Use of cookies and other tracking technologies

Cookies are small files that a website may transfer to a user's computer that reside there for either the duration of the browsing session (session cookies) or on a permanent (until deleted) basis (persistent cookies) that may be used to identify a user, a user's machine, or a user's behavior.

You have the right to tell us NOT to sell or share your personal information. You have the full and free right to opt-out of our disclosure of your personal information to any third parties where the disclosure constitutes “selling” or “sharing” as defined by the California Privacy Rights Act. You may exercise your right to opt-out without fear of discrimination for doing so. To opt-out of our selling or sharing of your information, meaning, we will not disclose your information to third parties for any monetary or other valuable consideration, you can do any of the following:

Click here to be taken to an online opt-out submission form.
Visit Van Nostran Young Coutts's website at: https://www.leavitt.com/vnyc . Click on “Do not sell or share my personal information” to be taken to an online submission form.
Visit any Leavitt Group location in California to request a paper opt-out submission form.
If you are unable to submit an opt-out through any of the above methods, please call our toll-free privacy line at (866) 744-1535 for assistance and a representative will assist in meeting your needs.

You can have an authorized agent submit a request on your behalf. To submit an opt-out through use of an authorized agent, you must provide that agent with written permission signed by you to submit an opt-out on your behalf, except when using an opt-out preference signal. The authorized agent may call our toll-free privacy line at (866) 744-1535 to make the opt-out request and for directions for submitting the proof of authorization and the authorized agent’s proof of identification to the Company. We maintain the right to deny any request from an authorized agent that does not submit sufficient proof that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.

A request to opt-out need not be a verifiable consumer request.

If we deny your request to opt-out, we shall inform you of our decision not to comply and provide an explanation as to why we believe the request is fraudulent.

Opt-Out Preference Signals

Opt-out preference signals provide consumers with a simple and easy-to-use method by which to exercise the right to opt-out of the selling and sharing of their information. Global Privacy Controls (GPC) is a user-enabled opt-out preference signal which can communicate a user’s “Do Not Sell or Share” request on behalf of the person or device. We will not process opt-out preferences from GPC signals. All request must come from the webpage form, toll free number or written request.

Do Not Track (DNT) is a privacy preference that users can set if they do not want web services to collect information about their online activity. We do not respond to DNT signals or other mechanisms (with the exception of GPCs) that provide a choice regarding the collection of personal information about activities over time and across different websites or online services. We encourage users who have DNTs to use GPCs.

We do not and will not use or disclose your sensitive personal information for purposes other than the following:

To perform the services or provide the goods reasonably expected by an average consumer who requests those goods or services.
To detect security incidents that compromise the availability, authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality of stored or transmitted personal information.
To resist malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal actions directed at the business and to prosecute those responsible for those actions.
To ensure the physical safety of natural persons.
For short-term, transient use.
To perform services on behalf of the Company.
For purposes that do not involve inferring characteristics about the consumers, contractors, and applicants.

Retention of Personal Information

We will retain each category of personal information in accordance with our established data retention schedule as indicated above. In deciding how long to retain each category of personal information that we collect, we consider many criteria, including, but not limited to: the business purposes for which the Personal Information was collected; relevant federal, state and local recordkeeping laws; applicable statutes of limitations for claims to which the information may be relevant; and legal preservation of evidence obligations.

We apply our data retention procedures on an annual basis to determine if the business purposes for collecting the personal information, and legal reasons for retaining the personal information, have both expired. If so, we will purge the information in a secure manner.

Third Party Vendors

We may use other companies and individuals to perform certain functions on our behalf. Examples include administering e-mail services and running special promotions. Such parties only have access to the personal information needed to perform these functions and may not use or store the information for any other purpose. Subscribers or site visitors will never receive unsolicited e-mail messages from vendors working on our behalf.

Business Transfers

In the event we sell or transfer a particular portion of its business assets, information of consumers, contractors and applicants may be one of the business assets transferred as part of the transaction. If substantially all of our assets are acquired, information of consumers, contractors and applicants may be transferred as part of the acquisition.

Compliance with Law and Safety

We may disclose specific personal and/or sensitive personal information based on a good faith belief that such disclosure is necessary to comply with or conform to the law or that such disclosure is necessary to protect our employees or the public or for a legitimate business purpose.

We do share the personal information of consumers under 16 years of age only for permitted purposes and with consent.

