Your Consent
By using our website, contacting us or requesting a quote, you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this policy. This website does not offer comments, user accounts or public posting. When you use our online quote tool, the information you enter (for example dates of birth, trip dates, coverage amounts and contact details) is used to calculate and display insurance quotes and, if you choose to apply, to process your request with the insurer. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us, subject to legal or contractual restrictions.
Online quote tool and service providers
Our online quote and comparison tool is provided by a technology service provider (Insurance Quotes Cloud) that processes the information you enter on our behalf to generate quotes from participating Canadian insurers. Quote requests and applications may be transmitted to the insurer you select. These providers are contractually required to protect your personal information and to use it only for the purposes for which it was provided.
Language selection and essential cookies
Our website uses only the cookies and similar technologies needed for it to work: for example, to remember your language choice when you use the English/French translation button (this feature uses the Google Translate service, which may set its own cookies) and to allow the quote tool to function. We do not use these technologies to identify, locate or profile you.
