Why do we recommend it?

All businesses run the risk of experiencing a cyber/privacy breach at least once in their lifetime. It’s an arms race against fraudsters who are becoming increasingly more sophisticated with their techniques. As a Professional Coach, you are a steward of private information. Your clients may have even asked you to sign a non-disclosure agreement before engaging in any type of contract.

So, if you or one of your employees were to lose a laptop, experience a network failure, or suffer from a hack that reveals client information—you could suddenly find yourself liable for thousands of dollars in damage. Clients tend to be very forgiving of a privacy breach when it is well-handled by a business. That is, when clients are notified in a timely manner and a sincere apology is made.

However, to accomplish these things during the fallout from a breach, you’ll need a team of professionals, provisions to keep your business running and funds for any potential damages. PROLINK can help you access all of these services with our Cyber/Privacy Breach Insurance.
