My first thought is that this comes under "professional private liability insurance":

Here's a quick primer from State Farm:

Subject: GIS Insurance???

I was asked an interesting question the other day. How much should insurance cost for GIS professionals. People working for large companies or in the public sector probably don't have to worry about this but what about free-lance professionals how do they deal with this.

Has anyone purchased a policy for GIS liability in the insurance market? What was the experience like and do you have any recommendations for a good insurance company that knows and understands GIS?
