There’s a reason everyone signs a waiver before they give you the pass.

Never signed anything and have been on some rustbuckets of anchor-style ski lifts. The full seat ones are usually better maintained, but imo an anchor to the face shoulld be pretty nasty.
The liability waiver is printed on the back of the lift ticket, and you accept it by virtue of using the ticket.

(I don’t know about the legalities of that as a contract, but it’s how it’s almost always done at ski resorts.)

I have never encountered this in Europe. Or i might be misunderstanding what you mean
