Section 2 | Negligence liability.

(1)A person cannot by reference to any contract term or to a notice given to persons generally or to particular persons exclude or restrict his liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence.

(2)In the case of other loss or damage, a person cannot so exclude or restrict his liability for negligence except in so far as the term or notice satisfies the requirement of reasonableness.

(3)Where a contract term or notice purports to exclude or restrict liability for negligence a person’s agreement to or awareness of it is not of itself to be taken as indicating his voluntary acceptance of any risk.

(4)This section does not apply to—^F1

(a)a term in a consumer contract, or^F1

(b)a notice to the extent that it is a consumer notice,^F1

(but see the provision made about such contracts and notices in sections 62 and 65 of the Consumer Rights Act 2015).
