AXIS Media and Entertainment - Claims examples
Public disclosure of public facts
An advertiser learns from a friend of a local celebrity that the celebrity uses the company’s pharmaceutical supplement. The advertiser proudly proclaims that fact in an online advertisement. The local celebrity sues alleging that the fact that he took the supplement was private (and also sues for violation of his right of publicity).
Claims examples may be based on actual cases, composites of actual cases or hypothetical claim scenarios and are provided for illustrative purposes only. Facts have been changed to protect the confidentiality of the parties. Whether or to what extent a particular loss is covered depends on the facts and circumstances of the loss, the terms and conditions of the policy as issued and applicable law.
