The IGI Computer/Electronic Equipment Insurance cover can however be extended to provide for:-

LOSS OF DATA & DATA MEDIA

In this regard, compensation will be provided to indemnify the insured for costs which the insured shall incur for replacement of data media, data and regeneration of data if such cost(s) arise in connection with indemnifiable loss or damage (occurring during the period of insurance) to hardware insured under the policy, provided the data media are at locations declared in the policy schedule or in transit between those locations

INCREASED COST OF WORKING

All additional cost(s) which the insured shall incur to ensure continued data processing on substitute equipment if such costs arise as an unavoidable consequence of indemnifiable loss or damage (occurring during the period of insurance) to insured hardware, shall be compensated by the policy under this extension.
