NOTICES FROM OUR INSURER (HANNOVER) DUTY OF DISCLOSURE Before you enter into a life insurance contract with us, whether on your own behalf or on behalf of another person, you have a duty to tell us anything that you know, or could reasonably be expected to know, may affect our decision to insure and the terms of that insurance. This duty of disclosure continues after you have completed this statement until the cover has been issued by us. The same duty applies before you extend, vary or reinstate the contract. You do not need to tell us anything that: > > reduces the risk we insure you for; or > > is common knowledge; or > > we know or should know as an insurer; or > > we waive your duty to tell us about. If the insurance is for the life of another person and that person does not tell us everything he or she should have, this may be treated as a failure by you to disclose. If you or the person who becomes the life insured under the policy do not tell us something In exercising the following rights, we must consider whether different types of cover can constitute separate contracts of life insurance. If they do, we may apply the following rights separately to each type of cover. If you or the life insured do not tell us something that you or they are required to tell us, and we would not have insured on the same terms if we had been told, we may avoid the cover within 3 years of issuing it. If we choose not to avoid the cover, we may, at any time, reduce the amount for which you or the life insured have been insured. This would be worked out using a formula that takes into account the premium that would have been payable if you and the life insured had told us everything you should have. However, for death cover, we may only exercise this right within 3 years of issuing the cover. If we choose not to avoid the cover or reduce the amount for which you or the life insured have been insured, we may, at any time vary the cover in a way that places us in the same position we would have been in if we had been told everything we should have been told. However, this right does not apply to death cover. If the failure to tell us is fraudulent, we may refuse to pay a claim and treat the cover as if it never existed.
