Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 1, 2026

Catalyst Insurance Agency LLC (“Catalyst”, “we”, “us”) is an independent insurance agency at 512 Main Street, Suite 9, Shrewsbury, MA 01545. We take the privacy of our clients and website visitors seriously. This policy explains what information we collect through catalystinsuranceagency.com and in the course of helping you with insurance, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.

Information we collect

Information you give us on our website. When you use one of our forms, we collect what you enter:

  • Get a Quote: your name, phone number, email address, the types of coverage you’re interested in, your town or ZIP code, and, if you choose to provide them, your current insurance company, renewal date, business name and type, best time to reach you, and any notes.
  • Contact Us: your name, email address, phone number, company (optional) and your message.
  • Careers: your name, email address, phone number, the areas you’re interested in and your message.

Our website forms don’t ask for sensitive details such as your Social Security number, driver’s license number or date of birth. Please don’t include them in a form or message; we’ll collect what’s needed securely when we work on your quote.

Information you give us as a client. To quote, place and service insurance, we collect information from you on applications and forms, by phone and email and in person. Depending on the coverage, this can include contact details, dates of birth, driver’s license numbers, vehicle and property details, business information, prior insurance and claims history, and payment-related information.

Information from others. With your knowledge, and as permitted by law, we may receive information about you from insurance companies, consumer reporting agencies (for example motor vehicle records, claims history and, where allowed, credit-based insurance information) and others involved in your insurance, such as a lender or a previous agent.

Information collected automatically. When you visit our website, our hosting provider and security tools record technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you visit, to keep the site running and protect it from misuse. With your consent through our cookie banner, Google Analytics also collects information about how visitors use the site (see Cookies and analytics below).

How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

  • respond to your quote request or message and follow up with you;
  • compare coverage options, and apply for, place, service and renew your insurance;
  • help you with claims, billing questions and policy changes;
  • consider you for a position if you contact us through our Careers page;
  • keep our website working, secure and free of spam, and understand how it’s used so we can improve it;
  • meet our legal, regulatory and licensing obligations.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your personal information, and we don’t share it with other companies for their own marketing.

We share information only as needed to help you with insurance, run our agency, or comply with the law:

  • Insurance companies we work with, so they can quote, underwrite, issue and service your policy and handle claims, along with insurance support organizations and consumer reporting agencies used in that process.
  • Others involved in your insurance, such as claims adjusters, a lender or mortgage company listed on your policy, or another agent when you ask us to work with them.
  • Service providers that help us operate, under confidentiality obligations. These include Vertafore (our agency management system, where client and policy records are kept), Microsoft 365 (our email, where website form submissions are delivered), our website host, Google Analytics, Cloudflare (spam protection on our forms) and CookieYes (our cookie consent tool).
  • Regulators, courts and law enforcement, when the law requires it, for example during an insurance department examination or in response to a subpoena.
  • A successor business, if Catalyst is ever sold or merged, under the same protections described here.

When we share information, we share only what’s needed for the purpose.

The insurance companies that issue your policies also send you their own privacy notices, which explain how they collect, use and share your information.

Contacting you

When you submit our Get a Quote form, you agree that Catalyst may contact you about your quote by phone, email or text message, as stated on the form. We’ll use your contact details to follow up on your request and to service your policies if you become a client. We won’t send you marketing texts without your separate consent. If you’d like us to stop contacting you, or to stop texting you, just tell us by phone, by email or in a reply to one of our texts.

Cookies and analytics

Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Our site uses:

  • Necessary cookies, which the site needs to work and to remember your cookie choice.
  • Analytics cookies from Google Analytics, which tell us in aggregate how many people visit, which pages they view and how they found us. They’re set only if you accept analytics cookies in our cookie banner. Google processes this data under its own privacy policy.

You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie Settings link at the bottom of every page, or block cookies in your browser settings. The site works without analytics cookies.

Our forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to tell people from spam bots, and the map in our footer is provided by Google Maps. These services may collect technical information, such as your IP address, under their own privacy policies.

How we protect your information

We limit access to your information to the people at Catalyst who need it to serve you, and we maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect it, consistent with Massachusetts and federal requirements for protecting personal information. Our website uses an encrypted (HTTPS) connection, and form submissions are delivered to our office email.

No website or email system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, so please don’t send Social Security numbers, account numbers or other sensitive details through our website forms or regular email. Call us and we’ll arrange a secure way to send them.

How long we keep it

We keep client information for as long as you’re a client and afterwards for as long as insurance regulations and our business records require. If you send us a quote request, message or Careers submission and don’t become a client, we keep it in our business records so we can follow up or help you in the future, unless you ask us to delete it (see Your choices below).

Your choices

You can ask us to:

  • tell you what personal information we hold about you;
  • correct information that’s wrong or out of date;
  • delete a quote request, message or Careers submission, where we’re not required to keep it;
  • stop contacting you, except as needed to service an active policy.

To make a request, call 508-925-5267 or email office@catalystinsuranceagency.com. We may need to confirm your identity before acting on it. For information an insurance company holds, we’ll help you contact that company directly.

Children

Our website is meant for adults. We don’t knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we’ll delete it.

Links to other websites

Our site links to other websites, such as insurance companies, Google reviews and our social media pages. We’re not responsible for their privacy practices, so please review their policies when you visit.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed. If we make a significant change in how we use or share personal information, we’ll post a notice on our website.
