Truemed Terms of Service
Welcome to True Medicine, Inc. (“Truemed”). Please read these Terms of Service carefully.
They contain important information that you should know about our services, and they
affect your rights.
This first part is very important:
Truemed’s Terms of Service include an arbitration agreement that, with limited
exceptions, requires you to submit claims you have against us to binding and final
arbitration. Under the arbitration agreement, which you can read in Section 7 here,
you will only be permitted to pursue claims against Truemed on an individual basis,
not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative action or proceeding,
and you will only be permitted to seek relief (including monetary, injunctive, and
declaratory relief) on an individual basis.
These Terms of Service describe a contractual relationship between us, Truemed, and you,
an individual customer of Truemed or of one of Truemed’s merchant partners (“Partners”).
Truemed provides its services to you through its website located at truemed.com (the
“Site”), through integrations with its Partners, and through its related services (collectively
the “Services”), subject to the following Terms of Service.
In connection with the Services, Truemed contracts with ApolloTechnologies, Inc. doing
business as OpenLoop and its affiliated entities (the “Medical Group”) to facilitate online
telehealth services provided by licensed practitioners from the Medical Group (each a
“Provider”) to Truemed customers who are their patients.
These Terms of Service do not apply to Truemed’s commercial relationships with its
Partners or to the Medical Group’s telehealth services to its patients.
By accessing Truemed’s Site or by using Truemed’s Services, your access to the Services are
subject to, and you agree to be bound by, (1) these Terms of Service, (2) Truemed’s Privacy
Policy, and (3) the Medical Group’s Notice of Privacy Practices. If you do not agree with
these Terms of Service, or those contained in Truemed’s Privacy Policy or the Medical
Group’s Notice of Privacy Practice, you should not access Truemed’s Site or use Truemed’s
Services or the Medical Group’s telehealth services.
1. Access and Use of the Services
1.1 Truemed’s Services and access to telehealth services from the Medical Group
Truemed provides payment integration and eligibility qualification Services to its customers
and to customers of its Partners. In connection with the Services, Truemed provides access
to Providers associated with the Medical Group, who use technology provided by Truemed
to issue Letters of Medical Necessity to eligible customers to facilitate the customers’
purchases of goods and services with HSA or FSA funds, as further described in Section 2
below.
1.2 Modifications to the Services
Truemed reserves the right to modify or discontinue its Services with or without notice. You
agree that Truemed will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification,
suspension or discontinuance of the Services.
1.3 Eligibility
To be eligible to use the Services, you must be at least 18 years old and a resident of the
United States or its territories. If you are under the age of 18, please do not attempt to
register with us at this Site or provide any personal information about yourself to us.
1.4 Changes to these Terms of Service.
Truemed reserves the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify portions of these
Terms of Service. In some cases, Truemed will post a notice of material changes on the Site
or send you notice through the Services, via e-mail or by another appropriate means of
electronic communication. Any such changes will become effective no earlier than fourteen
(14) days after they are posted or notice is sent, as applicable, except that changes
addressing new functions of the Service or changes made for legal reasons will be effective
immediately. Your continued use of the Service after the date any such changes become
effective constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Service.
2. Telehealth Services
2.1 Telehealth Services
Telemedicine involves the delivery of health care services using electronic communications,
information technology, or other means between a health care provider and a patient who
are not in the same physical location. By accepting these Terms of Service, you agree and
consent to Truemed, the Medical Group, the Medical Group’s Providers, and any other
health care organization(s) or provider(s) with whom we partner to provide the Services
sending you disclosures, notices, messages, reports, and other communications either in
writing or electronically, including without limitation through your account or by email. It is
your responsibility to monitor these communications. You acknowledge and agree that you
will not hold Truemed, the Medical Group, any Provider, or any other health care
organization(s) or provider(s) with whom we partner to offer the Services liable for any loss,
injury, or claim of any kind resulting from your failure to read these communications.
