Assumption of risk. I understand that retreat activities (including daily movement sessions, swimming, outdoor excursions, and hands-on workshops) carry inherent physical risk. I voluntarily assume all risks, whether known or unknown, arising from my participation. I acknowledge that participation is entirely voluntary.
Release of liability. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I release, discharge, and hold harmless Linger With (Pty) Ltd (Reg. 2024/253230/07), its directors, employees, contractors, artists-in-residence, movement instructors, chefs, massage therapists, and venue partners from any loss, damage, injury, illness, or death arising from or connected with my participation, except in cases of proven gross negligence or wilful misconduct on Linger's part.
Indemnification. I agree to indemnify and defend Linger and its representatives against any and all claims, demands, costs (including legal fees), or liabilities arising from my own acts or omissions during the retreat, including any injury or damage I cause to other guests, third parties, or property.
Property. I accept personal liability for any damage I cause to retreat venues, accommodation, furnishings, or other property during my stay.
Emergency medical treatment. I authorise Linger to seek emergency medical treatment on my behalf if I am unable to consent. All costs of such treatment are my sole responsibility. I acknowledge that any first aid provided by Linger staff carries no warranty of proficiency or expertise.
Force majeure. I understand that Linger is not liable for retreat disruptions or cancellations caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including natural disasters, pandemics, government action, civil unrest, or strikes. Linger will make reasonable efforts to reschedule or offer alternatives but cannot guarantee refunds or compensation.
Fitness to participate. I confirm that I am physically and mentally capable of participating in retreat activities. I have disclosed all relevant health information in Section 2. Linger is not qualified to evaluate my fitness and participation is voluntary and entirely at my own risk.
Cancellations & refunds. Cancellations made more than 90 days before the retreat start date will receive a 50% refund of payments made, less the non-refundable deposit. Cancellations made within 90 days of the retreat start date are not eligible for a refund. This is why Linger requires personal travel insurance for all guests. I have read and understood this policy.
Governing law. This agreement is governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Linger handles your personal information in accordance with applicable data protection laws in the jurisdiction where your retreat takes place, including POPIA (South Africa), the GDPR (EU and UK), and applicable US state privacy laws where relevant.
Should any provision of this agreement be found unenforceable, the remainder shall continue in full force and effect. Where applicable, Linger's total liability shall not exceed the retreat fees paid by the guest.
