Introduction

Effective: April 5, 2021

Last Updated: December 1, 2022

Introduction

These Terms of Use (“Terms of Use” or “Terms”) are a legal contract between you (“You/Your” or “User”) and CarePICS, LLC (“Us” or “We” or “CarePICS”), creators of the CarePICS platform (the “Platform”), and govern Your use of the Platform, and all of its content and functionality (collectively, the “Services”). These Terms apply to individuals accessing the Platform. By accepting these Terms of Use and using the Services, You acknowledge that You have read, understand, and agree to these Terms and Our Privacy Policy.

Any capitalized terms not defined in these Terms are defined in the Privacy Policy. IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS AGREEMENT OR DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS, YOU MAY NOT USE THE SERVICES.

What Are The Services?

CarePICS has developed a software solution that helps healthcare providers screen, assess, and treat peripheral artery disease, critical limb ischemia, and wound care patients more effectively. The Platform captures a photo of a patient’s open wound, analyzes the photo, and transmits the photo and results to the patient’s healthcare provider for further analysis and treatment management. The Platform is often used by specialist providers who engage in consultations with other specialists to better assess a patient’s condition.

You are either a “Provider User” or a “Patient User”.

You may access and use the Services only in accordance with these Terms, and You agree to comply with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including any other policies incorporated into these Terms, such as Our Privacy Policy.

For Patient Users:

By accepting these Terms, You agree and acknowledge that We do not provide clinical, laboratory, or supplement manufacturing services. Our role is limited to supporting and facilitating Your access to these products and services via Our Platform. Each third-party affiliate is responsible for the products and services provided. YOU HEREBY AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT CAREPICS IS IN NO WAY PROVIDING DIAGNOSIS OR TREATMENT TO YOU. YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE INFORMATION, PROCESSES, PRODUCTS, AND OTHER ITEMS REFERENCED IN THE PLATFORM ARE NOT INTENDED AS A RECOMMENDATION OR ENDORSEMENT OF ANY COURSE OF ACTION, INFORMATION, OR PRODUCT. WE EXPLICITLY DISCLAIM THE CREATION OF A PROVIDER-PATIENT RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU.

If at any time You are concerned about the care or treatment You receive from healthcare professionals affiliated with the Services (“Providers”), please contact your primary care physician or other current treatment provider. If You believe or suspect or someone else advises You that You have a serious or life-threatening condition, call 9-1-1 in areas where that service is available, or go to the nearest emergency room.

Dispute Resolution

*PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS*

Most user concerns can be resolved quickly and to Your satisfaction by emailing support at SUPPORT@CarePICS.com. In the unlikely event that Our support team is unable to resolve a complaint You may have (or if We have not been able to resolve a dispute with You after attempting to do so informally), including but not limited to any alleged breach of these Terms, You and CarePICS agree to resolve the dispute through binding arbitration in Wake County, North Carolina before a single arbitrator, in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association and the laws of North Carolina without reference to its conflict of laws provisions. Arbitration, which is often less expensive, faster, and less formal than a lawsuit in court, uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award, and may, but do not have to, award legal fees, arbitrator’s fees and costs and other costs incurred by the party that does not win the dispute.

Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. Any arbitration will be strictly confidential and neither party will disclose to any person (other than necessary to carry out the arbitration) the existence of the dispute or any aspect of the dispute.

This agreement to arbitrate will not preclude You or CarePICS from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration, including without limitation orders to stay a court action, compel arbitration or confirm an arbitral award, from a court of competent jurisdiction. Furthermore, this agreement to arbitrate will not preclude You or CarePICS from applying to a court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary. THE PROPER VENUE FOR ANY ACTION PERMITTED UNDER THIS SUBSECTION REGARDING “EQUITABLE RELIEF” WILL BE THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS LOCATED IN WAKE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA; THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE VENUE AND PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS.

Any claim or dispute arising under these Terms must be initiated for mediation and/or arbitration within two (2) years from its accrual date. Any claim or dispute initiated two (2) years or longer from its accrual date shall be time-barred and dismissed.

Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate: CarePICS may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Platform or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in the informal dispute-resolution process described above.

YOU MAY ONLY RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH CAREPICS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND MAY NOT BRING A CLAIM AS A PLAINTIFF OR A CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT ALLOWED UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE.

Notwithstanding the above, You can decline or “opt out” of the alternative dispute resolution process described above by contacting SUPPORT@CarePICS.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms and stating that You (first and last name) decline this dispute resolution process.

YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY NOT OPTING-OUT OF THE ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS DESCRIBED, YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL TO WHICH YOU MAY OTHERWISE BE ENTITLED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION OR LITIGATION IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE.

If You opt-out of the dispute resolution process described in this section, or if any matter is otherwise determined not to be subject to such dispute resolution process, You hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting within 25 miles of Wake County, North Carolina in any legal  proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms. You agree that any and all claims and matters arising out of these Terms, unless subject to the dispute resolution process described above, may be heard and determined in any such court, and You hereby waive any right to object to such filing on grounds of improper venue, forum non-conveniens, or other venue-related grounds, unless such objection asserts that the claim or matter in dispute is subject to determination through the dispute resolution process described above.

General Contract Terms

These Terms, the Privacy Policy, any other agreements executed between You and CarePICS, and any other terms incorporated herein by reference, constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between CarePICS and You regarding the use of the Services, and these Terms supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between CarePICS and You regarding use of the Services.

The failure of CarePICS to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of CarePICS. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.

SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of these Terms remain in full force, provided that the essential terms and conditions remain valid, binding and enforceable and the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by these Terms are materially preserved.
