Subject to these Terms of Service, WellSeek grants each user of the Offerings a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, and non-transferrable license to use (i.e., to download and display locally) Content solely for the purpose of using the Offerings.  Use, reproduction, modification, distribution or storage of any Content for purposes other than your personal use of the Offerings is expressly prohibited without prior written permission from WellSeek.  You shall not sell, license, rent, or otherwise use or exploit any Content for commercial use in any way that violates any third party right.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by WellSeek, the Services are only permitted to be used within the United States of America.

By submitting Private User Content through the Services, including without limitation your health-related information, you hereby do and shall grant WellSeek a worldwide, non-exclusive, perpetual (provided however that you will have the right to revoke such license at any time or upon termination of your Account), royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable and transferable license to aggregate, anonymize, analyze, evaluate and publish the Private User Content solely as necessary to provide you with the Offerings, including without limitation by providing such Private User Content to any Dietitian(s) designated by you.  By submitting Public User Content through the Offerings, you hereby do and shall grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable and transferable license to use, store, edit, modify, truncate, aggregate, reproduce, transmit, distribute, display, publish, perform and otherwise fully exploit the Public User Content in connection with the Offerings and our (and our successors' and assigns') businesses, including without limitation, for promoting and redistributing part or all of the Offerings (and derivative works thereof) in any media formats and through any media channels (including, without limitation, third party websites and feeds), and including after your termination of your Account or the Offerings.  You also hereby do and shall grant each user of the Offerings a non-exclusive, perpetual license to access your Public User Content through the Offerings, and to use, edit, modify, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, publish and perform such Public User Content, including after your termination of your Account or the Offerings.  For clarity, the foregoing license grants to WellSeek, your designated Dietitian(s) and our users do not affect your other ownership or license rights in your User Content, including the right to grant additional licenses to your User Content, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Payments and Billing

Paid Services.  Certain of our Offerings may be subject to payments now or in the future (the "Paid Services").  Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Paid Service are deemed part of this Agreement.  You acknowledge and agree that you shall be personally responsible for all incurred expenses. You agree to promptly pay all applicable fees and charges for your use of the Offerings (including without limitation a Dietitian's provision of services to you), and you authorize us to automatically deduct all applicable charges and fees from the payment account(s) you designate in your Account. You understand and agree that you will be responsible for a missed appointment fee equal to the fees you would have paid for the scheduled services if you do not cancel a scheduled appointment at least two business days in advance. You agree to be responsible for any telephone charges and/or Internet service fees you incur in accessing your Account through the Offerings.

Refunds.  You understand and agree that as a general matter there are no refunds or exchanges, unless WellSeek decides to issue a refund or exchange in its sole and exclusive discretion.

Billing. Payment transactions through this site are processed and disbursed by Stripe, our third-party payment processor. Stripe may not support all payment methods, currencies or locations, and is solely responsible for its performance of card processing and their related services. By agreeing to these Terms, you agree to be bound by Stripe’s Terms of Service. Any breach of those terms will be treated as a breach of these Terms.

You are responsible for paying any applicable taxes for your use of the Services.

Payment Method.  The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. If we, through the Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account upon demand.

Recurring Billing.  Some of the Paid Services may consist of an initial period, for which there is a one-time charge, followed by recurring period charges as agreed to by you.  By choosing a recurring payment plan, you acknowledge that such services have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation.  WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD, PLEASE CONTACT US AT INFO@WELLSEEK.IO

Current Information Required.  YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT.  YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD.  CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE AT OR BY CONTACTING US AT INFO@WELLSEEK.IO.  IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE.

Change in Amount Authorized.  If the amount to be charged to your Billing Account varies from the amount you preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), you have the right to receive, and we shall provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the scheduled date of the transaction.  Any agreement you have with your payment provider will govern your use of your Payment Method.  You agree that we may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle.

Auto-Renewal for Subscription Services.  Unless you opt out of auto-renewal, which can be done through your Account Settings, any Subscription Services you have signed up for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected, at the then-current non-promotional rate.  To change or resign your Subscription Services at any time, go to Account Settings.  If you terminate a Subscription Service, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current term; your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires.  However, you won't be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period.

Reaffirmation of Authorization.  Your non-termination or continued use of a Paid Service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Payment Method for that Paid Service.  We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges.  This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you.  Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Paid Service.

