INSURANCE FOR TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES
INTRODUCING ESURANCETMTECH
We recognize that technology companies are different from traditional professionals. The current legal landscape is immature and constantly evolving. The products are cutting edge with capabilities not envisaged when most insurance policies were written. Operations span international borders and products are distributed around the globe. This is why technology companies require specialist insurance.
TAILORED COVER
Many insurance policies for technology companies contain specialist errors and omissions cover, but EsuranceTMTECH is the only policy where all sections of cover have been designed purely for the technology industry. We believe this is the only way to provide seamless cover.
- Software can be considered as a service or a product. This is why our product liability and errors and omissions insurance has been tailored to avoid any gaps in cover.
- Our business interruption cover takes into account issues relating to project delivery failure, delayed milestone payments and disruption to research and development activities.
- We do not use standard insurance definitions of "technology services" as this can dramatically reduce cover. Instead we let the technology company define their business and the activities to be covered.
BREACH OF CONTRACT
The majority of errors and omissions claims against technology companies are for breach of contract, so it is very important that this area of coverage is clear and unambiguous.
- Many policies claim to cover breach of contract, but have a contractual liability exclusion or condition.
- We provide clear cover for breach of a client contract.
- We do not have a contractual liability exclusion or condition.
