In light of this, please respond to this email within 2 business days to notify IFG Sales Integrity if you currently work with Media Alpha and/or QuoteLab, or plan to do so, and provide details of the services and/or materials involved.

Please also remember:

• You are responsible for ensuring that all leads you purchase are compliant with applicable regulations.

• All marketing materials must be submitted to IFG and our carrier partners for review and filing.
