The Drone Pilot must ensure that the drone, where the Product is mounted, is insured at all times with statutory liability insurance, if required by national law in the country where operating the aircraft.

If an incident as mentioned causes damage or death to people and animals, or damage to buildings, other physical objects or surroundings, and/or economic loss or damage, the Drone Pilot agrees that the Drone Pilot cannot hold Tundra Drone liable for damages, and the Drone Pilot waives the right to pursue Tundra Drone via legal action in any country.
