Your privacy is important to us. That is why we have taken steps to maintain appropriate confidentiality with regard to all information obtained from you during your visit to this website. Because this information is private, we have taken steps to protect its confidentiality.
Personally Identifiable Information or Third-Party Personally Identifiable Information Collected About You and How it is Used
Visitors to the Meemic website are free to explore the site without providing any personal information. In order to evaluate what Meemic website visitors want and how to improve usage of the site, Meemic logs a website visitor’s IP address (this is often a temporary IP address assigned by an Internet Service Provider [ISP] each time you log into the ISP), the type of operating system you are using and the type of browser software used. Meemic may also keep track of the portions of the Meemic website you visit. This activity is done without Meemic’s knowledge of your name, email address or other personally identifiable information.
If you decide to submit a request for a quote via the Meemic website, Meemic requests personal information about you, others in your household and your vehicles or properties in order to provide an accurate premium quote. During the quote request process, we may require information such as your name, occupation and ZIP code. Other information that will be needed during this process includes a description of the items to be insured and the amount of insurance desired.
If you are filing a claim via the Meemic website, Meemic will also request information about you and the accident. To inquire about an open claim, Meemic will request your claim and policy number(s).

You will know you are on a secured page if you see the lock icon on the bottom of your Web browser window, or if the URL has changed from “http://www.Meemic.com” to “https://www.Meemic.com.”
Email messages are not secure unless you are using a secure email program. Email messages are subject to viewing, alteration, and copying by potentially anyone. For your safety, we encourage you to contact us directly (via postal service or telephone) regarding any confidential or sensitive matters.
