These Terms of Use form a binding agreement between you and UCM, whether you register and become a Member (as defined below) or Health Care Provider (as defined below) (each, a “Registered User”) or simply browse the Site as a “Visitor”. Registered Users and Visitors may be referred to collectively as “users.” By visiting, registering for, posting content on, submitting information or materials to, accessing, reviewing and/or otherwise using the Site, its information and content, and various interactive features (e.g., live chat, bulletin boards, forums, et cetera) you accept, without limitation or qualification, the following Terms of Use, which constitutes an agreement between you and UCM. If you use the Site on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity, your acceptance of the Terms will be deemed an acceptance by that entity, and “you” and “your” in these Terms of Use will refer to that entity, its directors, officers, employees, and agents. 

  1. Our Services 

UCM offers online services (the “Services”), which, in part, enable our members (“Members”) to report their health history and engage health care providers (“Health Care Providers”), to obtain non-emergency general medical advice and prescriptions for non-controlled substances (if necessary, as determined by the Health Care Provider and where consistent with applicable law and standards of care) and other general medicine and acute care advice (“Health Services”). You can access Health Services and Wellness Content through our Site, including through your web browser or our mobile applications (our “App”), web via your smartphone, desktop, or tablet computer. 

The Roles of UCM Medicine and UCM Management: Our Health Care Providers are members of a group of professional medical practices, which include UCM Medicine, as well as other independently-owned practices or individual licensed professionals that UCM Medicine partners or contracts with to provide Health Services. UCM Management is not a Health Care Provider. UCM Management merely provides a technology platform (the Site) which enables limited communications between our Members and Health Care Providers in order to permit such Health Care Providers to diagnose and treat Members if appropriate utilizing that limited communication modality. UCM Management does not provide medical advice and does not dictate, advise, control or direct any Health Care Provider, including UCM Medicine, using this Site with respect to any medical advice provided by Health Care Providers to Members. The Site is not intended by UCM Management to replace your relationship with any physician or health care professional. Neither the Site nor the Services are intended to constitute an insurance product or prescription fulfillment warehouse.

  • Use by Covered Entities Strictly Prohibited

BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF USE AND USING THE SITE, ANY AND ALL INDIVIDUALS OR ENTITIES WHO OR WHICH ARE SUBJECT TO HEALTH PRIVACY STATUTES, REGULATIONS OR OTHER PRIVACY LAWS (E.G., “COVERED ENTITIES” UNDER THE HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT (HIPAA), SET FORTH IN 45 C.F.R. PARTS 160 THROUGH 164), HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED TO OR DIRECTED BY UCM IN WRITING, UCM STRICTLY PROHIBITS THEIR ENTRY OF “PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION” (PHI) INTO THE SITE, WHETHER OR NOT ON BEHALF OF ANY COMPANY USERS OR REGISTERED USERS. INDIVIDUALS OR ENTITIES SUBJECT TO SUCH HEALTH PRIVACY LAWS, AND ALL USERS OR REGISTERED USERS FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT UCM IS NOT A “BUSINESS ASSOCIATE” OF ANY SUCH PARTIES UNDER HIPAA, UNLESS SUCH RELATIONSHIP IS DOCUMENTED PURSUANT TO A SEPARATE WRITTEN BUSINESS AGREEMENT. 

  1. Important Information about Using our Health Services 

If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, you should dial 9-1-1 and/or go to the nearest urgent care center or emergency room. We do not address medical emergencies through the Site or the Health Services. You should seek emergency help or follow-up care when recommended by a Health Care Provider. UCM will not be liable for your failure to adhere to this section.

Voluntary Use of Health Services: Your use of our Health Services is entirely voluntary. You acknowledge that you have the right to withhold or withdraw your consent and cease use of our Health Services at any time. You understand that you may suspend or terminate use of our Health Services at any time for any reason or for no reason without risking your ability to re-engage our Services in the future or losing a program benefit to which you are entitled. You also understand that no results can be guaranteed or assured through the use of our Services. 

Providing Accurate Information: To help our Health Care Providers provide you with safe and effective care, all information that you provide through the Site must be true, accurate, current and complete, and you agree to maintain and promptly update the information you provide to us to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. You acknowledge that any misrepresentations about your condition may result in serious harm to you or others.

