2. Services Provided – No Medical Care or Advice by BZD

BZD does not provide medical advice or care. For purposes of these Terms of Use, “medical, “medical advice,” or “medical care” includes nutritional, behavioral, psychological, and veterinary information and advice. BZD contracts with MMG and other independent, physician-owned medical groups with a network of Providers who provide virtual care services. MMG Providers and other Providers deliver clinical services via the BZD platform to their patients. Providers are independently contracted or employed by their own provider group (as applicable). Providers are not employed by BZD. The Providers, and not BZD, are responsible for the quality and appropriateness of the care they render to you. BZD do not provide any legal advice or representations in any way regarding any legal issues associated with advice, information, goods, or services offered by a Provider, including but not limited to any compliance obligations or steps necessary to comply with any state or federal laws and regulations. The Providers are independent of BZD and are merely using the Site as a way to communicate with you. Any information or advice received from a Provider comes from them alone, and not from BZD. Neither BZD, nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or any third party who may promote the Site or Service or provide a link to the Service, shall be liable for any professional advice obtained from a Provider via the Site or Service, nor any information obtained on the Site. BZD does not recommend or endorse any specific Providers, tests, physicians, medications, products, or procedures. You acknowledge that your reliance on any Providers or information delivered by the Providers via the Site or Service is solely at your own risk and you assume full responsibility for all risks associated herewith. Some Providers listed through the Services enter into contracts with us, and may pay us a fee in order to be marketed through or to use the Services. To help you find Providers who may be suitable for your needs, and enable the maximum choice and diversity of Providers participating in the Services, we will provide you with lists and/or profiles of Providers. These results are based on information that you provide to us, such as insurance information, geographical location, and healthcare specialty. They may also be based on other criteria (including, for example, Provider availability, past selections by and/or ratings of Providers by you or by other Site users, and past experience of Site users with Providers). BZD does not (a) recommend or endorse any Providers, or (b) make any representations or warranties about the training or skill of any Providers who deliver services via the Site or Service. You will be provided with available Providers based solely on the information you submit to the Site. BZD does not receive any additional fees from Providers for featuring them (i.e., higher or better placement on lists) through the Services (subject to Sponsored Results as described below). Note, however, to the extent that you use the Services as provided by your employer, BZD may provide lists and/or profile previews based also on criteria determined by your employer and your employer’s agents or advisors. In addition, to the extent that BZD serves as a platform for, or provides technical support to, the provider directory associated with your health coverage, Providers will appear in the directory based on criteria determined by your health plan or plan sponsor, as applicable. We may show you advertisements or sponsored results (“Sponsored Results”) on the Site, including above the search results. BZD receives additional fees from Providers for providing Sponsored Results. Sponsored Results shown through the Services are not, and should not be considered, an endorsement or recommendation by BZD of the Provider. You are ultimately responsible for choosing your own particular Provider. The content of the Site and the Services, including without limitation, text, copy, audio, video, photographs, illustrations, graphics and other visuals, is for informational purposes only and does not constitute professional medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or recommendations of any kind by BZD.

