These CGU Online Terms of Use apply to your access and use of CGU Online and operate concurrently with the Terms of Use. To the extent of any inconsistency, with regard to your access and use of CGU Online, these CGU Online Terms of Use prevail.
CGU Online enables you to view and manage details relating to certain insurance policies you hold with us.

In the case of joint policies, any transaction performed on CGU Online by one policyholder will be deemed an authorised transaction performed by all policyholders.
You will remain Registered where you use your Login at least once in a two-year period. Should you not use your Login to access CGU Online for a period of two years, or such other longer period of time we determine, you will be deemed an "Inactive User" and your access to CGU Online may be disabled.
