    Solution

    A free look period is a period of time in which a new life insurance policy owner can terminate the policy without penalties, such as surrender charges. A free look period often lasts 10 or more days (depending on the insurer), allowing the contract holder to decide whether or not to keep it; if he or she is not satisfied and wishes to cancel, the policy purchaser can receive a full refund.
