Terms and Conditions for Site Use

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a legally binding contract between the user (“you”) and Dorsata, Inc. (“Dorsata,” “we,” or “us”). Dorsata provides the Services (as defined below) to you subject to these Terms, which may be updated by Dorsata from time to time without prior notice. You can review the most current version of the Terms at any time at http://www.dorsata.com/terms. These Terms govern your use of the Services.

Our services

Dorsata is dedicated to encouraging the development, dissemination and implementation of evidence-based clinical pathways. Dorsata does not offer medical advice. Any Content accessed through Dorstata is for informational purposes only, and is not intended to cover all possible uses, directions, precautions, drug interactions, or adverse effects. Dorsata does not recommend or endorse any third-party service providers, health care providers, specific tests, physicians, products, procedures, opinions, web sites accessed through Dorsata or other information that may be mentioned on the Services or accessed by the Services. Dorsata provides users with access to an interactive pathway creation platform (the “Services”). The specific features of the Services that are available may change from time to time and Dorsata may choose to discontinue some or all of the Services at its Sole discretion. Our role is to dynamically host some of the largest collaboratively-edited treatment pathways in the world. We act only as a hosting service, maintaining the infrastructure and organizational framework that allows our users to build the pathways by contributing and editing Content themselves. Because of our unique role, there are several issues you should keep in mind when considering our relationship to you, the pathways, and the other users.

USING OUR SERVICES

Limited user base: Access to and use of the Services is limited to healthcare professionals who are United States residents and at least 21 years of age. You must register to use the Services. To register, you must provide Dorsata with your name, valid email, and other confirmatory demographics specified in the registration form (“Registration Data”). By registering, and in consideration of the use of the Services, you represent and warrant that: (i) the Registration Data that you provide about yourself is true, accurate, current, and complete; (ii) you are a healthcare professional, defined as a person who is trained and licensed to provide healthcare (i.e., doctor, nurse, other hospital staff, etc.); (iii) you are at least 21 years of age; and (iv) you will maintain and promptly update the Registration Data and Conflict of Interest Disclosure to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. You authorize Dorsata to confirm the truthfulness and accuracy of the Registration Data and Conflict of Interest Disclosure. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or if Dorsata has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Dorsata has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Services. By accessing and using the Services, you acknowledge receipt of, and signify your agreement to, the Dorsata Privacy Policy, found at http://www.dorsata.com/about/privacy and incorporated herein by reference. You understand that your use of the Services may involve or require the transmission of significant amounts of data. You are responsible for all data charges that may be charged by your wireless carrier or internet service provider or that may otherwise arise from your use of the Service. You may only use or browse material contained on Dorsata for the provision or conduct of surgery, medical care, diagnostic studies and interpretation, the treatment of patients, training or for research. The following uses are prohibited: (i) reverse engineering, decompiling or modification of Dorsata, in whole or in part; (ii) preparation of derivative works not explicitly authorized in writing or incorporation of Dorsata, in whole or in part, in any other work or system; (iii) reselling access, creating materials for courses, copying, duplication, redistribution, retransmission, publication, transfer or commercial or other exploitation of Dorsata, in whole or in part, where such acts are contrary to the permitted use; (iv) copying, uploading, downloading or redistributing Dorsata Content; (v) systematic retrieval of Dorsata Content; (vi) creating or compiling, directly or indirectly, a collection, compilation, database or directory from Dorsata; and (vii) use of any software scripting or robots, spiders, crawlers or other automated downloading programs or devices to continuously and/or automatically search or index any Dorsata Content.

In connection with your use of the Services, we may send you service announcements, administrative messages, and other information. You may opt out of some of those communications.

