YOUR DUTY OF DISCLOSURE
Before you enter into a Contract of general insurance with an Insurer, you have a duty under the Insurance Contracts Act 1984 to disclose to the Insurer every matter that you know, or could reasonably expect to know, is relevant to the Insurer’s decision whether to accept the risk of insurance and if so, on what terms. You have the same duty to disclose those matters to the Insurer before you renew, extend, vary or reinstate a Contract of general insurance. Your duty however does not require disclosure of matter, that diminishes the risk to be undertaken by the Insurer, that is common knowledge, that your Insurer knows or, in the ordinary course of business, ought to know as to which the compliance with your duty is waived by the Insurer.
NON-DISCLOSURE
If you fail to comply with your duty of disclosure, the Insurer may be entitled to reduce the liability under the Contract in respect of a claim or may cancel the Contract. If your non-disclosure is fraudulent, the Insurer may also have the option of avoiding the Contract from its beginning. If you are not fully satisfied with our services, you should contact our customer relations/complaints officer.

Average Clause – Underinsurance
Personal insurance (e.g. home and contents policies), and Business insurance (e.g. fire, business interruption, industrial special risks) often contain an average clause. Such clauses enable the insurer to reduce your claim settlement in proportion to the amount of any underinsurance. Therefore, you should always insure for full value, which may be replacement, indemnity or market value depending on the type of cover arranged.
Changes to your Risk and Change of your Circumstances
Advise us immediately of any changes to the risk covered or your circumstances. Some examples of such changes are: change of location, risk, activity, insured names, values to be insured, installation or removal of smoke or burglar alarms and the like.
Claims
To ensure any entitlement under your policy is protected, you must report all incidents that may give rise to a claim against you to the Insurers without delay after such incidents come to your attention and prior to the expiration of the policy period. Your attention is also drawn to the fact that your policies do not provide indemnity in respect of events that occurred PRIOR to commencement of the insurance contract. Cooling Off Period
This product is subject to a Cooling Off Period which means you are entitled to a minimum 14 day cooling off period during which time you may return the policy and receive a premium refund. We will return the commission to the Insurer, however we reserve the right to retain our fees. The cooling off period is subject to legal requirements and terms and conditions of the policy. You should check the relevant Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for full details.
Insured Name and Interests of Other Parties
Always ensure you advise us of every interested entity so that each can be properly advised to the insurer and noted as insured and/or for their respective rights and interests. Most policies will exclude indemnity to parties unless their interest is noted on the policy.
Leasing, Hiring and Borrowing Property
When you lease, hire or borrow property, make sure that the contract clearly identifies who is responsible to insure the property. This will help avoid arguments after a loss and ensure that any claims are efficiently processed.
Premium Funding Non Payment
In the event you fail to fulfil the requirements of a funding contract, the premium funder has full power of attorney over your policy(ies). The funder can request the Insurer to cancel your policy(ies) and the funder has the right to any refund of premium. In this instance we are obliged to act on the instructions of the Funder.
PDS/Product Disclosure Statement
The PDS will be provided to you (or will be passed to you as soon as it is received from the Insurer). It is in your best interests to read this document without delay and advise us of any aspects which are not clear to you or where any aspect of the cover does not meet with your requirements.
Privacy
We are committed to protecting your privacy. We use the information you provide to advise about and assist with your insurance needs. We provide your information to insurance companies and agents that provide insurance quotes and offer insurance terms to you or the companies that deal with your insurance claim (such as loss assessors and claims administrators). Your information may be given to an overseas insurer (like Lloyd’s of London) if we are seeking insurance terms from an overseas insurer, or to reinsurers who are located overseas. We will try to tell you where those companies are located at the time of advising you. We also provide your information to the providers of our policy administration and broking systems that help us to provide our products and services to you. We do not trade, rent or sell your information. If you don’t provide us with full information, we can’t properly advise you, seek insurance terms for you, or assist with claims and you could breach your duty of disclosure.
For more information about how to access the personal information we hold about you and how to have the information corrected and how to complain if you think we have breached the privacy laws, ask us for a copy of our Privacy Policy or visit our website for more details.
Underwriting Agency or other Financial Services Provider
If you instruct us to place your insurance with an Underwriting Agency or another Financial Services Provider, you are entitled to receive a Financial Services Guide (FSG) as issued by that provider. This can be provided to you on request.
Utmost Good Faith
Every contract of insurance is subject to the doctrine of utmost good faith which requires that the parties to the contract should act toward each other with the utmost good faith. Failure to do so on your part may prejudice any claim or the continuation of cover provided by Insurers.

(Re)Insurer’s liability several not joint
In any instances where there is more than one insurer subscribing to this contract of insurance, the liability of a (re)insurer under this contract is several and not joint with other (re)insurers party to this contract. A (re)insurer is liable only for the proportion of liability it has underwritten. A (re)insurer is not jointly liable for the proportion of liability underwritten by any other (re)insurer. Nor is a (re)insurer otherwise responsible for any liability of any other (re)insurer that may underwrite this contract.
The proportion of liability under this contract underwritten by a (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together) is detailed on this schedule. This is subject always to the provision concerning “signing” below.
In the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, each member of the syndicate (rather than the syndicate itself) is a (re)insurer. Each member has underwritten a proportion of the total shown for the syndicate (that total itself being the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together). The liability of each member of the syndicate is several and not joint with other members. A member is liable only for that member’s proportion. A member is not jointly liable for any other member’s proportion. Nor is any member otherwise responsible for any liability of any other (re)insurer that may underwrite this contract. The business address of each member is Lloyd’s, One Lime Street, London EC3M 7HA. The identity of each member of a