Online Payments For BookzDoctor

For BookzDoctor Providers

You can purchase Products and Services on the Site or through a third party by paying a monthly subscription fee provided to you at the time of your subscription, which may be subject to change at your next monthly billing cycle upon no earlier than 10 days’ notice to you. By purchasing a Product or Service, you agree to an initial and recurring monthly fee at the monthly rate, as well as any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your payments, and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges until you cancel your subscription. The applicable fee and taxes will be charged to your credit card on the date your membership is created and every monthly billing period thereafter, on the day corresponding to the monthly commencement of your membership (the “Membership Anniversary Day”). If your Membership Anniversary Day, the date of expiry of your current billing period, does not exist in a particular month (because your Membership Anniversary Day is the 29th, 30th or the 31st of the month) then we will charge your credit card on the last day of that month. If you enroll to make recurring payments automatically, all charges and fees will be billed to the credit card you designate during the setup process. If you want to designate a different credit card or if there is a change in your credit card, you must change your information online. This may temporarily delay your ability to make online payments while we verify your new payment information. Payment processing services for our Site are provided by Stripe and are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”). By agreeing to these Terms of Use or using our Product or Service, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, as they may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of BZD enabling payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide BZD accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize BZD to share it and transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe. If a credit card account is being used for a transaction, BZD or Stripe may obtain preapproval for an amount up to the amount of the payment. You represent and warrant that if you are making online payments that (i) any credit card, debit card and bank account information you supply is true, correct and complete, (ii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your credit/debit card company or bank, (iii) you will pay the charges incurred by you in the amounts posted, including any applicable taxes, and (iv) you are the person in whose name the card was issued and you are authorized to make a purchase or other transaction with the relevant credit card and credit card information. Your payment to BZD will automatically renew at the end of the subscription period, unless you cancel through your subscription page before the end of the current subscription period. You may cancel your membership at any time by filling out the cancellation form on your account page or you may also email a request using the contact information below (Section 28). Please have available and/or include the email associated with your account if you cancel by email. If you do not include such email, then you acknowledge and accept that your cancellation may be delayed or not accepted. The cancellation will take effect the day after the last day of the current subscription period, and you will be downgraded to the standard non-subscription service. However, if you cancel your payment or Service and/or terminate any of these Terms of Use before the end of the current subscription period, we will not refund any subscription fees already paid to us. If you do not wish your subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, you will need to log in to your account and follow instructions to cancel your subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your Account with us or if you have deleted the Site from your devices. Deleting your Account with us or deleting the Site from your devices does not cancel your subscription; BZD will retain all funds charged to your account until you cancel your subscription through your account page. If you are a California based subscriber, you may cancel your subscription, without penalty or obligation, at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date you subscribed.

20. Supplemental Terms Applicable to Providers

General

These supplemental terms apply to Providers in addition to the other provisions of these Terms of Use. In the event of a conflict between the supplemental terms and any other terms herein, the supplemental terms shall prevail.

To be a healthcare provider using the Site (“Provider” or “you”) you must be a physician or other healthcare professional contracted or other authorized provider group, and duly licensed/registered under applicable state and international law, as required, and must agree to comply with all laws, professional licensing board rules and other rules and regulations applicable to you as a Provider or otherwise. You represent and warrant that, at all times while using the Site, you have medical malpractice insurance coverage satisfying the requirements of all jurisdictions in which you are licensed or registered. Your relationship with the BZD users (including your patients) is directly between you and the patient. The patient will never have a physician-patient or provider-patient relationship with BZD. BZD does not practice medicine and offers no medical or healthcare services. As set forth more fully below, Provider (or your own provider group as applicable) are solely responsible for all agreements, consents, notices and other interactions with patients and other consumers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Provider (or your own provider group as applicable) are solely responsible for all billings and collections from patients and other consumers, and BZD shall have no liability whatsoever to Provider with respect to any amounts owed by any patient or other consumer to Provider. BZD does not provide any medical advice, legal advice, or representations in any way regarding any legal or medical or healthcare issues associated with Provider (or your own provider group as applicable), or goods or services or Products offered by Provider (or your own provider group as applicable), including but not limited to any compliance obligations or steps necessary to comply with any state or federal laws and regulations. Provider should seek legal counsel regarding any legal and compliance issues, and must not rely on any materials or content associated with the Services in determining Provider’s compliance obligations under law. Provider and BZD agree that BZD is not providing, to the Site users or anyone else, medical advice or legal advice. Provider will use the Site and Services only in accordance with applicable standards of good medical or healthcare practice. While software products such as the Site and Services can facilitate and improve the quality of service that Provider can offer patients, many factors, including the provider-patient relationship, can affect a patient outcome, and with intricate and interdependent technologies and complex decision-making it is often difficult or impossible to accurately determine what the factors were and in what proportion they affected an outcome. Provider shall be solely responsible for its use of the Site and Services, and the provision of medical or healthcare services to Provider’s patients. In this regard, Provider releases BZD and waives any and all potential claims against BZD as a result of Provider’s use of the Site and Services, and the provision of services to Provider’s patients. As a result of the complexities and uncertainties inherent in the patient care process, Provider agrees to defend, indemnify and hold BZD harmless from any claim by or on behalf of any patient of Provider, or by or on behalf of any other third party or person claiming damage by virtue of a familial or financial relationship with such a patient, which is brought against BZD, regardless of the cause if such claim arises for any reason whatsoever, out of Provider’s use or operation of the Site and Services. Provider will obtain BZD’s prior written consent to any settlement or judgment in which Provider agrees to any finding of fault of BZD or defect in the Site or Services. BZD will promptly notify Provider in writing of any claim subject to this indemnification, promptly provide Provider with the information reasonably required for the defense of the same, and grant to Provider exclusive control over its defense and settlement. If you submit, upload, transmit, or post any consents, notices, advice, recommendations, comments, files, videos, images or other materials to us or our Site (“Provider Content”) or provide any Provider Content to patients or other consumers, you agree not to provide any Provider Content that (1) is defamatory, abusive, libelous, unlawful, obscene, threatening, harassing, fraudulent, pornographic, or harmful, or that could encourage criminal or unethical behavior, (2) violates or infringes the privacy, copyright, trademark, trade dress, trade secrets or intellectual property rights of any person or entity, or (3) contains or transmits a virus or any other harmful component. Provider is solely responsible for obtaining all necessary agreements and consents from, and providing all required notices to, patients and other consumers. You agree not to contact other users through unsolicited e-mail, telephone calls, mailings or any other method of communication. You represent and warrant to BZD that you have the legal right and authorization to upload all Provider Content at the Site. BZD shall have a royalty-free, irrevocable, transferable right and license to use the Provider Content however BZD desires, including without limitation, to copy, modify, delete in its entirety, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from or sell or distribute such Provider Content or incorporate such Provider Content into any form, medium, or technology throughout the world. BZD is and shall be under no obligation (1) to maintain any Provider Content in confidence; (2) to pay to you any compensation for any Provider Content; or (3) to respond to any Provider Content. BZD does not regularly review Provider Content but does reserve the right (but not the obligation) to monitor and edit or remove any Provider Content submitted to the Site. You grant BZD the right to use the name that you submit in connection with any Provider Content. You agree not to use a false email address, impersonate any person or entity, or otherwise mislead as to the origin of any Provider Content. You are and shall remain solely responsible for the content of any Provider Content you post to the Site or provide to patients or other consumers. BZD and its affiliates take no responsibility and assume no liability for any Provider Content submitted by you or any third party.

