Privacy Policy

ProAssurance Corporation and its affiliate companies (collectively, “ProAssurance” or “we”) have adopted this Privacy Policy effective August 3rd, 2018.

OUR COMMITMENT TO PRIVACY

ProAssurance recognizes the confidence you place in us when sharing your personal information, and we respect and will protect your privacy. We are committed to protecting the security and confidentiality of your nonpublic personal information by maintaining appropriate safeguards in our data systems to prevent unauthorized access to your information.

TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT

ProAssurance obtains personal information about its customers, employees and business associates (including individuals who submit applications for coverage or employment) in the normal course of conducting its business. This information may include names, postal and electronic addresses, telephone numbers, Social Security numbers, medical records, taxpayer identification numbers and professional licensing numbers. This information may be obtained from applications and other forms submitted by you, or an agent or broker on your behalf, from licensing or regulatory entities, from third party organizations that provide financial and business analytics, from defending claims in which you are a party or from peer review documents. Additionally, information about you may also be obtained from your activity on our website.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our website uses cookies and other tracking technologies to help us keep track of your visit(s), your activity on our website, and to help improve your user experience. We do not store any nonpublic personal information on the cookie.

HOW WE USE, SHARE AND PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION

We restrict access to your personal information to those employees or third parties who require the information to provide products or services you expect from the leader in the professional liability, workers’ compensation, and medical technology and life sciences insurance industries. We will not disclose your personal information to any non-affiliated third parties without your prior authorization, except as we deem necessary to conduct our business after assessing risk and as permitted or required by law. ProAssurance will not disclose your personal information for promotional purposes, and we will not sell, trade or rent your information to third parties.
We follow generally accepted industry standards, including encryption and multifactor authentication, to protect the personal information you submit to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have questions about security on our website, you can contact us.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION

ProAssurance is a U.S.-based company. However, due to the global nature of our business, we are aware that under the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), citizens of the European Union in the European Economic Area (EEA) have a number of rights in connection with their personal data. These rights apply only in certain circumstances and are subject to certain exceptions. The rights include the following:

  1. Right to Withdraw Consent. You have the right to notify ProAssurance that you no longer want us to process or use your personal data. You can do that by contacting ProAssurance via email or the mailing address below.
  2. Right to Data Portability. You have the right to obtain a copy of your Personal Data stored and processed by ProAssurance and direct ProAssurance to transfer your personal data to another data controller via an electronically suitable format.
  3. Right to Erasure/Right to be Forgotten. You have the right to request that any of your Personal Data being stored or processed by ProAssurance is deleted from our records. However, while we can delete your Personal Data from our current records, copies of your data may be stored in ProAssurance’s inactive and archived records and will be deleted in accordance with our then-current document management policy. In some cases, your Personal Data may continue to be stored in archived records of transactions where ProAssurance is required by law to retain such records.
  4. Right to Restriction of Processing. You may request that ProAssurance restrict the processing of your Personal Data. In such case, this may affect your ability to use or navigate our website.

STORING OF CREDIT CARD AND CHECKING ACCOUNT NUMBER(S) FOR ONLINE PAYMENT

PICA does not store your credit card number(s). We may retain and use other nonpublic personal information about you in order to conduct financial transactions authorized by you. For the purpose of on-line credit card payments and electronic check payments, nonpublic personal information may also be stored by Clearwater Payments, LLC, which handles the processing of all of PICA's on-line credit card payments and electronic check payments. Both PICA and Clearwater Payments, LLC are responsible for maintaining physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with federal regulations to guard your information. When processing additional on-line credit card payments, we reveal only partial credit card numbers to prevent the entire number from being accidentally revealed to unauthorized third parties. However, the full number is sent to the appropriate processing entity when you approve payment.

PASSWORD SECURITY

You should take appropriate measures to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer, including not sharing your password with others and always logging off when you are done using a shared computer.

OUR COMMITMENT TO CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13.
