This form of legal protection is suitable for any company that is largely reliant on the internet in its day-to-day operations. Internet legal protection covers your online activities, ensuring that a wrong click in the wrong place doesn’t have far-reaching consequences. It insures disputes involving the internet, such as breaches of privacy (cyberbullying), credit card and identity theft (cybercrime), and disputes over domain names. You can take out this module as a supplement to the corporate legal protection insurance module BASIC.
