When must a life insurance producer provide a disclosure notice about information practices to an applicant?

A life insurance producer must provide a disclosure notice about information practices to an applicant prior to or at the time of signing the application. This requirement is mandated to ensure that applicants are fully informed about how their personal information will be used and disclosed during the underwriting process. The disclosure notice serves to protect the applicant's privacy rights and fosters transparency in the insurance application process.

By providing this notice before the application is signed, the producer allows applicants to understand their rights regarding the handling of their personal information. This practice aligns with regulatory expectations aimed at safeguarding consumers and enables applicants to make informed decisions about their privacy and the information they choose to share with the insurer.
