8. Exclusive Certainly Discounts
8.1. Exclusive Certainly Discounts. Exclusive Certainly
Discounts (“Discount Agreements” or “Agreements” or “Agreement”) are
distributed by Certainly and are redeemable for services offered by the
Provider identified on the Agreement. The Provider is fully and solely
responsible for the care and quality of all services it provides to you and for
any and all injuries, illnesses, damages, claims, liabilities and costs
(“Liabilities”) it may cause you to suffer, directly or indirectly, in full or
in part, whether related to the use or redemption of an Agreement or not. You
waive and release Certainly and its subsidiaries, affiliates, partners,
officers, directors, employees, and agents from any Liabilities arising from or
related to any act or omission of a Provider in connection with your use of an
Agreement or the services a Provider provides in connection with the Agreement.
By purchasing, viewing a mobile version, printing, accepting,
using, or attempting to use any Agreement, you agree specifically to the terms
on the Agreement and any additional deal-specific terms advertised in
connection with and on the Agreement at the time of purchase and these Terms of
Service. These rules apply to all Agreements that we make available, unless
otherwise disclosed in connection with the purchase of a particular Agreement,
and except as otherwise required by law. In the event of a conflict between
these rules and the terms advertised in connection with and on the Agreement at
the time of purchase, the terms advertised in connection with and on the
Agreement at the time of purchase will control. Any attempt to redeem an
Agreement in violation of these Terms of Service will render the Agreement
void.
Agreements are not redeemable for cash, unless required by law.
Unauthorized or unlawful reproduction, resale, modification, or trade of
Agreements is prohibited. Pricing relating to certain Provider Offerings on the
Site may change at any time at Certainly’s discretion, without notice.
Agreements can be paid for at two distinct times: (i) at the
time of booking the appointment and (ii) after receiving medical treatment.
8.2. Agreements Paid for at Time of Booking. When an Agreement
is paid at the time of booking the appointment, an Agreement has two separate
values: (i) the amount paid and (ii) the promotional value. The promotional
value is the additional value beyond the amount paid. For example, if you pay
$20 for an Agreement that entitles you to $50 of services, the amount paid is
$20 (this amount does not expire until it is used) and the promotional value is
$30 (this amount expires on the date stated on the Agreement unless expiration
of the promotional value is prohibited by law). The Company is responsible for
permitting you to redeem the Agreement for at least the amount paid, even after
the promotional value has expired. The promotional value of an Agreement may
not be combined with other offers and no portion of its value is intended to
cover tax or gratuity. Agreements are not reloadable, meaning that the amount
paid of the Agreement cannot be increased. Agreements are not transferable.
8.3. Agreements Paid for After Receiving Medical Care. When a
customer chooses to pay for the Agreement after receiving medical care, an
Agreement has one value: (i) the promotional value. After receiving medical
treatment, the Customer presents proof of the Agreement to the Provider, and
the Customer’s credit card is charged the total cost of care discounted by the
promotional value. The amount of care is paid to the Company, and the Company
transfers this amount to the Provider.
The promotional value expires on the date stated on the
Agreement unless expiration of the promotional value is prohibited by law. The
promotional value of a traditional Agreement may not be combined with other
offers and no portion of its value is intended to cover tax or gratuity.
Agreements are not transferable.
8.4. Trade-In Program. Agreements paid in full at the time of
booking the appointment that are not used for the original appointment can be
used to pay for treatments or services at other Providers that accept Exclusive
Certainly Discounts. An unused Agreement can be used as a credit equal to the
amount paid for the Agreement or another amount specified by Certainly. The
promotional value offered at one Provider is never redeemable for services from
another Provider. You must have an account to participate.
For an Agreement to be eligible for Trade-In
● Certainly, in its sole discretion, must designate the Agreement as eligible.
● The code on the Agreement must have not been viewed or the Agreement must have not been redeemed.
8.5. Refunds. The Company will not refund any Agreement and all
sales are final, unless otherwise stated in the Fine Print.