We do not sell or share personal information from children less than 13 years of age without receiving consent to the selling or sharing of personal information from the child’s parent or legal guardian.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act Exemption

Portions of our services are subject to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. When we are extending credit, or providing financial advice or counseling, those activities are covered by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. The CCPA does not apply to personal information to the extent that we collect, process, sell, or disclose it subject to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. Therefore, certain rights under the CCPA may be limited to the extent such requests to exercise CCPA rights relate to the collection, processing, selling, or disclosure of personal information in connection with financial activities covered by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.

How We Will Verify That it is Really You Submitting the Request

If you are a California resident, when you submit a Right to Know, Right to Access, Right to Delete, or Right to Correct request through one of the methods provided above, we will ask you to provide some information in order to verify your identity and respond to your request. Specifically, we will ask you to verify information that can be used to link your identity to particular records in our possession, which depends on the nature of your relationship and interaction with us. For example, we may need you to provide your name, email, phone number, IP address, browser ID, company you work for, and/or date of your last transaction with the business.

Responding to Your Right to Know, Right to Access, Right to Delete, and Right to Correct Requests

Upon receiving a verifiable request from a California resident, we will confirm receipt of the request no later than 10 business days after receiving it. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable request within forty-five (45) calendar days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to an additional 45 calendar days, or 90 calendar days total from the date we receive your request), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

For a request to correct inaccurate personal information, we will accept, review, and consider any documentation that you provide, and we may require that you provide documentation to rebut our own documentation that the personal information is accurate. You should make a good-faith effort to provide us with all necessarily information at the time that you make the request to correct. We may deny a request to correct if we have a good-faith, reasonable, and documented belief that a request to correct is fraudulent or abusive. If we deny your request to correct, we shall inform you of our decision not to comply and provide an explanation as to why we believe the request is fraudulent.

Responding to Your Request to Opt-Out of the Selling or Sharing of Your Personal Information

We will act upon a consumer request to opt-out within ten (10) days of its receipt. We will notify all third parties to whom we have sold or shared personal information of your request and instruct them to comply with the request within the same time frame. We will notify you when this has been completed by mail or electronically, at your option.

Responding to Your Request to Limit the Use of Sensitive Personal Information

We will act upon a request to limit the use of sensitive personal information within ten (10) business days of its receipt. We will notify all third parties that use or disclose sensitive personal information of your request to limit and instruct them to comply with the request within the same time frame. We will notify you when this has been completed by mail or electronically, at your option.

A request to limit need not be a verifiable request. However, we may deny a request to limit if we have a good faith, reasonable, and documented belief that a request to limit is fraudulent. If we deny your request to limit, we shall inform you of our decision not to comply and provide an explanation as to why we believe the request is fraudulent.

If You Have an Authorized Agent:

If you are a California resident, you can authorize someone else as an authorized agent who can submit a request on your behalf. To do so, you must either (a) execute a valid, verifiable, and notarized power of attorney or (b) provide other written, signed authorization that we can then verify. When we receive a request submitted on your behalf by an authorized agent who does not have a power of attorney, that person will be asked to provide written proof that they have your permission to act on your behalf, and we will also contact you and ask you for information to verify your own identity directly with us and not through your authorized agent. We may deny a request from an authorized agent if the agent does not provide your signed permission demonstrating that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.

Other California Privacy Rights

The California Civil Code permits California Residents with whom we have an established business relationship to request that we provide you with a list of certain categories of personal information that we have disclosed to third parties for their direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year. To make such a request, please send an email to: ccpa-request@leavitt.com, or write to us at the address listed below. Please mention that you are making a “California Shine the Light” inquiry.

Compensation Disclosure

Van Nostran Young Coutts, the Leavitt Group agency with which you do business is part of the American Independent Agency system (Independent Agents), which consists of some 40,000 insurance agencies nationwide. Most small and medium sized businesses in the United States purchase insurance through independent agents. In addition, around 35% of personal insurance in the United States is placed through independent agents.

Each Leavitt Group agency owes duties to and seeks to well serve the insurers we represent, the wholesalers through which we place business, and the agency's employees, shareholders and regulators. In addition, each agency has a duty to be fair, honest and professional in dealing with its customers. We earnestly seek to serve these various duties. We will typically place coverage first with an insurer for which we are agent, and go to the wholesale market as a broker only when coverage cannot be reasonably obtained through one of the companies we represent.

