Terms of Service

Updated on

October 20, 2022

Highnote Health, Inc., (“Highnote”, “us”, “we” and “our”), provides a messaging and communications service called “Highnote” which provides an easy-to-use cloud-based platform for connecting healthcare professionals in order to unlock otherwise siloed knowledge to drive better health outcomes. With the Site and App, Highnote is transforming how healthcare professionals seek help from colleagues for specialty expertise and new knowledge.

Highnote is offered through our website (the “Site”) and our application for mobile devices, tablet computers and similar devices (the “App”). Collectively the Site, App and any services therein provided are referred to herein as the “Services.” Please read carefully the following terms and conditions (“Terms”) and our Privacy Policy.

1. APPLICATION OF TERMS.

THESE TERMS GOVERN YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES. BY CLICKING ON THE “SIGN UP” BUTTON, OR ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES, INCLUDING BY DOWNLOADING OR POSTING ANY CONTENT FROM OR THROUGH THE SERVICES, YOU ARE INDICATING THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS WHICH CONSTITUTE A BINDING LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND HIGHNOTE. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES UNLESS YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES.

“You” or “your” refers to the person accessing, posting or downloading content and using the Services (also referred to as “End User”). If you accept or agree to these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to these Terms and, in such event, “you” and “your” extends beyond you to also refer and apply to that company or other legal entity.

2. DEFINITION OF KEY TERMS

“Content” means text, graphics, images, software (excluding the App) information, messages, recordings, conversations, or other materials.

“Collective Content” means, collectively, Highnote Content and Registered User Content. Certain areas of the Site and App (and your access to or use of certain Collective Content) may have different terms and conditions posted or may require you to agree with and accept additional terms and conditions due to differences in subscription levels. If there is a conflict between these Terms and terms and conditions posted for a specific area of the Site, Services, App or Collective Content, the latter terms and conditions will take precedence with respect to your use of or access to that area of the Site, Services, App or Collective Content. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment or enhance the current Services in future shall be subject to these Terms; they will be posted as indicated in Section 3 below and you are deemed to have accepted them.

“Highnote Content” means Content that we make available through the Services including any Content licensed from a third party, but excluding Registered User Content.

“Registered User” and “you” means a person that completes Highnote’s account registration process, as described in the “Account Registration” section below.

“Registered User Content” means Content a Registered User posts, uploads, publishes, submits, or transmits to be made available through the Services.

“Verified User” means a Registered User who has been verified to be a licensed healthcare professional or student in a recognized healthcare program. Highnote has the discretion to verify inactive or retired healthcare professionals.

3. MODIFICATIONS

HIGHNOTE RESERVES THE RIGHT, WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE, TO MODIFY, DISCONTINUE OR TERMINATE THE SERVICES (OR ANY ASPECT THEREOF) OR TO MODIFY THESE TERMS, AT ANY TIME. ALL CHANGES ARE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY BY POSTING A NEW VERSION VIA THE SITE OR APP, OR BY PROVIDING YOU WITH NOTICE OF THE MODIFICATION. YOUR CONTINUED ACCESS OR USE OF THE SERVICES FOLLOWING THE POSTING OF THE MODIFIED VERSION CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH CHANGES TO THE SERVICES AND/OR THE TERMS. YOU ARE EXPECTED TO CHECK THE NOTICES ON THE SITE AND APP FROM TIME TO TIME SO YOU ARE AWARE OF ANY CHANGES AS THEY ARE BINDING ON YOU.

You agree that Highnote may send you notices, to the email address you used when registering for the Services, to alert you when the Terms or Services have changed or when your access has been terminated, as permitted under these Terms, for a violation of these Terms.

4. ACCESS AND USE OF SERVICES

Access to and use of the Services is limited to individuals who are at least 18 years of age. The Terms and Privacy Policy apply to your access and use of the Services and describe Highnote's practices and policies related to the collection, use and storage of information about Registered Users. BY ESTABLISHING AN ACCOUNT, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE AN ADULT AND AGREE TO BE PERSONALLY BOUND BY ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED HEREIN.

Use of the Services is void where prohibited by law or otherwise. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you have the right, authority, and capacity to agree to and abide by these Terms and that you are not prohibited from using the Services. You understand that your use of the Services may involve or require the transmission of significant amounts of data. You are solely responsible for all data charges that may be charged by your wireless carrier or internet service provider or that may otherwise arise from your use of the Services

5. MINORS

Highnote's privacy practices are consistent with Federal Childern's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA") and Highnote will not knowingly request or collect personal information from minors. If a child under 13 submits personal information to Highnote and we learn that such information is of a child under 13, we will make reasonable effort to delete the information as soon as possible. If you believe that we might have any personal information from a child under 13, please contact us at privacy@highnotehealth.com.

6. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS

You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the Services complies with the laws of your country of residence and you assume the risks (including indemnity under Section 13) attendant to the use of the Services and the use of any Registered User Content that you provide.

7. REGISTRATION

You must register to create an account (“Account”) and become a “Registered User” to use the Services. To register, you must provide a username, your email address, password, your medical specialty, areas of interest, verification details and other information specified in the registration form (“Registration Data”).

You understand and agree that the Services may include certain communications from Highnote, such as service announcements and administrative messages, and that while these communications are considered part of Highnote Services, you will be able to opt out of receiving them. However, you will not be able to opt out of any announcements and messages related to the implementation of Highnote’s Privacy Policy and your obligations thereunder with regard to your Registered User Content.

8. SUBSCRIPTION/USAGE FEES

Highnote does not currently charge fees for the use of the Services. In the event we institute a fee for the Services in the future, Highnote will provide notice of any fee collection via the Services prior to implementing such a fee, and you will have a choice at that time to continue to use the Services or discontinue the use of the Services.

9. SECURITY

The Services are designed to require users to provide a valid, working e-mail address and password to access and use the Services and you (1) consent to receive communications from Highnote in an electronic form; and (2) agree that all terms, conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that Highnote provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications would satisfy if they were in writing. Upon registering, you will select a password. Your email address and the password and codes assigned to you are, collectively, your “User Information.” You are solely responsible for (1) maintaining the strict confidentiality of your User Information, (2) not allowing another person to use your User Information to access the Services, (3) any and all damages or losses that may be incurred or suffered as a result of any activities that occur under your User Information. You agree to immediately notify Highnote in writing via email of any unauthorized use of your User Information or any other breach of security. Highnote is not and shall not be liable for any harm arising from or relating to the theft of your User Information, your disclosure of your User Information, or the use of your User Information by another person or entity. Any attempt to obtain unauthorized access or to exceed authorized access to the Services shall be considered a trespass and computer fraud and abuse, punishable under national, provincial, state, and federal laws. Highnote hereby notifies you that any or all communications through the Services, including with this Site, can and will be monitored, captured, and recorded and the communications may be transmitted to the authorities as we deem necessary, and in Highnote’s sole discretion, and without further notice.

10. DISCLAIMERS

Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