You may accept or decline any such trial in your sole discretion. Any Beta
Services will be clearly designated as Beta, pilot, limited release, developer
preview, non-production, or by a description of similar import. Beta Services
are provided for evaluation purposes and not for production use, are not

12. Indemnification.
12.1. Indemnification. You
shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Certainly Health, our licensors and
affiliates, and our and their respective directors, officers, employees,
contractors, agents, and representatives, from and against any and all claims,
demands, suits, causes of action, proceedings, liabilities, losses, costs, or
expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ and expert fees
and costs of investigation): (a) arising out of, in connection with, or
resulting from your access to or use of the Site or Services, your violation of
any provision of this Agreement, or any activity related to your accessing the
Site or Services, including without limitation, negligent or wrongful conduct;
(b) arising out of the receipt or provision of professional or medical services
offered, sold, purchased, or arranged via the Certainly Health platform; (c)
alleging that User Data or your use of the Services infringes or
misappropriates the intellectual property rights of a third party; (d) alleging
that User Data or your use of the Services violates applicable law; (e) arising
from any data or security breach caused by you; and/or (f) related to a dispute
between you and such third party (whether you are a provider or a patient) (an
"Indemnified Claim"), and you shall indemnify us for any damages,
attorney fees and costs as a result of, or for any amounts paid by us in
respect of an Indemnified Claim. We reserve the right, at your expense, to
assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to
indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate with us in asserting
any available defenses.
12.2. Scope of
Indemnification. For purposes of clarity, these indemnification obligations
apply to your use of the Site, along with your use of the Site’s content and
Services, other than as expressly authorized in this Terms, and your use of any
information obtained from the Site or any information you provide to the Site.
13. Limitation of
Liability.
13.1. LIMITATIONS.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER WE NOR OUR LICENSORS SHALL BE LIABLE WITH RESPECT TO
ANY SERVICES AND/OR UNDER CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER
LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR: ANY AMOUNTS IN EXCESS OF THE APPLICABLE FEES
PAID DURING THE THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE FIRST EVENT,
ACTION, OR OMISSION GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM FOR WHICH ANY CREDITS OR DAMAGES
ARE PAID OR HELD RECOVERABLE HEREUNDER. FOR CLARIFICATION, ANY SERVICE CREDITS
PAID BY US SHALL REDUCE OUR LIABILITY CAP ON A DOLLAR-FOR-DOLLAR BASIS AND
SHALL NOT BE DEEMED OR TREATED AS AN ADMISSION OF LIABILITY. ALL OF THE
FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL
PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. YOU MAY ONLY BRING A CLAIM AGAINST US WITHIN SIX
(6) MONTHS FROM THE DATE THE PARTICULAR CLAIM ACCRUED OR THE APPLICABLE CAUSE
OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED. If you are a resident of California, you specifically
waive California Civil Code §1542, which states, “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.”
13.2. EXCLUSION OF
CONSEQUENTIAL AND RELATED DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL WE HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO
YOU FOR ANY BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES OR FOR ANY
INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, COVER OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES HOWEVER
CAUSED, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR UNDER ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, AND
WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE
FOREGOING DISCLAIMERS SHALL NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE
LAW. HOWEVER, IN SUCH EVENT, YOU AGREE THAT SUCH LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY ARE
REASONABLE, AND ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS FOR THE SCOPE OF THE SERVICES AND THE
FEES CHARGED TO YOU. YOU UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE
TO OFFER THE SERVICES TO YOU WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS.
14. Term and Termination.
14.1. Term. This Agreement
commences on the Effective Date and continues until all User subscriptions
granted in accordance with this Agreement and/or a Services Agreement have
expired or been terminated or, if you do not have a subscription, until you discontinue
use of the Site and Services.
14.2. Term of Provider
Subscriptions. Provider subscriptions commence on the start date specified in
the applicable Services Agreement and continue for the Subscription Period

the Services Agreement. The pricing during any such renewal term shall be the
same as that during the prior term unless otherwise indicated in the Services
Agreement.
14.3. Termination. A party
may terminate this Agreement for cause: (a) upon thirty (30) days’ written
notice to the other party of a material breach if such breach remains uncured
at the expiration of such period; or (b) if the other party becomes the subject
of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency,
receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors. We may
also terminate this Agreement for any reason upon thirty (30) days written
notice to you.
14.4. Payment upon

pay any fees payable to us for the period prior to the effective date of

(Disclaimer), 11 (Indemnification), 12 (Limitation of Liability), 13.4 (Refund
or Payment upon Termination), and 15 (Miscellaneous) shall survive any termination
or expiration of this Agreement.

