Financial Services Licence no: 282998
Australian Insurance Services (NSW) (hereafter known as AIS) is diverse in
nature and incorporates a number of subsidiaries each involved in specific industry
segments.
AIS will protect your personal information. AIS is subject to the National
Privacy Principals (NPP) as set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Commonwealth).
The NPP governs the way we collect, use, disclose and secure information about you.
The NPP also permits you access to the information we hold about you in order to
correct or update it. Information may be held on behalf of AIS outside the company
in order to provide services to us.
Our Financial Services Guide is designed to assist you in deciding whether or not to
use any of the services offered in the Guide. It contains information about remuneration
paid to us and our Authorised Representatives in relation to the services offered and
what to do if you have a complaint about our services or our Authorized Representatives.
The personal information collected and maintained by AIS comprises your name,
address, contact details and information specific to and required for the service
or product we provide to you. For some products and services we also collect and
maintain sensitive information. This may include information about your health
and any criminal convictions you may have.
The information collected allows us to:
- assess and underwrite risks
- properly administer your claims and claims brought against you
- provide insurance, financial & investment advice
- arrange and place insurance cover
AIS may seek the service of relevant third party suppliers (e.g insurers, agents,
loss adjusters, risk managers, investment managers, external administrators
mail houses etc) to carry out specialised activities. Some of these third
parties are appointed by AIS to perform specific tasks on a case by case basis,
others provide insurance and financial services to you as recommended by us.
Where your personal information is provided to these third parties to enable
them to perform their agreed activities, they are required to abide by the National
Privacy Principals and use the personal information provided just for the service
they supply.
AIS aims to ensure that your personal information is accurate, up to date and complete.
Please contact AIS if you:
- would like to seek access to or revise your personal information or
- feel that the information we currently have on record is either incorrect, incomplete or both
We regularly distribute to our clients general information regarding some of our
products and services, which we believe may be of interest to you. If you do not
wish to receive this additional (direct marketed) information please contact AIS.
If you believe that we have not protected your personal information as required
under the NPP and you wish to make a formal complaint you may contact our Privacy
Complaints Officer on 02 6562 7048 or email the full details of your complaint to
info@aisinsure.com.au
Whilst our "Authorised Representatives" are not employees of AIS, they are able

to receive from us directly. Our Authorised Representatives, who act solely for

Cooling -Off Information
You have a cooling off period. During the cooling off period you may return your
insurance contract to your broker or financial service provider to obtain a refund.
You may do this by notifying your broker or financial service provider in writing
or electronically.
You may only exercise this right during the period of 14 days starting on the earlier of:
- the time you received confirmation of this insurance transaction; or
- the end of the 5th day after the day on which this insurance contract was issued to you.
You cannot exercise your right at any time after:
- you have exercised a right or power under your insurance contract (e.g. you have made a claim); or
- your rights or powers under your insurance contract have ended.
If your insurance contract is for an event that will start and finish within the 14 day
cooling-off period, you can only exercise your right before the event starts or the
expiry of the cooling-off period, whichever is the earlier.
If you exercise your right to return this insurance contract then it is terminated
with effect from that time.
Your broker or financial service provider will give you a pro-rata refund. Your broker
or financial service provider may deduct from your refund - any tax or duty which we
have been paid or must be paid and which is not refundable; and any reasonable
administrative and transaction costs.
