Dispute Resolution

If a dispute arises between you and any of the Sentry Parties, it is the goal of Sentry to work in good faith with you to quickly and amicably resolve the dispute. All disputes, claims, or controversies (“Claims”) arising under or relating to these Terms, the Site, or the Services that cannot be resolved informally, will be finally resolved by binding arbitration as described herein.

Any dispute arising under or related to these Terms, the Site, or the Services (including the arbitrability of such a dispute and the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, termination or breach thereof) shall be finally settled by binding arbitration by a single arbitrator in accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), with the arbitration to be commenced no later than one (1) year after such Claim accrues. If you fail to commence binding arbitration within one year after such Claim accrues, it shall be deemed forever waived. A judgment upon an arbitrator’s award may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall be an expert in the field of Internet services. To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that there shall be no class action arbitration related to these Terms, the Site, or the Services. All parties shall bear their own expenses, except that the parties shall equally share the expenses of the arbitrator (except for the required non-refundable filing fees which shall be paid solely by the party asserting the related Claim).

The above obligations to arbitrate shall not: (i) apply to violations of the Restrictions on Use of Sentry Materials contained above; or (ii) prevent a party from seeking a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, specific performance or other procedures in a court of competent jurisdiction to obtain interim relief when deemed necessary by such court to preserve the status quo or prevent irreparable injury pending resolution by arbitration of the actual dispute.

Exclusive jurisdiction and venue for arbitration or any other legal action or proceeding in any way related to the Site, the Services, or these Terms shall be in Wisconsin. Any matter brought before a court shall be brought solely in the state or federal courts located in Wisconsin. The parties hereby waive their right to a jury trial.

  • At this time, we cannot accept questions or policy changes via text; those should continue to be handled by accessing your account or by contacting us at 1-800-280-1466.
  • Alerts sent via SMS (texting service) may not be delivered to you if your phone is not in range of a transmission site, or if sufficient network capacity is not available at a particular time. Even within a coverage area, factors beyond the control of your wireless carrier may interfere with message delivery, including the customer's equipment, terrain, proximity to buildings, foliage, and weather. You acknowledge that urgent alerts may not be received timely and that your wireless carrier does not guarantee that alerts will be delivered. Likewise, we cannot guarantee timeliness or delivery and we are not liable for losses or damages arising from non-delivery, delayed delivery, or misdirected delivery of a text message.
  • Text messages to us can never be used to contact 911 or other emergency services.
  • SMS text message notifications may be delayed or not received during regional emergencies or other periods of high messaging traffic.
  • Third parties can send SMS text messages disguised as alerts from The General® and therefore you are urged to verify independently the authenticity of any message that you receive.
  • SMS text message notifications from us will be presented on your mobile device in the same manner as any other SMS text messages. You accept that each text message may not be encrypted, and may contain information about your policy.
  • We will send text messages using automated technology. If your mobile number is disconnected or transferred to a different mobile carrier, you must complete the consent process at The General® for your new mobile phone number.
  • The General® is working with AT&T, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile®, Metro PCS, Sprint, Boost, Virgin Mobile, U.S. ®, and others. Customers who use a different carrier should contact their mobile carrier to determine if this service is available and the cost associated with texting.
  • The mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
  • Because many phone companies recycle phone numbers, it is possible for customers who purchase a new phone to receive messages that the previous owner had subscribed to or otherwise consented to receive. The General® will periodically purge phone numbers that have been reassigned or discontinued after being notified by the phone companies of discontinued/recycled phone numbers.
  • Customers are not required to provide consent to receive text messages as a condition of purchasing any goods or services.
  • By consenting to receive text messages from The General®, the customer is stating that they are over the age of 13 years and that they wish to receive text communications from The General®. Consent can be given via email, web site form, text message, telephone key press or voice recording.
  • We reserve the right to terminate this text messaging service, in whole or in part, at any time without notice.

Usage-Based Insurance Programs

Sentry offers several usage-based insurance programs that use certain data to adjust insurance premiums, including The General Safe Driver Discount Program and MyDrive Safe Driver Program (collectively “Programs”). The programs are administered by Cambridge Mobile Telematics, Inc. ("Administrator") on behalf of Sentry through a downloadable smartphone application, also known as the 'app'. This document contains important information about your rights, obligations, benefits, and limitations when participating in a Program. You should read it carefully before deciding to participate.

Your participation in a Program is expressly conditioned upon your acceptance of these Terms & Conditions. We may modify the Terms & Conditions or discontinue the Program without notice at any time at our discretion. Your continued participation in a Program is your acceptance of these Terms & Conditions along with any such changes. Any and all terms defined in this Usage-Based Insurance Programs Section will only apply to this Usage-Based Insurance Programs Section itself, and nowhere else in the broader terms and conditions published here. In the event of any conflicting terms between this Usage-Based Insurance Programs Section and any terms or conditions of the broader Terms and Conditions published here, the terms of this Usage-Based Insurance Programs Section will supersede and control only with respect to the Programs.

