indemnitee
Shielded from liability
An indemnitee is a person or entity protected by an indemnity agreement—the party who receives compensation or protection against loss, damage, or liability.
In contracts, the indemnitee is shielded from specified risks by the indemnitor: The contractor agreed to hold the property owner harmless as indemnitee for any construction-related injuries.
