Is data collected for the purpose of offering a commercial insurance policy, which doesn’t include any personal information, covered by the Act?
A. No. However, the provision of a commercial insurance policy that requires handling any information about an identifiable individual is subject to the Act. For example, providing a commercial insurance policy for a fleet of vehicles requires handling the personal information of the drivers of those vehicles (e.g. their license and driving record information), and is thus subject to the Act.
