• Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
• Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it.

• Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
• Request restriction of processing your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

9. Data Transfers to Third Countries

The data we collect from you may, on occasion, be stored and/or processed at a destination outside the European Economic Area (EEA). It may also be processed by organisations operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers. These organisations may be engaged in the fulfilment of your request, order or reservation, and the provision of support services.

Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.

Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US.

We will take steps reasonably necessary to ensure there is an adequate level of protection of your data and that your data is treated securely and in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Do You Need Mortgage Insurance?

Mortgage life insurance – also referred to as mortgage protection – is a type of life insurance that pays out if you die before you finish paying your mortgage, ensuring that your spouse and dependants don’t need to worry about the monthly repayments.

It can be called mortgage life insurance or assurance. You insure something that MAY happen, while you assure something that WILL happen. Death is of course assured, but as the question is “will you die before your mortgage is paid off?” many call it insurance, and here’s what you need to know.

There are two types of life insurance that you can get to cover your mortgage. Decreasing term life cover is the most common type and pays out what’s left to pay on your mortgage. You can also take out level term, which pays out a set lump sum if you die within a fixed term – this can be used to pay off an interest-only mortgage.

Decreasing term life insurance is the cheapest form of life insurance. As time passes, and your mortgage debt reduces, the payout on death also reduces leaving your dependants with the money to pay the rest of the mortgage.

Life Insurance With Critical Illness

You pay monthly premiums for the policy term, from 5 to 50 years, and if you’re diagnosed with one of the 53 conditions we cover during that time, we’ll pay out. Our policy also includes a children’s benefit that covers any children you have at no extra cost.

ou can’t know what’s around the corner for your health, but you can make sure you’re prepared financially.

Do you need critical illness cover?

Think about expenses you’d need to cover if you were critically ill and couldn’t work. It might be monthly outgoings like rent payments and general bills, or instalments on a loan or a repayment mortgage. If you don’t have savings to fall back on, getting cover can help take financial worry away while you’re recovering or having treatment.

Are you eligible for critical illness cover?

If you are aged between 18 and 64, then yes. For a joint policy, the maximum age applies to the oldest person covered

Over 50 Life Insurance

Life insurance is designed to provide for your loved ones and dependants if you pass away or are diagnosed with a terminal illness during the length of the policy. 

Life insurance is often taken out by young families or couples with mortgage commitments, but there are plenty of policies designed specifically for people who are 50 or older – all the way up to 85 and beyond.

It works like any other type of life insurance – you pay an agreed monthly premium, and when you die your insurer pays a lump sum to whoever you named on your policy.  The money can be used for your funeral costs, to pay off existing debts or simply as a gift for your loved ones.

WHO IT’S FOR

Whether you’re receiving your pension or close to retirement our life insurance cover is designed to meet the needs of all ages.

We want to ensure joining the plan is as simple and smooth as possible.