Moreover, you acknowledge and agree that no means of electronic transmission can be
guaranteed to be 100% secure. By accessing or using the Services, you agree to us
transmitting health and other information to you electronically and that any information
sent to or signed by you or us electronically shall be deemed equivalent to as if such
information was provided or signed in writing.
2.2 Your Relationship with Us
TRUEMED DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE, MEDICAL SERVICES, OR MEDICAL CARE.
Instead, Truemed contracts with the Medical Group, which operates a network of Providers
who provide telehealth services. The Medical Group’s Providers deliver healthcare services,
namely evaluation of eligibility for, and the issuance of, Letters of Medical Necessity via the
Truemed platform to Truemed customers who are their patients.
Truemed offers an online communication platform for these Providers and their patients to
connect via the Site through the use of asynchronous telecommunications technologies.
The Site facilitates communication between patients and Providers. Truemed does not own
or operate the Medical Group, or employ or supervise the Providers, but may provide
business support services to them. The services provided by the Providers is the sole
responsibility of the Medical Group, and the Providers who are independently contracted
or employed by the Medical Group. The Medical Group and its Providers, and not Truemed,
are responsible for the quality and appropriateness of the medical care they provide to you
when they evaluate your health information, assess your eligibility, and elect (or decline) to
issue a Letter of Medical Necessity to you, as well as for the security and integrity of any
communicative mediums used with you. Truemed does not make any representations or
warranties about the training or skill of any Providers who deliver services via the Site or
Services.
Moreover, any information or advice you receive from a Provider comes from the Provider
alone, and not from Truemed. Your interactions with Providers via our Site are not
intended to take the place of your relationship with your regular health care practitioners
or primary care physician. Neither Truemed nor any third party who may promote the Site
or Service or provide a link to the Service, including Truemed’s merchant Partners, shall be
liable for any professional advice obtained from a Provider via the Site or Service.
Truemed does not recommend or endorse any specific Providers, physicians, clinicians,
products, services, procedures, or merchant Partners. By using our Services, you
acknowledge and accept that your reliance on any Providers or information delivered by
the Providers via the Site or Service is solely at your own risk, and you assume full
responsibility for all risks associated herewith.
2.3 Medical Emergencies and Urgent Situations
THE TRUEMED SITE AND SERVICES ARE NOT FOR MEDICAL EMERGENCIES OR URGENT
SITUATIONS. IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, YOU SHOULD DIAL “911”
IMMEDIATELY.
You should not disregard or delay seeking medical advice based on anything that appears
or does not appear on the Site. If you believe you have an emergency, call 9-1-1
immediately. You should continue to consult with your primary provider and other
healthcare professionals as recommended. Always seek the advice of a physician or other
qualified healthcare provider concerning questions you have regarding a medical condition
and before stopping, starting, or modifying any treatment or modification.
2.4 Availability of the Services
Truemed, the Medical Group, and the Providers operate subject to state and federal
regulations, and the Services may not be available in your state. Access to and use of the
Site or the Services is limited exclusively to users located in States within the United States
where the Services are available. The Services are not available to users located outside the
United States. Accessing the Site or Services from jurisdictions where content is illegal, or
where we do not offer Services, is prohibited.
2.5 Consent to the Use of Telehealth Services
In order to use the Services, you will be required to review and agree to an informed
consent from the Medical Group regarding the use of telehealth (the “Patient Consent”)
that will be provided to you via the Service. You agree that Truemed is a third party
beneficiary of the Patient Consent and has the right to enforce it against you.
3. Conditions of Use
3.1 Your Obligations
When you provide information to Truemed or in connection with Truemed’s Services, you
agree to provide only true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself, and
you agree not to misrepresent your identity, your medical history, your objectives for your
purchase(s) from Partners, your state of residence, your account information, or any other
information to which you attest through the Services. You are fully responsible for
maintaining any and all records necessary to substantiate purchase eligibility under your
HSA/FSA plan or the rules and regulations of any applicable tax authority. You are also
responsible for making any necessary filings or submissions to the IRS or any other
applicable tax authority in connection with your purchases.
