Please read this document carefully and query anything that is unclear. This is an important document as it sets out our Terms and Conditions.
1. Your Objectives
We do not offer a review service with the aim of making you aware of any shortfall that you may have within your Mortgage, Protection, and General Insurance provisions and we will not detail any recommendations to you.
2. Rights to Cancel
We will inform you of your rights to cancel or withdraw from a contract with a product provider, before completing any application form. You will be reminded of these rights to cancel or withdraw in writing, prior to the completion of any transaction. We will also inform you where this right to cancel does not exist in respect of an application acted upon by a product provider prior to the completion of an application form.
3. Payment of Services – Commission
Where remuneration is in the form of a commission payment, you agree to indemnify that commission payment to us should you for any reason, following the payment of such commission, cause that payment to be re-claimed by the product provider. The maximum amount of any such liability will be notified to you in writing and in cash terms prior to the completion of any application to which commission is attributed. This clause will not apply where you exercise your right to cancel within the cooling off period.
4. Client Confidentiality
We will provide you with copies of any policy documents or official papers in relation to the recommendations accepted by you, that are received from a provider and that have not already been issued to you directly by the provider. In addition, any information about you that is held in safe keeping by us will be treated as confidential and will not be disclosed to any third party without your prior consent, unless the release of the information is required to be passed on by Law or the Rules and Regulations of the Financial Services Authority. All information will be held and maintained by us in accordance with the requirements of the Data Protection Act 1998. All information retained by us that relates to you will be available to you (or your agent) and copies can be provided once any written request for this information is received.
5. Conflict of Interests and Material Interests
We will make you aware of any conflict of interest that may arise if we become aware that another of our clients or ourselves also has an interest in the area on which you have received a recommendation. The extent of this conflict of interest will be notified to you in writing. 6. Commencement of the Terms of Business

Should we wish to terminate the Terms of Business Agreement, this will be notified to you in writing and may be issued without notice. If at the time of cancellation we are engaged in an incomplete transaction, we reserve the right not to complete the transaction and if appropriate, return to you all documentation in relation to that transaction.
