, data, Internet activity, information regarding your use of the Service, and other information.

If you purchase insurance from us, you may also provide your driver’s license information, social security number, and payment information. If you provide it to us, we may also collect from you some of the above information about other members of your household.

3. Information Automatically Collected Through the Service.

I Final Expense, along with our third-party service partners, vendors and business partners may automatically collect information about you when you use the Service.

The information automatically collected about you may include, but is not limited to, device ID, device type, browser type and version, geo-location information, computer and connection information, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the Service, ad data, IP address and standard web log information.

4. Cookies and Web Beacons.

I Final Expense along with our third-party service partners, vendors and business partners may use cookies, locally stored objects and web beacons to automatically collect information about your use of the Service, and for the purpose of targeting and online behavior advertising, including on other sites or applications with which you interact. Cookies are small bits of information that are transferred to and stored in separate files within your computer’s browser.

The Service uses both “persistent cookies” which remain on your computer after you have closed your browser as well as “session cookies” which exist only during a visitor’s online session and disappear from your computer when you close your browser.

Locally stored objects or “flash cookies” are data files that can be created on your computer by the websites you visit and are a way for websites to store information for later use.

Locally stored objects are different than cookies because they are stored in different parts of your computer than cookies. Web beacons are small strings of code that provide a method for delivering a graphic image on a web page or in an email message for the purpose of transferring data.

You can set your browser to reject or disable cookies or to notify you when you are sent a cookie.

However, if you reject or disable cookies, you may not be able to use all portions or all functionality of the Service.

Additionally, you may opt out from receiving some targeted advertising via certain of our partners by visiting the opt-out pages for the following:

Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page (www.networkadvertising.org/choices), the Digital Advertising Alliance (www.aboutads.info), and the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (http://youronlinechoices.eu).

The Service may include third-party advertising, links to other websites and other content from third-party businesses.

In addition, you may be able to adjust your browser settings or other settings so that “do not track” requests are sent to the websites and mobile applications that you use.

However, I Final Expense will not disable tracking technology that may be active on the Service in response to any “do not track” requests that are sent to the Service.