Denial of Care: Your Healthcare Professional reserves the right to deny care for potential misuse of the Services or for any other reason if, in the professional judgment of your Health Care Provider, the provision of the Services is not medically or ethically appropriate. Under no circumstances will DEA controlled substances, non-therapeutic drugs and/or certain other drugs that present potential for abuse (as determined by us) be prescribed by Health Care Providers by way of a Health Services consult. You understand that there is no guarantee that a prescription shall be written secondary to a telemedicine consult. If you repeatedly miss scheduled appointments, we are unable to contact you for a period of time, or you fail to pay for appointments with us, you understand that you may be terminated from our practice and no longer have access to our Health Care Providers. 

Acknowledged Risks: Among the benefits of our Health Services are improved access to healthcare and convenience. However, as with any health service, there are potential risks associated with the use of technology. These risks include, but are not limited to:

  • In rare cases, information transmitted may be insufficient for healthcare decision making.
  • Disruptions can occur due to failures of the electronic equipment or internet connection, which could delay care. If this happens, you may be contacted by phone or other means of communication in order to reschedule your appointment or direct you to in person care. 
  • In rare cases a lack of access to all of your health records may result in adverse drug interactions or other errors.
  • Although we incorporate strong security protocols to protect the confidentiality of your health information, in rare instances security protocols can fail, causing a breach of confidentiality and privacy of personal medical records.

Connectivity: You are responsible for providing and maintaining, at your own risk, option and expense, any hardware, software and communication lines required to access and use this site, and we reserve the right to change the access configuration of this site at any time without prior notice.

  • Copyright Infringement Notices

It is our policy to expeditiously respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA“). This section describes the information that should be present in these notices and the take down procedure we follow with respect to allegedly infringing material. If we receive proper notification of claimed copyright infringement, our response to these notices may include removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing material and/or terminating or suspending users. If we remove or disable access in response to such a notice, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the provider of the allegedly infringing content so that they may make a counter notification pursuant to the DMCA. It is our policy to accommodate and not interfere with standard technical measures used by copyright owners to identify or protect their copyrighted works that we determine are reasonable under the circumstances.

If you believe that any Content on the Site infringes upon any copyright which you own or control, you may send a written notification to our designated copyright agent (the “Designated Agent”), identified below, with the following information:

  • A description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed, with sufficient detail so that we can identify the alleged infringing material;
  • The URL or other specific location on the Site that contains the alleged infringing material described in (a) above, with reasonably sufficient information to enable us to locate the alleged infringing material;
  • Your name, mailing address, telephone number and email address;
  • The electronic or physical signature of the owner of the copyright or a person authorized to act on the owner’s behalf;
  • A statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
  • A statement by you that the information contained in your notice is accurate and that you attest under penalty of perjury that you are the copyright owner or that you are authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf

Subject Line: Copyright (or Other) Infringement
Address: 216 River St 3rd Floor Troy, NY 12180

To notify the provider of the allegedly infringing material to which we have removed or disabled access, we may forward a copy of your infringement notice, including your name and email address to the provider of the allegedly infringing material. 

We may terminate users who, in our sole discretion, are deemed to be repeat infringers. Knowingly misrepresenting in a notification that material is infringing can subject you to damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred by us or the alleged infringer. If you receive an infringement notification from us, you may file a counter notification pursuant with our Designated Agent pursuant to the DMCA. To file a counter notification, please provide our Designated Agent with the following information: 

  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access was disabled;
  • Your name, mailing address, telephone number and email address;
  • The following statement: “I consent to the jurisdiction of [insert one of the following: (1) “the Federal District Court in which my mailing address is located”, or (2) if you reside outside of the United States, “the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York”];”;
  • The following statement: “I will accept service of process from [insert the name of the person who submitted the infringement notification] or his/her agent”;
  • The following statement: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that the affected material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled”; and
  • Your signature, in physical or electronic form.

Upon receipt of valid counter notification, we will promptly provide the person who provided the original infringement notification with a copy of your counter notification and inform that person that we will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in ten (10) business days. Further, we will replace the removed material and cease disabling access to it not less than ten (10), nor more than fourteen (14), business days following receipt of your counter notice, unless Designated Agent first receives notice from the person who submitted the original infringement notification that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the Site.

