What Is Personal Information?
Personal information is any information that can reasonably
identify you as an individual, by itself or when combined with
other data. The specific personal information that we collect,
use, disclose, and sell depends on our relationship or interaction
with you. This information may be collected when you use our
website at
converageguidance.com,
request our products or services, or otherwise communicate with
us.
Personal Information We Collect Online
We collect personal information from a variety of sources,
including information you provide directly, automatically through
cookies and similar technologies, from public sources, and from
partners or service providers. When you submit information through
forms on our website, you may be asked for details such as your
name, email address, telephone number, Medicare status and
eligibility, enrollment goals, and other health-related
preferences. If you proceed with a consultation, we or our
partners may request additional information such as your date of
birth, mailing address, and other information relevant to your
desired healthcare outcome.
We also collect information about the devices you use to access
the site, including browser type, IP address, operating system,
and the domain name of your internet service provider. This
information helps us improve the design, content, and performance
of our services. We use cookies and similar technologies to
enhance your experience, store preferences, track trends, and
deliver more relevant advertising across the devices you use. We
currently do not respond to Do Not Track signals from browsers.
Use of Personal Information
We use the personal information you provide to personalize your
experience, deliver requested services, respond to inquiries, and
provide customer support. This may include contacting you, either
directly or through trusted partners, to discuss your Medicare
options or related services. We may combine information gathered
from you with information from other sources to maintain and
analyze our service offerings, improve user experiences, and
support internal business operations.
We may transfer or sell aggregate data that describes the
demographics, usage patterns, or other characteristics of our
users in a way that does not reveal individual identities. If we
maintain personal information in a deidentified form, we will not
attempt to reidentify it except to confirm that our
deidentification processes meet legal requirements.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We may disclose personal information to affiliates, service
providers, and business partners who assist us in operating our
website, providing services, conducting surveys, or processing
transactions. We may share information in response to legal
requests, to establish or defend legal claims, to investigate
suspicious activity, or when required to protect the safety or
rights of individuals. If our company or assets are acquired, your
information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
Some of our websites allow you to post reviews, comments, or other
user-generated content. Any information you submit in these public
forums may be read, collected, or used by others. We may also
share information with third-party partners when you participate
in joint promotions, and their use of your information will be
governed by their own privacy policies. We will disclose your
information to other parties when we have your consent or when you
direct us to do so.
External Parties
This Policy describes our own privacy practices and does not
extend to third parties that we do not own or control. Other
organizations may have privacy statements that differ from ours,
and we encourage you to review the privacy policies and terms of
service of any third-party feature, platform, or provider you
interact with. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of
other companies such as social media platforms, device
manufacturers, wireless carriers, or operating system providers.
Any personal information you disclose directly to these
organizations will be subject to their policies.
We collect personal information in order to manage transactions,
comply with legal obligations, and provide services. We do not
collect, use, or disclose personal information for purposes other
than those identified in this Policy or as permitted by law. We do
not sell or share sensitive personal information for cross-context
behavioral advertising.
Third-Party Websites
Our site may contain links to third-party websites, including
providers that assist us with certain services. If you visit or
transact with these websites, you may be asked to provide
additional information such as payment details. We do not control
the privacy practices of third-party websites and are not
responsible for the content or policies of such sites. We
recommend that you review the privacy policies of any website you
visit.

Your Choices
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to request
access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal
information. You may request that we disclose the categories and
specific pieces of personal information we have collected, and you
may obtain your data in a portable format where legally required.
If you exercise these rights, we may need to retain certain
information for legal, accounting, or business purposes, or to
complete transactions you have requested.
You may opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information,
object to certain uses of your data, or unsubscribe from
promotional communications by following the instructions in the

Protecting Your Information
We implement reasonable and appropriate safeguards to protect

agencies in accordance with legal requirements.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to
fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, including
satisfying legal, accounting, or reporting obligations. We
determine retention periods based on the amount, nature, and
