Privacy
The Privacy Act 1988 requires us to tell you that we as broke and the insurer collect your personal and sensitive information in order to calculate your loss and entitlements, determine the insurer’s liability, compile data and handle claims. When handling claims we and the insurer may have to disclose your personal and other information to third parties such as other insurers, reinsurers, loss adjusters, external claims data collectors, investigators and agents, or other parties as required by law. Where you give us information about other persons you must have their consent to this and provide it on their behalf. If not, you must tell us. You have the right to seek access to your personal information and to correct it at any time. Please contact us to advise if any changes are required.
Internal Dispute Resolution (IDR) Statement
Disputes are not an everyday occurrence. However insurers provide an internal dispute resolution process should any dispute arise. Please feel free to ask for details. If you are not satisfied with the outcome of that process, we will advise you how to contact the insurance industry’s external independent complaints scheme (subject to eligibility).
