Terms and Conditions

01About EasyCarInsure.co.za

EasyCarInsure.co.za is operated by Piyali Holdings (Pty) Ltd (“Piyali Holdings”, “we”, “us” or “our”) as an information and lead-generation website. It helps users request car-insurance information, quotations or contact from relevant insurance providers, brokers, call centres or their authorised representatives.

02No Financial Advice

Website content is provided for general information and lead-generation purposes only. It is not financial, legal, tax or other professional advice and does not take your personal needs, objectives, affordability or risk profile into account.

Before accepting a product, you should review the provider’s quotation, policy wording, disclosures, exclusions, excesses, premiums, waiting periods, limitations, claims process and full terms. Ask the provider or its authorised representative to explain anything you do not understand and seek independent advice where appropriate.

03Quote Requests and Provider Contact

When you submit a quote or enquiry form, we may share the information you provide with one or more relevant insurance providers, brokers, call centres, authorised representatives or lead-processing partners.

By submitting your details, you consent to EasyCarInsure.co.za, its service providers and relevant third parties contacting you about your quote request and related products or services. Contact may take place by telephone, email, SMS, WhatsApp, automated systems or another reasonable electronic channel, depending on the details you provide and applicable law.

Submitting a form does not guarantee that:

• you will receive a quote;
• you will qualify for any insurance product;
• any premium, saving, benefit, excess or cover amount displayed on the Website will be offered to you;
• a provider will contact you within a particular timeframe;
• multiple providers or quotations will be available; or
• the final product will match general or promotional information displayed on the Website.

Any quotation, offer, policy, premium, benefit or contract is provided by the relevant insurer, broker or authorised representative, not by EasyCarInsure.co.za.

04Your Information Must Be Accurate

You agree that information submitted through the Website will be true, accurate, current and complete. You may not submit false information, impersonate another person, use another person’s details without authority, or submit information for fraudulent, unlawful or misleading purposes.

Incorrect or incomplete information may result in an inaccurate quote, failure to make contact, rejection of an application, cancellation of cover or another adverse outcome determined by the relevant provider.

05Consent, Privacy and Marketing

We process personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Information we may process includes your identity and contact details, vehicle details, product preferences, form submissions, communication records, consent records and technical Website information.

You may withdraw consent or opt out of marketing at any time by using the opt-out method in a communication, informing the person who contacts you, or emailing info@easycarinsure.co.za. Withdrawal does not affect lawful processing that occurred before withdrawal. If your information has already been shared with a third party, you may also need to contact that party directly.

06Advertising, Analytics and Tracking Technologies

We may use third-party advertising, analytics and conversion-measurement tools, including services provided by Google, Meta and other technology providers. These tools may collect or receive device, browser, Website-activity, form-interaction, campaign, approximate-location and conversion information.

This information may be used to operate and improve the Website, measure campaign performance, attribute enquiries, optimise advertising and understand user behaviour. Where required, we will request consent for non-essential cookies or tracking technologies. You may also manage cookies through your browser or available Website controls, although disabling them may affect functionality.

Third-party services and platforms are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

07Third-Party Providers and Websites

The Website may contain links to third-party websites, forms, policy documents or external resources. We do not control third parties or the products and services they offer.

We are not responsible for a third party’s content, availability, security, advice, pricing, underwriting, policy terms, sales process, debit orders, customer service or claims handling. When you deal with a third party, your relationship and any resulting contract are with that party.

You should review each provider’s own terms, privacy policy, disclosures and product documents before entering into an agreement.

08Insurance Products and Policy Terms

Insurance products are subject to the relevant provider’s eligibility and underwriting criteria, affordability or risk assessment, excesses, exclusions, limitations, premium rules, policy wording, claims requirements and regulatory disclosures.

We do not guarantee that any product is suitable, available, cheapest or best for you. We also do not guarantee that a provider will approve your application, keep a quoted premium unchanged, accept a claim, continue cover or renew a policy.

09Fees and Commercial Arrangements

Using the Website is generally free for users unless clearly stated otherwise.

We may receive a lead fee, referral fee, marketing fee, commission or other commercial benefit when we refer users to providers, brokers, call centres, authorised representatives or other partners. This arrangement does not mean that a particular provider or product is necessarily the cheapest, best or most suitable option for you.

• use the Website for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive or misleading purposes;

We try to keep information accurate and current, but insurance products, premiums, eligibility rules, benefits, providers and legal requirements may change. Content may contain errors, omissions, generalisations or outdated information.

Any price, premium, saving, benefit or example shown on the Website is illustrative or subject to provider assessment unless expressly stated otherwise. Your actual quotation may differ materially based on factors such as your vehicle, location, age, driving history, claims history, cover requirements and the provider’s underwriting criteria.

14Testimonials and Results

Testimonials, examples and reported savings shown on the Website reflect individual experiences or illustrative outcomes. They do not guarantee that every user will receive the same number of quotations, premium, saving, service level or result.

15Disclaimer of Warranties

The Website and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not warrant or represent that:

17Indemnity

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against claims, losses, damages, penalties, costs or expenses arising from:

• your material breach of these Terms;
• your unlawful or fraudulent misuse of the Website;
• information you submit that is false, misleading or unauthorised;
• your infringement of a third party’s rights; or
• a claim by a person whose information you submitted without authority.

This clause does not apply to the extent that a claim results from our own unlawful conduct or where an indemnity is prohibited by law.

Please provide your name, contact details, a description of the complaint and any relevant reference information.

19Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The latest version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the Website after an update means that the updated Terms apply to subsequent use, subject to applicable law.

20Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any dispute relating to these Terms or the Website will be subject to the jurisdiction of the appropriate South African courts, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

21General

If any provision of these Terms is invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

Our failure or delay in enforcing a right does not waive that right.

You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our written consent. We may transfer or assign our rights or obligations where reasonably necessary for business, legal or operational purposes, subject to applicable law.

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any notices displayed at the point of data collection, constitute the agreement between you and us regarding your use of the Website. A separate agreement between you and an insurance provider is governed by that provider’s terms.
