Except as otherwise provided, terms used herein and defined in the Terms and Conditions of use shall have the same meaning that is given to them in the Terms and Conditions of use.

The contents of this Privacy Statement are subject to change and to being updated without notice from time to time.

DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

New Ireland will not divulge personal information to a third party unless:

We have received authorisation from you so to do or
We are required to do so by law
For the purposes of verification, fraud prevention and detection and risk management we will exchange information with reputable reference sources and clearing house services.

SECURITY OF INFORMATION

At New Ireland, we understand how important the security and confidentiality of your information is to you. Keeping customers’ information secure is a top priority for New Ireland. Our goal is to protect your information on the Internet in the same way as we would our normal business information.

However, public internet email is a communication channel which cannot be guaranteed to be secure. As such, there are no guarantees that any email or its contents:

-will be delivered within a reasonable timeframe or at all,
-comes from the purported sender,
-has not been intercepted by a third party,
-are unaltered from the time of transmission.

As a result New Ireland cannot guarantee the privacy or confidentiality of information relating to you passing over the Internet.

INTERNET FRAUD

A number of financial organisations and their customers have recently been the target of hoax e-mails that are aimed at gathering Internet/account/policy details of the customers. Some of these hoax e-mails have encouraged or facilitated contact with hoax websites that purport to be (but are not) the website of the relevant financial organisation. In all cases, we would advise you to be cautious as regards disclosing your personal details. In particular, you should note that we will only ever request your personal details if:(i) you are seeking to initiate e-mail contact with us via this website; or (ii) you initiate a request for a particular service via this website and we require certain personal details to provide you with the requested service e.g. where the requested service is a request for a telephone call from a sales advisor, or a request for a pensions information pack or other product information etc.

Some of the pages on this website contain hypertext links to websites not maintained by New Ireland. You are reminded that different terms and conditions of use will apply to you as a user of such websites. In addition such websites may not attain the same privacy standards that New Ireland maintains.
