This paragraph does not prohibit an insurer from retaining an independent third party to conduct a customer feedback effort intended to help the insurer improve the quality of its products or services and to offer an insured business or individual a reasonable incentive to participate in the feedback effort. An incentive is presumed reasonable if it does not exceed $200. An insurer may not offer, reference or promote an incentive or feedback effort under this paragraph in connection with an application for or renewal of insurance coverage. For the purposes of this paragraph, "feedback effort" means activities that are designed to elicit customer perceptions on a predetermined set of topics that are related to the insurer's products or services, including in-person, telephonic or online surveys, polls, focus groups, interviews, questionnaires and other recognized opinion-gathering mechanisms.
B. An insurer, insurance producer or other person may offer or provide products or services that are ancillary or related to any insurance coverage and that are intended to minimize or prevent claims-related losses or expenses or harm to the public, including fire or smoke detectors, risk audits or assessments and products or services to deter injury, death or property theft or damage. The products and services that may be offered or provided in this subsection are exempt from the prohibitions set forth in subsection A of this section.
