As part of the process for underwriting general insurance products we may check with a licensed credit-referencing agency and a record of this search will be made.

Fraud Prevention and Detection
If false or inaccurate information is provided and fraud is identified, details will be passed to fraud prevention agencies. Law enforcement agencies may access and use this information.

We and other organisations may also access and use this information to prevent fraud and money laundering, for example, when:

* Checking details on proposals and claims for all types of insurance
* Checking details of job applicants and employees

We and other organisations may access and use the information recorded by fraud prevention agencies from other countries.

Claims History
Insurers pass information to the Claims and Underwriting Exchange Register, run by Insurance Database Services Ltd (IDS Ltd). The aim is to help us to check information provided and also to prevent fraudulent claims. When we deal with a request for insurance, we may search these registers.

Under the conditions of your policy, you must tell us about any incident (such as an accident or theft) which may or may not give rise to a claim. When you tell us about an incident, we will pass information relating to it to the registers. We may search these databases when you apply for insurance, in the event of any incident or claim, or at time of renewal to validate your claims history or that of any other person or property likely to be involved in the policy or claim.
