Medical Provider Terms of Use

Date last modified: October 28, 2022

What is this document?

These Terms of Use ("Terms" or "TOU") is an agreement between you and Freenet Health Corp., concerning use of its online and mobile platforms MindiTM ("Mindi"). It describes the rules you agree to follow when using our mobile applications and website(s) (the "Apps"), including when you view or input content on or into the Apps.

The Mindi Privacy Policy governs all privacy and data use related to our Apps. These are separate documents, but are incorporated into this TOU, and you should read them.

These Terms of Use apply to your use of Mindi as a Medical Provider. Members and patients participating on Mindi are subject to different guidelines and terms, referenced below. If you are viewing these Terms of Use for Medical Providers in error and you are a patient or a member, please review and accept the Terms of Use for Users.

Definitions

To make this document shorter and clearer, we've included some definitions:

Introduction

Mindi Services.

Mindi connects individuals with licensed medical providers. Mindi offers paid services, available through the same Apps. Mindi may be used for healthcare services via virtual consults.

These Terms of Use are an Agreement.

Generally, this agreement governs your use of the Apps. Other terms may apply to your use of a specific feature. If there is a conflict between this TOU and terms posted for a specific feature, the latter terms apply to your use of that feature or part.

THESE TERMS OF USE REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION TO RESOLVE DISPUTES AND ALSO LIMIT THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO YOU IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS, YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. SEE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT BELOW.

We May Update this Agreement.

These Terms of Use may change on a going-forward basis at any time upon 7 days' notice. Please check these Terms periodically for changes. If a change to these Terms materially modifies your rights or obligations, we may require that you accept the modified Terms in order to continue to use the Service. Material modifications are effective upon your acceptance of the modified Terms. Immaterial modifications are effective upon publication. If you do not agree to all of these Terms of Use, please do not use Mindi.

Medical Providers

Independence of Medical Providers.

Medical Providers, professionals, and specialists utilizing or featured on Mindi are neither employees nor independent contractors of Mindi. Any opinions, advice, or information expressed by any such individuals are those of the individual and the individual alone, and they do not reflect the opinions of Mindi, Freenet Health Corp., its officers, or shareholders. Mindi does not recommend or endorse any specific tests, physicians, products, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned on Mindi or by a licensee of Mindi. (Medical Providers on Mindi Premium Services are independent contractors of separate professional corporations.)

The inclusion of Medical Providers, professionals, and specialists on Mindi or in any professional directory on Mindi does not imply Mindi’s recommendation or endorsement of such professional nor is such information intended as a tool for verifying the credentials, qualifications, or abilities of any professional. SUCH INFORMATION IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS AND Mindi DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Mindi SHALL IN NO EVENT BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANYONE FOR ANY DECISION MADE OR ACTION TAKEN BY ANY PARTY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY USER) IN RELIANCE ON INFORMATION ABOUT MEDICAL PROVIDERS, PROFESSIONALS, AND SPECIALISTS UTILIZING Mindi. The use of Mindi by any entity or individual to verify the credentials of professionals or specialists is prohibited.

All opinions and statements expressed by Medical Providers on or through Mindi are solely the individual, independent opinions and statements of such individuals and do not reflect the opinions of Mindi, its affiliates, or any other organizations or institutions to which such Medical Provider or such specialist or professional is affiliated with or provides services through.

Your Account and Your Use of Mindi

You are responsible for your account. Keep your password and real name private.

Accurate and complete registration information is required to use Mindi. You are solely responsible for the security of your passwords and for any use of your account, including any access to personal information in your account. If you suspect unauthorized use of your account, change your password immediately. Allowing any other person or entity to use your identity for posting on or using Mindi is not permitted.

We reserve the right to revoke or deactivate your username and password at any time. You may terminate your account and these Terms at any time by selecting to deactivate your account by sending an email requesting deactivation to support@mindi.com.

Your use must be Legal and Appropriate.

Your use of Mindi and any Content and Services must comply with all applicable federal and state laws, regulations, and ordinances. You may not access our networks, computers, or the Content and Services in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair them, or interfere with any other person's use and enjoyment. You may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to any Content or Services, other accounts, computer systems, or networks connected to Mindi, the Content, or Services. You may not use any automated means (such as a scraper) to access Mindi, the Content, or Services. Unauthorized access includes using credentials to access Mindi. Any attempt by any individual or entity to solicit login information of any other user or Medical Provider, or to access any such account, is an express and direct violation of these Terms and of applicable law, including relevant privacy and security laws and laws prohibiting unfair or unethical business practices.

