Product page; the issued policy and declarations control actual coverage. The product page's exclusions section appears to reuse unrelated telehealth-policy text, so it was not cited here.

You request Founder Shield Venture Capital Asset Protection Insurance through Founder Shield's website or an insurance advisor rather than binding coverage directly; Founder Shield says its placement team then approaches carriers on the client's behalf. ^2,3Company-reported.
