We hope you will take some time to read this Privacy Statement carefully.

Introduction

Covie Systems, Inc. ("Covie" or "We") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy. Covie's services allow third parties to access certain end user data held by insurance companies (the "Services"). This policy describes:

  • The types of information we may collect or that end users (“you” or “You”) may provide (the “End User Information”) when you access, or use websites, desktop or mobile applications that utilize the Services; and
  • Our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information.

This policy applies only to information we collect, use and share through the Services. This policy DOES NOT apply to information that:

  • We collect offline or on any Covie websites or apps.
  • You provide to or is collected by any third party outside of the Services.

Our websites and apps, and these other third parties may have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to read before providing information on or through them.

The Services are intended solely for residents of the United States. Covie is based in the United States, and if you use the Services, your personal information may be processed in the United States. You should not use the Services from outside of the United States.

Please read this policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. This policy may change from time to time (see Changes to Our Privacy Policy). Your continued use of the Services after we revise this policy means you accept those changes, so please check the policy periodically for updates.

Children Under the Age of 16

The Services are not intended for children under 16 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 16 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 16, please contact us at the contact information below.

We may also collect your phone number, email address, security questions and answers, and one-time password to help verify your identity before connecting a Policy account. When providing this information, you give the Application provider and Covie the authority to act on your behalf to access and transmit your End User Information from the relevant insurance company. You may also provide us with identifiers and other information, including your name, email address, and phone number, when you contact us or enter any such information on our websites.