We do not take an editorial role: Because pathways on Dorsata can be collaboratively edited, all of the Content that we host is provided by users like you (“Community”), and we do not take an editorial role. We may review Content to determine whether it is illegal or violates our policies, and we may remove or refuse to display Content that we reasonably believe violates our policies or the law. That does not necessarily mean that we review Content, so please don’t assume that we do. Our Services display some content that is not Dorsata’s. This content is the sole responsibility of the entity that makes it available. For Clarity, when Content is created within a sub-network of Dorsata, such as sub-network that may be administrated by a health care institution or sub-specialty society, the responsible network administrator for the particular entity may exercise editorial oversight at his or her discretion. This means that we generally do not monitor or edit the Content of the pathways, and we do not take any responsibility for this Content. Users can create, contribute to, or submit information for pathways including Content such as data, text, scripts, images, sounds, music, videos, audiovisual combinations, interactive features and other things embodied therein (collectively, “Content”). Users can also copy pathways which are published on Dorsata and edit (or “personalize”) them for their own accounts. Personalized pathways are derivations of published pathways in which the author of the personalized pathway grants a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide license to the Content and/or use of the personalized pathway by the Community. You are solely responsible for the truthfulness and accuracy of your Submissions. By use of the Services, you acknowledge and agree that: (a) your pathways do not contain Patient Information or proprietary information; (b) Dorsata is not under any obligation of confidentiality, express or implied, with respect to the pathway Content and eventual use data; (c) Dorsata shall be entitled to collect data on Content and pathway creation as well as pathway use for any purpose, in any way, in any media worldwide. Dorsata shall be free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques contained in any and all Submissions for any purpose whatsoever including, but not limited to, developing, manufacturing, and marketing products and services incorporating such Submissions. These licenses granted to Dorsata by you are non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, sub-licensable, assignable and irrevocable.

You are responsible for your own actions: You may use our Services only as permitted by law, including applicable international, export and re-export control laws and regulations. You are legally responsible for your edits and contributions on available pathways, so for your own protection you should exercise caution and avoid contributing any Content that may result in criminal or civil liability under any applicable laws. Dorsata does not offer any protection, guarantee, immunity or indemnification for the Content of pathways. For clarity, applicable law includes at least the laws of the United States of America. Although we may not agree with such actions, we warn editors and contributors that authorities may seek to apply other country laws to you, including local laws where you live or where you view or edit Content. You are responsible for using your professional judgment to evaluate and confirm the information you obtain. The Services and Content are not a substitute for the competent analysis and professional judgment of health care professionals. Similarly, we do not endorse any specific drugs, tests, physicians, products, procedures, opinions, “off-label” drug uses or other information that may be mentioned on the site, and we do not represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of any submitted community Content. The pathways should describe basic principles of diagnosis and therapy. The information provided in the pathways is no substitute for individual patient assessment based upon the healthcare provider’s examination of each patient and consideration of laboratory data and other factors unique to the patient. The pathways should be used as an informational tool to assist healthcare professionals with diagnostic and treatment decisions, bearing in mind that individual and unique circumstances may lead the user to reach decisions not presented in the pathways. The opinions expressed in the pathways are those of its authors and editors and may or may not represent the official position of any medical societies cooperating with, endorsing or recommending the pathways. The Content or pathways are not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on Dorsata. If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your doctor or 911 immediately.

Limited Academic version: Dorsata will provide Qualified Users at academic institutions with a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited license to use a restricted version of the Services for internal, non-commercial use for non-profit research or educational purposes only according to the terms of this Agreement. To be a “Qualified User”, an individual must be a student, researcher, professor, instructor or staff member of a non-profit educational institution or organization who uses the Services solely for non-profit research or educational purposes. The restricted version of the Services will provide read-only access to pathways created by licensed healthcare professionals. All other terms apply.

INFORMATION REGARDING CONTENT WE HOST

You may find some material objectionable or erroneous: Because we provide a wide array of Content that is produced or gathered by fellow users, you may encounter material that you find offensive, erroneous, misleading, mislabeled, or otherwise objectionable. In such situations, please activate a flag that will notify the pathway creator and network administrator, and please consider submitting a general comment.

