14. Confidentiality
“Confidential Information” means information including, without limitation, all computer programs, code, algorithms, names and expertise of employees and consultants, know-how, formulas, processes, ideas, inventions (whether patentable or not), schematics and other technical, business, financial and product development plans, forecasts, strategies and information marked “Confidential”, or if disclosed verbally, is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure. In addition to the foregoing, Confidential Information shall include third party software or information, if any, that may be provided to User under this Agreement, including any data, related source or object codes, technical data, the data output of such software, documentation, or correspondence owned by the applicable licensor and/or third-party provider. Confidential Information shall not include any information that: (i) is or becomes generally publicly known through no wrongful act on User’s part; (ii) is already known to User without a third party’s disclosure restriction at the time of disclosure by SystemsTX hereunder, and as evidenced by a written document(s) predating SystemsTX’s disclosure to User; (iii) is rightfully received by User from a third party without breach of the Agreements; (iv) is furnished to a third party by SystemsTX without a duty of confidentiality; (v) can be proven to have been independently developed by User without access to any confidential information by User prior to the commencement of the relationship contemplated hereunder, and as evidenced by a written document(s) predating SystemsTX’s disclosure to User; or (vi) is explicitly approved for release by written authorization of SystemsTX. In the event of applicability of or reliance by User on subsection (ii), (iii) and/or (v) above, User must notify SystemsTX within ten (10) days of disclosure by SystemsTX or (10) from the execution of the Agreements, whichever is later, or else User will be said to have waived its right and ability to rely on any one or more of these three subsections. Users may disclose the information and data hereof to third parties if this is required for User to fulfill its duties under the Agreements and such third parties have agreed to conditions at least as stringent as those contained herein.
Unless otherwise indicated in writing by SystemsTX, the User will use the highest degree of care to prevent disclosing to others the information and data furnished by SystemsTX under the Three Agreements. In addition to User’s obligation to safeguard confidential information in accordance with this section, User acknowledges that PHI requires special safeguarding and agrees to abide by the laws of User’s company, state, and HIPAA regarding the protection and disclosure of PHI. This obligation shall continue so long as the Agreements are in effect and for a period until the information no longer remains confidential.
If User becomes compelled in any proceeding or is requested by a governmental body having regulatory jurisdiction over the disclosing party or receiving party to make any disclosure that is otherwise prohibited hereunder, such party shall provide the other party with prompt notice of such compulsion or request so that it may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy or waive compliance with this section. In the absence of a protective order or other remedy, the party compelled or requested to disclose the Confidential Information, may disclose such information immediately prior to the required date for production or disclosure of the information.
User agrees not to disclose the terms of this Agreement to any third party, including but not limited to pricing, without the prior written express consent of SystemsTX, except to advisors, investors, and others on a need-to-know basis under circumstances that reasonably ensure the confidentiality thereof, or to the extent required by law.
In the event of an actual or threatened breach of the above confidentiality provisions, SystemsTX will have no adequate remedy at law and will be entitled to immediate injunctive and other equitable relief, without bond and without the necessity of showing actual money damages.
15. Notices
SystemsTX may give notice by means of a general notice on the Services, electronic mail to User’s e-mail address on record in SystemsTX’s account information, or by written communication sent by first-class mail or pre-paid post to User’s address on record in SystemsTX’s account information. Such notice shall be deemed to have been given upon the expiration of 48 hours after mailing or posting (if sent by first class mail or pre-paid post) or 12 hours after sending (if sent by email).
Any notice, consent, approval, request or other communication required to be given under any of the Three Agreements to SystemsTX shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective (1) upon receipt if delivered by hand to an authorized individual to accept correspondences on behalf of SystemsTX or (2) when sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.
In general, communications to SystemsTX may be made to:

NEITHER SYSTEMSTX NOR THEIR AGENTS ARE PROVIDING ANY LEGAL, TAX, MEDICAL, COUNSELING, ACCOUNTING, INVESTMENT, FINANCIAL OR ANY OTHER PROFESSIONAL SERVICES OR ADVICE.
User also acknowledges and agrees that AS TO SYSTEMSTX, (i) USER ACCEPTS THE SERVICES AS-IS, AND THAT SYSTEMSTX HAS NOT MADE, AND DOES NOT HEREBY MAKE, ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OR COVENANT WITH RESPECT TO FITNESS, MERCHANTABILITY, CONDITION, QUALITY, DURABILITY OR SUITABILITY OF ITS SOFTWARE, SERVICES, OR ANY CONTENT, IN ANY RESPECT OR IN CONNECTION WITH, OR FOR THE PURPOSES AND USES OF USER, OR AS TO TITLE THERETO OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OR COVENANT OF ANY KIND OF CHARACTER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WITH RESPECT THERETO; and (ii) THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL SYSTEMSTX, OR ANY SUB-CONTRACTOR, SALESPERSON, OR AUTHORIZED SERVICE PROVIDERS HIRED BY SYSTEMSTX IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THE AGREEMENTS, BE LIABLE TO USER OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY (WHETHER OR NOT THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR LOSSES HAS BEEN NOTIFIED TO SYSTEMSTX), FOR ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, SAVINGS, REVENUES, LEGAL COSTS AND/OR EXPENSES, OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS, LOSS OF (OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE) EQUIPMENT OR MATERIALS OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, WHICH MAY ARISE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN ANY MANNER IN CONNECTION WITH: (i) THE USE OF OR ANY PROCESSES RELATED TO THE SERVICES; (ii) FOR ANY PURCHASE, USE OR LICENSE OF ANY COMPUTER SOFTWARE; (iii) FOR ANY DATA FURNISHED UNDER OR AS A RESULT OF THE AGREEMENTS; (vi) THE DURATION IN WHICH HEALTH INSURANCE INFORMATION IS EFFECTIVE; (v) ANY INACCURACIES IN THE HEALTH INSURANCE INFORMATION; (vi) ANY OF USER’S TREATMENT DECISIONS; OR (vi) ANY OTHER ACTIVITIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO USER’S USE OF THE SERVICES.
