If you have questions regarding our Privacy Notice or practices, please contact us:
We collect information about you so that we can process service contract transactions, administer or service your Plan, and operate our business. We collect personal information that we receive from you and from others. Our goal is to limit the collection and retention of your personal information to that which is necessary to provide you with our products or services and to operate our business.
In order for us to provide you with requested products or services and to administer our business, we may collect certain information from you, including personal information. This personal information may include but is not limited to:
To provide requested products or services, we may also collect information from other sources. Other sources may include your real estate agent, escrow holder, property manager, service provider, or our business partners. We may also collect information about you from public records, other insurance companies, anti-fraud databases, sanction lists, court records, government agencies, and credit reporting agencies when we believe it is necessary to prevent financial crime.
If you make a service request under a Plan, we may collect the following information from you, along with the service request details, in order to administer the service request:
To administer a service request, we may collect the above information from other sources, including your real estate agent, escrow holder, property manager, service provider, or other representative. We may also collect information about you from public records, government agencies, and credit agencies when we believe it is necessary for service request administration.
If you are a prospective Plan Holder, we may use your personal information to consider your application for a service contract and related services or products, or for other business purposes as allowed by law. We may use it to communicate with you, your representatives, and others. We may further use your personal information to prevent and detect fraud, unauthorized transactions, or other financial crimes, and to comply with applicable laws and regulations, such as those relating to money laundering, sanctions, and anti-terrorism, or to satisfy other legal or regulatory requirements. We may also use personal information to collect and process your premium and other payments.
If you are a Plan Holder, we may use your personal information to communicate with you, verify your identity, respond to your inquiries or complaints, and provide you with requested information or services. We may use personal information to send you important information and alerts about changes to our Plans, information about our other products and services or for administrative or marketing purposes. We may also use your personal information for internal business operations such as auditing, finance and accounting, billing and collections, data management and security, and records management or other business purposes as allowed by law. Personal information may be used to respond to law enforcement requests, subpoenas and court orders, and to respond to requests from government authorities and regulators and to comply with applicable laws. We may also use personal information if we believe it necessary to establish and protect our legal rights, protect our operations, privacy, safety or property, and/or that of our affiliate companies, you or others.
If you place a service request, we may use your personal information for the above purposes and to administer, investigate, litigate and/or potentially settle your service request. We may also use your personal information to detect, prevent and report fraud or other illegal activity.
We consider your personal information confidential and limit sharing it outside of Old Republic Home Warranty. In the course of conducting our business, there are circumstances in which we may disclose your personal information to others. We share your personal information only with your authorization or as otherwise permitted or required by law. When personal information is shared with another party to perform services on our behalf, we expect them to maintain the confidentiality of your personal information, to use the information only for the limited purpose for which it was shared and to abide by all applicable federal and state privacy laws. Such sharing may include:
You may also provide information through your use of technology when you access and interact with our website or mobile application(s) (“sites”) through your computer, tablet or mobile device. We may collect information you provide to us through forms on our sites such as applications and login pages. In addition, we may also collect information about your visits so that you may access certain services and so that we may better understand the interests of those that visit our sites. If applicable, when you use our mobile applications or visit our sites from a mobile device, like a smartphone, we may also collect additional information from your device, including your location, device identifier, and information about your mobile network.
We may use a variety of tracking technologies to collect this information, including, without limitation, the following:
We may use technologies that automatically collect information when you visit our sites, view our advertisements, or use our products or services ("Browser Log Data"). This browser log data may include information such as your IP address (or other unique device identifier, including one that we may assign); certain details about your browser, operating system, and hardware; your location, if available; the URL that referred you to our sites; your activities on our site, including your preferences; and other logging information, such as the date and time of your visit. We also use web server logs to collect and store information about site usage. We may use this information for fraud detection and prevention, security, and to ensure our sites are functioning properly.
When you visit our sites, we may use tracking technology such as cookies to automatically record details about your visit. Cookies are small text files stored by your internet browser on your computer's hard drive that allow sites to remember information about users. A cookie, by itself, does not tell us your email address or who you are. It cannot be used to collect data from your hard drive or personal information about you. We may use cookies and other device identifiers to collect information (such as browser type, time spent on the site and pages visited) and to support certain features of our site. For example, we may use these technologies and information collected for security purposes, to facilitate navigation, to display information more effectively, and to personalize your experience with the site. Your internet browser and other software used to enhance your online experience can be set to reject cookies or alert you when a cookie is placed on your device. Follow the instructions provided with your internet browser or other software. Please note that if you disable cookies on your browser, you may not be able to access certain features or content on our sites.
A Beacon is a small graphic image or other web programming code (also known as “1x1 GIFs” or “clear GIFs”) that may be included in our site’s pages and messages. Beacons may be invisible to you, but any electronic image or other web programming code inserted into a page or e-mail can act as a Beacon. Beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including, without limitation, counting website visitors, monitoring website visitor navigation, counting e-mail open rates, or counting online article/post views and link clicks.
An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the sites, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your computer, tablet or phone from our web server or a third party service provider, and is active only while you are connected to the sites, and is deactivated or deleted thereafter.
Browser fingerprinting is the process of collection and analysis of information from your computer, tablet or phone, such as, without limitation, your operating system, plug-ins, system fonts and other data, for purposes of identification.
ETag is a feature of the cache in browsers. It is an opaque identifier assigned by a web server to a specific version of a resource found at a URL. If the resource content at that URL ever changes, a new and different ETag is assigned. Used in this manner, ETags are a form of device identifier. ETag tracking may generate unique tracking values even where the consumer blocks HTTP, and/or HTML5 cookies.
Recognition technologies are technologies, including application of statistical probability to data sets, which attempt to recognize or make assumptions about users and devices (e.g., that a user of multiple devices is the same user).
The sites may use GPS (global positioning systems) software and other location-based technologies such as iBeacons to locate you so we may verify your location, deliver you relevant content based on your location, as well as allow you to share your location to other users as part of the services we provide via the sites. In addition to traditional GPS location-based services, others we work with may install low power Bluetooth, wifi, radio transmitters, or other devices in physical locations, which emit a signal that your smart phone can detect to pinpoint your location or otherwise interact with the sites. In addition, you may be able to send your location information via the sites to other users. You should consider the pros and cons involved in disclosing your location information to us and to other people. Where a user of the sites requests that their location information be revealed to other persons, the user will be provided options for managing sharing services, which may be through third party services such as through Twitter and Facebook. We are not responsible for the acts, omissions or policies of such third parties.
Old Republic Home Warranty has official pages on social media websites such as Meta, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, and YouTube that enable customers to discuss their experiences with Old Republic products and services. When you interact with us on social media websites we may collect information such as your feedback, preferences, user ID and/or user name associated with that social media service, and any information or content you have permitted the social media service to share with us, such as your profile picture, email address or friends list, and any information you have made public with that social media service. Old Republic Home Warranty recommends you never include sensitive personal, financial or other confidential information when posting or commenting online. Any posts you make on our official social media pages (including posts that contain pictures, comments, suggestions, opinions, complaints or personal information) are available to others who use those pages and are subject to the terms of use and privacy policies of those sites. Please refer to the policies of those companies to understand your rights and obligations regarding your posts.
We may use third-party analytics services, like Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, to collect, monitor and analyze visitor data (such as Browser Log Data, cookies and other tracking data), and trends for marketing optimization and to increase the functionality of our website and mobile applications. These services may track details about your online activities over time and across different websites. These services may also allow us and others to provide you with targeted advertisements or other content that you may be interested in based on your online activities.
The Google Analytics service tracks and reports website traffic and provides us insight into behavior information relating to visitor age, gender and interests. Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting give us insight into behavior to help us understand browsing behavior and give you a better experience when you visit our website. You can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customize Google Display Network ads using the Ads Settings.
These third-party services have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information. If you want to prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics, you may wish to take advantage of Google Analytics' currently available opt-outs for the web. We use Google Tag Manager to capture certain non-individually identifiable customer traffic data, including: time spent on page, pdf file downloads, video activity (plays, pauses, percent of video watched, etc.), scroll depth (how far down a webpage a user scrolls), and social actions taken on a website (shares and outbound links to social channels).
If you would like to learn more about targeted ads that may be based on your online activities, and the choices that you may exercise for certain sites and advertisers, you may wish to visit the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance.
The security of your personal information is important to us, and we strive to implement and maintain reasonable, commercially acceptable, security procedures and practices appropriate to the nature of the information we store, to protect it from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure. We restrict access to personal information about you to those employees who need to know the information in order to provide products and services to you. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet or electronic database can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us in accordance with the “contact us” section below.
You are also responsible for taking reasonable steps to protect your personal information against unauthorized disclosure or misuse. We recommend you utilize the latest, updated version of your web browser. It is important that you create a strong password and protect against unauthorized access to your user name, password and your computer. You should not share your user name and password and be sure to log out and close your browser when you have completed your session.
We keep the categories of personal data described in this policy for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described or for as otherwise legally permitted or required, such as maintaining the Services, operating our organization, complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes, and for safety, security, and fraud prevention. This means that we consider our legal and business obligations, potential risks of harm, and nature of the information when deciding how long to retain personal data. At the end of the retention period, personal data will be deleted, destroyed, or deidentified.
Our website or mobile application(s) may contain links to other websites or internet resources that are not operated by us. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party websites or services. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third-party's website. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy and terms of use of every website you visit.
Only persons that are the age of majority in your jurisdiction or older have permission to access our website or mobile applications. Our website and mobile applications are not designed for, or target, users under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect, use, or disseminate personal information from users that age. If you are a parent or guardian and you learn that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will promptly delete it. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any personal information from or about a child, contact us:

