Privacy
Statement
We respect
the privacy of our customers and our web site visitors. We do use
information you provide to better serve your insurance needs. We
also recognize that this information belongs to you and that we
must treat it accordingly. The following statement spells out our
privacy policy in more detail. The policy applies to www.chubb.com
and other sites on the World Wide Web owned and operated by Chubb.
Our Use
of Personal and Non-Personal Information. We collect two kinds of
information about our on-line visitors, personal and non-personal
information. Visitors are not required to register to access the
public pages of Chubb's sites. Non-personal information is collected
to track the total number of guests visiting Chubb sites and to
guide our efforts to improve our sites. The non-personal information
we monitor includes the browser type and operating system being
used by our visitors; areas of the sites visited; date and time
of access; host or service-provider information, and identification
of the referring site. This information is used exclusively for
our internal purposes and is not disclosed to any non-affiliated
third parties except our producers. Personal information that can
identify a visitor, such as name, address or policy information,
is collected only when voluntarily offered and solely for purposes
that are clearly identified on our sites. Access to pages with content
specific to agents, brokers or customers is password-protected and
requires pre-registration. Personal information acquired through
registration is kept confidential and will not be disclosed to third
parties except as may be required by law. Chubb does not seek personal
information from children.
Our Use
of Customer Information. Chubb's policy is to limit access to customer
information to those who need it to serve customers’ insurance needs.
We do not disclose customer information to third parties other than
our agents and brokers, except as necessary to conduct business,
e.g., settling claims. We do not conduct direct on-line or telephone
sales programs to our customers using information obtained from
our web sites without prior consent.
Our Use
Of "Cookies" Chubb may place an electronic "cookie" in the browser
files of a guest's computer. Cookies are pieces of information that
a web site transfers to an individual's computer hard drive for
record-keeping purposes. Cookies themselves do not enable us to
access any personal information about our visitors; however, they
do allow Chubb to analyze guests' use of our sites. This analysis
helps us better understand which areas of our sites are most useful
and popular so we can plan improvements and updates accordingly.
Chubb does not use cookies to retrieve information from a visitor’s
computer that was not originally sent in a cookie.
Internet
Communication. The privacy of communication over the Internet cannot
be guaranteed, because the Internet is not a secure medium. Chubb
does not assume any responsibility for any harm, loss, or damage
you may experience or incur by the sending of personal or confidential
information over the Internet by or to Chubb.
Consent.
By using this site, you signify your consent to Chubb's on-line
privacy policy. If you do not agree to this policy, please do not
use this site. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to update,
change, modify, add, or remove portions of this policy from time
to time. Any changes to this privacy policy will be promptly disclosed
in this area.
