Retention periods for the above categories of personal information may vary. Sompo retains personal information for as long as we have a legitimate purpose for doing so. Generally, Sompo retains personal information for as long as the User account is active and otherwise for as long as necessary to carry out the purposes described above. Sompo also retains personal information for as long as Sompo believes necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements.
Subject to our verification requirements, Sompo provides Users with the privacy rights described in this section.
To submit a privacy rights request or to submit a request as an authorized agent, use our Contact Us link https://sompohorizon.com/contact/ or email us at [email protected]. Sompo does not accept or process requests through other means.
You have the right to request access to personal information collected about you and information regarding the source of that information, the purposes for which we collect it and the third parties and service providers with whom we share it. You are entitled to access your personal information up to twice in a 12-month period, with subsequent requests subject to a service fee.
You may request any of the following for the period that is 12-months prior to the request date:
You have the right to request that we delete your personal information unless Sompo has a basis for keeping it under applicable law.
You have the right to correct inaccurate personal information about you that Sompo maintains. Correction requests are subject to certain limitations, and we may choose to delete rather than correct your personal information in some circumstances.
U.S. Privacy Laws have broad and differing concepts of “Selling” personal information for which an opt-out is required, and “Sharing” for “Cross-Context Behavioral Advertising” (i.e., use of personal information from different businesses or services to target advertisements). States also have an opt-out of “Targeted Advertising” (defined differently but also addressing tracking, profiling and targeting of advertisements). Sompo may sell or share your personal information and/or use your personal information for Targeted Advertising, as these terms apply under U.S. Privacy Laws.
Sompo provides Users an opt-out of Sale/Sharing/Targeting that is intended to combine these state opt-outs into a single opt-out available regardless of state of residency.
Third-party digital business may associate cookies and other tracking technologies that collect personal information about you on the Sompo Services or otherwise collect and process personal information that we make available about you, including digital activity information. We understand that giving access to personal information on the Sompo Services or otherwise to third-party digital business could be deemed a sale and/or share under some U.S. Privacy Laws and thus Sompo will treat such personal information (e.g., cookie ID, IP address and other online IDs and internet or other electronic activity information) collected by third-party digital business, where not limited to acting as our service provider, as a sale and/or share and subject to a Do Not Sell/Share/Target opt-out request. We will not sell your personal information, share your personal information for Cross-Context Behavioral Advertising or process your personal information for Targeted Advertising if you make a Do Not Sell/Share/Target opt-out request.
Opt-out for non-cookie personal information: If you want to limit our processing of your non-cookie personal information (e.g., your email address) for Targeted Advertising or opt-out of the sale/sharing of such data, make an opt-out request to [email protected].
Opt-out for cookie personal information: If you want to limit our Processing of your cookie-related personal information for Targeted Advertising or opt-out of the sale/sharing of such personal information, you need to opt-out using our cookie management tool enables you to exercise such an opt-out request and enable certain cookie preferences on your device. Since your browser opt-out is designated by a cookie, if you clear or block cookies, your preferences are no longer effective, and you must enable them again via our cookie management tool. Beware that if you use ad blocking software, our cookie banner may not appear when you visit the Sompo Services, and you may have to use the link above to access the tool.
We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of Users under 16, unless we receive affirmative authorization (“opt-in”) from either the User who is between 13 and 16 years old or the parent or guardian of a User who is less than 13 years old. If you think we may have unknowingly collected personal information of a User under 16 years old, please contact us at [email protected].
Sompo may disclose your personal information for the following purposes, which are not a sale or share: (i) if you direct us to disclose personal information; (ii) to comply with any User rights request you submit to us; (iii) disclosures amongst the entities that constitute Sompo or as part of a Corporate Transaction; and (iv) as otherwise required or permitted by applicable law.
For personal information that qualifies as sensitive personal information under U.S. Privacy Laws, you have the right to request that we limit our use of your sensitive personal information. U.S. Privacy Laws do not allow you to limit the following processing purposes: (i) that which is necessary to perform the services reasonably expected by the average User; (ii) to ensure security and integrity; (iii) short term transient use; (iv) performing services for you; and (v) maintaining the quality or safety of the Sompo Services.
To submit a request to exercise your User privacy rights or to submit a request as an authorized agent, visit https://sompohorizon.com/contact/, call us at 1-347-218-5847 or email us at [email protected]. Please check for and respond to any follow-up inquiries we make. Please be aware that we do not accept or process requests through other means (e.g., via fax).
