Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

When you use the Benchmark Insurance website, we may collect information you choose to provide directly to us as well as limited technical information generated through your use of the website.

Information you provide may include your name, email address, telephone number, mailing or property address, insurance interests, information submitted through quote or contact forms, and any additional details you choose to include in a message.

When you request information about insurance coverage, we may also collect details related to your home, vehicles, property, business, drivers, existing insurance, or other information necessary to understand your request.

Our website and the services used to operate it may also collect technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring website, pages visited, and general website activity.

How We Use Your Information

Benchmark Insurance may use information collected through this website to respond to questions, provide requested information, follow up on quote requests, assist with insurance-related inquiries, and communicate with you about services you have requested.

Information may also be used to operate and maintain the website, improve website functionality and user experience, understand how visitors use the website, help protect against fraudulent or unauthorized activity, and comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

We only ask that you provide information reasonably related to your request.

Quote Requests and Insurance Information

Submitting a request for a quote does not create insurance coverage, bind a policy, or guarantee that coverage will be available.

Information submitted through a quote request may be reviewed by Benchmark Insurance and, when appropriate, shared with insurance carriers or other parties involved in evaluating or providing the insurance coverage you request.

Additional information may be required before an insurance quote, application, or policy can be completed.

Please do not submit highly sensitive information such as Social Security numbers, financial account information, passwords, or payment-card information through a general website contact or message form unless you are specifically directed to use a secure method for providing that information.

Cookies and Website Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to support normal website operation, remember preferences, understand website traffic, and improve visitor experience.

Some website features may also be provided by third-party services, such as website hosting, analytics, social media, maps, embedded content, or form-processing tools. Those services may use their own cookies or similar technologies according to their respective privacy practices.

You can typically manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the way some website features function.

How Information May Be Shared

Benchmark Insurance may share information when reasonably necessary to respond to your request or provide insurance-related services.

This may include sharing information with insurance carriers, service providers that help operate or maintain our website, technology providers that process website forms or communications, professional advisers when appropriate, or government and regulatory authorities when required by law.

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to protect our rights, investigate fraud or security concerns, or protect the safety and security of our website, business, customers, or others.

Third parties that receive information may have their own privacy practices and legal obligations regarding how information is handled.

Insurance and Financial Privacy

Information collected in connection with an insurance application, insurance policy, or customer relationship may be subject to additional privacy protections, insurance regulations, carrier policies, or separate privacy notices.

This website Privacy Policy is intended to explain Benchmark Insurance's online privacy practices and does not replace any privacy notice that may be provided separately in connection with an insurance product or service.

Data Security

Benchmark Insurance takes reasonable steps to protect information under its control from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no website, electronic transmission, or data-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should use care when sending personal information electronically and avoid submitting sensitive information through unsecured communication methods.

Data Retention

We may retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your request, provide services, maintain appropriate business records, meet legal or regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, or protect our business interests.

Information that is no longer reasonably needed may be deleted, anonymized, or retained as required by applicable law or recordkeeping requirements.

Third-Party Websites

The Benchmark Insurance website may contain links to insurance carriers, social media platforms, service providers, or other third-party websites.

Once you leave our website, the privacy practices of the third-party website apply. Benchmark Insurance does not control the privacy practices, content, or security of websites operated by other organizations.

We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party website before providing personal information.

Social Media and Embedded Content

Our website may include links to or content from social media platforms and other third-party services.

If you interact with those services, the provider may collect information about your interaction according to its own terms and privacy policies. Your use of those platforms is governed by the privacy practices of the applicable provider.

Certain information may need to be retained when required for insurance, business, legal, regulatory, fraud-prevention, or recordkeeping purposes.

Email and Communications

If you contact Benchmark Insurance by email, telephone, or through a website form, we may respond using the contact information you provide.

You may ask us to stop sending nonessential promotional communications at any time. Communications relating to an existing request, policy, claim, transaction, or other service may still be sent when appropriate.
