Liability Waiver

Nature of the program

The Protak 1-Week Program includes live-fire firearms training, close-quarters defensive drills, physical conditioning, tactical medical simulations, and force-on-force scenarios using training weapons and marking rounds. Every session is supervised by professional instructors and follows strict safety protocols — but the activities themselves carry inherent risks that cannot be eliminated.

Assumption of risk

By enrolling and participating, you acknowledge and voluntarily accept the following risks, without limitation:

• Physical injury from firearms, ammunition, muzzle blast, or ejected casings.
• Injury from falls, physical exertion, contact drills, or navigating obstacles.
• Hearing loss or damage — hearing protection is provided and required at all times on the range.
• Eye injury — ballistic-rated eye protection is provided and required at all times on the range.
• Impact injury from marking rounds during force-on-force scenarios.
• Stress-induced medical events, including cardiac events, panic responses, or heat/cold exposure injuries.
• Injuries resulting from the actions of other participants, even where those participants follow instructor directives.
• Property damage or loss during the training program.

Medical fitness

You certify that you are in adequate physical and mental condition to participate in the program. You are responsible for disclosing any medical condition, medication, injury, or limitation that could reasonably affect your safety or the safety of others.

Protak reserves the right to require a physician's clearance for participants with disclosed medical conditions, or to decline participation on safety grounds. Non-disclosure of relevant medical information voids this waiver and any right to refund.

Release of claims

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue Protak, its founders, instructors, staff, contractors, facility owners, and insurers ("the released parties") from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions, and causes of action arising out of or related to any loss, damage, or injury — including death — that may be sustained by you, or by any property belonging to you, whether caused by the negligence of the released parties or otherwise, while participating in the program.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the released parties from any loss, liability, damage, or costs, including legal fees, that they may incur due to your participation in the program, whether caused by your negligence, your breach of these terms, or otherwise.

Insurance

Protak carries insurance for its own operations and instructors. This insurance does not extend to personal accident coverage for participants. You are strongly encouraged to obtain personal travel and accident insurance before attending the program, and to confirm that your policy covers tactical / firearms training activities.

Photography and media

Photographs and video may be captured during the program for internal training review and, occasionally, for marketing purposes. Faces of participants will not be used in public materials without explicit written consent. You may opt out of appearing in any Protak media at any time by informing us in writing.

Severability

If any provision of this waiver is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect. Provisions that cannot be enforced in full will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Governing law

This waiver is governed by the laws of the Republic of Moldova. Any dispute arising from it is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Chișinău, Moldova.

Acknowledgement

By enrolling in the Protak program and, on arrival, by signing the physical version of this waiver, you acknowledge that you have read and understood these terms, that you accept the risks described above, and that you are participating voluntarily and at your own risk.
