Difference between CAL Copyright LICENCE and insurance

There is a significant difference between the CAL Copyright Licence and the Copyright Insurance Extension that Arthur J Gallagher (formerly OAMPS has and that other Celebrant Insurers may have.

The Celebrants Network Inc recommends celebrants take the CAL Copyright Licence - purchase with your membership.

  •  A CAL licence grants permission as well as  indemnifies the celebrant against unauthorised use, whereas Arthur J Gallagher (formerly OAMPS) is only insurance against being sued for infringement.

Insurance Cover is NOT the same as the CAL licence