Independent agents represent several, sometimes numerous, insurance companies, none with exactly identical compensation arrangements. We want our clients to understand how we earn our revenue, and the sources of that revenue. We believe this knowledge helps customers make sound insurance buying decisions, and helps assure we have the same expectations and assumptions as do our customers. We will swiftly answer any question you might have as to our agency's compensation on your transaction.

Regular Commissions: Most revenue comes from regular commissions paid on policies placed through the agency. Varying by product and insurer, these commissions range from 5% to 20% of each policy period's premium as to products other than life insurance and surety bonds. Policies with larger premiums tend to have a smaller commission percentage. Policies that are particularly expensive to administer tend to have higher commission rates. Surety bonds typically generate a commission of 20% to 30% of premium. Life insurance commissions vary greatly, but are typically between 55% and 80% of first year's premium, with residuals, if any, of typically 2% in subsequent policy years. This agency's average commission rate on all business it writes for insurers it represents as an agent is approximately 12.5% of total premiums.
Contingent Commissions: Most of the insurers that our agency represents also grant the agency the opportunity to earn an annual contingent commission. Unlike regular commissions, these annual contingent commissions are not tied to a specific policy, but rather are tied to results realized by the insurers we represent on the total business we place with those insurers during the prior year. These contingent commissions are typically based on the agency's collective volume of business with the insurer, and also upon the loss experience (profitability) the insurance carrier had on the business placed by the agency. Essentially, most insurance companies do not pay independent agents their full compensation at the time of sale, but pay part of the compensation only if the agent produces policies which in total are profitable for the insurer. The insurer uses contingent commissions as incentive for independent agents to be honest and accurate in submitting applications for insurance, and skillful in helping the insurer select good risks. Failure to earn a contingent commission is a typical consequence if an agent's business does not meet the insurer's quality or quantity expectations. Our agency has no contingent commission arrangements with insurance companies with which it does not have a direct agency relationship. Also, as is typical in many industries, insurers have incentive based contests where they reward agencies for achieving sales objectives. Typical of these rewards are invitations to the company's sales convention or other incentive trip. Some insurance companies also provide agencies with modest sales support services such as marketing leads, marketing materials, etc.
Policy Fees: In a minority of circumstances, usually with larger or difficult to place risks, insurers provide a policy quote that does not include agent's commissions. In these instances, a separate fee is negotiated with the insured. In such instances, fees are disclosed and itemized on billings to the insured. In some instances, where the commission paid by the insurer is inadequate to cover the cost for the service, a separate disclosed and itemized fee is charged. In such instances, our agency will itemize and disclose the revenue it receives via policy commissions, and that portion it receives via itemized fees. Also, our agency charges and is paid fees for services other than policy placement. These other services include risk management, engineering, or premium financing. Premium financing fees are typically paid directly by the premium finance company. Other such fees are separately itemized and billed to the customer.
Interest and Countersignature Income: In instances where customers pay for insurance policies through the agency (instead of by direct payment to the insurer which issued the policy), the agency may receive a modest amount of income from interest accruing on amounts held for payment to insurers. In addition, the agency charges interest on past-due receivables from these agency-bill customers. In increasingly rare instances, state law requires a resident agent to receive a commission for countersigning a policy issued by an agent from another state.
Other Income: Our agency is a member of Leavitt Group Agency Association (LGAA). LGAA provides a variety of services to its member agencies, such as automation, training, payroll, accounting, and website services. In addition, LGAA owns facilities to assist member agencies in placing insurance coverage on behalf of clients. LGAA owns a premium finance company that assists in the financing of commercial insurance policies issued through member agencies. The profits or losses of LGAA are allocated among member agencies on an equitable basis as outlined in the LGAA Operating Agreement. In addition, some LGAA member agencies own an interest in PacWest Captive Insurance Company (PacWest). PacWest is an Arizona-domiciled reinsurer of selected workers compensation policies issued by The Hartford Insurance Company. The Hartford's standard rate structure applies as to business PacWest reinsures.

Independent agents, including our agency, operate in highly competitive environments. Independent agents and other sellers of insurance compete with each other based on price, product, service, and the financial stability of the underlying insurance carrier. We work hard to serve our customers. We hope that providing this information is helpful. Thank you for your business, and please let us know whenever we can be of service.
