BoneSmart Terms of Use
The BoneSmart Network, described below, provides users with a wide array of services including, without limitation, news, reference resources, sponsored programming, personalized content, continuing medical education and communication platforms (collectively, the “Services”). The Services are provided to users of the BoneSmart Network subject to the following Terms of Use (the “Terms”). You will always be able to view the most current version of these Terms by clicking on the Terms of Use link at the bottom of any page of a BoneSmart Network website or with our mobile applications. By using the Services, you agree to these Terms, whether or not you are a registered member of the BoneSmart Network. These Terms govern your use of the Services and create a binding legal agreement that we may enforce against you in the event of a violation. If you do not agree to all of these Terms of Use, do not use the Services!
Scope of these Terms of Use
The BoneSmart Network includes the website www.BoneSmart.org (the “BoneSmart Site”) and the BoneSmart Device Application (the “BoneSmart Apps”) for iPhone, iPad and Android devices which include BoneSmart Mobile. BoneSmart.org and BoneSmart Mobile are owned by The Foundation for the Advancement in Research in Medicine, Inc. (FARM) and operated by BoneSmart LLC. References to “BoneSmart” in these Terms of Use mean BoneSmart LLC. References to “we” or “our” mean BoneSmart.
BoneSmart may offer other services to physicians and healthcare professionals outside of the BoneSmart Network. These other services are not governed by these Terms but by the terms of use applicable to the property through which these services are offered.
Account Registration
You must register an account with the BoneSmart Network to access all of the Services. Registration requires you to provide us with your name, email address, profession, specialty and other information specified in the registration form (“Registration Information”), and to select a username and password that will be associated with your account. You agree that your Registration Information is true, accurate, current, and complete, and you will promptly update your Registration Information as necessary so that it continues to be true, accurate, current and complete. We may attempt to verify the accuracy of the Registration Information that you have provided and update it as necessary. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your BoneSmart account username and password and you may not permit another person to use your username and password to access the Services. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account. If you believe that the security of your account information has been compromised, you should immediately change your username and password through the account settings feature or notify us and we will assist you. We shall have no liability for any unauthorized access to or use of your account information.
Transactional and Subscription Services; Packages and Levels; Promotions and other
Transactional Services
After you create a Membership Account, certain of our Services may be made available by us without requiring any commitment from you to pay any fees or other amounts (e.g., certain pay-per-view offerings) (collectively, “Transactional Services”). Your access to, and use of, any Transactional Services are governed by these Terms of Use, and once you create or request a Membership Account to access certain of our Services, you will be a member until you or we permanently cancel your Membership Account and all Subscription Services with us. For example, you must abide by these Terms of Use in connection with your creation and use of any Membership Account used solely to access our Services, regardless of whether you ever provide payment information for any other paid Transactional Services. You may be required to provide a payment method and necessary billing information in order to receive certain other Transactional Services. Any and all users that create a Membership Account automatically enroll in membership to our Services UNLESS AND UNTIL YOU CONTACT US TO PERMANENTLY CANCEL AND DELETE INFORMATION RELATED TO YOUR MEMBERSHIP ACCOUNT BY CONTACTING CUSTOMER SERVICE VIA E-MAIL AT MEMBERSHIP@BONESMART.ORG, or until we elect to permanently cancel your Membership Account and Subscription Services (as defined below) for any purpose (e.g., in accordance with our standard information retention and destruction processes).
Subscription Services
After you create a Membership Account, certain of our Services may be made available by us solely in connection with your agreement to purchase a subscription to such Services for a set period (e.g., monthly or bi-annual subscription term) (collectively, “Subscription Services”). Regardless of the period for which you purchased any Subscription Services, following the completion of any such subscription period, your Subscription Services will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis at the then-current standard rates for monthly access to the same Subscription Services, unless and until they are cancelled or changed by you or BoneSmart in accordance with these Terms of Use.
Packages of Subscription Services
We may offer a number of different packages of Subscription Services, including special promotional packages, each governed by any supplemental Promotional Terms provided at the time of your first access or use of such Services. Some promotional packages may be offered by third parties in conjunction with the provision of their own products and services. We are not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties. We reserve the right to modify, terminate, or otherwise amend the Subscription Services offered by us, and the contents of the packages and levels thereof.
