Last updated: July 20, 2026. This page contains both the Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service for the Twin Cities FoilFest website (mnfoilfest.com) and the FoilFest community event. Please read both carefully. By using this website or attending the event, you agree to the terms below.
Privacy Policy
Who we are
Twin Cities FoilFest (“we,” “us,” or “the Event”) is a free, informal community gathering for eFoil and watersports enthusiasts. Our website address is https://mnfoilfest.com. Questions about this policy can be sent to our event registration page.
What information we collect
We collect only the information you choose to provide. If you contact us or RSVP through the website, we may collect your name, email address, and any message you send. Our web host may automatically log standard technical data (such as IP address and browser type) for security and site-operation purposes. We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information.
How we use your information
We use the information you provide only to respond to your inquiries, share event details such as directions and scheduling, and coordinate the gathering. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.
Photography and media
FoilFest is a public community event where photos and videos are taken for group photo sessions, recap videos, and promotion. By attending the Event, you acknowledge that you may be photographed or filmed, and you grant permission for such images and recordings to be used by the Event and its participating partners for non-commercial promotional purposes without compensation. If you prefer not to appear in photos or videos, please let a host know on-site and we will make a reasonable effort to accommodate your request.
Cookies and analytics
This website may use basic cookies to help the site function and to understand general site traffic. You can set your browser to refuse cookies; some parts of the site may not function as intended if you do.
Third-party links
Our website may link to partner shops, sponsors, and external sites (such as Zen WaterSports, Glyde Watersports, Verdant Ride, and others). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third-party sites, and this policy does not apply to them.

Terms of Service
Acceptance of terms
By accessing this website or attending Twin Cities FoilFest, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the website or attend the Event.
The Event is free and informal
FoilFest is a free, volunteer-organized community gathering hosted at a private residence. It is not a commercial event, and attendance is a privilege extended by the hosts. The hosts reserve the right to refuse entry to, or ask any person to leave, at their sole discretion.
Assumption of risk
eFoiling, foiling, boating, swimming, and related watersports are inherently dangerous activities that involve risk of serious injury, drowning, equipment failure, and death. Participation is entirely voluntary and at your own risk. You are solely responsible for assessing your own physical fitness, ability, and comfort level before participating in any activity. You agree to follow all safety briefings, instructions from hosts and instructors, and applicable laws, and to wear appropriate safety equipment. Any equipment demos or lessons are provided on an as-is basis.
Release and waiver of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release, waive, and agree not to sue the hosts (including Brook and Barb Duerr), organizers, volunteers, instructors, sponsors, and participating partners from and against any and all claims, liabilities, injuries, losses, or damages arising out of or related to your attendance at the Event or use of any equipment, property, or the water, whether caused by ordinary negligence or otherwise, except where such a release is prohibited by law. This release does not apply to conduct that is found to be willful, reckless, or grossly negligent, or to any liability that cannot be waived under applicable law.
No warranties
This website and the Event are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee that the website will be error-free or that any information (including schedules, directions, or activities) is complete or accurate, and details are subject to change or cancellation, including for weather.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will the hosts, organizers, or partners be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the website or attendance at the Event.
Personal property
You are responsible for your own personal property and equipment. The hosts and organizers are not responsible for any lost, stolen, or damaged items.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full effect.