If, however, you are located outside of the United States and chose to provide personal information to us, please note that we transfer the information to the United States and treat the information in a manner consistent with United States law. The data protection laws in the United States may differ from those of the country in which you are located, and your personal information may be subject to access requests from governments, courts, or law enforcement in the United States.
Depending on your state of residency, you may have certain rights related to your personal data, including:
Access and Data Portability. You may confirm whether we process your personal data and access a copy of the personal data we process. To the extent feasible and required by state law, depending on your state, data will be provided in a portable format. Depending on your state, you may have the right to receive additional information and it will be included in the response to your access request.
Correction. You may request that we correct inaccuracies in your personal data that we maintain, taking into account the information's nature and processing purpose.
Deletion. You may request that we delete personal data about you that we maintain, subject to certain exception under applicable law.

To exercise any of these rights, please click here. To appeal a decision regarding a consumer rights request, you may contact us by sending an email with the subject line “Data Rights Appeal” to compliance@orhp.com.
Some browsers and browser extensions support the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) that can send a signal to process your request to opt out from certain types of data processing, including data "sales" as defined under certain laws. When we detect such a signal, we will make reasonable efforts to respect your choices indicated by a GPC setting as required by applicable law.

You also have a right to obtain a copy of that information, subject to limited exceptions. To access the information about you, send a signed written request to us at P.O. Box 5017, San Ramon, CA 94583, or e-mail us at compliance@orhp.com and include your name, covered property address, and your Plan number. For your protection, we may use reasonable means to verify your identity prior to sending you this personal information. If you believe that any information about you is inaccurate, you may notify us in writing about any correction, amendment, or deletion you believe should be made.