Minimum Requirements
BoneSmart reserves the right to require and/or change minimum programming package requirements, from time to time and at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion. For example, BoneSmart may require a minimum commitment term, or BoneSmart may require you to subscribe to a minimum level or package of our Services in order to view certain content or obtain access to purchase additional levels or packages of Subscription Services. In order to purchase certain packages, you may be required to first subscribe to Services for a set term (e.g., a year-long subscription).
Promotional Offers
You may initially accept a promotional offer for a certain package of Services that later becomes unavailable. Promotional offers do not automatically renew and may not be available at the end of, or during, the applicable promotional period, and following the completion of any such promotion, the Subscription Services will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis at the then-current standard rates for monthly access to the same Subscription Services, unless and until they are cancelled or changed by you or BoneSmart, in accordance with these Terms of Use.
Only One Promotion per Account Owner
Promotional offers may not be combined with other promotional offers associated with any account that you own, unless otherwise expressly permitted in the applicable Promotional Terms. BoneSmart reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to determine your eligibility for any promotional offer pursuant to the applicable Promotional Terms. BoneSmart reserves the right to change, amend, and alter then-current promotional offers or Promotional Terms as well as institute new promotional offers, from time to time and at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion. We do not guarantee that any promotional offers are or will be available to you at all, or in connection with any Services desired by you.
Cancellation Policies
Your Subscription Services are prepaid on a monthly billing period basis and you may contact us to cancel them at any time by visiting https://bonesmart.org/forum/account. Cancellation requests are not accepted via email. Because charges are prepaid each billing period, when you contact to cancel your Subscription Services, your subscription will continue, and you will be able to enjoy your Subscription Services through the end of, the then-current billing period (except as otherwise provided herein to the contrary (see Section BILLING) or in any Promotional Terms). Refunds are not issued for a partial billing period. When you cancel your Subscription Services, you may be subject to certain charges and fees as set forth in any applicable Promotional Terms, and if you have taken advantage of a promotional offer that required you to pre-pay for a minimum period of time (e.g., 3 months), then your cancellation will not become effective until the end of that minimum period of time, and in such case, for purposes of such promotional offer, your initial “billing period” will mean such minimum period of time. Your cancellation of Subscription Services does not automatically cancel your Membership Account or access to our Transactional Services.
Billing
Fees and Charges
We will bill you monthly in advance for your Subscription Services. Charges are billed to the credit or debit card you registered with your Membership Account. BoneSmart may, from time to time and at any time, change the amount of or basis for determining any fees or charges, and/or institute new fees, surcharges, or other charges as determined by us (e.g., surcharges imposed for transmission of programming content in certain jurisdictions). You agree to pay all amounts billed for our Services, as well as all taxes, fees, and other charges, if any, that are now or may in the future be assessed in connection with any of our Services you access or use, and any other charges due and owing to us. We may apply interest and late fees for any amounts paid following the date when due, and we may terminate or suspend your account for any failure to timely pay any amounts or maintain up-to-date payment method information within your account. State and local taxes or reimbursement charges for gross earnings taxes in some states may apply.
Registration of Credit or Debit Card
If you do not already have an account, you will be required to establish an account to access certain of our Services. To access certain Services you will also be required to register a valid credit or debit card to process payments of the associated fees. When you register a credit or debit card for a new account, you authorize BoneSmart to place a pending charge to your credit or debit card to verify your billing address and the validity of your credit or debit card; such pending charges are temporary and will not be converted into an actual charge to you. Pending charges, while pending, will, however, reduce the available amount of credit on your credit card or funds available to your debit card. You are solely responsible for any and all fees charged to your credit or debit card by the issuer, bank, or financial institution, including fees for membership, any overdraft or other insufficient funds, or for exceeding any applicable credit limit. Once your account is authenticated, the credit or debit card that you registered with your account will be charged for each transaction without having to reenter your credit or debit card information. You agree that the issuer of any credit or debit card you registered with your Membership Account will accept these Terms of Use as your authorization and pay all amounts billed in connection with use of your account without BoneSmart’s submitting a signed receipt.