We maintain guidelines and a code of conduct for both users and Medical Providers who use Mindi. By using our services you agree to abide by our Guidelines.

We'll send you notices and information.

For more details about when and how we can communicate with you, please consult our Privacy Statement.

You agree to arbitration.

Most concerns or disputes can be resolved quickly by emailing us at help@mindi.com.  In the unlikely event that we are unable to resolve a legitimate legal complaint, you agree to resolve those disputes through binding arbitration or small claims instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. By using our Services, you agree to arbitrate any disputes with us under the terms of our Arbitration Agreement.

Content and Services

Mindi does not guarantee the accuracy of Third Party Content.

Mindi has no editorial control over or responsibility for Content provided by third parties. Any opinions, statements, products, services, or other information expressed or made available by third parties (including Medical Providers) or users on Mindi are those of such third parties or users. Mindi does not have any obligation to monitor such third party Content. We make no representations about the accuracy or reliability of any opinion, statement, or other information provided by any third party, and we do not represent or warrant that your use of the Content displayed or referenced on Mindi will not infringe the rights of third parties not owned by or affiliated with Mindi.

Mindi may not be used for illegal purposes.

The Content and Services may not be used for any illegal purpose. You may not access our networks, computers, or the Content and Services in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair them, or interfere with any other person's use and enjoyment. You may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to any Content or Services, other accounts, computer systems, or networks connected to Mindi, the Content, or Services. You may not use any automated means (such as a scraper) to access Mindi, the Content, or Services for any purpose. Such unauthorized access includes, but is not limited to, using another person's login credentials to access Mindi. Any attempt by any individual or entity to solicit login information of any other user or Medical Provider or to access any such account is an express and direct violation of these Terms of Use and of applicable law, including relevant privacy and security laws and laws prohibiting unfair or unethical business practices.

Mindi does not make recommendations or endorsements.

We do not recommend or endorse any specific Content, Services, tests, doctors, products, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned on Mindi. Reliance on Mindi Content or Services is solely at your own risk. Some Content and Services, including posts by Medical Providers, may be or have been provided by third parties directly and are not reviewed or certified by Mindi. We cannot guarantee that the Content and Services will help you achieve any specific goals or results. Content regarding dietary supplements or other treatments or regimens has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

We are not responsible for anything outside of Mindi.

The Apps may contain links to other apps, web sites, information, software, data, or other content, online or offline ("External Content and Services"). Such External Content and Services and related information are outside of our control. We do not control, endorse, verify the truth or accuracy of, or review content outside of Mindi, and we are not responsible for such content. We do not warrant, nor are we in any way responsible for, information, software, data, or privacy policies related or pertaining to External Content and Services.

Mindi may communicate with you via email, SMS, text and mobile push notification.

When you install our app on your mobile device (available late-2023), you may agree to receive push notifications, which are messages an app sends you on your mobile device when the app is not on. You can turn off notifications by visiting your mobile device's "settings" page.

We may send you emails concerning our products and services, as well as those of third parties. You may opt out of promotional emails by following the unsubscribe instructions in the promotional email itself.

Mindi and those acting on our behalf may send you text (SMS) messages to the phone number you provide us. These messages may include operational messages about your use of the Services, as well as marketing messages. If you opt out, you may continue to receive text messages for a short period while Mindi processes your request, and you may also receive text messages confirming the receipt of your opt-out request. Opting out of receiving operational text messages may impact the functionality that the Service provides to you. Text messages may be sent using an automatic telephone dialing system. Your agreement to receive text messages is not a condition of any purchase or use of the Service. Standard messaging, data, and other fees may be charged by your carrier.

Your carrier may prohibit or restrict certain mobile features, and certain mobile features may be incompatible with your carrier or mobile device. As applicable, instructions regarding how to opt-out of mobile features will be disclosed in connection with such features (instructions typically require you to text a keyword, such as "STOP," "CANCEL," "UNSUBSCRIBE," to the applicable shortcode for the mobile feature, or to change your profile settings inside the Apps).

You agree to notify Mindi of any changes to your mobile number and update your account(s) on the Apps. You also understand and agree that by receiving communications you will be charged by your wireless or internet provider and that such emails, SMS, or mobile telephone notification may be generated by automated systems.

