Privacy Policy

How Holestin Insurance collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit our site or request a quote.

Last Updated

June 5, 2026

Introduction

Holestin Insurance (“we,” “us,” “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to holestininsurance.com and any other pages or services that link to this policy.

By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our website or services.

Information we collect

We collect two kinds of information:

Personal information

Information that can identify you, which you provide voluntarily through our quote forms, contact form, or phone calls. This includes:

  • Name, email address, phone number, and mailing address
  • Vehicle details (year, make, model, VIN), home details, or business information when requesting a quote
  • Driver’s license number or date of birth, where required to generate an accurate quote
  • Any other information you choose to include in a message or form submission

Non-personal information

This site runs no analytics, advertising, or tracking technology, so we do not build a record of the pages you visit or how long you spend on them. Two things are still handled automatically:

  • Standard request information, such as your IP address, browser and device type, is processed by our hosting provider in order to serve the site, as it is for any website you visit.
  • When you submit a quote request, we store a one-way, salted cryptographic hash of your IP address for up to two days. It is used only to limit how many requests can be submitted from one connection, which is what protects the form from automated abuse. It is never used to identify you, is not linked to your quote request, and is deleted automatically after that period.

How we use information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Prepare and deliver insurance quotes
  • Respond to your inquiries and follow up on quote requests
  • Submit policy applications to GEICO on your behalf
  • Send relevant insurance information, service updates, or promotional communications (you may opt out at any time)
  • Improve our website, content, and the quality of our services
  • Comply with applicable laws and regulatory requirements
  • Detect and prevent fraud or unauthorized use

We will not use your information for purposes that are incompatible with those listed above without notifying you and, where required by law, obtaining your consent.

How we share information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share it only in the following limited circumstances:

  • GEICO and affiliated underwriters: As a GEICO Exclusive Agency, we transmit your quote and application information to GEICO to generate rates and process policies. GEICO’s own privacy practices govern how they handle that data once received.
  • Service providers: We may share data with trusted vendors who assist us in operating our website or business (such as our website hosting, database, and email delivery providers), each bound by confidentiality obligations.
  • Legal requirements: We may disclose information when required by law, subpoena, court order, or governmental authority.
  • Business transfers: If Holestin Insurance is involved in a merger, acquisition, or transfer of assets, your information may be transferred to the successor entity, which will remain bound by this policy.

Cookies & tracking

This website does not use advertising, analytics, or tracking cookies. We do not run Google Analytics, advertising pixels, or session-recording tools, and we do not build a profile of your browsing. Browsing our public pages stores nothing on your device.

The only cookies we set are strictly necessary ones, and they apply solely to the password-protected area our staff use to manage the site. They keep that login session secure. They are never set for visitors browsing the public pages, and they cannot be used to track you across other websites.

Because we set no non-essential cookies, there is nothing for you to opt out of and no consent banner to dismiss. If we ever add analytics or advertising technology, we will ask for your consent first and update this policy before doing so.

Data retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable law. Quote inquiry data is generally retained for up to three years. When information is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it securely.

If you wish to request deletion of your data, please contact us using the information at the bottom of this page.

Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Sensitive data submitted through our website is transmitted using SSL/TLS encryption.

However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security and are not responsible for harm resulting from unauthorized access beyond our reasonable control. If you believe your information has been compromised, please contact us immediately.

Children's privacy

Our website and services are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can locate and delete it promptly.

Your rights & choices

You have the right to:

  • Request access to the personal information we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
  • Request deletion of your personal information, subject to any legal retention obligations
  • Opt out of marketing communications at any time by replying “unsubscribe” to any email or contacting us directly

To exercise any of these rights, please reach out using the contact information below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.

Your continued use of our website following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy. If you do not agree with the revised policy, please discontinue use of our website.