Billing Cycle
The fees for all Subscription Services and Transactional Services will be billed in advance. For Subscription Services, we automatically bill you each month on the calendar day corresponding to the date on which you first commenced payment for Subscription Services. Membership Account fees for Subscription Services and Transactional Services are fully earned upon payment. If your paid membership to any Subscription Service began on a day not contained in a given month, then we may bill you on a day in the applicable month or such other day as we deem appropriate (e.g., if you are regularly billed on the 31st, then we may bill you on the 28th or 30th of the calendar months that do not have 31 days). Although we endeavor to bill you as described in this paragraph, we reserve the right to change the timing of our billing as necessary, from time to time, and at any time. We may authorize your payment method in anticipation of membership or service-related charges. As used in these Terms of Use, “billing” shall indicate a charge, debit, or other payment clearance, as applicable, against your registered credit or debit card information. For the purposes of this paragraph, “month” or “monthly” refers to your billing cycle.
No Returns, Credits or Refunds
YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE. WE ARE NOT OBLIGATED, AND YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT, TO ANY CREDIT, REFUND, PRICE ADJUSTMENT OR ANY OTHER DISCOUNT, COMPENSATION OR RECOMPENSE FOR ANY PARTIALLY USED OR UNUSED SERVICE (E.G., SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES NOT USED OR TRANSACTIONAL SERVICES NOT DOWNLOADED OR FULLY VIEWED). Notwithstanding the forgoing, although not required or obligated, we reserve the right to evaluate or elect to provide credits, refunds, price adjustments or other discount, compensation or recompense, from time to time, and at any time, in our sole and absolute discretion; provided that any such elections to offer any such credits, refund, price adjustment or other discount, compensation or recompense in one instance does not entitle you to the same or any such benefit in the future for similar or unrelated instances, nor does it create any obligation whatsoever for us to offer such benefit to you or any other user in connection with any past, present, or future request under any circumstance whatsoever.
Restarting your Services
If you do not make timely payment for your Services, we may disconnect, suspend, limit, or terminate your access to such Services, and in such event, we will be immediately and forever wholly relieved from any and all of our duties and obligations to you under these Terms of Use. If your Membership Account is disconnected for non-payment, or for any other reason whatsoever, then BoneSmart may require that you pay, and you agree to pay, any amount due (regardless of how long outstanding, and including all past due charges and all outstanding balances accrued through the date of such disconnection) before we reconnect your access to any of our Services. We are not obligated to reconnect your access to any of our Services. If your Services are disconnected for non-payment, or for any other reason whatsoever, then you may no longer be eligible, even if you pay to restart your Subscription Services, to receive any remaining credits or promotional pricing that you would have been eligible to receive had your Subscription Services, or any of our other Services, not been disconnected, suspended, limited, or terminated. Unless required by applicable law, deposits will not be held segregated from other funds and will not earn or accrue interest. Promotional pricing is valid only at the time of initial purchase of such promotional Subscription Service or Transactional Service, and we reserve the right to stop any promotion at any time for any reason whatsoever.
Attorney’s Fees/Collections
If we use an attorney or a collection agency to collect any money you owe us, or to assert any other right that we may have against you (e.g., any breach of any agreement you may have with BoneSmart or any of our affiliates), then you hereby agree to pay the reasonable costs of such collection or other action. These costs may include the costs of a collection agency, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and court costs. If you believe you have been billed in error, you must contact our Customer Service immediately, and in no event more than 15 days following the date you receive any bill for which you are seeking correction. Failure to timely notify us of any dispute will constitute your acceptance of the corresponding billed amounts. You must pay undisputed portions of any billing statement when due, or, without limitation to any other rights or remedies available to BoneSmart at law, in equity, under contract (including these Terms of Use), or otherwise, all of which are hereby expressly reserved (e.g., we may elect to suspend or terminate your Subscription Services or any of our Services), permanently or temporarily, in whole or in part. All payments for our Services must be made directly by you to us, unless we authorize otherwise; and except as otherwise authorized, BoneSmart shall have no obligation to provide Services for which payment is made by you to a third party or for which payment is made by a third party on your behalf.
