The Nigel Mallett Insurance Agency collects only information submitted voluntarily by you through our "Request for Quote" forms or via telephone. The information submitted through "Request for Quote" pages of this website are transmitted via ordinary email. We currently do not collect sensitive information (such as credit card data). If, in the future, we decide to sell products or services online, that information will be encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. If you do not wish your information to be transmitted in this manner, please do not fill out the forms, or leave the fields blank for the information that you do not wanted transmitted via ordinary email.

We protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information.

We have agreements with third parties that allow you to go to their website from our website. If you go to these sites from our site, you may be asked to give non-public personal information for access to their services or products. You may become a part of that business' customer base and be subject to their policies regarding the handling of customer data.

Please be aware that Nigel Mallett Insurance Agency is not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, even though Nigel Mallett Insurance Agency's name or logo may appear on those sites. We encourage you to be aware of this when you leave our site and to read the Privacy Statements of each and every Web site that you visit, as the privacy policy of those sites may differ from ours. Our privacy statement applies solely to the insurancelajolla.com site.

If you sign up for an insurance policy or other financial services from the Nigel Mallet Insurance Agency, your information will be shared with Farmers Insurance Group and any information provided by you for such policy or services will be covered by Farmers Insurance privacy policy, available here.

If you are already a customer and use our links to Farmer.com to view your accounts or pay bills online, you will also be covered by the Farmers.com privacy policy.