You agree that we may send you limited personal information by email, SMS, text, and mobile push notification.

When you use action-oriented features on Mindi and Mindi Premium Services (such as subscribing to a health checklist or participating in a Virtual Consult), you agree that Mindi and IndieMD Network, LLC may send you automated content via email, mobile telephone, or other contact information provided by you in your account settings. This content may contain protected health information under HIPAA, including content related to conditions, treatments, and medications. You understand and agree that by using these features, you are expressly opting into receiving your own protected health information by email, SMS/text, or mobile push notifications. These communications from the Apps are not encrypted. Although unlikely, it is possible for these communications to be intercepted or accessed without your authorization. By using the Apps, you release Mindi from any liability arising from or related to any such interception or unauthorized access.

Mandatory Removal of Content and Services.

If you violate any of these Terms of Use, your permission to use the Content and Services automatically terminates and you must immediately destroy any copies you have made of any portion of the Content. (For more information, see Termination.)

Use of Your Information

We only use data you share with Mindi as set forth in the Mindi Privacy Statement, your account settings, and in accordance with applicable law.

We cannot control external communications (including email, SMS, and notifications).

Email, short message services (SMS), text message communications, and mobile push notifications from the Apps are not encrypted. You can opt out of receiving email, SMS/text messages, and mobile push notifications. Although unlikely, it is possible for these communications to be intercepted or accessed without your authorization. By using the Apps, you release Mindi from any liability arising from or related to any such interception or unauthorized access.

Advertising

We Do Not Advertise.

There is no paid advertising on the Apps.

Property Rights

Mindi owns or has rights to the Content and Services.

When you use the Apps, you do so under a license from us. Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with these Terms, Mindi grants you, solely for your personal, non-commercial use, a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to: (a) install and use one object code copy of our mobile App obtained from a legitimate marketplace on a mobile device that you own or control; and (b) access and use the Content and Services. This means that you may not use the Apps for any commercial purpose, that we can take away your right to use the Apps, and that you cannot give this license away to someone else. All right, title, and interest in and to the Apps, Services, and the Content, together with all related intellectual property rights are the property of Mindi or our affiliates, excluding your rights under applicable law to any information or Content related to Virtual Consults on Mindi Premium Services. Rights retained by other parties in the Content are their respective rights. Mindi reserves all rights to the Content not granted expressly in these Terms.

You agree not to infringe our Copyrights, Trademarks, Trade Secrets, Patents, or other intellectual property rights.

Mindi and other related marks are registered trademarks of Mindi. Any other trademark, brand, or content on Mindi that is not the property of Mindi is the property of its respective owner. You agree not to violate, or encourage others to violate, any right of a third party, including by infringing or misappropriating any third party intellectual property rights. You may not reproduce, create derivative works of, distribute, publicly display the Content (or any portion of it) without our prior written consent. However, you may use App features to repost Content or portions of Content, including through other third party applications and mediums (such as Facebook or Twitter), so long as you do not modify that Content or the functionality of those features. This re-posting right does not create any additional rights in such Content. Additionally, you may not use any metatags or any other "hidden text" utilizing the name "Mindi" without our prior written permission.

You agree not to access, attempt to access, or use our data without our permission.

Except and solely to the extent such a restriction is impermissible under applicable law, you may not: (a) reproduce, distribute, publicly display, or publicly perform the Apps, Services, or Content; (b) make modifications to the Apps, Services, or Content; or (c) interfere with or circumvent any feature of the Apps, including any security or access control mechanism. If you are prohibited under applicable law from using the Service, you may not use it. You agree not to access, attempt to access, request access not authorized by the Apps or use any App Content or data without our permission. This means that you agree not to transmit, download, upload, post, sell, rent, license, transfer, disclose, mirror, frame, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or use any aspect of the Apps or any Content, in whole or in part, in any form or by any means.

Contact us if you believe materials on our Apps infringe your copyright.

If you believe any materials accessible on or from Mindi infringe your valid and enforceable copyright, you may request removal of (or access to) those materials (or access thereto) from us by contacting us and providing us with information pursuant to our DMCA Removal Procedure.

You agree that your Submissions may be used by us without restriction for any purpose whatsoever.

This means Mindi has the complete right to freely use, create derivative works from and modify, such Submissions in any way, commercial or otherwise (including developing and marketing products or features using such information), and for any purpose whatsoever and without limitation. Mindi may sublicense its rights.

