Disclaimer
This Website is here to give you information about our products and services. It is up to you to decide whether they are suitable for you. You may want to get advice about this from an independent financial advisor.
The information on the Website may not tell you all you need to know, and you can ask us or an independent financial advisor for more details.
Though we try and keep the information up to date, there may be a time delay before we can do so. You should not rely solely on the information on this Website. You should check details about important things like price or interest rates in any actual agreement you sign as it is the terms in that document that form the agreement between us.
Our and your liability for use of this Website
The Website only complies with UK laws. You should only use it from the UK. The products and services on it are only available to you if you are a UK resident.
You may not always be able to access this Website. We are not responsible for any losses if you cannot do so (for example if you cannot obtain a product at a stated price). We are not responsible if the means of communication you use to access the Website or to send us information about yourself or to receive information from us does not work properly.
As we've explained above, the information on this Website may not always be quite up to date or complete. We advise you to check it carefully before you agree to buy a product or service, and we are not responsible for any losses you suffer if you fail to do so unless what we put on the Website was incorrect or misleading (and provided the correct information was not provided to you or made available before you completed your purchase).
Whilst we take reasonable care to ensure the accuracy of information on third party websites which we may have linked through this Website, as we cannot control what they contain, we are not responsible for any losses or other damage you suffer as a result of using those other websites.
We are not liable for losses or costs caused by abnormal and unforeseeable circumstances outside our reasonable control, which would have been unavoidable despite all efforts to the contrary, for example delays or failures caused by industrial action, problems with another system or network, third party viruses or malware, mechanical breakdown or data-processing failures.
Please remember that email is not a completely secure means of communication: it may be possible for others to intercept and read your messages. So if you choose to send us information by email, it is at your own risk.
