2.  OUTPUT

2.1.    The Output will have those features described on the Website and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Website is accessible in accordance with these Terms. You will only use the Website and the Output for your own personal use (and not for any commercial gain or benefit).
2.2.    The Sum Sure calculator takes the answers you input (or confirm, as applicable) combined with information collated by CoreLogic about the subject property (from insurers and other third party sources) and analyses them against construction industry data collated by us to generate an estimated reconstruction cost of the improvements on your property (the Estimate). Use of the Sum Sure calculator and the Estimate may not be appropriate for you and you will need to assess the suitability of this Estimate given your knowledge of your property. You specifically acknowledge:
2.2.1.  The Estimate is not intended to replace a professional valuation through a person appropriately qualified to undertake a valuation of improvement replacement costs (such as a valuer or quantity surveyor).
2.2.2.  Where any details on your property or improvements are pre-populated by us, it is your responsibility to check that the pre-populated information is accurate and correct. If you do not amend it, we will assume that you have diligently checked that pre-populated information and agree that it is accurate and correct.
2.2.3.  No physical inspection or reference to building features beyond what you describe to us (or have accepted as pre-populated) have been used in generating the Estimate. Except where expressly identified, no local laws (including local planning requirements) have been taken into account in generating the Estimate.
2.2.4.  Construction costs vary regularly from time to time and by region – construction industry data used in the Sum Sure calculator is updated regularly (as it becomes available) but may not always be up to date where construction costs are volatile, and likewise the Estimate may become out of date in a relatively short period of time. Also, for certain regions, there may be less construction data available or a lower quality of information, and this may adversely affect the Estimate.
2.2.5.  Any descriptions about the information requested for the Sum Sure calculator are simply included to assist you in completing the required information.
2.2.6.  The Sum Sure calculator does not make any allowances for any particular insurance policy conditions or tolerances that may be contained in any insurance policy that you have or may purchase in the future.
2.2.7.  We do not accept any responsibility for the answers you provide or the Third Party Information that the Sum Sure calculator receives, and as such, we will not be liable for the accuracy of, your reliance of or use of the Sum Sure calculator.
2.2.8.  A map showing property boundaries is indicative only and may not be complete or accurate. Any produced map is not intended or designed to replace the certificate of title or land survey information. If you need a certificate of title or land survey information then you can order these separately from us or a Land Titles Provider.
2.2.9.  Where a BAL Estimate is supplied, the following additional limitations and restrictions apply:
2.2.9.1.    the BAL Estimate is designed for use solely as an input to the Cordell Sum Sure calculator in generating an Estimate for a subject property;
2.2.9.2.    the BAL Estimate is generated using available data, without physical inspection of the subject allotment, vegetation classes impacting on the site or classified vegetation effective slope, using a data driven simplified methodology which is subject to limitations;
2.2.9.3.    the BAL Estimate must not be construed or relied upon as a Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) rating as determined in accordance with Australian Standard AS 3959:2018 Construction of buildings in bushfire-prone areas (and amendments or replacements) or used in establishing construction requirements for a site, and is not intended to replace a professional assessment of bushfire risk for a subject property;
