Our commitment to your privacy:

Why do we collect your information?

We help consumers shop for insurance, discounted health plans and other related products by connecting consumers with insurance agencies, insurance agents, discount program representatives and other vendors. Since we deal with many Providers, the more detailed information you provide to us, the more accurate a quote our Providers may help you locate.

What do we collect and how do we use it?

When you provide your information, you consent to be contacted via automatic telephone dialing system, by artificial/pre-recorded message, by text message at the telephone number you provide, and/or by receiving mail and email at the mailing and email addresses you provide from or on behalf of New York Health Plans, insurance carriers or their agents, and partner companies. Your cellular carrier's message and data rates may apply.

Please note that insurance institutions and other services who subscribe to our system may provide insurance products and other services. By submitting your information to us, you are also authorizing these businesses to contact you directly by mail, email, telephone, or text message with information about insurance products or other services they offer.

You expressly consent to receive phone calls and email regardless of whether you are on any Federal or state DNC ("Do Not Call") and/or DNE ("Do Not Email") list or registry.

If you provide your information and we contact you, or you contact us, we may keep a record, including but not limited to telephone recordings, email logs, and chat logs, of your interaction with us.

You may also provide personal information about other people in your household, such as their name, date of birth, and gender. This information is only used for the sole purpose of completing your request.

By clicking "Get Quotes" you also agree to this Privacy Policy and consent to your receipt of insurance quote reminders and special promotions from New York Health Plans. If you no longer wish to receive promotional emails from us you may opt-out at any time by using the unsubscribe link located at the bottom of each email communication or contact us at info@HealthCare2021.org.

Our users provide us with personally identifiable information. Personally identifiable information generally means any information that may be used to identify an individual.

What Form of Health Insurance Is Better, Private or Governmental?

The merits of choosing between a private or governmental plan depend on a person's financial and employment situation. Governmental plans typically have lower premiums and sometimes even pay for all the medical costs of individuals. However, most of the more favorable governmental plans are only available to individuals who have low incomes, are disabled, or are 65 years of age and older. It is also important to note that increasing amounts of doctors are choosing not to participate in governmental insurance programs, so this could limit coverage options. Most private health insurance plans are provided by employers to their employees, and most of these plans have many of the same benefits and options as governmental plans, albeit more expensive.

Examples of personally identifiable information may include, but is not limited to:

Name
Address
Email address
Phone number
Demographic information
Credit information
Health information
Other financial information

Some of our users requesting quotations for health insurance may also be asked to provide certain personal health information, such as:

Major Health Conditions

Prescription Medications you or a family member may be taking

Whether or not you have been hospitalized in the past 5 years

Whether or not you have been treated by a doctor for a major health condition in the past year

When you access the sites through a mobile device, we automatically collect information on the type of device you use, operating system version, and the device identifier (or "UDID").

We are not responsible, and shall not be held liable, if a Provider or other third party to whom we have forwarded any of the information you submitted to us violates our Privacy Policy or such third party's own privacy policy (if any), or otherwise violates the law.
