Protecting Your Privacy

Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) and the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, generally prohibit us from sharing non-public personal information about you with a third party unless we provide you with this notice of our privacy policies and practices describing the type of information that we collect about you and the categories of persons or entities to whom that information may be disclosed. In compliance with the GLBA and the laws of the Commonwealth, we are providing you with this document, which notifies you of the privacy policies and practices of the Hometown Insurance Center.

Information we collect

Information we receive from you on applications or other forms, information about your transaction with us, or other companies, information we receive from the Registry of Motor Vehicles and information we collect about whether you have defaulted on paying insurance premiums in the past.

What personal information we disclose about you

We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our customers or former customers to anyone, except as permitted by law, and then, only for permitted insurance purposes. We do not release, sell or provide information to any non-insurance third party.

How we protect your information

We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about you to those employees who need to know that information in order to provide products or services to you. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to guard your nonpublic personal information.