Programs Overview: Your participation in a Program allows Sentry to collect information about your driving behavior as captured by the app on your smartphone. By participating, your policy may qualify for a discount or rating adjustment which will impact your policy premium. If you are a participant of the MyDrive Safe Driver Program, you will be able to access your driving information through the app which may help you understand your driving behaviors and possibly become a safer driver.

Eligibility & Additional Provisions: The following are necessary to participate in The General Safe Driver Discount Program:

  • The named insured listed on The General auto insurance policy must have previously satisfied the enrollment and app usage requirements.
  • The General has discontinued offering new enrollments and support for the app in this Program.

The following are necessary to participate in the MyDrive Safe Driver Program:

  • The General auto insurance policy must be active and the named insured listed on the policy must agree to participate in the Program.
  • Once the named insured has enrolled in the program other active drivers on the policy can also enroll.
  • The program is not available to drivers that are excluded from, or not rated on, the policy.
  • You must download the app to your smartphone and begin using it within 28 days of enrollment or you will be unenrolled from the program.
  • The named insured’s enrollment must be completed using the same phone number in the app as was used when purchasing The General auto insurance policy to receive the discount or rating adjustment.
  • You must agree to these Terms & Conditions.
  • By enrolling in the Program, you agree to receive emails and automated text messages concerning the Program and/or the smartphone app to the mobile number you provided when registering the app. By providing your mobile number and/or mobile numbers for other active drivers on the policy, you are acknowledging that you have full authority to provide us with those numbers.
  • Your agreement to receive emails and automated text messages concerning the Program and/or the smartphone app is a condition for your continued enrollment in the Program.
  • You must have a compatible smartphone with an adequate data and service plan.
  • You must agree to the Mobile App License Agreement. The Mobile App License Agreement will be made available when the smartphone app is downloaded. The Mobile App License Agreement may place additional responsibilities on you and/or limit your rights against Sentry or the Administrator.
  • After you download the app to your smartphone and begin using it, you must continue to transmit information through the app using the phone number you provided when registering the app. Failure to transmit information through the app for any period totaling 28 consecutive days from your last transmission of information will result in your unenrollment from the Program.
  • If the named insured unenrolls or is unenrolled from the Program, then all other enrolled drivers will also be unenrolled and the discount or rating adjustment will be removed from the policy.
  • At the named insured’s request, you may be re-enrolled once per policy term; however, we reserve the right to deny re-enrollment if there was non-compliance with these Terms & Conditions or if we believe, in our sole discretion, that fraudulent behavior or other illegal or unethical conduct has occurred in any way that compromises the fairness of the Program.
  • The app must be installed with phone permissions set to allow the app to work properly.

How the Programs Work: Once you have downloaded the app, registered your account and it is in use, the app collects your driving data. This data is securely stored within the Administrator’s systems and securely transmitted to Sentry for analysis.

The app uses your smartphone data plan or an available Wi-Fi network to upload information to the Administrator's data storage system. The amount of data used by the app will fluctuate based on how often and how far you drive. It is your responsibility to maintain a data plan sufficient to allow for this usage. Sentry and the Administrator are not responsible for any data charges (including overage charges) associated with the use of the app. It is also your responsibility to protect your smartphone and smartphone app username and password from unauthorized parties.

Premium Impact:
The following applies to The General Safe Driver Discount Program:

Sentry is no longer accepting new enrollments or supporting the app for this Program. However, previously qualified policies may continue to receive the enrollment discount at policy renewal, subject to our filed and approved rating factors, variables, rules, and rating regulations in the state where the auto policy is issued.

The following applies to the MyDrive Safe Driver Program:

Subject to our rate and rule filings with the Department of Insurance and the laws in the state where the auto policy is issued, the policy may receive an initial premium discount for participation in the Program. The initial premium discount will apply during the policy term of your initial enrollment in the Program. After enrolling, you must transmit driving data for 5 valid trips within the first 91 days of registering the MyDrive app (“initial app usage requirement”) and satisfy the other app usage requirements under these terms and conditions. A driving score will be assigned based on an assessment of your driving data.

Once you satisfy the initial app usage requirement, the policy will be eligible for a rating adjustment at renewal that will replace the initial premium discount, subject to our filed and approved rating factors, variables, rules, and rating regulations in the state where the auto policy is issued. After satisfaction of the initial app usage requirement, you must continue to transmit driving data, which will further update your driving score. Your most recent driving score will be evaluated to make the rating adjustment at each renewal of your policy. The rating adjustment is determined based on an average of the driving scores for each active driver on the policy. An active driver on the policy that does not enroll in the Program or satisfy the app usage requirements will receive a default driving score. If an active driver other than the named insured unenrolls or is unenrolled from the Program by The General, the rating adjustment applied to the policy could change.

Should no enrolled driver satisfy the initial app usage requirement in time for a score to be calculated, the initial premium discount will continue to apply when calculating the ensuing renewal premium and the initial app usage requirement will be assessed again during that renewal term. The failure to meet the initial app usage requirement will only be allowed in the initial term of enrollment.

