Overview
This Privacy Notice describes the information collection, use, and disclosure practices with respect to American Independent Marketing, LLC (“we,” “us”, “our,” or the “Company”) and its website, WhyAIM.com, and any other websites or platforms that the Company may create in the future (the “Platform”).
The purpose of the Platform is to provide information and tools to licensed insurance agents and prospective insurance agents (“Agents”). We also receive information about individuals who are interested in insurance or financial products (“Consumers”) and make such information available to licensed insurance agents who assist individuals with the purchase of the products. We may also work with “Lead Vendors” – companies that collect inquiries from Consumers and pass such inquiries to Agents and Company representatives. Lead Vendors must obtain appropriate consent from Consumers to be contacted regarding specific products before providing us with such Consumers’ information.
This Privacy Notice uses the term “Personal Information” to describe information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.
Applicability of HIPAA and GLBA
Since we facilitate the sale of a diverse range of insurance products, our processing of some information on behalf of our agents may fall under another state or federal regulatory framework, like the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) and related state laws, or the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLBA”) and related state laws.
Specifically, we act as a Business Associate (as defined by HIPAA) if we receive client Protected Health Information (“PHI”) from lead vendors or on behalf of a health plan that is a Covered Entity (as defined by HIPAA). In our role as a Business Associate we collect, use, and disclose PHI to provide services for or on behalf of health plans. For more information about how PHI is used and disclosed, please review the applicable health plan’s Notice of Privacy Practices.
When we receive client information pertaining to certain insurance or financial products, we may collect non-public personal financial information, which is regulated by GLBA. For more information about how non-public personal financial information is used and disclosed, please review the GLBA Notice provided by the financial institution that issued the clients’ policies or products.
This Privacy Notice applies to personal information that is not covered by HIPAA or GLBA.
