The owner of a successful chain of spas wants to ensure her liability coverage is...

The correct answer is A. Advertising liability . A commercial umbrella liability policy provides additional liability protection over underlying primary policies and may also provide broader liability coverage, subject to its wording, exclusions, self-insured retention, and underlying insurance requirements. For a spa business, the primary concern includes bodily injury claims such as slip and falls, but the question also mentions social media questions about health and safety practices. Advertising liability is relevant because public statements, promotional material, website content, social media communications, and marketing activities can create allegations such as defamation, libel, slander, invasion of privacy, copyright infringement in advertising, or misleading promotional injury, depending on policy wording. Money and securities are crime/property exposures, not umbrella liability. Workers’ compensation concerns employee injury and is not generally covered by a liability umbrella in the same way. Accidental death and dismemberment is an accident benefits or personal accident concept, not commercial umbrella liability. A broker should ensure that the umbrella policy coordinates properly with the CGL and that exclusions do not remove expected spa-related or advertising-related exposures.
