To continue to provide innovative solutions and services that respond to your insurance needs, Zinn Insurance collects certain personal information about you, or, if you are a business, your employees (as described under The Types of Information We Collect). At Zinn Insurance, we respect the privacy of our customers. Our personal information handling practices are regulated by law, and this Privacy Policy describes those practices.

ZINN INSURANCE’S PRIVACY POLICY
This privacy policy summarizes the policies and practices of each of Zinn Insurance regarding the collection, disclosure and confidentiality of nonpublic personal financial or health information that we maintain about you, or, if you are a business, your employees. At Zinn Insurance, we are committed to protecting your privacy. We want you to understand what information we collect about you, or your employees, and how we use that information.

We collect nonpublic personal financial and health information about you and, if you are a business, your employees from the following sources:

* Information that we receive from you on applications or other forms (such as your name, address and date of birth).

HOW WE DISCLOSE INFORMATION WITH NON-AFFILIATED THIRD PARTIES
The information that we collect, as described above, is used to make coverage, service, benefit and other insurance or investment-related decisions. We do not share information about our customers, or former customers, with non-affiliated third parties other than as permitted or required by law. For example Zinn Insurance may share all of the information listed above with non-affiliated third parties for, including but not limited to, the following reasons.

HOW WE SHARE CLIENT INFORMATION WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES
We do not share client information with any affiliate.

HOW WE PROTECT INFORMATION
We restrict access to non-public personal financial and health information about you and your employees to those employees and outside service providers who need to know that information to provide products or services to you. We use a secure Internet and e-mail provider to protect the confidentiality of electronic communications. Appropriate action would be taken against any employee who impermissibly shares client information. We regularly review our security measures and employee education programs to help protect this information and when we share information with nonaffiliated third parties, we require that they have standards to keep this information private.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Any controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to, our privacy policy, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

RESERVATION OF THE RIGHTS TO DISCLOSE INFORMATION IN UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES
