It will be visible only to you. Our inquiry will not affect your credit score or credit rating. If you commit to purchase a policy with UEG, we will also confirm your motor vehicle record and claims history. As permitted by law, we may also review your motor vehicle record, claims history, and/or credit information in connection with any renewal.

We may also disclose it to persons or organizations as necessary to perform transactions you request or authorize.
