Yes, I do have one. It is german insurance so you might need to search for one in your country but the reason was a special insurance condition for IT companies. For instance, they cover data deletion costs, infringements of names and some more.
I have the same insurance and the coverage depends of the price you pay for.
As Marc, in 20 years, I have never used it and also, if it would be the case, I always have emails or paper signed which prove that the client has tested first the application and did not see any bugs.
I think it also diminish when my insurance will be in use.
But I have also another insurance more like my family insurance for instance for all the damage I could also do during my work but not directly related with my work.
For instance, by accident, I push a printer out of a table and break it.

The special insurance condition for IT companies includes the following:
Fortunately, I've never had to use it and I probably wouldn't need all of the conditions.
Thank you! I don’t envision that I’d have to use it but then again, no one does :)
Haha, yes you're right
