Drones, or UAVs, are enjoying more use in varied industries and sectors across South Africa. With their increased usage comes an increased risk of loss or damage – not only to the drone itself, but also to third parties. Do you have legal liability insurance?
We at CC&A Insurance understand these risks and offer full-service drone cover for commercial users, as well as legal liability for third parties, and products liability.
Commercial drone operators – whether operating a single drone or a fleet – will require adequate insurance in order to safely and legally carry out their business. In fact, most businesses require proof of acceptable insurance before hiring the services of a UAV operator.
A wise commercial drone operator will understand that the damages resulting from an accident during a flight are not limited to their equipment, but can have far reaching effects leading to financial disaster.
Legal liability includes:
- Cover for up to US$10 000 000
- Compensatory damages in respect of accidental bodily injury (fatal or otherwise)
- Compensatory damages to property
- Payload
- Cover during the R&D phase
- Ground Station
- Hull War and Allied perils liability extension
We understand the challenges faced by UAV manufacturers, as well as UAV sales and UAV repair businesses in South Africa – which is why our UAV insurance includes UAV products liability cover.
Products Liability includes:
- Bodily injury or property damage arising out of products manufactured
- Legal costs incurred in the defence of any claims
We are certain that our drone insurance options will satisfy your needs and we look forward to being of assistance.
