Verisk built 'Driving Behavior Data History Reports' for auto insurers from driving data supplied by General Motors, Honda and Hyundai vehicles. Verisk told Privacy4Cars it 'no longer receives this data from these automakers' and stopped selling those reports in 2024. That came after reporting that GM drivers' insurance premiums were being affected by data they did not know was shared. Shutting down the product did not end the legal exposure. In April 2026 the driving-data MDL in N.D. Ga. let FCRA claims against Verisk proceed, so the core question is still open: whether Verisk acted as a consumer reporting agency for driving behavior without FCRA's accuracy, notice and dispute protections.

Data sharing
DRIVING DATA: Verisk received driving data from GM, Honda and Hyundai vehicles to generate reports for insurers, and stopped by mid-2024 (per Verisk's statement to Privacy4Cars, reported by The Record). Verisk's State Data Privacy Notice (last updated Aug. 2025) says 'We do not sell or share consumers' personal information collected via Verisk.com', but that statement covers only website data, not insurance or claims databases. No consumer-facing notice for its insurance or driving datasets was located this pass.
Fees and billing
