Access and Use of the Platform
Platform Description: The Platform is designed to provide individuals with a platform that enables them to access and share their health data and information, including but not limited to, “protected health information” (collectively, “User Health Data”) with third parties. We have developed relationships and built integrations with various health systems and networks (each, a “Third-Party Health Network”). Our Platform enables you to share your User Health Data stored at these Third-Party Health Networks with various third parties (together with Third-Party Health Networks, “Third-Party Partners”) at your direction and manage any consents and permissions you have with such Third-Party Partners with respect to your User Health Data.
Data Sharing with Third-Party Partners: Unless requested and enabled by you through your use of the Platform, HealthEx does not store your User Health Data directly on its own servers or infrastructure for longer than 72 hours. While HealthEx stores your account registration information (e.g. name, email, etc.) and any consents and permissions you have enabled with Third-Party Partners to facilitate your access to the Platform and sharing of your User Health Data. Your User Health Data is stored at the corresponding Third-Party Health Network or any Third-Party Partners you elect to share your User Health Data with. HealthEx only provides technical infrastructure for Third-Party Health Networks to share User Health Data to Third-Party Partners at your direction. Given such, you agree and acknowledge that the Third-Party Health Networks and Third-Party Partners are solely responsible the use and processing your User Health Data. HealthEx in no way controls, verifies or endorses how your User Health Data may be used by a Third-Party Partner. If you believe that any of your User Health Data is inaccurate or otherwise should be corrected or changed, you must contact the third party source of such User Health Data. You agree that HealthEx has no ability or obligation to maintain, correct or amend such data or other content, except as required under applicable law.
Your Registration Obligations: You may be required to register with HealthEx or provide information about yourself (e.g., name and email address) in order to access and use certain features of the Platform. If you choose to register for the Platform, you agree to provide and maintain true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Platform’s registration form. Registration data and certain other information about you are governed by our Privacy Policy. If you are under 18 years of age, you are not authorized to use the Platform, with or without registering.
Member Account, Password and Security: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account details, if any, and are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (a) immediately notify HealthEx of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session when accessing the Platform. HealthEx will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this paragraph.
Modifications to Platform: HealthEx reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Platform (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that HealthEx will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Platform.
General Practices Regarding Use and Storage: You acknowledge that HealthEx may establish general practices and limits concerning use of the Platform, including the maximum period of time that data or other content will be retained by the Platform and the maximum storage space that will be allotted on HealthEx’s or its third-party service providers’ servers on your behalf. You agree that HealthEx has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any data or other content maintained or uploaded by the Platform. You acknowledge that HealthEx reserves the right to terminate accounts that are inactive for an extended period of time.

Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
Agreement to Arbitrate
This Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration section is referred to in these Terms of Service as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and HealthEx, whether arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service (including any alleged breach thereof), the Platform, any advertising, or any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. Further, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, and such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into these Terms of Service, you and HealthEx are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.
Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief
YOU AND HEALTHEX AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND HEALTHEX AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY 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), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.
Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution
HealthEx is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing customer support at support@healthex.io. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, 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 HealthEx should be sent to contracts@healthex.io (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If HealthEx and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or HealthEx may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by HealthEx or you will not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or HealthEx is entitled.
Arbitration Procedures
Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, https://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA’s consumer arbitration page, https://www.adr.org/consumer. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of these Terms of Service as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under these Terms of Service and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
Unless HealthEx and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination will be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, HealthEx agrees 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 $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 will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
Costs of Arbitration
Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the “Arbitration Fees”) will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. To the extent any Arbitration Fees are not specifically allocated to either HealthEx or you under the AAA Rules, HealthEx and you shall split them equally; provided that if you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you are economically unable to pay your portion of such Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determines for any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of any Arbitration Fees, HealthEx will pay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, HealthEx will pay as much of the Arbitration Fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of attorneys’ fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
Confidentiality
All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.
Severability
If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” above) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement will be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” are invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement will be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid or unenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief. The remainder of these Terms of Service will continue to apply.
Future Changes to Arbitration Agreement
Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms of Service to the contrary, HealthEx agrees that if it makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to the Notice Address) while you are a user of the Platform, you may reject any such change by sending HealthEx written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted these Terms of Service (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms of Service).
Termination
You agree that HealthEx, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Platform and remove and discard any content within the Platform, for any reason, including for lack of use or if HealthEx believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms of Service. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity that may be grounds for termination of your use of the Platform, may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. HealthEx may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Platform, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Platform under any provision of these Terms of Service may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that HealthEx may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Platform. Further, you agree that HealthEx will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Platform.
User Disputes
You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions with any other user (including Third-Party Partners) in connection with the Platform, and HealthEx will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. HealthEx reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other user of the Platform.
General
These Terms of Service (together with the terms incorporated by reference herein) constitute the entire agreement between you and HealthEx governing your access and use of the Platform, and supersede any prior agreements between you and HealthEx with respect to the Platform. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use Third-Party Platforms, third-party content or third-party software. These Terms of Service will be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of law provisions. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, you and HealthEx submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within San Francisco County, California. The failure of HealthEx to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Platform or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of these Terms of Service and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms of Service to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign these Terms of Service without the prior written consent of HealthEx, but HealthEx may assign or transfer these Terms of Service, in whole or in part, without restriction. The section titles in these Terms of Service are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. As used in these Terms of Service, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, will not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Notices to you may be made via either email or regular mail. The Platform may also provide notices to you of changes to these Terms of Service or other matters by displaying notices or links to notices generally on the Platform. HealthEx will not be in default hereunder by reason of any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations where such failure or delay is due to civil disturbances, riot, epidemic, hostilities, war, terrorist attack, embargo, natural disaster, acts of God, flood, fire, sabotage, fluctuations or unavailability of electrical power, network access or equipment, or any other circumstances or causes beyond HealthEx’s reasonable control.
