Kool Bouncers can accept no liability for injuries sustained or any other loss, howsoever caused, in the absence of Kool Bouncers or its employees. As the equipment will be in the Hirers possession and control whilst in use rather than Kool Bouncers, any liability for injuries or other rests with the Hirer. Accordingly, it is strongly recommended that the Hirer has adequate public liability insurance covering his or her liability arising from the use of the equipment.

GENERAL

The Contract is between the Supplier (Kool Bouncers) and the Hirer as principals and may not be assigned by the Hirer without the express written consent of the Supplier.

These Conditions form the whole agreement between the Supplier and the Hirer and shall not be removed or varied in any way.

FORCE MAJEURE

The Supplier is in default of any of its obligations hereunder, it shall not be liable where such default is due to any act of God, war, strike, lockout, industrial action, fire, flood, drought, tempest or other event beyond the reasonable control of the Supplier.  In such circumstances, the Supplier shall give notice to the Hirer where possible, and be released from performance of its obligations hereunder to the extent the event of supervening impossibility prevents or restricts the Supplier’s performance.

These Conditions are subject to English Law and the Hirer consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts in all matters regarding the Services.
 

I have read the above document and fully understand and accept the conditions above. I am aware that whilst in my care, as the Hirer, I am fully responsible for the equipment hired and if it is found to be misused whilst in my care, I will liable to pay for a new safety test, the cost of repair for any damage or replacement (appropriateness is at the discretion on Kool Bouncers) and any loss of business due to such that misuse of the equipment.

I hereby agree to abide by the terms and conditions listed above.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Provided that the equipment is used in accordance with the above guidelines and conditions of hire, those using the inflatable should do so safely.

However, accidents can happen and Kool Bouncers can accept no liability for injuries sustained or any other loss, howsoever caused, in the absence of Kool Bouncers or its employees. As the equipment will be in the hirers possession and control whilst in use rather than Kool Bouncers, any liability for injuries or other losses caused other than in the circumstances described above rests with the hirer. Accordingly, it is strongly recommended that the hirer has adequate public liability insurance covering his or her liability arising from the use of the inflatable.