IN NO EVENT SHALL SYSTEMTX’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY EXCEED THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY PAID BY AND/OR DUE FROM USER IN THE SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH CLAIM. IN NO EVENT SHALL SYSTEMSTX AND/OR ITS THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS BE LIABLE TO ANYONE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER DAMAGES OF ANY TYPE OR KIND (INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, REVENUE, PROFITS, USE OR OTHER ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE) ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THESE SERVICES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, OR FOR ANY CONTENT OBTAINED FROM OR THROUGH THE SERVICE, ANY INTERRUPTION, INACCURACY, ERROR OR OMISSION, REGARDLESS OF CAUSE IN THE CONTENT, EVEN IF RECEIVING PARTY HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Certain states and/or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental, consequential, or certain other types of damages, so the exclusions set forth above may not apply fully to User. Nevertheless, the intention of the Parties is to minimize to the fullest extent possible the implied warranties and liability for remote or uncertain damages to be claimed from SystemsTX.
17. Release and Covenant Not to Sue
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, User hereby releases, and waives all claims and demands against SystemsTX and its officers, subsidiaries, affiliates, parent companies, joint ventures, any other corporate entities under common ownership, successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents, service providers, suppliers, and employers for claims, damages (actual and consequential), costs and expenses (including litigation costs and attorneys’ fees) of every kind and nature, arising out of or in any way connected with the use of the Services.
18. Third-Party Disputes
The user is solely responsible for any activities related to User’s independent verification of health insurance information, whether or not performed through the Services. SystemsTX reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with third party disputes, including, but not limited to, disputes between individuals and health insurance companies, individuals and health care practices, and health insurance companies and health care practices. If User has a dispute with one or more third parties, User releases SystemsTX and its officers, subsidiaries, affiliates, parent companies, joint ventures, any other corporate entities under common ownership, successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents, service providers, suppliers, employees, and employers from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such third party disputes, including, without limitation, any intellectual property dispute or any dispute over health insurance information.
19. Force Majeure
SystemsTX shall not be liable for any delay or failure to provide the Services resulting from causes outside the reasonable control of SystemsTX, including without limitation any failure to perform hereunder due to unforeseen circumstances or cause beyond SystemsTX control such as acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, network infrastructure failures, strikes, or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.
20. Indemnity and Hold Harmless
By using these Services User agrees that User will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless SystemsTX, together with its subsidiaries, affiliates, parent companies, joint ventures, any other corporate entities under common ownership, successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents, service providers, suppliers, employees, and employers, from and against all the liabilities, liens, actions, claims, costs, taxes, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) if any third party brings a claim against SystemsTX in connection with, or arising out of (i) User’s breach of the Terms and Conditions; (ii) User’s violation of any law, rule or regulation of the United States or any other country; (iii) User’s infringement or violation of the rights of any third parties (including intellectual property rights); (iv) User’s use of the Services; (v) any other party’s access and use of the Services with User’s account credentials or other appropriate security feature; or (vi) violation of any laws related to the HIPAA. SystemsTX reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by User, and, in such case, User shall agree to cooperate with SystemsTX’s defense of such claim.
21. Arbitration
SystemsTX looks forward to a long and mutually productive relationship with User. However, if the User becomes dissatisfied for any reason with the fees charged or the Services, SystemsTX encourages User to bring that to SystemsTX’s attention immediately. It is SystemsTX’s belief that most such problems can be resolved by good faith discussions between the parties. Nevertheless, it is always possible that some disputes may arise which cannot be resolved by discussions between us. SystemsTX believes that such disputes can be resolved more expeditiously and with less expense to all concerned by binding arbitration than by court proceedings.
Any dispute between User and SystemsTX (including, without limitation, any individual currently employed or formerly employed by SystemsTX) shall, at the sole discretion of SystemsTX, be subject to binding arbitration. In addition, all questions regarding the arbitrability of the dispute, including whether User and/or SystemsTX has agreed to arbitrate the dispute, shall be decided by such arbitration. This agreement to arbitrate all disputes between us applies even if some person or entity claims that this Agreement is void, voidable, or unenforceable for any reason. By agreeing to arbitrate, all parties are waiving a jury trial.
