Does Media Liability Cover Copyright Infringement?
Sometimes, if the copyright claim arises from covered media work; software, client content, and timing exclusions may limit protection.
The reviewed Hiscox form excludes some software and source-code claims, and coverage also depends on the insured activity, claim timing, and reporting.
Check how the quote treats images, text, music, software, client-supplied content, and licensing disputes. Confirm whether defense costs reduce the limit and whether an endorsement changes the exclusions.
