Our Products and Services
Iceni International Limited do not make a personal recommendation as to whether the plan offered is suitable for you. This is your responsibility, after reading the pre-sale information provided.
Disclosure
You must take reasonable care to answer all questions put to you about your proposed insurance fully, honestly and to the best of your knowledge. If you do not understand the meaning of any question, or if you do not know the answer, it is vital that you tell us. Once cover has been arranged, you must immediately notify us or your insurer of any changes to the information that has been previously provided. The most serious consequence of failing to provide full and accurate information before you take out insurance, or when your circumstances change, could be the invalidation of your cover. In that instance it would mean that a claim will be rejected.
If a policy is purchased, or a form or declaration is completed on your behalf, it is your responsibility to check that the answers given to all questions are true and complete.
Confidentiality
All information provided by our customers is treated as confidential and only disclosed in the normal course of negotiating, arranging and administering your insurance. This may include disclosing information to agents and service providers. We will not release information to any other party without your consent with a few exceptions, for example information requested by a court, a regulatory body, or information which is already in the public domain. We are registered under the Data Protection Act 1998 and undertake to comply with the Act in all our dealings with personal data.
Documentation
Our aim is to produce documentation and correspondence in a clear and understandable format. In the event of any uncertainty we would ask you to let us know immediately. Our staff are always happy to clarify the cover provided.
