Insurance Code section 10127.7

Every policy of individual life insurance with a face value of less than ten thousand dollars ($10,000) which is delivered or issued for delivery in this state on and after July 1, 1974, shall have printed thereon or attached thereto a notice stating that, after receipt of the policy by the owner, the policy may be returned by the owner for cancellation by delivering it or mailing it to the insurer or to the agent through whom it was purchased. The period of time set forth by the insurer for return of the policy by the insured shall be clearly stated on the notice and this period shall be not less than 10 days nor more than 30 days. The insured may return the policy to the insurer at any time during the period specified in the notice. This delivery or mailing of the policy by the owner shall void the policy from the beginning, and the parties shall be in the same position as if no policy or contract had been issued. All premiums paid and any policy fee paid for the policy shall be refunded to the owner within 30 days from the date that the insurer is notified that the insured has canceled the policy.
This section applies to all policies issued, amended, or delivered in this state on or after January 1, 2011, and applies to any renewal thereof. All policies subject to this section that are in effect on January 1, 2011, shall be construed to be in compliance with this section, and any provision in such a policy that is in conflict with this section shall be of no force or effect.
This section does not apply to individual life insurance policies issued in connection with a credit transaction or issued under a contractual policy change or conversion privilege provision contained in a policy.
