1. Acceptance of Terms/Services Provided

SimpleTherapy, Inc. (“SimpleTherapy”, “we”, “us” or “our”), owns and operates www.simpletherapy.com and certain mobile, touch or affiliated websites or applications (“app” or “apps”) that we may have or operate now or in the future (collectively, the “Site”). The Site provides personalized video-based exercise therapy programs, including optional interactive coaching services (collectively, the “Exercise Services”), and live interactive physical therapy sessions, including as may be offered through a proprietary LivePT platform (the “PT Services”, and together with the Exercise Services, the “Services”) with independent professionals (each, a “Physical Therapist”) based, in part, upon the information we are provided by individuals who use the Site (referred to as “Users”, “User”, “you” and “your”, as context requires).

By using the Site or the Services, whether on a reoccurring subscription basis or as needed, regardless of whether or not a payment is made by you, your employer, or an insurer on your behalf for your use of such Services, you acknowledge your understanding of the terms, conditions, and restrictions of these Terms of Service (“Terms”) and agree to comply with and be legally bound by the same.

Please read these Terms and our Privacy Policy carefully before you use the Services. The latest version of our Privacy Policy is accessible at www.simpletherapy.com/privacy-policy/, and is incorporated by reference into these Terms.

If you access the Site or accept these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that legal entity and, in such event, “you” and “your” will refer to that legal entity, including its directors, officers, members, managers, partners, employees, agents, servants and representatives, as the case may be.

As long as you comply with the most current Terms and are at least thirteen (13) years of age (for both the Exercise Services and PT Services), SimpleTherapy, Inc. grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable, limited privilege to use the Services, or each of them, subject to any terms of service or usage restrictions as may be applied by any third-party service company’s terms of use (such as a wireless service provider).

2. Nature of Site/Confirmation of Informed Consent/Telehealth

Nothing on the Site is intended to create a physical therapist-patient relationship, or to replace the services of a licensed, trained, in-person physical therapist, or be a substitute for medical advice of a trained health professional licensed in your state. You should not rely on anything contained in the Site, and you should consult a medical professional licensed in your state in all matters relating to your health. You hereby agree that you shall not make any health or medical related decision based in whole or in part on anything contained in the Site.

Provision of physical therapy or healthcare advice as a part of any of the PT Services is not provided by SimpleTherapy, Inc. but rather through the individual healthcare providers with whom you must first establish a physical therapist-patient relationship. Using, accessing, and/or browsing the Site or providing personal medical history does not create a physical therapist- patient relationship between you and SimpleTherapy, Inc. or any of its employees and/or affiliates.

Any content accessed through the Service is for informational purposes only, and is not intended to cover all possible uses, directions, precautions, drug interactions, or adverse effects. The Service should not be used during a medical emergency or for the diagnosis or treatment of any medical condition. Please consult your doctor or other qualified health care provider if you have any questions about a medical condition, or before taking any drug, changing your diet, or commencing or discontinuing any course of treatment. Do not ignore or delay obtaining professional medical advice because of information accessed through the Site.

By using the Site, you acknowledge and agree that SimpleTherapy, Inc. (i) provides access to third-party providers; (ii) is not itself a medical care provider, (iii) is not a substitute for seeking medical care, (iv) does not itself provide medical advice, and (v) does not warrant that the Services can be used to diagnose, treat, or prevent any disease or condition, and (v) that your use of the PT Services specifically is wholly and absolutely conditioned on your acknowledgement and acceptance of SimpleTherapy, Inc.’s Informed Consent for Telehealth Services (the “Informed Consent”), which states, in part:

NATURE OF TELEHEALTH CONSULTATION

Telehealth involves the use of audio, video, or other electronic communication to enable your health care provider to interact with you and provide medical consultation, therapy, or treatment from a remote location. Video-conferencing technology will be used by your provider to facilitate the telehealth session. With your consent, the session may be recorded for quality review, operations, training, research, and safety purposes.

I understand that a video consultation will not be the same as an in-person visit with a healthcare provider due to the fact that I will not be in the same room as my therapist or Physical Therapist.

NATURE OF TELEHEALTH CONSULTATION

The purpose of physical therapy is to treat disease, injury and disability by examination, evaluation and intervention by use of rehabilitative procedures, mobilization, manual techniques, exercises, and physical agents to aid the patient in achieving their maximum potential, within their capabilities, and to accelerate functional recovery. I understand that due to the nature of digital healthcare and telehealth services that I may be limited in the availability of some of the above services. However, I also understand that my Physical Therapist will thoroughly explain to me the plan before it is performed. I also understand that my Physical Therapist cannot give me a medical diagnosis and physical therapy is not a substitute for a medical diagnosis by a physician. I also understand that my physical therapist is licensed and board certified to identify functional deficits and movement disorders and provide treatment. In the case of SimpleTherapy, Inc. I also understand that I may be receiving direct care by my physical therapist without a medical diagnosis first.

By using this Site, you (i) warrant and agree that you have read and agreed to the Informed Consent in its entirety and fully understand its contents, including the risks and benefits of the PT Services; (ii) acknowledge that you may ask your provider questions regarding the benefits and risks of telehealth and ensure those questions are answered to your satisfaction prior to receiving the PT Services; and (iii) give your consent to telehealth as an acceptable form of delivering the PT Services to you and that your consent will cover any and all of your sessions using telehealth with any Physical Therapist.
