Answer:

A hold harmless agreement allows one party to assume liability and risk, protecting the other party from losses. This agreement can be paired with an acknowledgment of risk form. An indemnification or hold harmless clause ensures the other party is reimbursed for any loss or damage. A waiver or release form relinquishes a right, such as protecting someone from liability for harm or damage during contract performance or participation in an activity. However, such forms typically do not protect against intentional acts or gross negligence.
