HB 2157 Insurance transactions; privacy, consumer protection.
Introduced by: Harvey B. Morgan | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Insurance transactions; privacy; consumer protection. Establishes standards for consumer privacy protection that states are allowed to implement under the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act relating to sales of insurance by depository institutions. These provisions are made applicable to any person who lends money or extends credit and who solicits insurance in connection with the transaction. The measure also amends existing privacy protection provisions to provide consumers with additional notices required by the Act. Insurers or agents are required to give a financial information practices notice not less than once in any consecutive 12-month period, which notice will explain the individual’s right to “opt out” of having his financial information disclosed to a nonaffiliated third party. The notice also describes the types of financial information that may be disclosed to affiliates and nonaffiliated third parties and the categories of persons to whom financial information may be disclosed. Medical record information and privileged claim information may not be disclosed to affiliates or nonaffiliated third parties unless prior written authorization is obtained. An information practices notice that describes the types of personal information (including medical record information) that may be collected and disclosed will still have to be given every two years as required under current law.
