This Statement is a summary of Our Privacy Policy and provides an overview of how We collect, disclose and handle Your Personal Information. Our Privacy Policy may change from time-to-time and where this occurs, the updated Privacy Policy will be posted to Our website.

Chubb is committed to protecting Your privacy. Chubb collects, uses and retains Your Personal Information in accordance with the requirement of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), as amended or replaced from time-to-time.

Why We Collect Your Personal Information

The primary purpose for Our collection and use of Your Personal Information is to enable Us to provide insurance services to You.

Sometimes, We may use Your Personal Information for Our marketing campaigns and research, in relation to new products, services or information that may be of interest to You.
 

How We Obtain Your Personal Information

We collect Your Personal Information (which may include sensitive information) at various points including, but not limited to, when You are applying for, changing or renewing an insurance policy with Us or when We are processing a claim. Personal Information is usually obtained directly from You, but sometimes via a third party such an insurance intermediary or Your employer (e.g., in the case of a group insurance policy). Please refer to Our Privacy Policy for further details.

When information is provided to Us via a third party We use that information on the basis that You have consented or would reasonably expect Us to collect Your Personal Information in this way. We take reasonable steps to ensure that You have been made aware of how We handle Your Personal Information.
 

When do We disclose Your Personal Information?

We may disclose the information We collect to third parties, including:

  • the policyholder (where the insured person is not the policyholder, i.e. group policies);
  • service providers engaged by Us to carry out certain business activities on Our behalf (such as claims assessors,
  • call centres in Australia, online marketing agency, etc);
  • intermediaries and service providers engaged by You (such as current or previous brokers, travel agencies and airlines);
  • government agencies (where We are required to by law);
  • other entities within the Chubb group of companies such as the regional head offices of Chubb located in Singapore, UK or USA (Chubb Group of Companies); and
  • third parties with whom We (or the Chubb Group of Companies) have sub-contracted to provide a specific service for Us, which may be located outside of Australia (such as in the Philippines or USA). These entities and their locations may change from time-to-time. Please contact Us, if You would like a full list of the countries in which these third parties are located.

In the circumstances where We disclose Your Personal Information to the Chubb Group of Companies, third parties or third parties outside Australia We take steps to protect Personal Information against unauthorised disclosure, misuse or loss.