When you set up an Account, you are required to enter your name, email address, password (“Password”) and certain other information requested by UCM depending on whether you are a Member or Health Care Provider. We may reject, and you may not use an email address or Password (collectively, “Account Information”) for any reason in our sole discretion. For example, we may reject an email address that is already being used by someone else; that may be construed as impersonating another person; that belongs to another person; that violates the intellectual property or other rights of any person; or that is offensive. 

You must be 18 years or older to become a Registered User. If you are under 18 (a “Child”), you must have the permission of your parent or legal guardian to use the Site and the Services. Children may only use the Site and Services through a Child Account (see section below).

You may not use anyone else’s Account at any time, and may only maintain one Account at time.

Children’s AccountsIf you are a Member with an Account, you have the ability to create, register and approve an account to permit a Child for whom you are a legal parent or guardian to access the Services (a “Child Account”). From your Account, you have the ability to monitor and manage each Child Account associated with your User Account. You shall be liable for the acts, omissions and defaults arising from the use of such Child Accounts as if they were your Account’s own acts, omissions or defaults. You acknowledge that we may choose, but are not obligated, to make any inquiries, either directly or through third parties, that we deem necessary to validate your registration information, including without limitation engaging third parties to provide identity verification services. We reserve all rights to take legal actions against anyone who misrepresents personal information or is otherwise untruthful about their identity with respect to an Account or a Child Account.

If you register, approve or consent to the registration of, or otherwise assume responsibility for any Child Account, you represent and warrant that you are such Child’s legal parent or guardian, and you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use on behalf of such child, including without limitation being liable for all use of the Child Account and the Services by the Child. 

If you are or become aware of a User under the age of 18 who is not using the Site or the Services in accordance with this Section, or if you have concerns about other users on the Site, please contact our team immediately (844-484-7362). You acknowledge that we cannot guarantee the accuracy of any information submitted by any user and we are not obligated to verify the identity of any user, including any user’s claim to be a parent, or to verify that a parent identified by a child or other party during registration is such child’s actual parent or guardian. If we discover that you have created an account that violates this Agreement, we reserve the right to terminate your User Account or Child Account, as applicable. 

Parental Controls:  Pursuant to 47 U.S.C. Section 230(d) as amended, we hereby notify you that parental control protections (such as computer hardware, software or filtering services) are commercially available that may assist you in limiting access to material that is harmful to minors.

However, in the event that the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty that we cannot disclaim according to applicable law, you may have the right to notify the App Store Provider, and the App Store Provider may refund the purchase price for the App. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NO APP STORE PROVIDER WILL HAVE ANY OTHER WARRANTY OBLIGATION WHATSOEVER WITH RESPECT TO THE APP, AND ANY OTHER CLAIMS, LOSSES, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES, COSTS OR EXPENSES ATTRIBUTABLE TO ANY FAILURE TO CONFORM TO ANY WARRANTY IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY.

We, not the App Store Provider, are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including, but not limited to: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation, (iv) claims that the App infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights as well as the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim. By using the App, you represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.  You acknowledge and agree that the App Store Provider, and its subsidiaries, are third party beneficiaries of this Agreement, and that, upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and your use of the App, the App Store Provider will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this Agreement against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.

IN ADDITION TO ALL OTHER LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY DESCRIBED HEREIN, UCM, AS WELL AS OUR AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, SERVICE PROVIDERS AND RETAILERS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “RELEASEES”) WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE SITE, THE SITE CONTENT (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WELLNESS CONTENT) OR EXTERNAL LINKS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES CAUSED BY OR RELATED TO ERRORS, OMISSIONS, INTERRUPTIONS, DEFECTS, DELAY IN OPERATION OR TRANSMISSION, OR ANY COMPUTER VIRUS OR FAILURE.

  • Disputes, Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

This section does not apply to you if you are a Health Care Provider (as defined above)

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE 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. YOU MAY CHOOSE TO BE REPRESENTED BY A LAWYER IN ARBITRATION OR PROCEED WITHOUT ONE. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Except as may be otherwise described herein, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, other agreements on the Site, or the Privacy Policy, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be either determined by binding arbitration in Rensselaer County, New York before one arbitrator or submitted to small claims court in Rensselaer County, New York. If the arbitrator finds this location to be unreasonably burdensome to you, a new location may be selected or arbitration may be conducted over the phone, using video conferencing, or similar. You may be entitled to an in-person hearing near your place of residence. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having appropriate jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. Any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be conducted in accordance with the expedited procedures set forth in the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures as those Rules exist on the effective date of this Agreement, including Rules 16.1 and 16.2. Reasonable discovery will be allowed during arbitration in accordance with these rules. The JAMS Rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267 (within the USA).

