Subdivision 1. Certain agreements are void and unenforceable. An agreement between parties for a consumer service, including a recreational activity, that purports to release, limit, or waive the liability of one party for damage, injuries, or death resulting from conduct that constitutes greater than ordinary negligence is against public policy and void and unenforceable.

Subd. 4. Nonapplication to certain claims. This section does not apply to claims against the state pursuant to section 3.736 or a municipality pursuant to section 466.02.
