M&D Integrations understands the importance of confidentiality and privacy regarding your health information. M&D Integrations will act in accordance with HIPAA to protect your private health information.

M&D Integrations does not provide any medical services, including via the Sites and Services. Rather, M&D Integrations provides a technology platform for you to access a health care provider employed or contracted with M&D Integrations physicians or similar affiliated professional entities and obtain access to additional information, which you may or may not choose to utilize in planning your health care and wellness. The health and wellness resources made available through our Services are not a substitute for direct in-person health care services in all cases. The decision to focus on diagnosis, treatment recommendations, or both, rests with you and the health care provider. You understand that by coordinating and in certain cases consulting with M&D Integrations or affiliate health care provider through the Services, you are not entering into a provider-patient relationship with M&D Integrations itself. By accepting the Terms of Use, you agree and consent to M&D Integrations, M&D Integrations affiliates, or health care providers sending you disclosures, notices, messages, reports, and other communications. It is your responsibility to monitor these communications. You acknowledge and agree that you will not hold us or any M&D Integrations affiliate liable for any loss, injury, or claim of any kind resulting from your failure to read these communications or for your failure to comply with any treatment recommendations contained in these communications.

In some cases, a M&D Integrations physician or affiliated health care provider may use the Services to provide advice or treatment to you. A health care provider consulting with you through the Services may not have the benefit of information that would be obtained by examining you in person and observing your physical condition, in each instance. Therefore, the health care provider may not be aware of facts or information that may affect his or her opinion regarding a potential diagnosis or treatment recommendation. To reduce the risk to you of this limitation, M&D Integrations strongly encourages you to provide all relevant information and discuss any and all diagnosis and treatment options with a health care provider. Moreover, a health care provider utilizing M&D Integrations may be limited by state law in prescribing certain medications to you without first conducting an in-person physical examination. By deciding to engage the Services, you acknowledge and agree that you are aware of these limitations and agree to assume the risk of these limitations. Furthermore, you agree and accept that:

• any diagnosis you may receive is limited and, in some cases, provisional;
• the health care services are not intended, in all cases, to replace a full medical evaluation or an in-person visit with a health care provider;
• a health care provider acting through the Services may not have important information that is usually obtained through a “hands-on” physical examination; and
• the absence of a physical examination may affect the health care provider’s ability to diagnose any potential condition, disease or injury.

For more information regarding the health care services offered by health care providers utilizing the Services, please visit mdintegrations.com.

Except for specific communications received from your M&D Integrations physician or affiliate health care organizations and providers, none of the Content you receive through the Sites should be considered medical advice.

Although certain parts of the Sites are accessible by any individual, you are obligated to register with M&D Integrations in order to access the Services. The Services are available only to users who have registered with M&D Integrations and to other persons affiliated with M&D Integrations who have been granted accounts with usernames and passwords (“Secure Users”). If you are a Secure User, you agree to provide information that is accurate, complete and correct, and to accurately maintain and update any information about yourself that you have provided to M&D Integrations. If you do not maintain such information, or M&D Integrations has reasonable grounds to suspect as much, M&D Integrations has the right to suspend or terminate your account and your use of the Services. You agree to keep confidential your username and password and to exit from your Secure User account at the end of each session. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account and for maintaining the confidentiality of your password. You are responsible for changing your password promptly if you think it has been compromised. You may not transfer or share your password with anyone, or create more than one account.

You acknowledge and agree that:

Your permission to use the Sites automatically terminates if you violate these Terms of Use. M&D Integrations may terminate or suspend any of the rights granted by these Terms of Use and your access to and use of the Sites or Services with or without prior notice, for any reason, and at any time. The following provisions survive the expiration or termination of these Terms of Use for any reason whatsoever: Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation of Liability; Indemnification; Governing Law, Dispute Resolution, Venue, Severability of Provisions; No Waiver; and Assignment. After such termination, M&D Integrations will have no further obligation to provide the Services, except to the extent an affiliated professional entity is obligated to provide you access to your health records or is required to provide you with continuing care under applicable legal, ethical and professional obligations to you.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW AND EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION, IN NO EVENT WILL M&D INTEGRATIONS, ITS RELATED PERSONS OR ENTITIES OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY PARTY FOR ANY CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, LOSSES, COSTS OR DAMAGES UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, WHETHER IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL OR BODILY INJURY OR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, INCLUDING DEATH, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCESS, USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SITES OR ANY SERVICES PROVIDED THROUGH THE SITES, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SITES. THIS IS TRUE EVEN IF M&D INTEGRATIONS OR RELATED PERSONS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR LOSSES. 

To the extent that we may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any implied warranty or limit liabilities, the scope and duration of such warranty and the extent of our liability will be the minimum permitted under such applicable law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless FAT OFF CLINIC, M&D Integrations, its affiliates (including without limitation all affiliated professionals and professional entities), subsidiaries, and their directors, officers, employees, contractors, licensors, representatives, proprietors, partners, shareholders, servants, principals, agents, assigns, and attorneys harmless from and against any and all third-party suits, actions, claims, proceedings, damages, settlements, judgments, injuries, liabilities, obligations, losses, risks, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, litigation expenses, and accounting fees), relating to or arising from, or alleged to arise from, your use of materials or features available on the Site.

All parts of these Terms of Use apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.

The invalidity of part of these Terms of Use will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. The section headings are for convenience only and do not have any force or effect.

No waiver by M&D Integrations of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure by M&D Integrations to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

These remedies are in addition to any other remedies we may have at law or in equity.
