That part certainly can include insurance companies.



Edit: A quick search and I found this from Oct 2010...http://demo.wardsauto.com/ward039s-auto-world/onstar-studying-marketing-opportunities-data-collection

"OnStar has been approached by companies, including insurance firms, seeking to make use of the data the company has accumulated in its 14 years of operation."

- OnStar Inc. President Chris Preuss



Hey, at least now they can use the slogan...


'It's not called [ON]Star for nothin'!'



Edit: Disclosure, I have OnStar's 'safe and sound', and plan on keeping it... I'll 'live' with it.
I stand completely corrected!! I don't think the share+care relationship is quite there, yet however...wouldn't you agree? "Being approached" versus "we're sharing with...".