To submit your request, please be prepared to provide verifying information, such as your name, email address, telephone number, and/or account information. We will not fulfill your Right to Know / Access, Right to Delete or Right to Correct request unless you have provided sufficient information for us to reasonably verify you are the User about whom we collected personal information. We do not verify opt-outs of Sell/Share/Target or Limitation of Sensitive personal information requests unless we suspect fraud.
To protect Users, if we are unable to verify a privacy rights request, we are unable to honor the request. We will use personal information provided in a verified privacy rights request only to verify identity or authority to make the privacy rights request and to track and document responses unless Sompo also received the personal information for another purpose.
You may use an authorized agent to make a request for you, subject to our verification of the agent, the agent’s authority to submit requests on your behalf and of you. Any request submitted by your agent is subject to an identity verification process (except Do Not Sell/Share/Target requests). Generally, we will request that your agent provide proof, such as a signed affidavit indicating you permitted your agent to submit the request on your behalf and as allowed by U.S. Privacy Laws, we may also require you to either verify your identity or directly confirm with us that you provided the agent permission to submit the request. Once your agent’s authority is confirmed, they may exercise rights on your behalf subject to the agency requirements of applicable U.S. Privacy Laws.
You may appeal Sompo’s decision regarding a request by email at [email protected]. Please use the same email address that you used to submit the initial request to submit your Request to Appeal. Otherwise, we may not be able to tie your Request to Appeal to your initial request.
We aim to complete requests as soon as reasonably practicable. Please note that it may take additional time to verify and fulfill agent-submitted requests. If you have an account with us, you may also make certain changes directly through your account profile page.
Some personal information that we maintain is insufficiently specific for us to be able to associate it with a verified User (e.g., data tied only to a pseudonymous browser ID). We do not include that personal information in response to those requests. If we deny a request, in whole or in part, Sompo will explain the reasons in our response.
Sompo will make commercially reasonable efforts to identify personal information that we process to respond to a privacy rights request. In some cases, particularly with voluminous and/or typically irrelevant data, we may suggest you receive the most recent or a summary of your personal information and give you the opportunity to elect whether you want the rest. We reserve the right to direct you to where you may access and copy responsive personal information yourself. We will typically not charge a fee to fully respond to your requests; provided, however, that we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act upon a request, if your request is excessive, repetitive, unfounded or overly burdensome. If we determine that the request warrants a fee or that we may refuse it, we will give you notice explaining why we made that decision. You will be provided a cost estimate and the opportunity to accept such fees before we will charge you for responding to your request.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the U.S. Privacy Laws. We may charge a different price or rate or offer a different level or quality of good or service, to the extent that doing so is reasonably related to the value of the applicable personal information.
We may offer discounts or other benefits to users enrolled in certain rewards or promotional programs.
Sompo Services does not generally assign monetary or other value to Users’ personal information and our promotions activity changes continually. To the extent the law requires that a value be assigned to such programs, or the price or service differences they involve, Sompo Services values the personal information collected and used under each program as being equal to the value of the discounts or other financial incentives provided in each such program, based upon a practical and good-faith effort to assess on an aggregate basis for all collected information: (1) the type of personal information collected in each program (e.g., email address), (2) the use of such information by Sompo Services in connection with its marketing activities, (3) the range of discounts provided (which can depend on each User’s purchases under such offers), (4) the number of individuals enrolled in respective programs, and (5) the products for which the benefits (such as price difference) can apply. These values can change over time. Note that this description is without waiver of any proprietary or business confidential information, including trade secrets, and it does not constitute any representation about generally accepted accounting principles or financial accounting standards.
Sompo may collect, use and disclose your personal information as required or permitted by applicable law, which may override your rights under U.S. Privacy Laws. Sompo is not required to honor requests if doing so would infringe Sompo’s or another party’s rights or conflict with applicable law.
We may share personal information with third parties for such third parties’ own direct marketing purposes. California residents may opt-out of this sharing by contacting us at priva[email protected] or [email protected] (Attn: Privacy).
You must put the statement “Shine the Light Request” in the body of your correspondence. In your request, please attest to the fact that you are a California resident and provide a current California address for your response. This right is different than, and in addition to, the privacy rights above, and must be requested separately. However, a Do Not Sell/Share/Target opt-out is broader and will limit our sharing with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes without the need for making a separate Shine the Light request. We will not accept Shine the Light requests by telephone or by fax and are not responsible for requests not labeled or sent properly, or that are incomplete.
