The personal and sensitive information you provide is used to administer and provide the insurance services, such as providing you with emergency assistance and to manage your and our rights and obligations in relation to the insurance services, including managing, processing and investigating claims. We may also collect, use and disclose it for product development, marketing, competitions, research, IT systems maintenance and development, recovery against third parties and for any other purposes with your consent or where authorised by law.

We rely on you to have obtained their consent on these matters.
