The Site and Offline Services are collectively referred to in this policy as the “Services.” The Services are owned and operated by Trans-Oceanic Life Insurance Company (TOLIC) and Trans-Oceanic Life Insurance Company of America (TOLICA).

Scope and Consent

When you use our Services, you are contracting with Trans-Oceanic Life Insurance Company (TOLIC), or with Trans-Oceanic Life Insurance Company of America (TOLICA). By using our Services, you expressly consent to our collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.

If you register for an account with us, or enroll online or through a call center, you choose to give us your personal information and are not anonymous to us. When you register an account, enroll online or through a call center, create a profile, purchase Services, download a mobile application or otherwise apply for, request or engage with our Services on our Site or through another enrollment system, you may provide personal information. Personal information is only associated with your account/profile on the Site when you sign in as a registered user. Personal information is also collected via Offline Services when you provide it to us, such as applications submitted by you or on your behalf, information about your other transactions with us, and medical exams and tests you take in connection with your application or policy.

Certain information is collected by most browsers or automatically through your device, such as your Media Access Control (MAC) address, internet protocol (IP) address, computer type, operating system name and version, device manufacturer and model, language, internet browser type and version, and browser click-through and usage data. We may use this information for purposes such as analyzing the use of and interaction with our Site and Services, detecting fraud and diagnosing server problems.

Our Careers section of the Site gives you the opportunity to create an “Application Account” to search and apply for jobs. TOLIC and TOLICA is an equal opportunity employer. In addition, when you apply for a job or authorize us to obtain reports about you (e.g., background check), we will collect personal and non-personal information (e.g., name, address, telephone number, resume, employment history, reference information, compensation, compensation history, education, social security number, and so on).

Claims Information:

You may give us your personal information when you submit a claim, or when you make changes to, check on, or update your claim.

Details of how you can opt-out of receiving any communications from us are detailed in the section Notices of Information We Share Pursuant to State and Federal Laws.

Social Media Information:

We may offer sign-in services that allow you to use third-party login credentials to access the Site. We also may offer Services that allow you to share information with third-party social media websites such as Facebook, Google, Twitter, and others.

We may also receive other information from your interaction with our Site (e.g., content viewed and information about the advertisements within the content you have been shown or may have clicked on, etc.). The information we have access to from the third-party social media websites varies by website and is controlled by your privacy settings on that website and by your consent.

Notices of Information We Share Pursuant to State and Federal Laws:

Under various state laws and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, insurers and authorized representatives must describe their information practices in addition to providing a HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.

HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) Privacy Rule provides individuals with the right to receive a notice that describes 1) how their individual health information, personal information and other protected health information (PHI) may be used and/or disclosed; (2) their privacy rights with respect to their PHI (including their right to access their PHI and other rights); and (3) our obligations with respect to that information. TOLIC/TOLICA is fully committed to its compliance with the HIPAA Rules, including the Privacy Rule, in safeguarding PHI.

For our HIPAA-covered insurance policies, TOLIC/TOLICA is federally mandated to send a notice (Notice of Privacy Practices) to its insureds and to post the notice on its website. You should be aware that your state law may provide additional access and amendment rights to you, which differ from those granted by HIPAA. If you would like additional information concerning the collection and disclosure of PHI and your rights under state law to access and amend such information, it will be furnished upon request. Please e-mail your request to customerservice@tolic.com

A few additional important things you should know about our use of tracking technologies (e.g., cookies, HTML-5 stored technologies):

We offer certain features that are available only through the use of tracking technologies.

We use both session and persistent tracking technologies. Tracking technologies (e.g., cookies) can either be persistent (i.e., they remain on your computer until you delete them) or temporary (i.e., they last only until you close your browser).

You are always free to decline tracking technologies if your browser permits, although doing so may interfere with your use of the Site. Refer to the help section of your browser, browser extensions, or installed applications for instructions on blocking, deleting, or disabling tracking technologies such as cookies.

We use tracking technologies with your prior consent, as obtained through your use of this Site.

We encode and protect the tracking technologies that we set, so that only we can interpret the information stored in them.

You may encounter tracking technologies and/or cookies from our third-party service providers that we have allowed on our Site that assist us with various aspects of our Site operations and services, such as Google Analytics.

You also may encounter tracking technologies from third parties on certain pages of the websites that we do not control and have not authorized. (For example, if you view a web page created by another service user, there may be a cookie placed by that web page.)

We may target and track the videos you view on the Site. You consent to our tracking of your video viewing through the Site or third-party social media for up to two years, or as permitted by applicable law, or until consent is withdrawn.

You can also call 1.800.981.8662 to make changes to your personal information or your policy. You should promptly update your personal information if it changes or becomes inaccurate. We may retain some information from closed accounts so that we can comply with law, prevent fraud, assist with investigations, resolve disputes, analyze or troubleshoot programs, enforce our Terms of Use, administer and manage our operations, comply with regulatory or legal requirements, or take other actions permitted by law. Likewise, if your membership is terminated or suspended, we may maintain some information to prevent re-registration.

Security

We store and process your information on our servers located in the United States. We maintain technical, physical, and administrative security measures designed to protect the security of your personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration. Some of the safeguards we use are firewalls, data encryption, physical access controls to our data centers and information access authorization controls. It is your responsibility to make sure that your personal information is accurate and that your password(s) and account registration information are secure and not shared with third parties. Also, as a reminder, the internet and email generally are not always secure, and they should not be used for sending sensitive personal information, such as your SSN, birthdate or financial information. Emails also can be intercepted and/or read by unintended recipients. If you choose to communicate with us by email, then in order to contact us in a more secure manner, and if applicable, you should log into your TOLIC/TOLICA account on the Site, which has additional safeguards in place.
