Do customers of group policies receive the privacy notice?
A large number of Unum’s group policies are issued to employers, who are the legal owners of the policy. Unum is required to provide the privacy notice to the policy owner, so the employer, or the organization to which the group policy was issued, receives a copy of the privacy notice. Insureds or participants (certificate holders) covered under a group policy do not receive privacy notices individually. However, any individual may obtain a copy of Unum’s privacy notice in several ways: (1) by requesting a copy from their employer, or the organization to whom the group policy was issued, or (2) by visiting www.unum.com.
