services may involve advising clients or associated parties, hosting clients or associated parties on its premises,
transporting clients or associated parties in its vehicle, or storing personal information associated with a client or
associated parties on its electronic systems, amongst others. Consequently, pursuant to the assessment,

coverage, general liability coverage, business use automobile coverage, or cyber risk liability coverage, amongst
others, for perils associated with those activities.
Contractor/ Recipient is advised to carry short term disability insurance for any extended unavailability due to illness,
injury, or similar.
Failure to provide and maintain insurance as required may result in termination of the Contract.

be adequate to protect the Contractor/Recipient. Such coverage and limits shall not be construed to relieve the
Contractor/Recipient from liability in excess of the required coverage and limits and shall not limit the