Any removal of the discount or rating adjustment and/or increase in your policy premium under these terms and conditions may be effected by us during the term of your auto policy and will be considered the result of a change to your policy initiated at your request.

The Smartphone Application or App: You acknowledge and agree that the rights in the software comprising the smartphone app remain either with Sentry or the Administrator (as applicable) and that you have no rights to the smartphone app. Sentry hereby grants participants of the MyDrive Safe Driver Program a non-exclusive, limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to install and use the smartphone app as specified herein, if Sentry owns or has the right to license the smartphone app, otherwise the license will be granted by the Administrator under its terms and conditions. If at any time you terminate your participation in the Program or otherwise violate these Terms & Conditions, your rights will automatically terminate.

You have no right to and will not allow others to (a) reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile or otherwise attempt to derive, discover or reconstruct the smartphone app; (b) remove, alter, cover or obfuscate any proprietary rights notices placed or embedded by Sentry or the Administrator on the smartphone app; or (c) alter, modify, adapt or create derivative works of the smartphone app.

You agree that Sentry is not liable for software malfunctions or unexplained issues involving the smartphone before or after the app is used including, but not limited to, smartphone battery depletion, or other issues. These Terms & Conditions do not give you any rights against Sentry as a result of any smartphone or vehicle issues.

Data Collection and Use: These terms and conditions, together with our privacy policy, Mobile App License Agreement, and any other documents referred to therein, set out the basis on which we collect data from you, or which you provide, when using the app. The app will capture driving data such as geo-positional data and accelerometer data for Sentry's analysis and future research. The Administrator will also use aggregated and anonymized data collected or generated by the app for purposes of the Administrator’s product, service and technological development. The data received from the app will be used to determine when participation in the Program begins. Sentry will gather detailed driving data, including but not limited to: accelerations, speed, braking, hours driven, and time of day driven. By participating in the Program, you acknowledge Sentry's and the Administrator’s right to use the data and information as described in these Terms & Conditions and agree: (1) to allow Sentry and the Administrator to access, use, and retain your information and data captured by the app; (2) that Sentry and the Administrator may retain the collected data indefinitely (subject to applicable law); and (3) Sentry and the Administrator have the right to start collecting data as soon as the app is installed and to continue collecting data for as long as the app is in use (which, due to processing times, may include any data collected after the effective date of your removal or withdrawal from the program, but prior to your uninstallation of, or our termination of access to, the app).

Privacy: Sentry recognizes the importance of our customers' trust. Keeping our customers’ personal information confidential is a top priority for all of Sentry employees, agents, and staff. Our privacy policy can be viewed at https://www.thegeneral.com/legal/privacy-policy/.

However, the collected data may be deemed discoverable for an accident investigation or for litigation purposes. Therefore, Sentry and/or you may be legally required to provide the data to others. Other than the above-mentioned purposes, Sentry will not disclose or use data obtained from the app to evaluate or resolve claims without your consent.

All enrolled drivers may have access within the app to the driving performance for other enrolled drivers that have consented to sharing their driving data for this purpose.

Term and Termination: These Terms & Conditions are effective upon enrollment and terminate on the earliest of your request to withdraw from the Program, your removal from the Program by Sentry, or upon our termination of the Program. However, those terms which by their nature or operation are expected to extend beyond the termination of these Terms & Conditions shall survive the termination of these Terms & Conditions to the full extent necessary for their enforcement and for the protection of the party in whose favor they operate. If you stop participating in the Program for any reason, including if the Program is discontinued, the Program discount or rating adjustment may no longer apply and the policyholder will not be entitled to any reimbursement or other compensation. To stop participating in the Program and discontinue the collection of your driving data, simply uninstall the app.

Participation in the Program is voluntary and you may withdraw from participation at any time. However, the auto policy may be restricted from re-enrolling and qualifying for the Program discount or rating adjustment depending on underwriting restrictions. Sentry may, in its sole discretion, immediately terminate the auto policy’s participation in the Program if Sentry determines that you are not complying with these Terms & Conditions, or if it believes, in its sole discretion, that fraudulent behavior or other illegal or unethical conduct has occurred in any way that compromises the fairness the Program. Further, non-compliance with these Terms & Conditions or discontinued participation may result in the loss of any applicable discount or rating adjustment and the Policyholder may lose eligibility to re-enroll in the Program in the future.

Disclaimers and Limitations: If these Terms & Conditions conflict with laws of the state for which the auto policy is issued, the terms will change to conform to those laws. Any disputes to the Terms and Conditions provided will be governed by the laws of the state shown in the declarations of the auto insurance policy.

Sentry does not guarantee that the app and the use thereof will prevent high-risk events, unsafe driving, collisions or that other events will be prevented as a result of your enrollment in The General Safe Driver Discount Program or MyDrive Safe Driver Program. Sentry also does not guarantee that all high-risk events, collisions, unsafe driving, or other events will be recorded. Sentry does not guarantee against the failure of the app, the recording of incorrect data, or guarantee full-time availability of the app or access to the data. Your service and access to the app may be temporarily suspended or permanently terminated at any time for any reason.
