5. Your Relationship with Tono

Tono is a technology company that makes available certain products and services to enable virtual delivery of medical care and coordination of related in-person services. In connection with the Services, Tono provides certain technological and other administrative support for medical groups, including Tono Medical Services, P.C. and other medical practices (together, the “Medical Groups“) that employ or contract with physicians and healthcare professionals (“Providers“).

Tono acts solely as a technology platform to provide you with products and services offered through the Services, including connecting you with Medical Groups and the Providers. We do not control or interfere with the practice of medicine by Medical Groups or any Providers, each of whom is solely responsible for the medical care and treatment he or she provides to you. By accepting these Terms, you acknowledge and agree that Tono is not a healthcare provider and that by using the Services, you are not entering into a doctor-patient or other healthcare provider-patient relationship with Tono. By using the Services, you may, however, be entering into a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with a Medical Group and/or one or more Providers.

By accepting the Terms, you understand that, Medical Groups and/or Providers may send you messages, reports, and emails via the Services regarding your diagnosis and/or treatment. You further understand and agree that it is your responsibility to monitor and respond to these messages, reports, and emails and that neither Tono nor the Medical Group or any Provider will be responsible in any way, and you will not hold Tono, any Medical Group or any Provider liable for any loss, injury, or claims of any kind resulting from your failure to read or respond to these messages or for your failure to comply with any treatment recommendations or instructions from the Medical Group or your Provider(s).

While you are not establishing a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with Tono, by using the Services, you are establishing a direct customer relationship with Tono to use the products and services made available through the Services. In connection with such relationship, you may provide to us, or cause to be provided to us on your behalf, personal information, including health information, that is subject to use by us in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

6. Consent to Treat

You consent to receive medical care, including diagnosis, consultation, and/or treatment, from the Providers using remote, electronic communications, such as interactive chat, audio, and/or video communications enabled through the Site and our Services. You agree to be treated via a virtual visit with a physician or other medical provider (i.e., not an in-person visit) and understand that there are inherent risks and limitations associated with a virtual visit with a physician or other medical provider, including, but not limited to, risks and limitations arising from such physician's or medical provider's ability, or inability, to comprehensively assess and accurately diagnose illness, injury, disease, or other medical issues using remote, electronic communications.

7. Limited Use and Availability

Our Services are currently only available to individuals who are located in New York. In order to use the Service, you must be located in New York. Our Services may be subject to state regulations and may change from time to time due to changes in applicable regulatory requirements.

In some cases, the Services may not be the most appropriate way for you to track or manage your health and wellness, or provide information to, communicate with or seek medical care and treatment from a healthcare provider. For example, certain medical conditions may require an in-person procedure or a healthcare provider other than your Provider, or your Provider may determine that your diagnosis and/or treatment require an in-person office visit or are otherwise not appropriately addressed through use of the Services. In such a case, you may receive notification that you will be unable to use the Service for the particular issue you submitted and be provided with additional information regarding next steps.

8. Feedback. We appreciate feedback, comments, testimonials, ideas, proposals and suggestions for improvements to the Services (“Feedback“). If you choose to submit Feedback, you agree that we are free to use it without any restriction or compensation to you. Tono will not publish your name or other identifying information in connection with any testimonial unless you have given us your prior approval. Tono may republish any publicly available review, comment, or testimonial about Tono or the Services on the Site or in other media.

9. One-Time Payments and Subscriptions. Tono requires payment of a fee for use of the Services (or certain portions thereof) and you agree to pay such fees. You shall purchase a subscription (“Subscription“) and as necessary make one-time payments (e.g. for additional labs, pharmacy services/shipments, specialist visits, or visits with Providers outside your initial care team) (each a “One-Time Payment“) for such use.

  1. General. Whether you make a One-Time Payment or purchase a Subscription (each, a “Transaction“), you expressly authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge you for such Transaction. We may ask you to supply additional information relevant to your Transaction, including your credit card number, the expiration date of your credit card and your email and postal addresses for billing and notification (such information, “Payment Information“). You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use all payment method(s) represented by any such Payment Information. When you initiate a Transaction, you authorize us to provide your Payment Information to third parties so we can complete your Transaction and to charge your payment method for the type of Transaction you have selected (plus any applicable taxes and other charges). You may need to provide additional information to verify your identity before completing your Transaction (such information is included within the definition of Payment Information). By initiating a Transaction, you agree to the pricing, payment and billing policies applicable to such fees and charges, as posted or otherwise communicated to you. All payments for Transactions are non-refundable and non-transferable except as expressly provided in these Terms. All fees and applicable taxes, if any, are payable in United States dollars. In certain situations, your health plan may cover all or a portion of your use of the Services. Subject to the terms of any written agreement between Tono and the health plan, you may authorize us to bill for the Services on your behalf and share necessary information with the health plan to process payments. In the event that your health plan covers Tono Services and makes payment to Tono for a given Transaction, your payment obligation for such Transaction will be reduced by the amount your health plan actually paid to Tono. You shall be responsible for any fees that your health plan does not cover, such as copays, deductibles, and coinsurance. We may ask you to provide insurance information, including your insurer, ID number, RxBin number, and RxPCN number.

