Insured's Disclosure Requirements
The duty of disclosure is an important legal requirement that applies to insurance.
When you apply for insurance you have a legal duty of disclosure. Before we can consider providing cover, you must disclose to us everything known to you which is relevant to:
our decision to insure your animal/s
(b) the terms on which we insure you.
The duty of diclosure also applies when you seek to enter into, renew, change or reinstate a policy.
The information you may need to disclose includes:
any change in the animals use or activities.
any change in the animal’s health or injuries suffered.
any criminal offence.
any cancellation, refusal to renew insurance, or imposing of special terms by another insurance company.
any insurance claims you have made in the past.
If you do not make this disclosure the Insurer may:
refuse or reduce a claim.
cancel the Cover.
in some cases, treat the Cover as having never operated.
IF IN DOUBT it is better to give us the information rather than take the risk of failing in your duty of disclosure.
DUE DILIGENCE is expected of you as the Insured. You must act with care.