3.2 No Professional Advice Rendered
If you qualify to receive a Letter of Medical Necessity, your Letter of Medical Necessity
represents a Provider’s opinion, based on your attestation, that an exercise program,
supplement program, or other intervention is primarily for the purpose of treating,
preventing, curing, or mitigating the disease(s) which you identify. This Letter can assist you
with purchasing identified items with your HSA/FSA funds. As explained in Section 2.2
above, Truemed does not provide medical advice, medical services, or medical care. Nor
does Truemed provide tax advice; contact a tax accountant if you have questions regarding
tax laws as they pertain to tax exempt medical expenditures.
3.3 Access to Your Account
You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of the login credentials to your Truemed
account, and any other access credentials you may use to access your Truemed account.
You must notify us immediately if you believe your login credentials or the security of your
Truemed account has been compromised or stolen. You agree to follow reasonable
information security procedures to limit access to your password or other identifying
information to authorized individuals, which includes choosing passwords and other
credentials in a manner that will protect the security of your information. Your credentials
include your username and password to your Truemed account. You are also responsible
for maintaining the accuracy of the information in your Truemed account.
3.4 Your Conduct
You agree to not use Truemed’s Services to:
interfere with or disrupt the Site or the Services, or servers or networks connected
to the Services, or disobey any requirements, procedures, policies or regulations of
networks connected to the Services;
violate any applicable local, state, national or international law, or any regulations
having the force of law;
impersonate any person or entity, or falsely state or otherwise misrepresent your
affiliation with a person or entity;
solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 18;
harvest or collect email addresses or other contact information of other users from
the Services by electronic or other means for the purposes of sending unsolicited
emails or other unsolicited communications;
further or promote any criminal activity or enterprise or provide instructional
information about illegal activities;
obtain or attempt to access or otherwise obtain any materials or information
through any means not intentionally made available or provided for through the
Service; or
resell any Letters of Medical Necessity or other services you obtain from a Provider.
You also agree not to:
use any device, software, routine, file or other tool or technology, including but not
limited to any viruses, trojan horses, worms, time bombs or cancelbots, intended to
damage or interfere with the Services or to surreptitiously intercept or expropriate
any system, data or personal information from the Services; or
take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on
Truemed’s infrastructure, including but not limited to denial of service attacks,
"spam" or any other such unsolicited overload technique.
3.5 Payments
If you elect to use any part of the Services that are made available for a fee, you will be
required to provide Truemed with information regarding your credit card, debit card, or
other payment method. You represent and warrant to Truemed that such information is
true and that you are authorized to use the payment method concerned. You agree to pay
the amount that is specified in accordance with these Terms of Service.
If you dispute any charges, you must advise Truemed within sixty (60) days after the date
that Truemed charges you. You shall be responsible for all taxes associated with the
Services other than U.S. taxes based on Truemed’s net income.
You acknowledge and agree that Truemed provides payment processing services to certain
Partners. If you are using Truemed’s Services to purchase a Partner’s products or services,
you acknowledge and agree that Truemed may process your transaction on behalf of the
merchant Partner. If you are referred to the Services by one of Truemed’s Partners in order
to qualify for reimbursement for your purchase of that Partner’s products or services, you
acknowledge and agree that Truemed may share certain information with that Partner
about your eligibility for a Letter of Medical Necessity. More information about Truemed’s
Partners is available in Truemed’s Privacy Policy.
3.6 Refunds and other assurances
Truemed does not offer refunds except in the limited circumstances described below. We
strive to provide great customer service, so if you have any concerns about Truemed or the
Services we provided, we encourage you to contact us at support@truemed.com.
Please contact us in the event that the Letter of Medical Necessity you receive is rejected by
your HSA/FSA plan administrator. In some circumstances, we may be able to work with the
Medical Group and your Provider to enable them to provide you with an updated Letter of
Medical Necessity (e.g., using the administrator’s form). If we are unable to work with the
Medical Group and your Provider to resolve your administrator’s concerns, you may be
eligible for the following refund or reimbursement:
If you signed up for the Services directly through Truemed, and not through one of
Truemed’s merchant Partners, you are eligible for a refund of the price you paid to
Truemed for your Letter of Medical Necessity. However, we may decline to issue a
refund if we suspect that you have violated these Terms of Service.