including the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), and to terminate the
accounts of repeat infringers in accordance with our DMCA Policy. Trademark

16. Miscellaneous.
16.1. Notices. You agree
that we may provide you with notice, including changes to this Agreement, by
email, regular mail or postings in your Account.
16.2. Governing Law; Forum.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of New York, disregarding any conflict-of-laws rules which may
direct the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. You agree that
venue for all actions relating in any manner to this Agreement, shall be in a
federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in New York. Each
party to these terms waives any objection based on forum non conveniens and
waives any objection to venue of any action instituted to the extent that an
action is brought in the courts identified above.
16.3. Export Compliance.
The Services, other technology we make available, and derivatives thereof may
be subject to export laws and regulations of the United States and other
jurisdictions. Each party represents that it is not named on any U.S. government
denied-party list. You shall not permit Users to access or use Services in a
U.S.-embargoed country (including, without limitation, Cuba, Iran, North Korea,
Sudan or Syria) or in violation of any U.S. export law or regulation.
16.4. Relationship of the
Parties. The parties are independent contractors. This Agreement does not
create a partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, fiduciary or employment
relationship between the parties.
16.5. No Third-Party
Beneficiaries. There are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.
16.6. Severability and
Waiver. If any provision hereof is declared invalid by a court of competent
jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such
invalidity so that the remainder of that provision and all remaining provisions
will continue in full force and effect. The failure of Certainly Health to
enforce any right or provision in the Agreement will not constitute a waiver of
such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by Certainly Health
in writing. No waiver by us of any term or condition set forth herein 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 of us to assert a right or
provision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
16.7. Attorney Fees. You
shall pay on demand all of our reasonable attorney fees and other costs
incurred by us to enforce any rights under this Agreement, including without
limitation, to collect any fees or charges due us under this Agreement
following your breach of Sections 6.1 or 6.2 (Payment).
16.8. Assignment. You may
not any of your rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or
otherwise, without the prior written consent of Certainly Health (not to be
unreasonably withheld), except in connection with a merger, acquisition,
corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of your assets
not involving a direct competitor of Certainly Health. Any attempted assignment
in contravention of this Section shall be null and void. Subject to the
foregoing, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties,
their respective successors and permitted assigns.
16.9. Interpretation. No
provision shall be construed against a party by reason of the fact that such
party or its legal counsel drafted that provision, notwithstanding any rule of
law or any legal decision to the contrary. For purposes of interpreting this
Agreement: (a) the terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereto,” “herewith”, “hereunder,”
“hereinafter,” and similar terms shall refer to this Agreement as a whole; (b)
the terms “includes” and “including” shall mean “include[ing], without
limitation”; (c) references to Sections in any particular Attachment shall
refer to Sections in that same Attachment, unless otherwise specified therein;
and (d) headings contained herein are for convenience of reference only and
shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement. For purposes of this
Agreement, whenever the context requires, the singular number will include the
plural, and vice versa.
16.10. Entire Agreement.
This Agreement, including all exhibits and addenda hereto and all Services
Agreements, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes
all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written
or oral, concerning its subject matter. No modification, amendment, or waiver
of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and
either signed or accepted electronically by the party against whom the
modification, amendment or waiver is to be asserted. However, to the extent of
any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions in the body of this
Agreement and any exhibit or addendum hereto or any Services Agreement, the
terms of such exhibit, addendum or Services Agreement shall prevail.
Notwithstanding any language to the contrary therein, no terms or conditions
stated in Your Services Agreement shall be incorporated into or form any part
of this Agreement, and all such terms or conditions shall be null and void.
