Your privacy is important to us. To better
protect your privacy we provide this notice
explaining our online information practices and
the choices you can make about the way your
information is collected and used. To make this
notice easy to find, we make it available on our
homepage and at every point where personally
identifiable information may be requested.
This notice applies to all information collected
from or submitted to the Washington Alliance for
Healthcare Insurance Trust ("WAHIT") Web site(s).
To make this notice easier to read we will refer
here only "our Web site", meaning WAHIT.com.
Other WAHIT Web sites may operate under their
own privacy notices.
Our Web site contains links to other Web sites
operated by third parties. WAHIT is not
responsible for the privacy practices or
policies of such third party Web sites.
Our Web site is not set up to automatically
collect personally-identifiable information from
each visitors to our Web site. It may recognize
the home server of visitors, but not e-mail
addresses. For example, we can tell which
Internet Service Provider our visitors use, but
not the names, addresses or other information
about our visitors that would allow us to
identify the particular visitors to our Web
site. This information is used only for internal
purposes by our technical support staff.
Our Web site does track certain information
about the visits to our Web site. For example,
we compile statistics that show the numbers and
frequency of visitors to our Web site and its
individual pages. These aggregated statistics
are used internally to improve our Web site and
for product development and marketing purposes
generally. Those aggregated statistics may also
be provided to advertisers and other third
parties, but again, the statistics contain no
personal information and cannot be used to
gather such information.
In a few areas on our Web site, we may ask you
to provide information that will enable us to
verify whether you are entitled to access and
use certain information, materials and services
available from our Web site, or to enable us to
enhance your site visit, to assist you with
customer service or technical support issues, or
to follow up with you after your visit, or to
otherwise support your broker or client
relationship with WAHIT. It is completely
optional for you to participate. However,
failure to participate may mean that you cannot
access and use certain information, materials
and services.
For example, we may request information from you
when you:
Log-on to certain areas of our Web site,
where you may be prompted to provide us with
your user name and password as a condition
to gaining access to certain information,
materials or services
Register or sign-up to subscribe to a
service
Subscribe to a newsletter or desire to be
added to our mailing lists for other
products or services
Request a quote
Participate in a promotional offer
6. Provide feedback in an online survey.
In each of the instances above, we typically ask
for your name, e-mail address, phone number,
address, the type of business you are in,
product preference information, any applicable
identification number or password that we may
require, as well as other similar personal
information that is needed to register or
subscribe you to services or offers. On
occasion, we may ask for additional information
to enable us to provide you with access to and
use of certain information, materials and
services. In the case of mailed materials, you
will be able to "unsubscribe" to these mailings
at any time.
WAHIT only uses your personal information for
specific purposes
The personal information you provide to us when
using our Web site -- such as your name, postal
or e-mail address or telephone number -- will be
kept confidential and used to support your
broker or client relationship with WAHIT. It
also may be used to notify you of special
offers, updated information and new products and
services from WAHIT, or offers from third
parties that we think may be of interest to you.
Agents or contractors of WAHIT who are given
access to your personal information will be
required to keep the information confidential
and not use it for any other purpose than to
carry out the services they are performing for
WAHIT.
WAHIT may enhance or merge your information
collected at its site with data from third
parties for purposes of marketing products or
services to you.
Information about your visit to this site, such
as number of times you have viewed an ad (but
not your name, address or other personal
information), is used to provide additional
information to you on this site. Such
information may be provided by third parties
who, in the course of providing such additional
information to this site, may place or recognize
a unique "cookie" on your browser. For more
information about cookies and how to "opt-out",
please contact our
Webmaster
Circumstances may arise where we are required to
disclose your personal information to third
parties for purposes other than to support your
broker client relationship with WAHIT, such as
in connection with a divestiture or dissolution
where we sell all or a portion of our business
or assets (including our associated customer
lists containing your personal information), or
if disclosure is required by law or is pertinent
to judicial or governmental investigations or
proceedings.
You can opt-out of receiving further marketing
from WAHIT at any time
We will send you information about our various
products and services, or other products and
services we feel may be of interest to you. Only
WAHIT (or brokers or agents working on behalf of
WAHIT and under confidentiality agreements) will
send you these direct mailings. If you do not
want to receive such mailings, simply tell us
when you give us your personal information. Or,
at any time you can easily opt-out of receiving
further marketing from WAHIT by

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data
accuracy, and ensure the correct use of
information, we have put in place appropriate
physical, electronic, and managerial procedures
to safeguard and secure the information we
collect online.
You can request a copy of the
personally-identifiable information that WAHIT
has collected about you via the Internet by

inaccuracies in this information corrected by