If you utilized Truemed’s Services via an integration with or referral from one of
Truemed’s merchant Partners, i.e., through a payment integration provided by
Truemed, please contact the applicable Partner for a refund of the product or
service you purchased. If your Letter of Medical Necessity is rejected by your plan
administrator, we’ll do our best to make you whole for the tax savings you would
have realized. In these circumstances, we typically offer 40% of the corresponding
purchase price, subject to our receipt of any relevant documentation that we
reasonably request. Any such payments are made solely at the discretion of
Truemed and may be based upon the tax savings that you would have actually
realized. Without limiting the foregoing, we may decline to offer payment if we
suspect any that you have violated these Terms of Service or that the corresponding
purchase was not eligible for purchase under your HSA or FSA plan.
Please email support@truemed.com if you have any questions or need assistance.
3.7 Personal Use Only
Unless otherwise expressly authorized herein or in the Services, you agree not to display,
distribute, license, perform, publish, reproduce, duplicate, copy, create derivative works
from, modify, sell, resell, exploit, transfer or upload for any commercial purposes, any
portion of the Services, use of the Services, or access to the Services. Truemed’s Services
are for your personal use only.
4. Intellectual Property Rights
You acknowledge and agree that the Services may contain content or features (“Service
Content”) that are protected by copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other
proprietary rights and laws. Except as expressly authorized by Truemed, you agree not to
modify, copy, frame, scrape, rent, lease, loan, sell, distribute or create derivative works
based on the Services or the Service Content, in whole or in part.
In connection with your use of the Services you will not engage in or use any data mining,
robots, scraping or similar data gathering or extraction methods. If you are blocked by
Truemed from accessing the Services (including by blocking your IP address), you agree not
to implement any measures to circumvent such blocking (e.g., by masking your IP address).
Any use of the Services or the Service Content other than as specifically authorized herein
is strictly prohibited. The technology and software underlying the Service or distributed in
connection therewith are the property of Truemed, our affiliates and our Partners (the
“Software”). You agree not to copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer,
reverse assemble or otherwise attempt to discover any source code, sell, assign,
sublicense, or otherwise transfer any right in the Software. Any rights not expressly granted
herein are reserved by Truemed.
Truemed’s name and logos are trademarks and/or service marks of Truemed (collectively
the “Truemed Trademarks”). Other company, product, and service names and logos used
and displayed via the Services may be trademarks or service marks of their respective
owners, who may or may not endorse or be affiliated with or connected to Truemed.

implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any of Truemed’s
Trademarks displayed on the Services, without our prior written permission in each
instance. All goodwill generated from the use of Truemed’s Trademarks will inure to
Truemed’s exclusive benefit.
5. Partners and Other Third-Party Websites
The Services may provide, or third parties may provide, links or other access to other sites
and resources on the Internet. Truemed has no control over such sites and resources and
is not responsible for and does not endorse such sites and resources. You further
acknowledge and agree that Truemed will not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly,
for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or
reliance on any content, events, goods or services available on or through any such site or
resource. Any dealings you have with third parties found while using the Services are
between you and the third party, and you agree that Truemed is not liable for any loss or

6. Indemnity and Release; Limitation of Liability
You agree to release, indemnify and hold Truemed and its officers, employees, directors
and agents harmless from any from any and all losses, damages, expenses, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, rights, claims, actions of any kind and injury (including death)
arising out of or relating to your use of the Services, your connection to the Services, your
use, non-use, or mis-use of any products or services purchased from a Truemed merchant
Partner in connection with the Services, your use, non-use, or mis-use of any products or
services from the Medical Group, your violation of these Terms of Service, or your violation
of any rights of another. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code
Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor
does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if
known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” If you are a
resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.
YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT TRUEMED WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES
FOR LOSS OF PROFITS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF
GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF TRUEMED HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT,
NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, RESULTING FROM: (I) THE USE OR THE
INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE; (II) USE, NON-USE, OR MIS-USE OF ANY PRODUCTS OR
SERVICES PURCHASED FROM A TRUEMED MERCHANT PARTNER IN CONNECTION WITH THE
SERVICES; (III) USE, NON-USE, OR MIS-USE OF ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES FROM THE
MEDICAL GROUP; (IV) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES
RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION OR SERVICES PURCHASED OR
OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED OR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO THROUGH OR
FROM THE SERVICE; (V) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR
TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (VI) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE
SERVICE; OR (VII) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE SERVICE. IN NO EVENT WILL
TRUEMED’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR CAUSES OF ACTION
EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TRUEMED IN THE LAST SIX (6) MONTHS, OR, IF
GREATER, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE
LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO
YOU.
7. Arbitration Agreement & Class Action Waiver
THIS SECTION AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE AGREEING TO
THESE TERMS OF SERVICE BY USING THE TRUEMED SERVICES.
7.1 Mandatory Arbitration
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your visit to the Site, your use of the Services;
your use, non-use, or misuse of any products or services purchased from a Truemed
merchant Partner in connection with the Services; your use, non-use, or misuse of any
products or services from the Medical Group, any product offered or provided by or
through Truemed; or otherwise arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service or your
relationship with Truemed that cannot be resolved directly between you and Truemed shall
be resolved by binding arbitration under the Consumer Arbitration Rules ("the Consumer
Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), rather than in court.
Except as otherwise explicitly provided in this Section, this broadly includes: any claims
based in contract, statute, tort, fraud, consumer rights, misrepresentation, equity or any
other legal theory; initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims and third-party claims; federal,
state and local claims; and claims which arose before the date of these Terms of Service.
The Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") and federal arbitration law apply to these Terms of
Service. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and court review of an arbitration award is
limited, but an arbitrator can award an individual the same damages and relief as a court
and must apply and follow these Terms of Service as a court would. The arbitrator shall
apply applicable statutes of limitations and honor privilege rules. Any judgment on the
award rendered by the arbitrator will be final and may be entered in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT YOUR CONSENT TO ARBITRATION, YOU WOULD
HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY.
Either you or we can initiate arbitration through AAA, an alternative dispute resolution
provider, or by filing a motion to compel arbitration of claims filed in court. Regardless of
who elected arbitration or how arbitration was elected, the party asserting the claim (i.e.,
the party seeking money damages or other relief from a court or an arbitrator) is
responsible for starting the arbitration proceeding. If AAA cannot serve, a court with
jurisdiction shall select the arbitrator, who will apply the AAA rules and procedures
specified in this Section. Any arbitration will be governed by the then-current Consumer
Rules of the AAA, and its Procedures for the Resolution of Disputes through Document
Submission ("Document Submission Procedures"). The Consumer Rules are available at the
AAA website: www.adr.org. The Document Submission Procedures are included in the
Consumer Rules. Your arbitration filing fees will be governed by the Consumer Rules. If it is
determined by the arbitrator that you cannot afford such fees, Truemed will pay all
arbitration fees and expenses. The arbitration will be conducted solely based on written
submissions. The arbitration will not require any personal appearance by the parties or
witnesses unless the arbitrator determines that a telephonic or in-person conference or
hearing is necessary based on the request of one or more of the parties. Disputes or
controversies about the validity, enforceability, coverage or scope of this Section or any
part thereof are for a court and not an arbitrator to decide; however, disputes or
controversies about the Terms of Service as a whole are for an arbitrator and not a court to
decide.
7.2 Class Action Waiver
You and Truemed each agree that any dispute under these Terms of Service, including any
arbitration, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated or
representative action. To the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration will be
joined or consolidated with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be
litigated or arbitrated on a class-action or private attorney general basis or to utilize class
action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a
purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. No
court or arbitrator shall have the authority to issue any relief that applies to any person or
entity other thanTruemed and/or you individually.
