For the purpose of this waiver, the terms Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) shall be used interchangeably.
BY USING THE VIRTUAL REALITY HEADSETS YOU ARE INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS VR WAIVER AGREEMENT.
HEADSET – To enter Virtual Reality you must wear a headset which will totally block your view of your real location, and headphones that will prevent you from hearing the outside world. In the event of a fire alarm, remove the headset immediately.
LANGUAGE – Multi-participant VR experiences will allow you to see, and be seen by people online from anywhere in the real world in virtual reality, so please be mindful of your actions and language, respecting other participants who may be in the virtual world with you. Some participants and users of VR can be easily shocked or surprised, both pleasantly and not, which can result in some people shouting expletives. will not be responsible, accept or allow language considered morally wrong or offensive.
AGE RATINGS – Many titles have an age rating or suggestion. Participants will be able to choose any title. It is the participant's (or participant’s guardian if under 18) responsibility to check the selected games are appropriate. The VR system includes features to help display appropriate titles for the age of the participant, including filters on our Mud Foundation website, but this can only work when a participant selects or provides their correct age.
ONLINE – Some metaverse allows access to the internet and can allow interaction, including audio and gestures, which XRHUB will have absolutely no control over. This means inappropriate behavior and verbal comments can be easily encountered, and all users should be aware. Mud Foundation cannot police and, therefore will not be responsible for participants' behaviors online considered morally wrong or offensive.
WOW! – The VR experience can be extremely realistic, creating unprecedented levels of emotions. You can be scared, made to feel unsafe, unsure of your footing, or make yourself jump out of your skin. Other titles can help you relax, unwind, wow you with wonder, or make you curious. cannot be held responsible for any injury caused by a participant's actions whilst reacting to VR.
FIRST TIME – XRhub.art . recommend you ease into the VR experiences until you have become more familiar with the new world. Please read this information before choosing any experience.
A LIST OF POTENTIAL ISSUES THAT YOU MAY BE AFFECTED BY.
PLEASE READ AND CONSIDER HOW THEY MAY AFFECT YOU BEFORE ENTERING VIRTUAL REALITY.
- Eye strain.
- High volumes in the headphones (there is a volume control).
- Flickering screens and flashing images which could trigger underlying health conditions.
- Motion sickness.
- Equipment may affect some medical devices such as cardiac pacemakers etc.
- The equipment and media content of some experiences may affect those with pre-existing medical
or mental health conditions.
- May affect pregnant women adversely.
- It is possible to feel claustrophobia, panic, or other phobias.
- Objects in the real world may not be visible in the virtual world.
- Objects in the virtual world may not exist in the real world.
- Feelings of disorientation may be felt at the end of the experience.
- Repeated use may exaggerate the effects above.
HEALTH & SAFETY - If at any time you have any health & safety concerns regarding your VR experiences while using a VR headset, please stop the experience immediately, and contact the VR headset manufacturer. does not manufacture VR headsets; therefore, it is not responsible for any risks associated with the VR experience. recommends that you do not enter VR when tired, ill, under the influence of alcohol or drugs, hung over, in pain, or feeling stressed or anxious, as these factors can increase your risk of potential issues.
DISCOMFORT – Due to the unpredictable nature of the human response to virtual reality (dizziness, nausea, seizures, fear of heights, bumping into objects, etc.), by agreeing to the VR Terms and Conditions waiver section, all participants agree to release from any liability regarding the use of VR equipment including headsets.
RECOMMENDED AGES – Before using VR equipment please visit the manufacturer website for recommended age. For example, Oculus VR, LLC. PlayStation VR, and HTC Vive recommend that children over the age of 13 use VR headsets.
RISKS – Unfortunately, there are risks associated with the use of VR (Virtual Reality) and AR (Augmented Reality) headsets. Some of the risks are fairly obvious: bumping into objects, tripping over wires, etc. Other risks are not so obvious and may either be latent in their effects (for example, vision impairment) or may trigger dizziness, nausea or even a seizure. The fact is, the technology is so new that health and safety research needs to catch up with it.
WAIVER – Because of the risks associated with the use of VR headsets, Mud Foundation requires participants to agree to the terms and conditions before using VR headset equipment. Please stop use of the VR equipment if you feel any discomfort whatsoever. I acknowledge that I have read and understood all of the terms and conditions of the VR Waiver and that I am voluntarily GIVING UP the legal rights to sue or its employees. And hereby consent to the terms and conditions of this VR waiver. I am confirming that I have read the above information and understand that I must agree to the terms and conditions of this waiver and release before using VR headset equipment.