We call the person(s) authorized to act on behalf of a Provider the “Authorized Representative(s)” of such Provider. The Provider and Authorized Representative may be the same person.

Your Responsibilities With Respect To PHI

You are solely responsible for affording individuals their rights with respect to relevant portions of PHI, such as the rights of access, amendment, and accounting of disclosures. You will not undertake to afford an individual any rights with respect to information in the Services other than your PHI. We apply the standards of the Privacy Rule in permitting access to the Services. You acknowledge that other federal and state laws impose additional restrictions on the use and disclosure of certain types of health information, or health information pertaining to certain classes of individuals. You agree that you are solely responsible for ensuring that your PHI may properly be disclosed for the purposes set forth in this Agreement, subject to the restrictions of the Privacy Rule and applicable law, including those laws that may be more restrictive than the Privacy Rule. In particular, you will: (i) not make available to other users through the Services any information in violation of any restriction on use or disclosure (whether arising from your agreement with such users or under law); (ii) obtain all necessary consents, authorizations, or releases from individuals required for making their health information available through the Services for the purposes set forth in this Agreement; (iii) include such statements (if any) in your notice of privacy practices as may be required in connection with your use of the Services; and (iv) not place in the Services any information that you know or have reason to believe is false or materially inaccurate.


Provider Directories

We may include your Directory Information (defined below) in our (a) “Public Provider Directories,” which are electronic directories for patients and the general public; and (b) “Professional Provider Directories,” which are electronic directories for Providers and other members of the healthcare community ((a) and (b) collectively, “Provider Directories”). Provider Directories may be made available in various electronic formats, including searchable databases, Provider landing pages, interactive reference tools, reference lists, and integrated look-up features, among others. They may also incorporate information designed to help users, such as integrated maps, and licensure confirmation tools, among others. Provider Directories may include a “contact” feature that allows users to contact other users directly through the Services. Our Public Provider Directory may be made available to public search engines to aid Provider discovery. Listing in the Provider Directories is subject to eligibility criteria, which may differ between the Public Provider Directory and Professional Provider Directory. “A Provider’s “Directory Information” includes the Provider’s name, name(s) of physicians or other healthcare professionals associated with a Provider, associated specialties, Provider’s business telephone number(s) and physical address(es), National Provider Identifiers (or NPI), and the Provider’s available appointment slots, as each is indicated from information a Provider has inputted or imported into the Services. The Directory Information may include additional information you input or upload into profile tools we make available in the Services (such as a profile photograph, accepted insurance, available office hours, a front desk email address, and the like), as and when such tools are available. You agree that we may provide your personal information and information concerning your practice to any medical group, independent practice association of physicians, health plan or other organization with which you have a contract to provide medical services, or to whose members or enrollees you provide medical services. Such information may identify you, but will not identify any individual to whom you provide services. Such information may include aggregated data concerning your patients, diagnoses, procedures, orders and the like. Provider is, and will remain, solely responsible for: (a) the provision of Services and all other professional medical services and aspects relating to Provider's practice of medicine (for the avoidance of doubt, the Services shall be performed by Provider for appropriate visits as determined in Provider's sole professional judgment), (b) documenting the Services in Provider's clinical records, (c) billing and collecting for Services, (d) providing notice to and/or obtaining consent from any third-parties relating to the provision of Services through the Site, (e) ensuring the Site is used in accordance with applicable instructions, training materials and other online that may be made available by BZD from time to time, (f) obtaining and maintaining—both the functionality and security of—all information technology software solutions and related services necessary to connect to, access or otherwise use the Site and Services, and (g) complying with applicable laws, rules, regulations, and standards imposed by government health care programs and other payors, licensing agencies and applicable accreditation bodies, including, without limitation, with respect to the provision of Services.

