Patrol security staff shall only be armed with less than lethal weapons. Contractor and Contractor’s staff shall only utilize firearms or other weapons in accordance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations; in accordance with Contractor policy; and upon proper training in accordance with industry standards.

27. Less Than Lethal Weapons. If Client allows the use of less than lethal weapons, Client acknowledges and agrees that Contractor’s staff may utilize less than lethal weapons in providing Services. Less than lethal weapons may include weapons such as batons, expandable batons, and pepper spray (“Weapons”).

Client acknowledges certain inherent risks involved with the use of Weapons which may include injury, disability, death, or property damage.

Specific to the use of pepper spray, Client acknowledges that indoor environments provide challenges, as ventilation is usually less than in outdoor environments. Therefore, dissipation of pepper spray can take much longer. Once discharged, pepper spray may spread throughout an indoor environment. Individuals who are in the environment at the time of discharge might be affected, as might others who enter the environment. As a result, after discharge an indoor environment should be evacuated. Generally, indoor area decontamination consists of opening doors and windows in order to ventilate the enclosed area. Numerous variables will influence the time that ventilation is required, including the amount of ventilation to the area and the degree of contamination. The area affected by the residue of pepper spray should be cleaned using contamination guidelines and Personal Protective Equipment (“PPE”).

28. Firearms. If Client requests the use of armed security, Client acknowledges and agrees that Contractor’s staff may utilize firearms in providing Services. Any armed guard must be authorized to carry weapons in accordance with applicable law in the jurisdiction including maintaining current state and local licenses. Contractor’s staff shall only utilize firearms for the purpose of providing Services which, as applicable, may include protecting Client and Client’s property, and protecting the health and safety of Client, customers, invitees, and licensees at locations where Services are performed. Client acknowledges certain inherent risks involved with the use of Weapons which may include injury, disability, death, or property damage. Client acknowledges and agrees that when consenting to the use of armed security, Client also consents to Contractor’s staff utilizing less than lethal weapons as described above.

29. USE OF BODY CAMERAS & RECORDING DEVICES. Contractor retains the right to electronically record with tape recorders, video cameras, cameras, or other similar devices, during any event, in a limited degree, as deemed necessary to substantiate incidents or happenings, for which such recordings would be of material assistance to Contractor in training or in defending any actions or activity performed by its personnel. Recordings shall not be utilized for marketing purposes or for public use unless disclosure of such recordings is requested or required in legal proceedings, interrogatories, subpoena, civil investigation demand, or similar process.
