WTFHot

Release and Waiver of Liability

Please read this waiver carefully. By purchasing, handling, or consuming any WTFHot pepper seasonings (including salts, powders, and blends), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and voluntarily agree to the terms of this Release and Waiver of Liability.

WARNING: EXTREMELY HOT PEPPER SEASONINGS

WTFHot products may contain super-hot chili peppers and derivatives, including but not limited to Carolina Reaper, Trinidad Moruga Scorpion, Ghost Pepper (Bhut Jolokia), and 7 Pot Brain Strain. These ingredients are exceptionally high in capsaicin (measured in Scoville Heat Units) and can cause significant discomfort and adverse reactions if mishandled or over-consumed.

1) Assumption of Risk

I, the undersigned (“Participant”), understand the risks associated with handling and consuming seasonings that contain extreme levels of capsaicin. Risks include, without limitation:

  • Intense burning sensations in the mouth, throat, and stomach.
  • Gastrointestinal distress (e.g., stomach pain, cramps, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea).
  • Sweating, flushing, shortness of breath, and/or elevated heart rate.
  • Tearing, runny nose, coughing, and temporary voice or speech changes.
  • Aggravation of pre-existing conditions (e.g., asthma, GERD, heart conditions, allergies).
  • Allergic reactions (potentially severe).
  • Skin/eye irritation upon contact; cross-contamination if hands, utensils, or surfaces are not washed properly.

I voluntarily assume all such risks, known and unknown, even if arising from the negligence of WTFHot or others, and accept full responsibility for my use.

2) Release and Waiver of Claims

In consideration for being permitted to purchase and/or use WTFHot products, I, for myself and my heirs, assigns, personal representatives, and next of kin, hereby RELEASE, WAIVE, DISCHARGE, AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE WTFHot, its owners, officers, employees, agents, affiliates, and representatives (collectively, “Releasees”) from any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, or causes of action arising from or related to injury, illness, property damage, or death resulting from my handling or consumption of these products, WHETHER CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASEES OR OTHERWISE.

3) Indemnification

I agree to INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS the Releasees from any loss, liability, damage, or costs (including attorney fees) incurred due to my use of WTFHot products, including claims brought by any third party to whom I supply or serve these products.

4) No Medical Advice / Personal Responsibility

I understand WTFHot does not provide medical advice. If I have health concerns or conditions that could be affected by spicy foods or capsaicin exposure, I will consult a physician before use. I will handle with care, keep out of reach of children and pets, avoid contact with eyes/skin, wash hands and utensils thoroughly, and use only in small amounts to season food.

5) Acknowledgement of Understanding

I HAVE READ THIS RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY, UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS, AND AGREE FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY.

By purchasing, possessing, gifting, handling, or consuming WTFHot pepper seasonings, you signify your acceptance of this waiver. If you do not agree, do not purchase or use our products.
