• Mailing a written request to the address provided below (Please see Section 11 Contact Information below) to receive a copy of the Agero Privacy Request Form.

Only you, or in certain states, an authorized agent legally authorized to act on your behalf, may submit a privacy rights request related to your personal information. Parents and legal guardians of a minor child may submit a privacy request on behalf of the minor child, where allowed by applicable law.


We may need to verify your request before completing it. For example, we may ask you to confirm data points we already have about you. We will only use personal information provided in a request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority. Verifiable privacy requests must:

• Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, including the information and documentation required on the Agero Privacy Request Form. 
• Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

Note that we may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit sufficient proof that they have been authorized to act on behalf of another individual. In order to designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, you must provide the authorized agent written, signed permission. The written, signed permission must be presented to us, along with such other required information as specified on the Agero Privacy Request Form to validate and verify the authenticity of the request.

C. Response Timing and Format

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable privacy request within the timeframes required by law, and if we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period.  If we fail to comply with this timeline, you have the right to appeal our refusal to take action on a request within a reasonable period of time. You can exercise this right by contacting us in the “Contact Information” section below.  

We may have a reason under the law why we do not have to comply with your privacy rights request, or why we may comply with it in a more limited way than you anticipated. If we cannot comply with your request the response we provide will explain the reasons we cannot comply with the request in the notice of denial, if applicable. Residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Texas, and Virginia may appeal our refusal to act within a reasonable time, please reach out to us using the contact information provided.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your privacy rights request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
