These Terms of Use apply to all users of this website, the software accessible on it, or the Services (the "Users").



1. CERTAIN IMPORTANT TERMS

Your use of the Services will likely result in the generation by our software of a report based on information that you supplied to us.



1.1 Caution

The report DOES NOT contain a diagnosis or advice and is not a substitute for evaluation and advice by a physician. Any statement in the report that there are no "red flags" does NOT mean that there is no need to consult a physician or that there is no problem. The report should not be interpreted or relied upon as a diagnosis or recommendation of any particular treatment or to forego treatment. You should seek and obtain the advice of your physician with any questions or concerns you may have regarding your medical or health condition. Do not delay seeking or disregard professional medical advice based on the report.

Our software is not designed or intended to determine whether or not you are suffering from a physical or mental disorder, to reach any conclusion regarding your physical or mental condition, or to replace a physician. We do not make, and hereby disclaim, any guaranty, representation, or warranty whatsoever, whether express or implied, regarding the software or the report, including but not limited to any warranty that the report meets any standards of any governmental authority or private insurer for any purpose, including but not limited to provision of or billing for health care services. You agree that we shall not be liable for any consequential damages and that our maximum liability with respect to any defect in the software or any report is limited to $100. You further agree to waive and release from liability and indemnify and hold harmless us and our directors, officers, managers, employees, and agents against and from all claims, causes of action, suits, and damages of any kind arising out of or relating to the report or your or your health professional's use or misuse of it, including but not limited to any decision to forego professional medical care or for any particular treatment or no treatment or to bill any governmental or private insurer at any particular rate for any service.

In particular, you consent to our aggregation of de-identified health information from many patients (including you) and our use, disclosure, license, and/or sale of such de-identified aggregated data for any purpose, including but not limited to research or analysis, by us or others, alone or in combination with other data, to identify, develop, or evaluate local, regional, or national health problems, needs, products, or services. You agree that we shall be the exclusive owner of any such compilation of de-identified aggregated data, and you assign any rights you may have in any such compilation to us.
