  • Standard Coverage – insured device is protected against accidental damage, theft, and loss. Computer failures not related to accidental damage are not covered.
  • ADP+ Coverage – insured device is protected against accidental damage, theft, and loss. Additionally, the insured device is protected against mechanical failure, excluding failure due to normal wear and tear.
