It is the policy of Corebridge Direct to protect customer and employee Social Security Numbers that we collect in the course of our business as confidential.

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our Web site.

A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's device tied to information about the user. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. For the session ID cookie, once users close the browser, the cookie simply terminates. A persistent cookie is a small text file stored on the user's hard drive for an extended period of time. Persistent cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions. If users reject the cookie, they may still use our site. Persistent cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site. We do not respond to browser do-not-track signals at this time.
Technologies such as cookies, web beacons (also known as pixel tags), or similar technologies are used by Corebridge Direct and our service providers. These technologies are used in analyzing trends, administering the site, and understanding users' movements around the site. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by these companies on an individual as well as aggregated basis.
We partner with one or more third parties to either display our advertising on our website or to manage our advertising on other sites. Our third party partners may use technologies including, but not limited to, cookies and web beacons to gather information about your activities on this site and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements based upon your browsing activities and interests. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you ads, you may opt out by visiting the self-regulatory program opt-out page at www.aboutads.info/choices to opt out in desktop and mobile web browsers on the particular device from which you access the opt-out options.

If you do not wish for cookies or web beacons to be placed on your computer, most commercially-available web browsers permit you to prevent that from taking place.
As is true of most websites, we use third party tracking partners to gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.
Our website may also use a website recording service which may record mouse clicks, mouse movements, page scrolling and text keyed into website forms, not including personal information. Data collected by this service is used to improve our website usability. The information collected is stored and is used for aggregated and statistical reporting, and is not shared with anybody else."
Unrelated third party sites may also use cookies, scripts, tags and related technologies to gather information about your activities on their sites and share this information with parties like Corebridge Direct to append to their own information in order to enhance their marketing activities. The collection of your information on these sites is governed by that site’s Privacy Policy.
We may provide you the opportunity to participate in reviews conducted via email. If you participate, we will request certain personally identifiable information from you. Participation in these reviews is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (including, but not limited to, name and shipping address), and demographic information (including, but not limited to, zip code).
We use this information to evaluate our level of customer service. With your consent we may post your reviews on our Web site along with your name. If you want your review removed please contact us at Client.Services@corebridgedirect.com.
We use a third-party service provider to conduct these reviews; that company is prohibited from using our users' personally identifiable information for any other purpose. We will not share the personally identifiable information you provide through a review with other third parties unless we give you prior notice and choice.
This Web site takes precaution to protect our users' information. Access to users' information is restricted in our offices, and we follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. When you enter sensitive information (including, but not limited to, a credit card number) on our order forms, we encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, an agent or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Every year, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our users' information is protected. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment in a locked facility. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about the security at our Web site, send an email to Client.Services@corebridgedirect.com.
