What is Private Liability Insurance?
Easy! Private Liability covers you, if you cause physical or material damages to others. Sometimes these damages can get quite costly, so just to make sure you are safe, we cover you up to 30 million euros.
You are covered in case of
Medical Injuries
Imagine you're carrying something heavy and drop it on a friend's or a stranger's foot (ouch!). If something like this should happen to you, and someone injured needs medical care, we will cover the costs up to your coverage limit.
Broken Things
Sitting in a Café and unintentionally spilled an entire cup of coffee over your neighbour's laptop? Voilà, this is a common case of "damaged things". But relax, we've got you and bear the financial claims up to your coverage.
Financial Losses
This is a little less obvious but still likely to happen: Imagine you’ve boxed in someone’s car, and this results in him or her missing a flight. This is a class “causal connection.” In this case of “financial loss” we cover the financial claims for a new ticket – and potential accommodation expenses too.
Protect your loved ones
Make sure your whole family is covered. Simply switch on coverage for your partner or kids when buying your policy.
