In return for You having paid or agreed to pay the premium, We will provide the cover set out in this policy, to the extent of and subject to the terms and conditions contained in or endorsed on this policy. IMPORTANT This policy is a legal contract. You must tell Us about any material circumstances which affect Your insurance and which have occurred either since the policy started or since the last renewal date. A circumstance is material if it would influence Our judgement in determining whether to provide the cover and, if so, on what terms. If You are not sure whether a circumstance is material ask Your insurance adviser. If You fail to tell Us it could affect the extent of cover provided under the policy. You should keep a written record (including copies of letters) of any information You give Us or Your insurance adviser when You renew this policy. BREACH OF TERM We agree that where there has been a breach of any term (express or implied) which would otherwise result in Us automatically being discharged from any liability, then such a breach shall result in any liability We might have under this policy being suspended. Such a suspension will apply only from the date and time at which the breach occurred and up until the date and time at which the breach is remedied. This means that We will have no liability in respect of any loss occurring, or attributable to something happening, during the period of suspension. TERMS NOT RELEVANT TO THE ACTUAL LOSS Where there has been non-compliance with any term (express or implied) of this policy, other than a term that defines the risk as a whole, and compliance with such term would tend to reduce the risk of: • loss of a particular kind, and/or • loss at a particular location, and/or • loss at a particular time, then We agree that We may not rely on the non-compliance to exclude, limit or discharge Our liability under this policy if You show that non-compliance with the term could not have increased the risk of the loss which actually occurred in the circumstances in which it occurred. 4 AV573865_BCBPH7949_0521.indd 4 06/04/2021 15:12 Policy Definitions Each time We use one of the words or phrases listed below, it will have the same meaning wherever it appears in Your policy unless We state otherwise.
