Our processing of Personal Information will be undertaken consistent with the requirements of applicable privacy laws.

This Privacy Notice describes how we handle Personal Information that we collect through:                 

  • this website (“the Site”), the software applications made available by us for use on or through computers, mobile devices, or other Internet-connected devices (the “Apps”), our social media pages linked from our websites (our “Social Media Pages”) (collectively, including the Site, the Apps and our Social Media Pages, referred to as the “Private Client Select On-line Services”); and

Please note: This Privacy Notice is supplemented by Privacy Notices tailored to our specific relationships with you, including Privacy Notices that are sent to individuals as required under applicable laws and regulations.

Insurance Company and Insurance Broker Privacy Practices

Most of the information we collect from or about you we collect on behalf of the insurance companies that sell you the policies that you obtain through us or that we manage for you.  We use this information to administer and service your policy. Our collection and use of that information is governed by the applicable insurance company’s privacy notices, and not this notice.  Please review the applicable insurance company’s/ies’ privacy notices to understand how your information will be used. 

In addition, we may receive information about you from your insurance brokers, producers or from other third parties who pass this information to us on your behalf.  We use this information to evaluate what different types of policies to suggest to you, and to procure policies at your instruction and on your behalf.  Our agreements with these brokers place limits on what we can do with the information we receive from them.  Please review the applicable broker’s/s’ or other third party’s/ies’ privacy notices to understand how this information will be used. 

This notice only applies to information that we collect about you that we do not share with or process on behalf of these insurance companies or receive from a broker or other third party acting on your behalf.

In addition, this Privacy Notice does not address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, information, or other practices of any third parties, including any third party (such as Producers) operating any site or service to which the Private Client Select On-line Services link.  The inclusion of a link on the Private Client Select On-line Services does not imply endorsement of the linked site or service by us or by our group companies.

Please note that we are not responsible for the collection, usage, and disclosure policies and practices (including the data security practices) of other organizations, such as Facebook, Apple, Google, Microsoft, RIM or any other software application developer or provider, social media platform, operating system, or wireless service provider, or device manufacturer, including any Personal Information you disclose to other organizations through or in connection with the Apps or our Social Media Pages.
