DISCLAIMER; NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL HEALTH CARE OR ADVICE

THE APPLICATIONS AND ANY INFORMATION CONTAINED ON OR PROVIDED THROUGH THE APPLICATIONS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITH NO WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER. YOUR USE OF THE APPLICATIONS IS VOLUNTARY AND AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE HEALTH-RELATED INFORMATION AVAILABLE THROUGH THE APPLICATIONS IS GENERAL IN NATURE AND IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL HEALTHCARE. IT IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED, AND SHOULD NOT BE USED, TO REPLACE THE ADVICE OF HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR RELIANCE ON THE APPLICATIONS AND THE HEALTH-RELATED INFORMATION AVAILABLE THROUGH THE APPLICATIONS, AND FOR ALL DECISIONS OR ACTIONS RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APPLICATIONS AND ITS CONTENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY DECISION NOT TO SEEK OR REFRAIN FROM SEEKING ANY DIAGNOSIS OR TREATMENT. YOU ARE ALSO SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR DECISION TO USE THE SERVICES OF ANY PARTICULAR THIRD-PARTY PROVIDER. IF YOU HAVE SPECIFIC HEALTHCARE NEEDS, OR FOR COMPLETE HEALTH INFORMATION, PLEASE SEE A DOCTOR OR OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDER.

THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS AND PAYORS

The Applications provides users with access to electronic schedules of the available appointments of doctors, hospitals and other third-party healthcare providers ("Third-Party Providers"). Additionally, the Applications provide users with the ability to exchange certain registration information with Third-Party Providers. Smirta may provide marketing services on behalf of Third-Party Providers to patients or prospective patients (including users of the Applications) such as email campaigns, search engine optimization (SEO) and electronic directory services. Smirta may also provide Third-Party Providers with the opportunity to create their own Premier Listings, Profile Pages or mini-websites. Smirta may charge Third-Party Providers a fee for the services and opportunities described in this section. Although Smirta reserves the right (but does not have the obligation) to monitor, it does not control the content contained within Premier Listings, Profile Pages or mini-websites (including the availability of open appointments), and assumes no responsibility or liability of any kind for any inaccuracies (including inaccuracies regarding available appointments, insurance accepted or network participation) contained therein, or for any qualifications, reference materials or other content available therein.

Smirta allows you to submit and store the name of your insurance or benefit plan, but, except as provided below, Smirta does not provide any information regarding coverage available, healthcare costs, or doctors and hospitals participating in your plan. You should contact your insurance carrier or plan administrator ("Payors") for this information. Payors are third parties, although certain third-party Payors may be affiliated with Smirta. In some cases, a Payor may contract with Smirta to provide such Payor's members with information regarding coverage available, healthcare costs, doctors and hospitals participating in the plan, and other content and services ("Healthplan Services"). If your Payor has contracted with Smirta to make Healthplan Services available to you, you may be able to log in using your insurance or benefit plan member identification number, and access content and services related to your insurance or benefit plan. Although Smirta reserves the right (but does not have the obligation) to monitor the Healthplan Services (including but not limited to the content and services made available therein, such as network information, coverage and claim information and cost information), Smirta does not control the Healthplan Services, and assumes no responsibility or liability of any kind for any inaccuracies (including inaccuracies regarding network participation, plan benefits, coverage, features or claim status) contained therein, or for any messaging, reference materials or other content or services made available therein.

Smirta is not responsible for, and shall have no liability in connection with, any transactions or disputes between you and Third-Party Providers or Payors. If you have a dispute with a Third-Party Provider or Payor, you agree to release us (and our employees and agents) from claims, demands and damages of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed (including actual, consequential and punitive damages), arising out of or in any way connected with the use of the Applications or such disputes. You waive any provisions of any state, province, or country law that limit or prohibit a general release, including, if applicable, Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which states: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor."

INFORMATION THAT YOU SUBMIT

Your submission of information through the Applications is governed by Smirta's Privacy Policy. You represent and warrant that any information that you provide in connection with your use of the Applications is and shall remain true, accurate and complete, and that you will maintain and update such information regularly. You agree that if any information that you provide is false, inaccurate, obsolete or incomplete, we may terminate your use of the Applications.

For purposes of clarity, you retain ownership of any information, content and materials that you submit through the Applications in connection with any publicly-available forums (each, a "Submission"). However, please note that we need certain rights to your Submissions to be able to make them available on the Applications. As such, you hereby grant to Smirta and its service providers and designees a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable right and license, without compensation to you: to use, reproduce, distribute, adapt (including without limitation to edit, modify, translate and reformat), create derivative works of, transmit, publicly display and publicly perform such Submission, in any Applications now known or hereafter developed.

This license is non-exclusive (so you can license your Submissions to others), worldwide (as the Internet is global in its reach), fully-paid-up and royalty-free (so that we do not have to pay you for posting your Submissions), sublicensable through multiple tiers (so that we can use our service providers and subcontractors to provide services).

For each Submission, you represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary for you to grant the licenses granted in this section, and that such Submission, and your provision thereof to and through the Applications, comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. You further irrevocably waive any "moral rights" or other rights with respect to attribution of authorship or integrity of materials regarding each Submission that you may have under any applicable law under any legal theory. We request this waiver to help ensure that we have all the rights we may need to provide the services available through the Applications.
