Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“FNF”) respect the privacy and security of your non-public
personal information (“Personal Information”) and protecting your Personal Information is one of our top priorities.
This Privacy Statement explains FNF’s privacy practices, including how we use the Personal Information we receive
from you and from other specified sources, and to whom it may be disclosed. FNF follows the privacy practices described
in this Privacy Statement and, depending on the business performed, FNF companies may share information as described
herein.
Personal Information Collected
We may collect Personal Information about you from the following sources:
• Information we receive from you on applications or other forms, such as your name, address, social security number,
tax identification number, asset information, and income information.
• Information we receive from you through our Internet websites, such as your name, address, email address, Internet
Protocol address, the website links you used to get to our websites, and your activity while using or reviewing our
websites;
• Information about your transactions with or services performed by us, our affiliates, or others, such as information
concerning your policy, premiums, payment history, information about your home or other real property, information
from lenders and other third parties involved in such transaction, account balances, and credit card information; and
• Information we receive from consumer or other reporting agencies and publicly recorded documents.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We may provide your Personal Information (excluding information we receive from consumer or other credit reporting
agencies) to various individuals and companies, as permitted by law, without obtaining your prior authorization. Such
laws do not allow consumers to restrict these disclosures. Disclosures may include, without limitation, the following:
• To insurance agents, brokers, representatives, support organizations, or others to provide you with services you have
requested, and to enable us to detect or prevent criminal activity, fraud, material misrepresentation, or nondisclosure
in connection with an insurance transaction;
• To third-party contractors or service providers for the purpose of determining your eligibility for an insurance
benefit or payment and/or providing you with services you have requested;
• To an insurance regulatory authority, or a law enforcement or other governmental authority, in a civil action, in
connection with a subpoena or a governmental investigation;
• To companies that perform marketing services on our behalf or to other financial institutions with which we have
joint marketing agreements; and/or
• To lenders, lien holders, judgment creditors, or other parties claiming an encumbrance or an interest in title whose
claim or interest must be determined, settled, paid or released prior to a title or escrow closing.
We may also disclose your Personal Information to others when we believe, in good faith, that such disclosure is
reasonably necessary to comply with the law or to protect the safety of our customers, employees, or property and/or
to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order or legal process.
Disclosure to Affiliated Companies – We are permitted by law to
share your name, address and facts about your transaction with other FNF companies, such as insurance companies,
agents, and other real estate service providers to provide you with services you have requested, for marketing or
product development research, or to market products or services to you. We do not, however, disclose information we
collect from consumer or credit reporting agencies with our affiliates or others without your consent, in conformity
with applicable law, unless such disclosure is otherwise permitted by law.
Disclosure to Nonaffiliated Third Parties – We do not disclose Personal Information about our customers or former customers to nonaffiliated third parties, except as outlined herein or as otherwise permitted by law.
Confidentiality and Security of Personal Information
We restrict access to Personal Information about you to those employees who need to know that information to provide
products or services to you. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with federal
regulations to guard Personal Information.
Access to Personal Information
Requests for Correction, Amendment, or Deletion of Personal Information
As required by applicable law, we will afford you the right to access your Personal Information, under certain
circumstances to find out to whom your Personal Information has been disclosed, and request correction or deletion of
your Personal Information. However, FNF’s current policy is to maintain customers’ Personal Information for no less
than your state’s required record retention requirements for the purpose of handling future coverage claims.
For your protection, all requests made under this section must be in writing and must include your notarized
signature to establish your identity. Where permitted by law, we may charge a reasonable fee to cover the costs
incurred in responding to such requests. Please send requests to:
