In consideration of pawTree allowing the petPro and any guest to attend the Cruise Trip, each petPro, for her/himself, and on behalf of any guest, releases pawTree, its officers, directors, employees and agents from any and all liability arising out of or in connection with the Cruise Trip and any activities in connection with the Cruise Trip. In addition, as a condition of attending the Cruise Trip, the petPro must indemnify, defend and hold harmless pawTree from any and all liability arising out of the attendance on the Cruise trip by the petPro and guests, or any misuse of any facilities onboard the ship by the petPro or guests, except to the extent such damages arise directly from pawTree's willful misconduct.
Without the petPro's release and indemnity of pawTree set forth in the paragraph above, pawTree would not allow the petPro or guest to attend the pawTrip. If the petPro does not agree to the terms of such release and indemnity, the petPro should not and cannot attend the pawTrip. By attending the pawTrip, each petPro confirms her or his agreement to the release and indemnity language in the paragraph above.
By attending the event, the petPro (and on behalf of the petPro's guest), consents to interviews, photography, audio recording, video recording and its release, publication, exhibition, or reproduction to be used for news, webcasts, promotional purposes, telecasts, advertising, inclusion on websites, or any other purpose by pawTree without any further payment to the petPro or guests of petPro. Each petPro (for him/herself and on behalf of guest), releases pawTree from any liability connected with the taking, recording, digitizing, or publication of interviews, photographs, computer images, video and sound recordings.
By attending the event, the petPro (and on behalf of the petPro's guest), waives all rights they may have to any claims for payment or royalties in connection with any exhibition, streaming, webcasting, television, or other publication irrespective of whether a fee for admission or sponsorship is charged, and they also waive any right to inspect or approve any photo, video, or audio recording taken by pawTree or person engaged by pawTree to do so.
