Ethical Profile

Mixed.

EverQuote, Inc. receives a mixed ethical rating. The company demonstrates a commitment to honest business practices, with a robust code of conduct, a whistleblower policy protecting against retaliation, and explicit prohibitions against bribery. Notably, EverQuote has incurred no regulatory fines in the past three years and promptly self-reports minor breaches. In technology, it maintains industry-standard cybersecurity, including external penetration testing and compliance with major privacy laws like CCPA and CPRA. However, critics point to a lack of comprehensive data on areas like environmental impact, with no public carbon emissions targets, and limited quantitative information on overall pay equity, despite reports of a mean gender pay gap below 10%. The company also exited its health insurance vertical in June 2023.
