These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern the agreement between Rume Health (hereinafter, the “Clinic,” “us,” or “we” or words of similar import) and you (alternatively, a “User”) regarding your use of www.rumehealth.com and any other Clinic related websites (collectively, the “Website”) and any of the Clinic’s applications, online services, mobile applications, application programming interfaces (APIs) and any other related services (together with the Website, the “Services”).  If you are using the Services on behalf of another individual as that individual’s parent or legal guardian, then you are agreeing to be bound by these Terms on behalf of that individual.  As between you and us, the Services are owned and operated or offered by the Clinic.

How To Handle Disputes

 

General.  If a dispute arises between you and us, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly.  Accordingly, you and the Clinic agree that we will resolve any claim or controversy at law or equity that arises out of these Terms or use of our Services (a “Claim”) in accordance with one of the subsections below or as we and you otherwise agree in writing.  Before resorting to these alternatives, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to seek a resolution by going to Customer Support.  We will consider reasonable requests to resolve the dispute through alternative dispute resolution procedures, such as mediation or arbitration, as alternatives to litigation.  Other than those matters listed in Section 7, you and the Clinic agree to seek resolution of the dispute only through arbitration of that dispute in accordance with the terms of this Section 7, and not litigate any dispute in court. Arbitration means that the dispute will be resolved by a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury.

 

Exclusions from Arbitration.  YOU AND THE CLINIC AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM FILED BY YOU OR BY US IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR BY US RELATED TO PROTECTION OF OUR OR ANY OF OUR LICENSOR’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ARE NOT SUBJECT TO THE ARBITRATION TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 7.

 

RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER WITHIN 30 DAYS.  IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THE BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN THIS SECTION 7, YOU MUST NOTIFY US IN WRITING WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT. YOUR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION MUST INCLUDE: (1) YOUR NAME, (2) YOUR ADDRESS, AND (3) A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH US THROUGH ARBITRATION.

 

Class Action Waiver.  ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR COURT, WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR AS A NAMED OR UNNAMED MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, UNLESS BOTH YOU AND THE CLINIC SPECIFICALLY AGREE TO DO SO IN WRITING FOLLOWING INITIATION OF THE ARBITRATION.

 

Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding; Selection of Arbitrator.  If you or the Clinic elect to resolve your dispute through arbitration, the party initiating the arbitration proceeding must initiate it with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The terms of this Section 7 govern in the event they conflict with the rules of the arbitration organization selected by the parties.

 

Arbitration Procedures.  The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.  The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party.  Such award will be binding and final, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will we be liable to you for any of your attorney fees.

 

Location of Arbitration.  You or the Clinic may initiate arbitration in the State of California.

 

Severability.  If any clause within this Section 7 (other than the Class Action Waiver clause) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Section 7 and the remainder of this Section 7 will be given full force and effect.  If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Section 7, except for this Section, will be unenforceable and the dispute will be decided by a court and IN THAT INSTANCE, YOU AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY, TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW.

 

Survival.  This Section 7 shall survive any termination of the Terms.

 

General Provisions

 

Updates to the Terms and Privacy Policy.

• Right to Update.  We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change, modify, add or remove portions of these Terms and our Privacy Policy at any time by posting the amended Terms or Privacy Policy through the Services.  You may also be given additional notice, such as an email message or messaging within the Services, of any changes.  You will be deemed to have accepted such changes by continuing to use the Services.  Except as otherwise stated, all amended terms shall automatically be effective when they are posted.  We may also revise other policies, codes or rules at any time and the new versions will be available on the Website or otherwise through the Services.  No amendment to the Terms or Privacy Policy shall apply to any dispute of which we had actual notice before the date of the amendment.

• Seeking Consent.  If we revise these Terms or the Privacy Policy and seek your consent to be bound by such revised Terms or revised Privacy Policy and you do not agree to be bound by such revised Terms or revised Privacy Policy before using the Services again, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary, we reserve the right to terminate your use of the Services.

• Disagreement with Terms.  If at any time you do not agree to any provision of the then-current version of our Terms, the Privacy Policy or any other Clinic policy, rule or code of conduct relating to your use of the Services, your right to use the Services will immediately terminate, and you must immediately stop using the Services.

 

Severability.  If any provision of these Terms or the Privacy Policy is found invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective solely to the extent of such determination of invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality or enforceability thereof in any other manner or jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of the Terms (or as applicable, the Privacy Policy), which will continue to be in full force and effect.

 

Assignment.  We may assign any of our rights or delegate any of our obligations under these Terms, in whole or in part, to any person or entity at any time without your consent.  You may not assign or delegate any rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent, and any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section is null and void.

 

Entire Agreement.  These Terms, together with any supplemental policies, the Privacy Policy and any other documents expressly incorporated by reference herein, contain the entire agreement between us and you with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof, whether electronic, oral or written, or whether established by custom, practice, policy or precedent.

 

No Waiver.  Our failure to require or enforce strict performance by you of any provision of these Terms or the Privacy Policy or failure to exercise any right under them shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of our right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance.  The express waiver by us of any provision, condition or requirement of these Terms or the Privacy Policy shall not constitute a waiver of any future obligation to comply with such provision, condition or requirement.  Except as expressly and specifically set forth in these Terms, no representations, statements, consents, waivers or other acts or omissions by us shall be deemed a modification of these Terms nor legally binding, unless documented in physical writing, hand signed by you and our duly appointed officer.

 

Notices.  We may notify you via postings on the Website or via email or any other communications means through contact information you provide to us.  All notices given by you or required from you under these Terms or the Privacy Policy shall be in writing and addressed to the address in this Section.  Any notices that you provide without compliance with this Section shall have no legal effect.

Equitable Remedies.  You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made under these Terms to the Clinic are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which may irreparably harm us and which cannot be replaced by monetary damages alone, so that we shall be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief (without the obligations of posting any bond or surety or proof of damages) in the event of any breach or anticipatory breach by you.  You irrevocably waive all rights to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, or to enjoin or restrain the operation of the Services, exploitation of any advertising or other materials issued in connection therewith or exploitation of the Services or any content or other material used or displayed through the Services and agree to limit your claims to claims for monetary damages, limited by Section 7.

 

Force Majeure.  The Clinic shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control, including, without limitation, any failure to perform hereunder due to unforeseen circumstances or cause beyond our control, such as acts of God, war, terrorism, public health emergencies, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, strikes, shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.

 

Choice of Law. The Terms and Privacy Policy shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, notwithstanding its conflicts of law provisions.
