No Medical Services or Advice
Company does not provide medical or health care services. Company is not a health care provider. You acknowledge and agree that by using the Services, you are not entering into provider-patient relationship with Company. By using the Services, however, you may be able to connect with a provider that is contracted with Company and enter into a provider-patient relationship with such provider. COMPANY, ITSELF, DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL OR HEALTH ADVICE, CARE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT. NOTHING STATED OR POSTED ON THE PLATFORM OR PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICES IS INTENDED TO BE, AND MUST NOT BE TAKEN TO BE THE PRACTICE OF MEDICINE OR THE PROVISION OF MEDICAL CARE.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT COMPANY MAY CONNECT YOU TO ONE OR MORE HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS/PROVIDERS THAT ARE CONTRACTED WITH COMPANY (EACH A “PROVIDER”) TO PROVIDE YOU WITH PROFESSIONAL SERVICES. FOR CLARITY, ANY PATIENT-PROVIDER RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND ANY PROVIDER WILL BE ESTABLISHED SEPARATELY AND DIRECTLY WITH SUCH PROVIDER. COMPANY IS NOT A PARTY TO ANY SUCH RELATIONSHIPS AND EACH PROVIDER IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DELIVERY OF ANY OPINIONS YOU RECEIVE THROUGH YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES.
Financial Responsibility for Services
The Company is not enrolled with, and are not participating providers with, any federal or state healthcare programs (i.e., Medicare, Medicaid) for the provision of any health care or mental health services or supplies. Neither you or the Company may receive payment from such programs for the services or products provided to you by Company. Further, to the extent that any of the labs, pharmacies, or providers may be enrolled in federal or state healthcare programs, the means through which the services and products are provided or made accessible through the Service typically precludes such services and products from being covered benefits under these programs. By choosing to use the Service, you are specifically choosing to obtain products and services on a cash basis outside of any federal or state healthcare program. Thus, you are solely responsible for the costs of any service or product provided to you.
By agreeing to use the Service, you acknowledge and agree that (a) you are explicitly choosing to obtain products and services on a cash basis outside of any federal or state healthcare program and you have sole financial responsibility for all services or products provided to you by or through the Service; and (b) neither you nor Company, the labs, pharmacies, medical groups, or providers will submit a claim for reimbursement to any federal or state healthcare program for the costs of the services and products provided to you through the Service.
Consent to Use of Telehealth Services
Telehealth involves the delivery of health care services using electronic communications, information technology or other means between a healthcare provider or mental health professional and a patient who are not in the same physical location. While the provision of health care services using telehealth may offer certain potential benefits, there are also potential risks associated with the use of telehealth. The telehealth services are not a substitute for in-person care in all cases. In order to use the Service, you will be required to review and agree to an informed consent regarding the use of telehealth (the “Patient Consent”) that will be provided to you via the Service. You agree that Company is a third party beneficiary of the Patient Consent and has the right to enforce it against you.

Your first renewal may be charged early to prevent any discontinuity in treatment. Your subsequent shipments may be charged and shipped up to two (2) days early to accommodate holidays or for other operational reasons to support continuity of treatment.

We may also offer you the ability to pause your subscription for a specified period of time. If you do not cancel before the end of the pause period, charging to your payment device will resume automatically.

Arbitration Agreement
Agreement to Arbitrate All Disputes. Except as it relates to qualifying small claims and injunctive relief as explained below, you agree that any and all disputes, controversies, or claims arising between you and Company (each a “Claim” and collectively “Claims”), including but not limited to Claims arising out of or relating to the Service, use of the Service, these Terms and/or the Privacy Policy, shall be settled by binding and final arbitration in accordance with the then prevailing Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS (“JAMS Rules and Procedures”). The JAMS Rules and Procedures are available at https://www.jamsadr.com/ or by calling (800) 352-5267. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator, who shall be selected pursuant to the JAMS Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator's decision, judgment, or award in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. The arbitrator shall apply California law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor all claims of privilege recognized at law. For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the arbitrability of any Claims, the scope, applicability, interpretation, and enforcement of this arbitration agreement, and the interpretation, applicability, enforcement, formation of these Terms and/or the Privacy Policy.
Small Claims and Injunctive Relief. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from pursuing qualifying small claims in small claims court. If your Claims qualify for small claims court, you may still assert your Claims in small claims court so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. In addition, you and Company both retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional or injunctive relief, including for prearbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these Terms, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms.
Class Waiver. You may not act as a class representative or private attorney general or participate as a member of a class of claimants with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the Claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.
Arbitration Costs and Procedures. If you initiate arbitration against us, you will not be responsible for professional fees for the arbitrator's services or any other JAMS fees. If you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be cost-prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Company will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate. Pursuant to the JAMS Rules and Procedures, the arbitration shall proceed in a location determined by the arbitrator (provided that such location is reasonably convenient for you), or at such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties.
Enforcement and Invalidity. If any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal (other than that claims will not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis), or otherwise conflicts with the rules and procedures established by JAMS, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, the portion that is deemed invalid, unenforceable or illegal is that claims will not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither claimant nor Company shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute.
THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THE JAMS RULES AND PROCEDURES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR COMPANY WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.
