Document Overview
A waiver is a legal document which protects someone who wants to reduce their risk of liability. Reducing liability is important for businesses, especially those that facilitate risk-related activities (ie. bike riding).
It’s important to remember that there are some exceptions to the release of liability. You won't be protected by a waiver if an incident is caused by some forms of negligence or misconduct on behalf of your business. It is highly recommended that all waivers be reviewed by a lawyer.
The Legal Risk Score of a Bike Use Waiver Template
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- Users should be aware that by signing the document, they waive the right to hold the provider accountable for any personal injuries, damages, or death that might occur during the activity, except in cases of gross negligence or intentional misconduct.
- The document explicitly states that there is a significant risk of serious injury, including permanent paralysis and death, associated with the activity, and by agreeing to the terms, users acknowledge and accept these risks.
- Once agreed upon, the terms of the waiver and release are binding and continue to be effective even after the activities have ended, which means the user cannot easily withdraw consent or seek legal redress after agreeing to the terms.
