Effective Date: February 18, 2022:
At www.attorneyprotective.com (the “Site”), protecting your privacy is of the utmost importance. Information furnished by you to us will be treated with the greatest respect and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Please find below details about our practices for handling and securing your personal information. In this policy, “personal information” refers to names, home and office contact information and any other “information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.”
This Privacy Policy applies only to our customers and visitors who use the Site and who reside in the United States. We do not knowingly solicit business from outside the United States or from any jurisdiction within the United States where we are unlicensed, or do not have authorized representatives (either employed or under contract), or where we do not have filed rates or products.
The Site is owned and operated within the United States for the benefit of the Attorney Protective program by an affiliate. This privacy policy applies to the Attorney Protective programs’s security practices and to all data collected by, used by or exchanged through the Attorney Protective program or through affiliates.
WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
1. Anonymous Information and Aggregated Statistics
You can visit the Site anonymously without providing any personal information and without becoming a registered user. Our web servers may collect user information, including IP address, name of the domain used to access the Site, the referring URL, and user agent, which identifies the type of browser and platform used to access the Site. We also use this data to monitor Site performance and to make the Site easier and more convenient to use.
We may compile aggregated statistics about customers, sales, traffic patterns and services, and may provide these statistics to third parties who will analyze the information and help provide online products and services. Any statistical information shared with third parties will not include personal information.
2. Personal Information Collection
We may ask for personal or business information in order to assist us in meeting your various needs, including:
- providing products or services requested;
- servicing your account;
- improving our services; and
- developing and/or informing you of additional products or services that may be of interest
Information sought may depend on the product or service requested. As a result, we may request personal information including name, street address, ZIP Code, telephone number, fax number, email address, and area of practice or degree (if applicable). Other personal information may be collected through comments, feedback, participation in surveys, or other requests for information.
Further personal information may be required during the application and underwriting process. That information may include, among other things, claim payments, loss history or other underwriting information, credit card numbers, bank account information or social security numbers. In certain circumstances, we may require information primarily used for individual, family or household purposes.
3. Message Boards and Chat Areas
This Site may contain a bulletin board, message board or a chat area. Please remember that your communications in these areas are public and may be viewed by others. Please disclose your personal information in such areas with care.
4. Email Communication and Online Surveys
We may send email communications with information that we believe you may find useful, including information about our products and services or offerings from affiliates or third parties. You may “opt-out” of receiving any further emails of this nature by following the instructions contained in the e-mail.
At times, we may conduct online surveys to better understand the needs, profiles and experience of our visitors. Our hope is that you will respond to the surveys. However, we leave the choice to you.
5. Children and Privacy
This Site is not intended for anyone under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly solicit information from children, nor do we knowingly market our products or services to children.

They allow the website to recognize your browser and may store certain information, such as the number of visits, average time spent, page views, and other statistics. You may be able to block cookies or receive a warning when a cookie is being sent (typically in the privacy settings of your browser). However, some features of our Site may not function properly without the cookie. Cookies do not gather personal information about you but you can read our Privacy Policy for more information about how we protect any information we receive from you.
WHAT INFORMATION DO WE SHARE AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE IT?
We may share personal information with our affiliated companies and third parties for purposes including providing products or services, servicing your account, or to offer you other products and services that may be of interest to you.

HOW IS YOUR INFORMATION SECURED AND PROTECTED?
www.attorneyprotective.com uses encryption and authentication tools (password and user identification) to protect your personal information. However, emails sent via the Site may not be secure during transmission. If your communication is very sensitive, or includes highly confidential information such as a credit card number or premium or loss information, you may want to send it by regular mail or verify that encryption is used.
Our employees are aware that certain information provided by our customers is confidential and is to be protected. Employees who misuse customer information are subject to disciplinary action.
