We use cookies to make this site as useful as possible. They are small text files we put in your browser to track usage of our site but they don't tell us who you are. Cookies are a standard technology used by over 90% of web sites.
We are legally required to be open, honest and transparent about how we use cookies.
Our site will not function correctly without cookies, so by using our site you agree to accept these cookies. If you do not agree to accept these cookies you must not use our site. For general information about cookies and how to disable them see the site AboutCookies.org.
There are two types of cookie you may encounter when using our site:
First party cookies: these are our own cookies, controlled by us and used to provide information about usage of our site.
Third party cookies: these are cookies found in other companies' internet tools which we are using to enhance our site, for example Google has its own cookies, which are controlled by them.
We use cookies for the following purposes:
Most of our cookies are "session cookies". A session cookie only lasts for the duration of you using our website. A web browser normally deletes session cookies when it quits. Other cookies on our site expire within an hour of you starting your visit to us. The only exception is the first party cookie named __utmz, which is placed using Google Analytics, and which expires six months from when you first visit our site. This is used so that we can understand how many of our visitors are coming to us for the first time and how many are returning to us.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. When you request a quotation or apply to purchase an insurance policy online, we use secure socket layer technology (SSL) that encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us. This ensures that the information is reasonably protected against unauthorised interception. We also follow security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which has been given to us, to provide an adequate level of security for that information.
It is important to remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
For online credit card transactions, we use third party services to encrypt your payment details utilising their SSL (secure socket layer) technology.
Using your credit card to make purchases via this site is a secure way to confirm your purchase. CHEW has put a number of security steps in place to give you confidence when buying online. The communication of all sensitive information, including personal details and credit card information, is encrypted through the use of our secure server and your web browser. This means that information can only be exchanged between you and CHEW, and that no third party can access this data whilst it is being sent over the internet. All policy details are then held on a secure computer.
We do not retain live records of credit card information on our internet web servers after the payment transaction have been completed.
Credit card fraud and misuse is a growing problem. If anyone else has access to your credit cards and uses them to pay any for any goods, services or fees in your name and address, with or without your permission, you are responsible.
We work against credit card fraud, and we try to protect our customers in every way possible. CHEW does not condone credit fraud, but we will however not be liable for any losses suffered by clients due to credit card misuse or fraud.
