What is waiver and how to add edit and delete a waiver

A waiver informs participants of potential risks associated with an activity, and asks them to agree to assume responsibility for foreseen and unforeseen risks. A properly worded waiver reduces your organization's legal liability. By signing the waiver, the person agrees to free another person, company, or organization from legal liability.

Most organizations have a waiver of some kind that they require participants to agree to. If you have such a waiver, we recommend adding it, so registrants can sign it electronically when they register online. However, you are not required to have a waiver to use the system.

If you require medical release information from your participants, put this information in a waiver.

You need to consider many factors when creating a waiver. You should consult legal counsel about the text of the waiver before adding it to your registration form.
