Technology E&O Insurance in New York
CPLR 213(2) says an action upon a contractual obligation or liability, express or implied, must be commenced within six years, except as provided in section 213-a or section 214-i, or in article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code, or in article 36-B of the General Business Law. CPLR 214(6) is the professional-liability row: an action to recover damages for malpractice, other than medical, dental, or podiatric malpractice, must be commenced within three years, regardless of whether the underlying theory is based in contract or tort. A technology services dispute pleaded as an ordinary contract can be on the six-year list if none of the named exceptions apply. The same dispute pleaded as malpractice is on the three-year list even if the complaint uses contract words. CPLR 1411 then reduces, and does not bar, damages for personal injury, injury to property, or wrongful death in proportion to the claimant’s culpable conduct. 1,2
What Is Technology Errors And Omissions (E&O)?
Technology errors and omissions coverage can help pay when a customer claims your software, hosting, installation or technology advice caused financial loss. If you provide tech products or services, check each activity; cyber incidents and unrelated professional work need separate review. Read the national Technology errors and omissions (E&O) guide.
What to Watch for in New York
Pick the malpractice row before you rely on six years
Section 214(6) covers malpractice other than medical, dental, or podiatric malpractice, and it says the three years apply regardless of whether the theory is contract or tort. Labeling a failed implementation as breach of the statement of work does not, by itself, move the claim into section 213(2). Ask whether the pleading is malpractice. If it is, the three-year period is the one the statute states. The E&O notice condition is a third date. 2
Four named bodies of law can take a contract claim out of the six-year section
Section 213(2) excepts section 213-a, section 214-i, UCC article 2, and General Business Law article 36-B. A sale of goods can be the UCC exception. A residential construction claim can be the General Business Law exception. Do not apply six years until those exceptions are checked. The section’s other subdivisions, including sealed instruments and mortgages, are different actions with their own six-year text. 1
The claimant’s fault reduces an injury award and does not end it
Section 1411 says that in an action for personal injury, injury to property, or wrongful death, the claimant’s or decedent’s culpable conduct, including contributory negligence or assumption of risk, shall not bar recovery. Damages otherwise recoverable are diminished in the proportion that conduct bears to the culpable conduct which caused the damages. A customer who misused a system can still recover a reduced amount on an injury or property claim. The section does not divide a contract price, and it does not change the three-year malpractice period. 3
Providers With Documented State Licenses
These providers publish a national listing for Technology errors and omissions (E&O); the state records document licenses for the entities and roles shown below. Some records rely on company-reported information rather than independent regulator verification. A national listing does not confirm the product is available in New York. Check the regulator’s license lookup and confirm state availability for your business when requesting a quote.

Insurance producer · checked 2026-09-28
TechInsurance’s current licensing page names Specialty Program Group LLC / SPG Insurance Solutions and lists state license numbers, but labels Rhode Island “Individual licenses” rather than identifying a license for the named agency. RI is omitted because this disclosure does not establish agency authority there; this is a search limitation, not an assertion that the company is unlicensed.

Its separate surplus-lines table includes Idaho number 870820, while a footnote says Georgia and Idaho do not issue agency-level surplus-lines licenses. Because those statements conflict for Idaho, this record keeps Idaho producer-only and does not treat the table number as established agency surplus-lines authority. The page is company-reported and does not establish product availability. 17