The arbitration shall be held in Broward County, Florida, before a mutually acceptable arbitrator, pursuant to the then-existing Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, including Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection. The arbitrator shall be a practicing attorney or retired judge with at least fifteen years of total working experience as such. User consents to personal jurisdiction in Florida and venue in Broward County in any action, and agree to waive the right to proceed in any other jurisdiction or forum concerning a dispute between the parties or relating to this Agreement. This agreement to arbitrate shall survive the termination of the Services or this Agreement.
No demand for arbitration may be made after the date when the institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim or dispute would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations. The arbitrator is not authorized to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages.
A party may apply to the arbitrator seeking injunctive relief until an arbitration award is rendered or the dispute is otherwise resolved. A party also may, without waiving any other remedy, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party pending the arbitrator’s appointment or decision on the merits of the dispute. If the arbitrator determines that a party has generally prevailed in the arbitration proceeding, then the arbitrator shall award to that party its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to the arbitration, including filing fees, arbitrator compensation, attorney’s fees, and legal costs.
The arbitration proceedings and arbitrator’s award shall be maintained by the parties as strictly confidential, except as is otherwise required by court order or as is necessary to confirm, vacate or enforce the award and for disclosure in confidence to the parties’ respective attorneys, tax advisors, and senior management and to family members of a party who is an individual.
The arbitrator shall require exchange by the parties of (i) the name and, if known, address and telephone number of each person likely to have knowledge of relevant information, identifying the subjects of the information, and (ii) non-privileged documents, including those in electronic form, that are relevant to the issues raised by any claim, defense or counterclaim or on which the producing party may rely in support of or in opposition to any claim, defense or counterclaim. The arbitrator shall limit such production based on considerations of unreasonable expense, duplication, and undue burden.
These exchanges shall occur no later than a specified date within 60 days following the appointment of the arbitrator. At the request of a party, the arbitrator may at his or her discretion order the deposition of witnesses. Depositions shall be limited to a maximum of three depositions per party, each of a maximum of four hours duration unless the arbitrator otherwise determines. The arbitrator may allow such other discovery as he or she determines is reasonably necessary for a fair determination of the dispute. Any dispute or objections regarding discovery or the relevance of evidence shall be determined by the arbitrator. All discovery shall be completed within 120 days following the appointment of the arbitrator unless the arbitrator otherwise determines.
22. Miscellaneous
This Agreement, including the Data Collection and Privacy Statement, and/or the Business Associate Agreement, together with any additional terms to which User agrees when using any aspect of these Services constitute the entire agreement regarding the Services and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, whether electronic, oral or written between User and SystemsTX with respect to the Services.
User agrees that these Terms and Conditions are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida, regardless of principles of conflict/choice of laws that may require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. If a court determines that any term or condition in these Terms and Conditions is illegal or unenforceable, then such provision(s) shall be construed, as nearly as possible, to reflect the intentions of the invalid or unenforceable provision(s), with all other provisions remaining in full force and effect.
SystemsTX and it’s Third Party Providers make no representation that the Services are appropriate or available for use in locations outside of the United States or that certain aspects of the Services are legally usable within all parts of the United States.
No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to SystemsTX upon any breach or default by User under the Agreements shall impair any such right, power or remedy of SystemsTX, nor shall any such delay or omission be construed as a waiver of any breach or default, or of any similar breach or default occurring, nor shall any waiver of a single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right preclude the exercise of any other right or any other remedy at law or in equity. Except as expressly and specifically, set forth in these Terms and Conditions, no representations, statements, consents, waivers, or other acts or omissions by SystemsTX shall be deemed a modification of these Terms and Conditions nor be legally binding, unless documented in physical writing, hand signed by User and a duly appointed officer of SystemsTX.
If any provision of the Agreements is found by a 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 the Agreements remain in full force and effect. All lawsuits arising from or relating to the Agreements shall be brought in a competent Federal or State court of Florida, and User hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts for such purpose.
The Terms and Conditions described in the Agreements shall be considered to be the complete and exclusive statement of the understanding between User and SystemsTX and cancels and supersedes all earlier promises, representations, discussions or agreements, written and oral, between the parties which relate in any way to the Services. To the extent there is any inconsistency between any obligations and rights in the Agreements, the latest issued provision shall prevail over the provision issued earlier in time. To the extent the provisions were issued contemporaneously, the terms and conditions herein shall prevail.
The terms and conditions in the Agreements shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of User and its permitted successors and assigns (subject to any other provision in the Agreements), and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of SystemsTX and its successors and assigns.
It is expressly acknowledged by the parties that SystemsTX is an “independent contractor” with respect to User and nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to create any employer/employee relationship, partnership, or joint venture between the parties. No employee or agent of either party may be deemed an employee or agent of the other party by reason of this Agreement. SystemsTX shall be fully responsible for all tax liabilities arising from its status as an independent contractor. Each party shall notify the other and permit the other to participate in the resolution of any inquiry or audit relating to SystemsTX’s status as an independent contractor.
