In order to provide you with individualized service, we collect certain information about you (such as your name, address, date of birth and transactions with us) from information you provide on applications or other forms. We may also collect such information through your inquiries by e-mail or on our Web site. Following are descriptions of how we treat the information you provide to us for various purposes.\n\nInformation we receive in the AAA Mid-Atlantic club and travel agency:  \nWe do not share any information about you with anyone outside our affiliated companies for solicitation or other purposes, except preferred travel partners, AAA Show Your Card & Save Program participants, and other companies that provide goods and services endorsed by AAA Mid-Atlantic, or that provide services to AAA Mid-Atlantic. We only share your information in this way to offer you products and services that best meet your interests and needs and to perform transactions that you authorize or request, or to administer, analyze, and otherwise maintain and improve AAA Mid-Atlantic programs, products and services. The companies outside our own affiliates will use this information only to promote their services to you or to provide such services to AAA Mid-Atlantic, and they are not permitted to share your information or to use it for any other purpose. We may also share your information with the AAA Club in whose territory you reside.\n\nInformation we receive in our insurance agency and in connection with financial services:\n\nNonpublic personal information is defined by law as any personal information about you that we obtain from you or others as part of your purchase or our delivery to you of insurance or a financial product, such as an auto loan. Nonpublic personal information may include your name, address and date of birth; details of coverage, claims and payment history; and financial transactions with us, our affiliates or others. We will only use or disclose your nonpublic personal information for the following purposes: If you apply for insurance coverage, we will collect necessary information from your application, Bureaus of Motor Vehicles, current and prior insurers, and credit information. In connection with issuing a policy, we only disclose this information to potential insurance companies and consumer reporting agencies. We also share nonpublic personal information with others to deliver insurance services (such as processing applications and renewals, administering the policy and performing customer surveys). We may also share nonpublic personal information with other AAA Clubs or financial institutions under joint marketing agreements and with companies that help us develop and market insurance or financial products. At your request, we may disclose to others that you have insurance through our insurance agency, and the name of the insurance company. Whenever we share nonpublic personal information with others, we require them by written agreement to keep your information confidential and secure and to use such information only for the limited purpose for which it was disclosed.\n\nWe safeguard your information:\n\nWe also have internal security practices to safeguard the information we have about you. We restrict access to all of your personal and account information to those employees who need to know that information in order to serve you. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your information, we monitor who has access to our databases, and we reinforce the privacy practices described here to our employees.\n\nYou may ‘opt out’ of offerings:\n\nWe are aware that our members and customers may have differing views on receiving our offers of products and services. If you do not want to receive such offers, please follow the directions provided below. We will process your request promptly. AAA members will continue to receive the Club publication, AAA World, on a bimonthly basis.\n\nDirections:  \nSo that we can promptly and accurately process your request, please submit your request online, if possible, at AAA.com/Optout. If that is not possible, we ask that you submit your request by telephone at 800/763-9900.

The use of such cookies sent by third-party servers is standard on the Internet. As mentioned above, we only share non-personally identifiable information in this way so these partners may bring you targeted offers,. This information can be associated with their cookies but will not include personally identifiable information such as your name or address. You may review our partners' privacy policies when visiting their sites. Once you visit or link to a partner's Web site, their sites may use cookies. We do not control those cookies, and they are not subject to our cookies policy.\n\nWhat to do if you do not want cookies used:   \nIf you do not want cookies used in connection with your visit, or if you wish to limit their use, you can generally adjust your browser settings on your computer.
