Drones
Whether it is for research purposes, monitoring industrial plants, pipelines or electric cables, for photo or film shoot-ing or for logistics services: drones now fulfil many tasks in the industrial and commercial sectors. Those who use them must cover their liability risks.
When a drone crashes, the owner is liable in accordance with the German Air Traffic Act (Luftverkehrsgesetz, LuftVG), regardless of faults. This can have very far-reaching consequences and involve damage to property or even injuries to people. HDI Global SE has developed suitable coverage concepts for the professional use of drones or unpiloted aerial vehicles (UAV) or multicopters. Because drones are subject to compulsory insurance in both the commercial and private sectors.
