CFC Media Liability Insurance

CFC's Media & Entertainment product is a package policy for content and media businesses that combines IP infringement and defamation liability, breach-of-contract cover, general liability for physical production activities, and cyber cover in one policy. ^1,2Company-reportedMedia product page and US product brochure; the policy as issued controls the exact scope for any one customer.

The Media & Entertainment application form names only CFC Underwriting Limited, a UK entity authorized and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, as the party administering the form. Neither the media product page nor the application discloses which specific insurer or Lloyd's syndicate capacity backs a given US media policy. ^3,4Not publicly disclosedApplication footer and the regulatory information page, both checked on 2026-09-23; CFC USA Inc. separately holds admitted producer licenses and E&S authorization in NY, TX, GA and CA, but that page does not tie a specific license to the Media & Entertainment product.

CFC's media page names bloggers, agents, advertising agencies and traditional media companies among the businesses this package targets, but the reviewed page and brochure do not publish a maximum revenue or company-size threshold for eligibility. ¹Company-reportedMedia product page introduction; actual eligibility for a given applicant depends on underwriting review of the application.

The policy covers IP infringement claims, such as copyright and trademark disputes, and separately covers allegations of defamatory material, addressing risks specific to businesses that create and distribute content. ²Company-reportedMedia brochure 'IP infringement and defamation' section; exclusions and conditions are set by the policy wording, which was not reviewed.

CFC covers contingent bodily injury and property damage arising from physical production activities like filming, production or events, and includes vicarious liability cover as standard so a media business is protected if held liable for a subcontractor's mistake. ²Company-reportedMedia brochure 'Contingent bodily injury and property damage' and 'Sub-contractors' vicarious liability' sections.

CFC publishes a maximum errors & omissions/media/cyber limit of $10,000,000 and a maximum commercial general liability limit of $6,000,000 for this product, with a minimum deductible of $0. ²Company-reportedBrochure 'Limits, deductibles and premiums' table; the limit and deductible on an individual policy's declarations control.

Media & Entertainment policyholders get the same Response app tools as CFC's other cyber-inclusive lines, such as dark web monitoring, phishing simulations and network deep scanning, plus a LawDepot-powered contract-drafting tool and a contract best-practices guide. ²Company-reportedMedia brochure 'Response app highlights' and 'Other benefits outside of the app' sections.

The US media application asks about editorial safeguards, including whether content is legally reviewed before publication, whether talent releases and music licensing sign-off are obtained, and who the chief editor is and how they are qualified. ³Company-reportedApplication form Section 4: Publishing.

CFC's general claims page organizes its claims team by industry and specialization but the reviewed claims and media pages did not describe media-specific claim volumes or outcomes the way the cyber brochure does for cyber claims. ^1,5Not found in reviewed sourcesClaims page and media product page, both checked on 2026-09-23.