Provider represents and warrants to BZD that Provider’s physician, licensed therapist and other licensed health care practitioner employees and contractors (each a "Practitioner") are duly licensed without restriction to practice medicine, and are not (i) currently excluded, debarred, or otherwise ineligible to participate in the Federal health care programs as defined in 42 USC § 1320a-7b(f); (ii) convicted of a criminal offense related to the provision of health care items or services but have not yet been excluded, debarred, or otherwise declared ineligible to participate in the Federal health care programs; or (iii) under investigation or otherwise aware of any circumstances which may result in Provider or any Practitioner from being excluded from participation in the Federal health care programs. For the avoidance of doubt, these shall be ongoing representations and warranties during the term of the Agreement. Provider shall immediately notify BZD of any change in the status of these representations and warranties.


21. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration Agreement

We will try work in good faith to resolve any issue you have with Site, including Products and Services ordered or purchased through the Site, if you bring that issue to the attention of our customer service department. However, we realize that there may be rare cases where we may not be able to resolve an issue to a customer’s satisfaction.

You and BZD agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms of Use or your use of the Site, including Products and Services ordered or purchased through the Site, shall be determined by binding arbitration instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. Arbitration is more informal than bringing a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitration allows for more limited discovery than in court, however, we agree to cooperate with each other to agree to reasonable discovery in light of the issues involved and amount of the claim. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award, but in so doing, the arbitrator shall apply substantive law regarding damages as if the matter had been brought in court, including without limitation, the law on punitive damages as applied by the United States Supreme Court. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and BZD are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms of Use and any other contractual relationship between you and BZD. If you desire to assert a claim against BZD, and you therefore elect to seek arbitration, you must first send to BZD, by certified mail, a written notice of your claim (“Notice”). The Notice to BZD should be addressed to: BookzDoctor Inc. , Attn: Legal, 62 Quint avenue, Boston MA 02134 (“Notice Address”). If BZD desires to assert a claim against you and therefore elects to seek arbitration, it will send, by certified mail, a written Notice to the most recent address we have on file or otherwise in our records for you. A Notice, whether sent by you or by BZD, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If BZD and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or BZD may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by BZD or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator. You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration from the American Arbitration Association at www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after BZD receives notice at the Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration, it will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than US $1,000. The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms of Use, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by requesting them from us by writing to us at the Notice Address. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of these Terms of Use. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of these Terms of Use, including this arbitration agreement. Unless BZD and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in Austin, Texas. (If you reside outside of the United States, unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties, any arbitration hearings will take place telephonically, but will remain subject to the AAA Rules including the AAA rules regarding the selection of an arbitrator). If your claim is for US $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds US $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Each party shall pay for its own costs and attorneys’ fees, if any. However, if any party prevails on a statutory claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys’ fees, or if there is a written agreement providing for payment or recovery attorneys’ fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees to the prevailing party, under the standards for fee shifting provided by law.

YOU AND BZD AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and BZD agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If this agreement to Arbitrate provision is found to be unenforceable, then (a) the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, but the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use shall remain in full force and effect; and (b) exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claims will be in state or federal courts located in and for Boston, Massachussets.


22. Force Majeure
