Your email address may be used to:
  • Respond to a site visitor's email.
  • Respond to general inquiries, feedback or other inquiries.

Security issues

Avalon Insurance Company takes precautions to protect its users' personal nonpublic information. When users submit sensitive information to us, the information is protected both online and offline.

While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, Avalon Insurance Company also takes steps to protect user information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. Avalon Insurance Company employees must use password-protected screen savers when they leave their desk. When they return, they must re-enter their password to regain access to your information. In addition, all employees are kept up-to-date on Avalon Insurance Company security and privacy practices.

We have implemented numerous commercially reasonable computer security technology features and practices to prevent the unauthorized release of our access to personal information. The systems that store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment. You should be aware that despite these and other security measures we have in place, no security process is completely guaranteed. Therefore, we cannot warrant absolute security.

If a material change is made to this privacy statement, we will post prominent notice of the nature of such change on our web site.