Lloyd’s syndicate and their respective proportion may be obtained by writing to Market Services, Lloyd’s, at the above address.
Proportion of liability Unless there is “signing” (see below), the proportion of liability under this contract underwritten by each (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together) is detailed on this schedule and is referred to as its “written line”.
Where this contract permits, written lines, or certain written lines, may be adjusted (“signed”). In that case a schedule is to be appended to this contract to show the definitive proportion of liability under this contract underwritten by each (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together). A definitive proportion (or, in the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of a Lloyd’s syndicate taken together) is referred to as a “signed line”. The signed lines shown in the schedule will prevail over the written lines unless a proven error in calculation has occurred.
Although reference is made at various points in this clause to “this contract” in the singular, where the circumstances so require this should be read as a reference to contracts in the plural.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Please read this information carefully and contact us immediately if you have any queries.
YOUR DUTY OF DISCLOSURE
Before you enter into a Contract of general insurance with an Insurer, you have a duty under the Insurance Contracts Act 1984 to disclose to the Insurer every matter that you know, or could reasonably expect to know, is relevant to the Insurer’s decision whether to accept the risk of insurance and if so, on what terms. You have the same duty to disclose those matters to the Insurer before you renew, extend, vary or reinstate a Contract of general insurance. Your duty however does not require disclosure of matter, that diminishes the risk to be undertaken by the Insurer, that is common knowledge, that your Insurer knows or, in the ordinary course of business, ought to know as to which the compliance with your duty is waived by the Insurer.
NON-DISCLOSURE
If you fail to comply with your duty of disclosure, the Insurer may be entitled to reduce the liability under the Contract in respect of a claim or may cancel the Contract. If your non-disclosure is fraudulent, the Insurer may also have the option of avoiding the Contract from its beginning. If you are not fully satisfied with our services, you should contact our customer relations/complaints officer.
YOUR INSURANCE BROKER PTY LTD
We also subscribe to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA), which is a free customer service and the General Insurance Brokers Code of Practice. Further information is available from this office or contact the AFCA on 1800 931 678 or go to www.afca.org.au
Average Clause – Underinsurance
Personal insurance (e.g. home and contents policies), and Business insurance (e.g. fire, business interruption, industrial special risks) often contain an average clause. Such clauses enable the insurer to reduce your claim settlement in proportion to the amount of any underinsurance. Therefore, you should always insure for full value, which may be replacement, indemnity or market value depending on the type of cover arranged.
Changes to your Risk and Change of your Circumstances
Advise us immediately of any changes to the risk covered or your circumstances. Some examples of such changes are: change of location, risk, activity, insured names, values to be insured, installation or removal of smoke or burglar alarms and the like.
Claims
To ensure any entitlement under your policy is protected, you must report all incidents that may give rise to a claim against you to the Insurers without delay after such incidents come to your attention and prior to the expiration of the policy period. Your attention is also drawn to the fact that your policies do not provide indemnity in respect of events that occurred PRIOR to commencement of the insurance contract. Cooling Off Period
This product is subject to a Cooling Off Period which means you are entitled to a minimum 14 day cooling off period during which time you may return the policy and receive a premium refund. We will return the commission to the Insurer, however we reserve the right to retain our fees. The cooling off period is subject to legal requirements and terms and conditions of the policy. You should check the relevant Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for full details.
Insured Name and Interests of Other Parties
Always ensure you advise us of every interested entity so that each can be properly advised to the insurer and noted as insured and/or for their respective rights and interests. Most policies will exclude indemnity to parties unless their interest is noted on the policy.
Leasing, Hiring and Borrowing Property
When you lease, hire or borrow property, make sure that the contract clearly identifies who is responsible to insure the property. This will help avoid arguments after a loss and ensure that any claims are efficiently processed.
Premium Funding Non Payment
In the event you fail to fulfil the requirements of a funding contract, the premium funder has full power of attorney over your policy(ies). The funder can request the Insurer to cancel your policy(ies) and the funder has the right to any refund of premium. In this instance we are obliged to act on the instructions of the Funder.
PDS/Product Disclosure Statement
The PDS will be provided to you (or will be passed to you as soon as it is received from the Insurer). It is in your best interests to read this document without delay and advise us of any aspects which are not clear to you or where any aspect of the cover does not meet with your requirements.
Privacy
We are committed to protecting your privacy. We use the information you provide to advise about and assist with your insurance needs. We provide your information to insurance companies and agents that provide insurance quotes and offer insurance terms to you or the companies that deal with your insurance claim (such as loss assessors and claims administrators). Your information may be given to an overseas insurer (like Lloyd’s of London) if we are seeking insurance terms from an overseas insurer, or to reinsurers who are located overseas. We will try to tell you where those companies are located at the time of advising you. We also provide your information to the providers of our policy administration and broking systems that help us to provide our products and services to you. We do not trade, rent or sell your information. If you don’t provide us with full information, we can’t properly advise you, seek insurance terms for you, or assist with claims and you could breach your duty of disclosure.
For more information about how to access the personal information we hold about you and how to have the information corrected and how to complain if you think we have breached the privacy laws, ask us for a copy of our Privacy Policy or visit our website for more details.
Underwriting Agency or other Financial Services Provider
If you instruct us to place your insurance with an Underwriting Agency or another Financial Services Provider, you are entitled to receive a Financial Services Guide (FSG) as issued by that provider. This can be provided to you on request.
Utmost Good Faith
Every contract of insurance is subject to the doctrine of utmost good faith which requires that the parties to the contract should act toward each other with the utmost good faith. Failure to do so on your part may prejudice any claim or the continuation of cover provided by Insurers.