Free Trials and Other Promotions.  Any free trial or other promotion that provides access to a Paid Service must be used within the specified time of the trial.  You must stop using a Paid Service before the end of the trial period in order to avoid being charged for that Paid Service.  If you cancel prior to the end of the trial period and are inadvertently charged for a Paid Service, please contact us at info@wellseek.io.

Termination

WellSeek may terminate or suspend your access to all or any part of the Offerings at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice, effective immediately, which may result in the forfeiture and destruction of all information associated with your Account.  WellSeek reserves the right to reduce or restrict access to our Offerings by any account that, in WellSeek’s sole discretion, has received too many complaints (e.g., copyright or trademark infringement complaints and/or violations, as provided by our Intellectual Property Policy).  This may include (i) restricting the ability by the WellSeek Account to post new content; (ii) modifying existing content by the WellSeek Account; and/or (iii) terminating the WellSeek Account.  If you wish to terminate your Account, you may do so by following the instructions through the Offerings.  Any fees paid hereunder are non-refundable.  All provisions of these Terms of Service which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including without limitation, licenses of User Content, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.  

Warranty Disclaimer

WellSeek has not special relationship with or fiduciary duty to you.  You acknowledge that WellSeek has no duty to take any action regarding: (i) which users gain access to the Offerings; (ii) what effect any of the Content has on you; (iii) what Content you access via the Offerings; or (iv) how you may interpret or use the Content.

You release WellSeek from any and all liability for you having acquired or not acquired Content through the Offerings.  WellSeek makes no representations concerning any Content contained in or accessed through the Offerings, and WellSeek will not be responsible or liable for the accuracy, copyright compliance, or legality of material or Content contained in or accessed through the Offerings.

WellSeek does not guarantee that you will be accepted as a registered user, or as a client by one of our Dietitians.  Even if you are accepted as a client by a Dietitian, such Dietitian may determine that online nutritional counseling services are not appropriate for some or all of your needs, and accordingly may elect not to provide online nutritional counseling services to you through the Offerings in such Dietitian’s sole discretion.

WELLSEEK’S OFFERINGS AND ALL INCLUDED CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” “AS AVAILABLE” AND WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY.  WELLSEEK SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY ANY COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR USAGE OF TRADE, ALL OF WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. WE, AND OUR DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, PARTNERS AND CONTENT PROVIDERS DO NOT WARRANT THAT: (I) THE OFFERINGS WILL BE SECURE OR AVAILABLE AT ANY PARTICULAR TIME OR LOCATION; (II) ANY DEFECTS OR ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED; (III) ANY CONTENT OR SOFTWARE AVAILABLE AT OR THROUGH THE OFFERINGS IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS; (IV) ANY INFORMATION CONTAINED ON, RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF, OR OTHER ASPECT OF THE OFFERINGS WILL BE ACCURATE, CURRENT, COMPLETE OR RELIABLE; OR (V) THE RESULTS OF USING THE OFFERINGS WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS.  YOUR USE OF THE OFFERINGS IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK.  NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION PROVIDED TO YOU BY WELLSEEK WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY THAT IS NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE.  SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT PERMIT US TO EXCLUDE WARRANTIES IN THESE WAYS, SO IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THESE EXCLUSIONS WILL NOT APPLY TO OUR AGREEMENT WITH YOU.  IN SUCH EVENT THE EXCLUSIONS SHALL APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

Indemnification

You shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us, our affiliates and each of our and their respective employees, offices, directors, agents, contractors, suppliers, and representatives from all liabilities, claims, causes of action, demands, liabilities, losses, suits, disputes, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that arise from or relate to your use or misuse of, or access to, the Offerings, Content, or otherwise from your User Content, violation of these Terms of Service, or infringement by you, or any third party using your Account or identity in the Offerings, of any intellectual property or other right of any person or entity.  WellSeek reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will assist and cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses.