If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any
right to a jury trial. Even if all parties have opted to litigate a claim in court, a party may
elect arbitration with respect to any claim made by a new party or any claim later asserted
by a party in that or any related or unrelated lawsuit (including a claim initially asserted on
an individual basis but modified to be asserted on a class, representative or multi-party
basis). Nothing in that litigation shall constitute a waiver of any rights under this Section.
You and Truemed each agree that any disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or
concerning the validity of intellectual property rights will not be subject to binding
arbitration under this Section. In addition, pursuant to the Consumer Rules, any party may
proceed with their individual claims in small claims court if that option is available in the
applicable jurisdiction and the amount in controversy falls within the small claims court's
jurisdictional limits; but if that action is transferred, removed or appealed to a different
court, arbitration can be elected.
If any portion of this Section is inconsistent with the Consumer Rules or other provisions of
these Terms of Service, this Section shall govern. This Section shall survive termination or
expiration of these Terms of Service and any bankruptcy by you, to the extent consistent
with applicable bankruptcy law. No portion of this Section may be amended absent a
written agreement signed by all parties. If any portion of this Section is deemed invalid or
unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Section, except that: (A)
If the Class Action Waiver is limited, voided or found unenforceable, then this Section
(except for this sentence) shall be null and void with respect to such proceeding, subject to
the right to appeal the limitation or invalidation of the Class Action Waiver. The parties
acknowledge and agree that under no circumstances will a class action be arbitrated; and
(B) if a claim is brought seeking public injunctive relief and a court determines that the
restrictions in the Class Action Waiver or elsewhere in this Section prohibiting the arbitrator
from awarding relief on behalf of third parties are unenforceable with respect to such claim
(and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted), the claim for
public injunctive relief will be determined in court and any individual claims seeking
monetary relief will be arbitrated. In such a case the parties will request that the court stay
the claim for public injunctive relief until the arbitration award pertaining to individual relief
has been entered in court. No arbitration award involving the parties will have any
preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute involving anyone who is not a party to
the arbitration, nor will an arbitration award in prior disputes involving other parties have a
preclusive effect in an arbitration between the parties to this Section.
8. Termination
You agree that Truemed, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or
any part thereof) or use of the Services and remove and discard any content within the
Services, for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if Truemed 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 Services may be referred to appropriate law enforcement
authorities. Truemed may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing
the Services, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of
your access to the Services under any provision of these Terms of Service may be effected
without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that Truemed 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 Services. Further, you agree that Truemed
will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the
Services.
9. Privacy

use of personal data as outlined therein. When we operate as a HIPAA “Business Associate”
to the Medical Group or a Provider, we will use any PHI as set forth in the Medical Group’s
Notice of Privacy Practices.
10. E-Sign Consent
You agree to the use of electronic records and signatures in association with the Services.
Your agreement and intent to use electronic records and signatures applies to all
transactions you enter into via the Services. If you do not wish to use electronic records and
signatures, do not use the Services. You may have a legal right to receive certain

11. Miscellaneous Provisions
11.1 Enforceability and Governing Law
These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and Truemed and
govern your use of the Services, superseding any prior agreements between you and
Truemed with respect to the Services. You also may be subject to additional terms and
conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or third party services, third party content
or third party software.
Except as provided in the Arbitration Agreement (Section 7), The failure of Truemed 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 an
arbitrator, arbitral panel, or 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.
Except as provided in the Arbitration Agreement (Section 7), these Terms of Service will be
governed by the laws of the State of New York 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 Truemed agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts located within New York, New York.
11.2 Statute of Limitations
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 Services, these Terms of Service, or Truemed’s Privacy
Policy must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be
forever barred.
11.3 Assignment
You may not assign these Terms of Service without the prior written consent of Truemed,
but Truemed may assign or transfer these Terms of Service, in whole or in part, without
restriction.
11.4 No Third-Party Beneficiaries
These Terms of Service are an agreement between you and Truemed, and the Medical
Group is a third party beneficiary to extent applicable. No other individual has any rights or
obligations under the Terms of Service.
11.5 Electronic Copies and Notices
A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form will be
admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this
agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business
documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. Notices to
