This Privacy Policy describes how Ai Surety Bonding USA, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal information submitted through our website (www.aisuretyusa.com) and in connection with our surety bond services. We are a licensed surety bond agency based in Sugar Land, Texas, operating across multiple US states.
We are a covered entity under Texas Insurance Code Chapter 601 and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), which require us to maintain a privacy notice and protect nonpublic personal financial information. We act as a licensed insurance and surety agent. The issuing surety carrier may also provide you with a separate privacy notice.
We collect personal information when you request a bond quote, submit a bond application, contact us directly, or use our website. This may include your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address, your business name, entity type, and business address, your date of birth and Social Security Number for underwriting purposes, financial information relevant to bond approval such as credit history, payment details when you purchase a bond, and information you provide through our contact forms or by phone.
We also collect non-personal data automatically through cookies and analytics tools. See our Cookie Policy for details.
We use the information we collect to process bond applications and issue surety bonds, communicate with you about your application, policy, or account, verify your identity and assess creditworthiness for underwriting, comply with applicable federal and state laws and regulations, respond to inquiries and provide customer support, send service-related notices and, where you have consented, marketing communications, and detect and prevent fraud.
We may share your nonpublic personal financial information with licensed surety carriers and underwriters for the purpose of issuing bonds, regulatory bodies or law enforcement where required by law, and third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website or conducting our business, subject to confidentiality obligations.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not share your information with non-affiliated third parties for marketing purposes.
If you have not opted out, we may share certain nonpublic personal financial information with non-affiliated third parties as permitted by law, such as service providers acting on our behalf under a confidentiality agreement. You have the right to limit this sharing.
As required by Texas Insurance Code Chapter 601 and GLBA, we provide this privacy notice at the time you first engage our services. We will also deliver an updated notice to you annually for as long as the customer relationship continues.
You may receive this annual notice by email, by mail, or by a prominent posting on our website at www.aisuretyusa.com/privacy-policy, provided we notify you of the posting and give you a way to request a paper copy at no charge. Contact us at the details below to request a paper copy at any time.
You have the right to opt out of our sharing of your nonpublic personal financial information with non-affiliated third parties, to the extent permitted by law. To exercise this right, contact us by email at dustin@aisuretyusa.com, by phone at 281-845-1468, or by mail at Dustin SanVido, Ai Surety Bonding USA, LLC, 1 Wellington Lane, Sugar Land, Texas 77478.
Your opt-out request will take effect within a reasonable time after we receive it. You do not need to opt out again unless you are a new customer or we tell you otherwise. Note that some information sharing is required by law or necessary to complete your transaction, and an opt-out does not apply to those disclosures.
Your data is stored on secure servers located in the United States. We use reasonable technical and administrative safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, to comply with legal obligations, and to resolve disputes. Bond application data is typically retained for a minimum of five years in accordance with state insurance recordkeeping requirements.
Depending on your state of residence, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your data. Residents of California have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information we collect and how it is used. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.
If you have provided consent, we may contact you with information about our services and surety bond products. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by contacting us directly or using the unsubscribe link in any email we send.
Our website may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their policies independently.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Where the change is material, we will notify existing customers by email or by direct mail. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