Limitation of Liability 

IN NO EVENT SHALL WE, NOR OUR OFFICERS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, SUPPLIERS OR CONTENT PROVIDERS, BE LIABLE UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, NEGLIGENCE OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFERINGS (I) FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, DATA LOSS, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, COMPENSATORY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (HOWEVER ARISING); (II) FOR ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE (REGARDLESS OF THE SOURCE OF ORIGINATION); (III) FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, INCLUDING DEATH, CAUSED BY YOUR USE OR MISUSE OF THE OFFERINGS; OR (IV) FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF (IN THE AGGREGATE) OF THE GREATER OF (A) FEES PAID TO US FOR THE PARTICULAR OFFERINGS DURING THE IMMEDIATELY PREVIOUS THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD OR (B) $500.00.  NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE POTENTIAL PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY OF DIETITIANS OR OTHER LICENSED HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS OR TREATMENT, OR TREATMENT THEY PROVIDE TO YOU, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED UNDER APPLICABLE STATE LAWS.  IN NO EVENT SHALL WELLSEEK BE LIABLE FOR ANY HARM CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OR MISCONDUCT OF A DIETITIAN.  IF YOU ARE DISSATISFIED WITH THE OFFERINGS, THE CONTENT, OR THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO DISCONTINUE USING THE OFFERINGS.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction  

These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, including its conflicts of law rules, and the United States of America.  You agree that any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of these Terms of Service shall be governed by the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and Federal courts of San Diego County, California.  

ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER.  YOU AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US (WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DISPUTE INVOLVES A THIRD PARTY) WITH REGARD TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH US, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DISPUTES RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOUR USE OF THE OFFERINGS, AND/OR RIGHTS OF PRIVACY AND/OR PUBLICITY, WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION IN SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA UNDER THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION'S RULES FOR ARBITRATION OF CONSUMER-RELATED DISPUTES AND YOU AND WE HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY.  DISCOVERY AND RIGHTS TO APPEAL IN ARBITRATION ARE GENERALLY MORE LIMITED THAN IN A LAWSUIT, AND OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU AND WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.  As an alternative, you may bring your claim in your local "small claims" court, if permitted by that small claims court's rules and if within such court's jurisdiction, unless such action is transferred, removed or appealed to a different court. You may bring claims only on your own behalf. Neither you nor we will participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration for any claims covered by this agreement.  YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS.  You also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated claims involving another person's account, if we are a party to the proceeding.  This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and not by any state law concerning arbitration. In the event the American Arbitration Association is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and sixty (160) days of filing the case, then either we or you can elect to have the arbitration administered instead by JAMS.  Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict with these Terms of Service.

Severability.  If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this section will be null and void.  This section will survive the termination of your relationship with us.

Modification

WellSeek reserves the right, in its sole and exclusive discretion, to modify, edit or replace any of these Terms of Service, or change, suspend, or discontinue the Offerings (including without limitation, the availability of any feature, database, or content) at any time by posting a notice on WellSeek’s website or by sending you notice through the Offerings, via e-mail or by another appropriate means of electronic communication.  WellSeek may also impose limits on certain features and services or restrict your access to parts or all of the Offerings without notice or liability.  While WellSeek will timely provide notice of modifications, it is also your responsibility to check these Terms of Service periodically for changes.  Your continued use of the Offerings following notification of any changes to these Terms of Service constitutes acceptance of those changes.

Miscellaneous

Entire Agreement and Severability.  These Terms of Service are the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Offerings, including use of the Offerings, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals (whether oral, written or electronic) between you and us with respect to the Offerings.  If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms of Service will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.  The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder.

Force Majeure.  WellSeek shall not be liable for any failure to perform our obligations hereunder where such failure results from any cause beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, mechanical, electronic or communications failure or degradation.

Assignment.  These Terms of Service are personal to you, and are not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with our prior written consent. We may assign, transfer or delegate any of our rights and obligations hereunder without consent.

Agency.  No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created as a result of these Terms of Service and neither party has any authority of any kind to bind the other in any respect.

Notices.  Unless otherwise specified in these Term of Service, all notices under these Terms of Service will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by facsimile or e-mail; or the day after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service. Electronic notices should be sent to info@wellseek.io.

No Waiver.  Our failure to enforce any part of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of our right to later enforce that or any other part of these Terms of Service. Waiver of compliance in any particular instance does not mean that we will waive compliance in the future. In order for any waiver of compliance with these Terms of Service to be binding, we must provide you with written notice of such waiver through one of our authorized representatives.

Headings.  The section and paragraph headings in these Terms of Service are for convenience only and shall not affect their interpretation.