Mindi Arbitration Agreement

Summary.

Mindi's Terms require the use of arbitration to resolve disputes and also limits the remedies available to you in the event of a dispute. Most concerns can be resolved quickly by Mindi's customer help team. In the unlikely event that we are unable to resolve a legitimate legal complaint, we each agree to resolve those disputes through binding arbitration or small claims instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Any arbitration under this Agreement will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. We request that you work with us in good faith to resolve any disputes for 30 days after notifying us of such issues before filing arbitration. You understand that any award available under arbitration is subject to the limitations in the Mindi TOUs. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND Mindi ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Agreement.

First things first: let's try to sort it out. We want to address your concerns without a formal arbitration or case. Before filing a claim against Mindi, you agree to make a good faith effort to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting legal@askmindi.com and responding promptly to any related communications. We'll try to resolve the dispute by contacting you via email. If a dispute is not resolved within 30 days of submission, you or Mindi may bring a formal proceeding.

This Arbitration Agreement ("Arbitration Agreement") is a condition of the Terms of Use of Mindi and the Apps. The effective date of this agreement is March 1, 2022 (the "Effective Date").

General.

If you reside in the United States or are otherwise subject to the US Federal Arbitration Act, you agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between us - except as set forth below ("Exceptions") - shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.

Any arbitration proceedings shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its rules and procedures applicable at that time, including the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (to the extent applicable), as modified by our Arbitration Agreement. You may review those rules and procedures, and obtain a form for initiating arbitration proceedings at the AAA's website. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Mindi. The arbitration shall be held in Santa Clara County, California or at another mutually agreed location. If the reasonable value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, either of us may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on us subject to the arbitrator's discretion to require an in-person hearing. Attendance at an in-person hearing may be made by telephone by you and/or us, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.

Exceptions.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Arbitration Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

Notice.

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). The Notice to Mindi should be addressed to: General Counsel, Mindi, 250 state Highway 46, Boerne, Texas 78006 ("Notice Address"). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought and the specific applicable legal basis for the requested relief ("Demand"). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or Mindi may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Mindi must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any.

The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different Mindi users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties, except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act.

Opt-Out.

If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of this Arbitration Agreement within 30 days after the date that you agree to the Terms by sending a letter to General Counsel, Mindi, 250 State Highway 46, Boerne, Texas 78006 that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration ("Opt-Out Notice"). Once Mindi receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Arbitration Agreement will be void and any action arising out of the Terms will be resolved under the governing law and jurisdiction set forth in the Terms. The remaining provisions of the Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.

Fees.

The AAA rules will govern the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees, unless our Arbitration Agreement expressly provides otherwise. If the amount of any claim in an arbitration is $5,000 or less, Mindi will pay all arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, so long as: (a) you make a written request for such payment of fees and submit it to the AAA with your Demand for Arbitration; and (b) your claim is not determined by the arbitrator to be frivolous or without merit under Mindi's Terms of Use or otherwise ("Frivolous Claims"). In such case, we will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to the AAA. If the amount of the claim exceeds $10,000 and you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Mindi will pay as much of the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. If the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration are Frivolous Claims, you agree to reimburse Mindi for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by Mindi. Mindi's obligations to pay these fees shall be made after a preliminary determination that the claims are not barred or limited by the Mindi Terms of Use. Bared or limited claims constitute Frivolous Claims.

PROHIBITION OF CLASS AND REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS

YOU AND Mindi AGREE, AS PART OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS PART OF ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. WE REFER TO THIS AS THE "PROHIBITION OF CLASS AND REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS". UNLESS BOTH YOU AND WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN YOUR OR OUR CLAIM WITH ANOTHER PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY ONLY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER Mindi USERS.

Enforceability.

Except with respect to the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions, if a court decides that any part of this Arbitration Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Arbitration Agreement shall continue to apply. If a court decides that the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions is invalid or unenforceable, then the entire Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void.

Modifications.

If Mindi makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement, other than a change to Mindi's Notice Address, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to the Notice Address, in which case your account with Mindi will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

CLAIMS ARE TIME-BARRED

You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary or the applicable dispute resolution process, any claim or cause of action you may have arising out of or related to use of the Service or otherwise under these must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or you hereby agree to be forever barred from bringing such claims.