No Class Actions: EXCEPT FOR COORDINATED CLAIMS (AS DEFINED BELOW), YOU AGREE THAT ANY CLAIMS OR ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED, AND YOU AND WE ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ARBITRATION OR CLASS ACTION. Further, except for Coordinated Claims (defined below), unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your or our claims respectively and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void and shall be severed from the remainder of this Agreement.

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. 

Seeking Arbitration: If you believe you have a dispute with us, prior to initiating arbitration or filing a claim in small claims court, you must first call our customer service representatives and present your claim or dispute to allow us the opportunity to resolve the claim or dispute. Similarly, if we believe we have a dispute with you, our customer service representatives will first contact you in an attempt to resolve the dispute. If the dispute cannot be resolved by customer service and either you or we intend to seek arbitration, the party wishing to initiate arbitration must send to the other party, a written notice of the claim (“Notice”). Your Notice to us must be delivered by certified mail and addressed to: UCM Digital Health, Inc. 216 River Street 3rd Floor, Troy, NY 12180. If we initiate arbitration, we will send a written Notice to an email address or other contact information you have previously provided to us, if available. We may also use any other means to contact you, including a message in your Account. A Notice, whether sent by you or by us, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If you and we do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. Arbitration forms can be downloaded from www.jamsadr.com. Except in the event of a Coordinated Claim (as defined below), if you are required to pay a filing fee, after we receive Notice that you have commenced arbitration, we will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US$10,000 or the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous, in which event you will be responsible for filing fees.

Hearing: 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 or video hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS Rules. If your claim exceeds US$10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules. In the event that the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of submitted documents, the arbitrator’s decision and award will be made and delivered within six (6) months of the selection of the arbitrator, unless extended by the arbitrator. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules.

Award: In the event arbitration awards you damages of an amount at least US$100 greater than our last documented settlement offer, we will pay your awarded damages or US$2,500, whichever is greater.

Coordinated Proceedings: If twenty-five (25) or more individuals initiate Notices of dispute with us raising similar claims, and counsel for the individuals bringing the claims are the same or are coordinated for these individuals (“Coordinated Claims“), the claims shall proceed in arbitration in a coordinated proceeding. Counsel for the individuals and counsel for UCM shall each select five (5) cases to proceed first in arbitration in a bellwether proceeding (“Test Cases“). The remaining cases shall not be filed in arbitration until the first ten (10) have been resolved. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining cases after the conclusion of the Test Cases, each side may select another five (5) cases to proceed to arbitration for a second bellwether proceeding. This process may continue until the parties have determined an objective methodology to make an offer to resolve each and every outstanding claim. A court will have authority to enforce this clause and, if necessary, to enjoin the mass filing of arbitration demands against UCM. Individuals bringing Coordinated Claims shall be responsible for up to US$250 of their filing fees or the maximum permissible under the applicable arbitration rules. All applicable statutes of limitations and defenses based upon the passage of time will be tolled while the Coordinated Proceedings specified in this Section are pending. We will take such action, if any, required to effectuate such tolling.

Injunctive Relief: Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and we both agree that you or we may sue in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights or in other scenarios where injunctive relief is appropriate. In the event a court or arbitrator having jurisdiction finds any portion of this Agreement unenforceable, that portion shall not be effective and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain effective. No waiver, express or implied, by either party of any breach of or default under this Agreement will constitute a continuing waiver of such breach or default or be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.

Confidentiality: The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and the Award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

Governing Law and Rules: This Agreement and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the provision in the preceding paragraph with respect to applicable substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C., Secs. 1-16). In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator is not empowered to award punitive or exemplary damages, except where permitted by statute, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages. In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator may not award any incidental, indirect or consequential damages, including damages for lost profits. The parties adopt and agree to implement the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure (as it exists on the effective date of this Agreement) with respect to any final award in an arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement.