  2. Subscriptions. You Subscription term will be three (3) months, and will automatically renew at the end of each Subscription term unless you cancel your Subscription as set forth below in Section 8(c). If you purchase a Subscription, you will be charged a monthly Subscription fee, plus any applicable taxes, and other charges (“Subscription Fee“), at the beginning of your Subscription and each month thereafter, at the then-current Subscription Fee. BY PURCHASING A SUBSCRIPTION, YOU AUTHORIZE TONO TO INITIATE RECURRING NON-REFUNDABLE PAYMENTS AS SET FORTH BELOW. If you purchase a Subscription, we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you each month on the day of the commencement of your Subscription, using the Payment Information you have provided until you cancel your Subscription. No less than fifteen (15) days and no more than thirty (30) days before your Subscription term ends, or otherwise in accordance with applicable law, Tono will send you a reminder with the then-current Subscription Fee. By agreeing to these Terms and electing to purchase a Subscription, you acknowledge that your Subscription has recurring payment features and you accept responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to cancellation of your Subscription by you or Tono. Your Subscription continues until cancelled by you or we terminate your access to or use of the Services or Subscription in accordance with these Terms.

  3. Cancelling One-Time Payment or Subscription. With regard to all Transactions, YOUR PURCHASE IS FINAL AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CANCEL THE PURCHASE AND/OR RECEIVE A REFUND OF YOUR ONE-TIME PAYMENT OR SUBSCRIPTION FEE AT ANY TIME. But if something unexpected happens in the course of completing a Transaction, we reserve the right to cancel your Transaction for any reason; if we cancel your Transaction we'll refund any payment you have already remitted to us for such Transaction. Without limiting the foregoing, you may cancel your Subscription at any time, but please note that such cancellation will be effective at the end of the then-current Subscription term. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A REFUND OF ANY PORTION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE PAID FOR THE THEN CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION TERM AT THE TIME OF CANCELLATION. To cancel, you can send an email to support@tonohealth.com or cancel via the account management page of the Site. You will be responsible for all Subscription Fees (plus any applicable taxes and other charges) incurred for the then-current Subscription term. If you cancel, your right to use the Services will continue until the end of your then current Subscription term and will then terminate without further charges.

10. Pharmacy Services. If you receive a prescription as a result of the Services, you may select a pharmacy that is either owned by Tono or a partner of Tono (collectively, the “Tono Pharmacies“) to ship your prescription. You give us consent to send and disclose to the Tono Pharmacies all information provided by you, health care records, and other applicable health care information and personal information (such as your name, location and demographic information) so that you may receive pharmacy services. You may have the opportunity to select pharmacy services that involve the administration of at-home medications, and if you select this option, you agree to receive such at-home pharmacy services as directed by your Provider from the Tono Pharmacies or their partners. You acknowledge and agree that your Subscription Fee does not include the cost of any pharmacy services provided by the Tono Pharmacies and that Tono is not responsible for any such costs. If you elect to use the Tono Pharmacies to fulfill any prescriptions provided by Providers through the Services, you acknowledge that your medication, if approved, will not be shipped in child-resistant packaging and that you must keep it out of the reach of children.

11. Laboratory Testing. Your Providers may periodically request laboratory testing (e.g. bloodwork) to be collected and/or performed by a Tono partner (“Tono Lab Partner“).

You acknowledge and agree that your Subscription Fee does not include the cost of any laboratory services provided by the Tono Lab Partner and that Tono is not responsible for any such costs.

  3. THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN TONO AND YOU.

21. Governing Law and Forum Choice. These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 21 “Dispute Resolution,“ the exclusive jurisdiction for all Disputes (defined below) that you and Tono are not required to arbitrate will be the state and federal courts located in New York County, and you and Tono each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.

22. Dispute Resolution

  1. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services (collectively, “Disputes“) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Tono agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and that you and Tono are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.

  2. Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 21(a) above: (i) we both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights.

  3. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA“) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules“) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where you live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement.

  4. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and we won't seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in arbitration we'll pay all of our attorneys' fees and costs and won't seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.

  5. Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 21(b) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.

  6. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND TONO AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties' Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person's claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.

  7. Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 21(f) of these Terms (“Class Action Waiver“), if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply.
