You can visit the website of SUM Insurance without offering information about who you are or providing any personal information about yourself.
However, when you visit this website, we may collect usage information (including, but not limited to, IP addresses, browser and platform types, domain names, access times, and referral data) to help us understand how our website is navigated and used. This data is used only to measure and improve the effectiveness of our website.
There will be times, such as when you request information or a publication, when we will need to obtain personal information from you or about you. Such personal information may include contact information such as name, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone number, etc. However, this information will not be collected without your knowledge and consent.
The information we receive about you or from you may be used by us to process your inquiry or request; to provide information to you about our services; to comply with any law, regulation, or court order; and to help improve our website or the products or services we offer. However, if you tell us that you no longer wish to receive information about our services, we will not send any further material.

A cookie is a tiny element of data that is sent to your browser to be stored on your hard drive so that we can recognize you when you return.

Confidentiality
We do not add your name to mailing lists unless you specifically request that we do so. We do not share, sell, lease or rent our mailing or customer lists to third parties. We may, however, use third parties as service providers to help us administer e-mail alerts. If your personal information is provided to any of these third party service providers, we will require that such information be maintained by them in strictest confidence and that it only be used for the purpose of providing the contracted service.
In the event that we sell our business, merge with another entity or otherwise restructure our business, we reserve the right to disclose personal information collected by us to the counterparties to these transactions and to their professional advisors under an obligation of confidentiality, to the extent required for the purposes of due diligence and closing of the subject transaction.

We take the security of your personal information seriously and take appropriate technical and organizational measures against unauthorized or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data. However, although we take appropriate measures to protect the security of the information communicated through the website, no Internet-connected computer system can be made absolutely secure from intrusion.
