Use of This Website

ICMAUTO is a comprehensive Web site which allows ICM Insurance Company and its affiliates (collectively, “ICM”) to support and communicate with our agents electronically by providing access to policyholder information (limited to your book of business), agent records (including commission statements), relevant technology, as well as the most current information and news to assist you in your business. You agree not to disrupt, modify or interfere with ICMAUTO, or impede or interfere with others’ use of ICMAUTO, or its associated software, hardware and servers in any way. You further agree not to alter or tamper with any information on or associated with ICMAUTO. You agree that this site and the content provided in this site, including the text, graphics, button icons, and data compilations, may not be copied, reproduced, republished, uploaded, posted, transmitted or distributed without the written permission of ICM, except that you may display and print the materials presented on this site for the specific business purpose set forth herein.

 

Agents and Brokers

In some states, brokers, rather than independent agents, offer ICM’s insurance products to customers. Although there are important legal distinctions between agents and brokers, for readability purposes this website uses "agent" to refer to both. While the relationship between brokers and ICM differs from ICM's relationship with its independent agents, including the fact that brokers do not have binding authority, many of the same or similar tools and services on ICMAUTO are available to them. If you have any questions about the products and services described on this web site or their availability to brokers, please contact an ICM Agency Licensing representative.

Agent Code/Password

ICMAUTO is a restricted use site, requiring the use of an Agent Code and Password for access. Unauthorized use of or access to any restricted area is strictly prohibited. Actual or attempted unauthorized use of or access to such areas may result in criminal and/or civil prosecution. Attempts to access such areas without proper authorization may be viewed, monitored and recorded and any information obtained may be given to law enforcement agencies in connection with any investigation or prosecution of possible criminal and/or unlawful activity on this system. If you are not an authorized user of such areas or do not consent to continued monitoring, you should not attempt to access such areas.

 

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Agent Code and Password. You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your Agent Code and Password. ICM is not liable for any unauthorized access to your personal information that is not the direct result of gross negligence on the part of ICM. You will notify ICM immediately if you believe someone else has obtained your Password or any unauthorized access under your Agent Code has occurred or may occur. ICM may block access to your Agent Code without prior notice if we believe your Agent Code is being used by someone other than you, if any unauthorized access to your personal information has occurred or may occur, or for other reasons, including, without limitation, system upgrades and/or modifications.
