Important Information About Your Privacy

Dear Valued Customer:
We thank you for your trust and confidence. We are committed to providing you, our customer, with competitive insurance products and services to help you meet your changing needs. We are equally committed to protecting the private and personal information we collect and maintain about you.

This notice describes our current privacy policy and practices about your nonpublic personal information (“NPI”). You do not need to contact us to benefit from our privacy protections. This notice applies to AAA Life Insurance Company, Auto Club Life Insurance Company, and AAA Life Insurance Company of New York (“AAA Life”, “we”, “our” or “us”), and their agents, if applicable. If you have a relationship with AAA or other AAA companies, you may receive privacy notices from them.

Why is it Needed?
To provide our insurance products to you, we gather personal information and NPI about you. Federal and state laws require us to tell you how we collect, share, and protect your personal information and NPI. Please read this notice to understand how we handle this information.

What is Collected?
The type of personal information and NPI we collect and share depends on the product you have with us. This information can include:

  • Social Security number,
  • Personal medical information, and
  • Bank account number(s).

How is Your Information Protected?
We have implemented high standards to safeguard your personal information and NPI, and maintain strict control over access to such information, including the use of computer safeguards and secured files and buildings. These standards meet or exceed the federal and state law requirements. To ensure the safety and confidentiality of your personal information and NPI, we continually:

  • Maintain and monitor physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards;
  • Review our policies and practices;
  • Monitor our computer networks;
  • Test the strength of our security;
  • Restrict employee access to those who need the information to perform their assigned duties and provide products and services to you; and
  • Perform full and thorough employee background screening to include criminal background and drug screening processes.

Do You Need to Do Anything?
For AAA Life Insurance Company of New York customers, you do NOT need to take any action in response to this Privacy Notice. Because we do not share your personal information or NPI with anyone other than as noted in this notice, you do not need to opt-out. If you have questions, please feel free to contact us.

For AAA Life Insurance Company and Auto Club Life Insurance Company customers, we do not share your personal information or NPI with anyone other than provided in this notice. If you would like to opt out of us sharing your personal information or NPI with nonaffiliates or other AAA companies to market their products or services to you, mail us at the address below or call 1-800-624-1662.

Our Privacy Principles:

  • We do not sell or rent your personal information;
  • We do not share your personal information with non-AAA companies who want to market their products or services to you;
  • We only allow AAA companies to use our customer information for their own marketing purposes;
  • We require all entities providing products or services on our behalf to protect customer information;
  • We do not share your medical information unless you expressly authorize it, it is permitted or required by law, or your application, policy, or contract with us permits disclosure; and
  • All customers (former, existing, and potential) receive the same privacy protections.

Information We May Collect and Use:
Your personal information and NPI cannot be obtained from public sources such as telephone directories or government records. We seek to collect and use information that is necessary to conduct our business, advise you of our products and services, provide you with customer service, and confirm your identity. We may gather NPI about you through sources such as:

  • Applications, forms, and medical exams and tests that you complete.
  • Policies, certificates, and contracts for products that you have with us.
  • Written, electronic, telephone, and other communications from you or your agent, if applicable, or a AAA Club.
  • Your transactions or experiences with us, such as payment, underwriting, and claim details.
  • Persons other than the individual or individuals proposed for coverage.

How We Use Information About You:
We use your personal information to:

  • Process your application;
  • Process your claim;
  • Provide customer service; and
  • Offer additional products that may suit your needs.

Confidentiality of Medical Information:
You may have concerns about the privacy and protection of your medical information. We only use and share personally identifiable medical information for the following purposes:

  • To underwrite life insurance and make eligibility, risk rating, and policy/certificate/contract issuance determinations;
  • To administer your policy/certificate/contract or claim; and
  • For other purposes as required or permitted by law, such as in response to legal process.

Information We May Disclose:
We do not disclose NPI about you to anyone except as required or permitted by applicable law. We do not sell, or otherwise distribute for sale, customer lists or any NPI about our customers. To provide you with quality service, sometimes it is necessary for us to share your personal information with others.

We may share your personal information with:

  • A AAA Club, insurance agent, or broker, if applicable, who is authorized to represent us to better serve you and help meet your product and service needs;

  • MIB, Inc., consumer reporting agencies, or other entities as needed to underwrite policies, process claims, and protect against fraud; and
  • Regulatory authorities, law enforcement, or other government agencies as required by law or in response to a valid subpoena.

Information obtained from a report prepared by an insurance support organization may be retained by the insurance support organization and disclosed to other persons. We require all third parties providing services to us to keep confidential and protect NPI and to use it only for the services we have authorized.

Customer Records:
Maintaining complete and accurate customer information is important to us. In general, you have the right to review, copy, and correct your personal information. We will not make available to you any information collected in connection with or in anticipation of a claim or lawsuit in which you are involved. If you believe that any of our records are incorrect, you may notify us in writing of any correction(s). We will correct your information within 30 days or provide you with the reason(s) the change is not made and inform you of your right to file a statement about the correction(s). Your statement will be kept on file and provided to anyone reviewing your records. Any correction(s) will be sent to those parties who may have received information from us within the past two years or to support organizations that have received such information during the past seven years.
