- Ownership of the Site
All pages within this Site and any material made available by myMD.io for download are the property of one81 PTY Ltd or its licensors or suppliers, as applicable. The contents of the Site, including without limitation the files, documents, text, photographs, images, audio, and video, and any materials accessed through or made available for use or download through the Site (“Content”) may not be copied, distributed, modified, reproduced, published, or used, in whole or in part, except for purposes authorized or approved in writing by myMD.io.
- Providers
To use this Site as a healthcare provider with a registered account (“Provider”), You must agree to comply with all laws, medical or other board rules, or other rules and regulations applicable to You as a healthcare provider using the Site. Your relationship with a myMD.io user (defined as an individual who enters Your waiting room and that You communicate with using the Service that may be Your patient or client) (“Patient”) is directly between You and the Patient. The Patient will never have a provider/patient-type relationship with myMD.io. myMD.io does not practice medicine or any other licensed profession and offers no medical or other professional services. As set forth more fully in Sections 10 and 13, Provider is solely responsible for all agreements, consents, notices and other interactions with Patients and other consumers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Provider is solely responsible for all billings and collections from Patients and other consumers, and myMD.io shall have no liability whatsoever to Provider concerning any amounts owed by any Patient or other consumers.
Provider agrees not to include any identifiable Patient information whatsoever (name, diagnosis, email, or any other protected health information identifier) in any communication with myMD.io. As stated above and repeated for emphasis: myMD.io has no relationship with any of provider’s Patients.
- Independent Professional Judgment
The Provider will use the Site and Services only in accordance with applicable standards of good professional practice. While software products such as the Services may improve the quality of service that Provider and its personnel offer to Patients, many factors, including the provider/patient relationship can affect a patient outcome, and with intricate and interdependent technologies and complex decision-making it is often difficult or impossible to accurately determine what the factors were and in what proportion they affected an outcome. Provider shall be solely responsible for its use of the Site and Services, and the provision of services to Provider’s Patients. In this regard, Provider releases myMD.io and waives all potential claims against myMD.io as a result of the Provider’s use of the Site and Services, and the provision of services to Provider’s Patients.
- Electronic Communications
You consent to receive communications from us electronically. You agree that all agreements can be entered into and signed electronically in accordance with applicable law, and all notices, disclosures, and other communications that we provide to You electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such notice or other communications be in writing.
- Site Access; Security and Restrictions; Passwords; Accounts
You are prohibited from violating or attempting to violate the security of the Site, including, without limitation, (a) accessing data not intended for Your use or logging onto a server or an account which You are not authorized to access; or (b) attempting to probe, scan or test the vulnerability of a system or network or to breach security or authentication measures without proper authorization; or (c) accessing or using the Site or any portion thereof without authorization, in violation of these Terms of Service or violation of applicable law.
You may not use any scraper, crawler, spider, robot or other automated device, process, or means of any kind to access or copy data on the Site, deep-link to any feature or content on the Site, bypass our robot exclusion headers or other measures we may use to prevent or restrict access to the Site.

You agree not to use any device, software or routine to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of this Site or any activity being conducted on this Site.
While the myMD.io software is a secure solution, You are also a part of its security. It is Your responsibility to: use a strong password and not share it; keep Your computer operating system and browser updated; use anti-virus and firewall software (and whitelist myMD.io); and not use myMD.io in a public place unless You can be assured there are no eavesdroppers. You agree to be fully responsible for all activities occurring under Your user ID.
Each individual Provider is required to have their own account. Use of that account is for that specific individual. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your user ID or account or any other breach of security. We reserve the right to remove users and disable any account(s) that are being used by more than one user. We also may block any user who violates this policy from creating a new account. myMD.io reserves the right to cooperate fully with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing myMD.io to disclose the identity of anyone posting, publishing, or otherwise making available any materials that are believed to violate these Terms of Service. BY CLICKING “ACCEPT” OR ACCESSING THE SITE AND/OR USING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO HOLD MYMD.IO HARMLESS FROM ANY CLAIMS RESULTING FROM ANY ACTION TAKEN BY MYMD.IO DURING OR AS A RESULT OF ITS INVESTIGATIONS AND/OR FROM ANY ACTIONS TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF INVESTIGATIONS BY EITHER MYMD.IO OR LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES.

Subject to Your compliance with these Terms of Service and Your payment of any applicable fees, myMD.io or its content providers grant You a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and make use of the myMD.io Services. In the event You have entered into a separate Platform Subscription Agreement or Master Services Agreement with myMD.io (the “Services Agreement”), the terms of the Services Agreement shall also apply to Your use of the Site and the Services. In the event of a conflict between the Services Agreement and these Terms of Service, the terms of the Services Agreement shall prevail.

The Provider is solely responsible for obtaining all necessary agreements and consents and providing all required notices to Patients and others who will view or utilize Provider Content.
By uploading Provider Content and any other information to the Site, You represent and warrant to myMD.io that: (1) You have the legal right to grant permission for use by the Site and myMD.io of Provider Content and other information, and (2) You have the legal right and authorization to upload all Provider Content and other information uploaded by you to the Site or posted by you to a Virtual Waiting Room.
myMD.io does not own any of the Provider Content you upload. You hereby grant to myMD.io a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works of, distribute, perform, and display all Provider Content, remarks, suggestions, ideas, graphics, or other information or materials of any kind or nature communicated by you (or on your behalf) to myMD.io through the Site (each, a “Submission”), and to incorporate any Submission in other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed. You agree that myMD.io will not be bound to treat any Submission as confidential and may use any Submission in its business (including without limitation, for services, products, marketing, or advertising) without incurring any liability for royalties or any other consideration of any kind, and will not incur any liability as a result of any similarities that may appear in future myMD.io operations or businesses. myMD.io is and shall be under no obligation to respond to any Submission.
myMD.io does not regularly review Provider Content but does reserve the right (but not the obligation) to monitor and edit or remove any Provider Content submitted to the Site. You grant myMD.io the right to use the name that You submit in connection with any Provider Content. You agree not to use a false email address, impersonate any person or entity, or otherwise mislead as to the origin of any Provider Content. You are and shall remain solely responsible for the content of any Provider Content You post to the Site or provide to Patients or other consumers – including content posted to Your Virtual Waiting Room. myMD.io and its affiliates take no responsibility and assume no liability for any Provider Content submitted by You or any third party.
You agree not to contact other users through unsolicited e-mail, telephone calls, mailings or any other method of communication.
