1. Assumption of Risk & Release of Liability

In consideration of being permitted to participate in the local trip, tour, or outing (hereafter referred to as the “Event”) organized by Uncover Jamaica, I knowingly, voluntarily, and entirely at my own risk enter into this Waiver and Release of Liability.

These risks include, but are not limited to: physical or psychological injury, illness, temporary or permanent disability, economic or emotional loss, and property damage or loss. I assume all related risks, both known and unknown to me.
  • Release and Indemnity: I, for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators, and representatives, agree to fully indemnify, defend, absolve, and hold harmless Uncover Jamaica, its founders, agents, partners, and representatives (collectively, the “Sponsors”), from and against any blame, liability, claims, or demands for any injury, harm, loss, inconvenience, or damage of any kind resulting from or connected to my participation in the Event. This release applies to ordinary negligence to the extent permitted by law, excluding acts of willful recklessness on the part of Uncover Jamaica.
  • Governing Law: This agreement shall be governed for all purposes by the laws and legal jurisdiction of the Country of Jamaica.

  • Physical Health: I am physically capable, healthy, and medically fit to participate in the Event and its associated activities.
  • Medical Fitness: I have consulted with a licensed medical professional if necessary and confirm that I do not suffer from any underlying medical conditions, illnesses, or disabilities that would make it unsafe for me to participate or cause complications to my well-being during the trip.
  • Personal Responsibility: I assume full financial and personal responsibility for myself and my safety while participating.

3. Emergency Medical Treatment Authorization

In the event that I should sustain an injury or experience an illness during the Event, I hereby consent to and permit Uncover Jamaica and its representatives to authorize and provide emergency medical care deemed necessary. This includes, but is not limited to, first aid, CPR, emergency medical transport, and the sharing of relevant health information with medical personnel.

  • Respect for Privacy: Uncover Jamaica respects your privacy and asks that you respect the privacy of all other patrons on the trip.
