Duty to Give Information. 11.1. (Consumers) It is your duty to take reasonable care not to make any incorrect or misleading statements when answering any questions from us or the insurer prior to entering into the insurance policy or when varying an insurance policy. If you do not understand the meaning of any question, or if you do not know the answer, it is important that you tell us or your insurer. Where we provide you with an insurance quote at renewal which is based upon information that you previously provided to us, you should review this information to ensure that it is still accurate and to check whether your circumstances have changed. Any failure to take reasonable care when answering any questions from the insurer or us on the insurer’s behalf, prior to entering into the insurance policy may invalidate your insurance cover or may result in your insurance cover being reduced. Where you provide us with information over the phone and a member of our team completes the proposal form or statement of fact, you are responsible for checking any written summary of this information that you are sent. You must let us know immediately of any errors or omissions.