Patient data must be protected: State, Federal and International laws, as well as ethical and licensure requirements of your profession may impose obligations with respect to patient confidentiality that may limit the ability of physicians, health care providers, and persons acting on their behalf, to make use of certain confidential Patient Information (“Patient Information”) and/or to transmit Patient Information to third parties. You represent and warrant that you will, at all times, comply with all laws directly or indirectly applicable to you that may now or hereafter govern the gathering, use, transmission, processing, receipt, reporting, disclosure, maintenance, and storage of the Patient Information, and use your best efforts to cause all persons or entities under your direction or control to comply with such laws. Dorsata does not collect, and you are prohibited from providing, personally identifiable health information about individuals or Protected Health Information (PHI), as the terms are defined in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996(HIPAA) and related statutes and regulations. Dorsata is not a “covered entity” or a “business associate” under HIPAA. As a result, HIPAA does not apply to the transmission of Content by Dorsata to any third party. We do not guarantee the privacy of any of our personalized pathways and accept no responsibility or liability for any breach of privacy or security on Dorsata. WE CANNOT AND DO NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR USE OR MISUSE OF PATIENT INFORMATION OR OTHER INFORMATION TRANSMITTED, MONITORED, STORED OR RECEIVED WHILE USING THE SERVICES ON THE SITE. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO AMEND OR DELETE ANY CONTENT (ALONG WITH THE RIGHT TO REVOKE ANY MEMBERSHIP OR RESTRICT ACCESS TO THE SERVICES) THAT IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION VIOLATES THE ABOVE.

Your representations, warranties, and obligations in this section survive termination of these Terms.

Links to outside materials: The Services may include links to third-party sites. Dorsata may screen, modify, refuse, or remove certain Content links from third-party sites or third-party services, but is not responsible for and does not endorse any third-party links, content or services. The linked sites are not necessarily under the control of Dorsata and Dorsata is not responsible for nor does it certify the Content of any linked site or any link contained in a non-affiliated linked site. If you decide to access any of the third party sites linked through the Services, you do so entirely at your own risk. Dorsata retains the right to disable or remove any link that violates any rights of Dorsata or causes interruption or deterioration of the Services at any time.

REFRAINING FROM CERTAIN ACTIVITIES

The pathways hosted by Dorsata exist only because of the vibrant community of users like you who collaborate together to write, edit, and curate the Content. We happily welcome your participation in this community. We encourage you to be civil and polite in your interactions with others in the community, to act in good faith, and to make edits and contributions aimed at furthering the mission of the shared pathway.

You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with all of the requirements of this Section 5(D), your DMCA notice may not be valid and we will not be required to comply with your request. Similarly, we will not comply with requests to remove Content if you cannot prove that you own the copyright to the Content in question.

Please note that you will be liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) if you materially misrepresent that any Content or material on the Services is infringing your copyrights. Accordingly, if you are not sure whether material available online infringes your copyright, we suggest that you first contact an attorney who is knowledgeable in this area of the law.

TERMINATION

Your use of the Services is subject to and expressly conditioned on your compliance with these Terms. If you fail to comply with the Terms or any other guidelines and rules published by Dorsata, we may terminate and/or suspend your access to any portion of the Services. Any such termination or suspension shall be in Dorsata’s sole discretion and may occur without prior notice, or any notice. Dorsata further reserves the right to terminate or suspend any user’s access to the Services or to any portion of the Services for any conduct that Dorsata, in its sole discretion, believes is or may be directly or indirectly harmful to other users, to Dorsata or its subsidiaries, affiliates, or business contractors, or to other third parties, or for any conduct that violates any local, state, federal, or foreign laws or regulations. Dorsata further reserves the right to terminate or suspend any user’s access to the Services, or to terminate the Services in their entirety, for any reason or for no reason at all, in Dorsata’s sole discretion, without prior notice, and with no liability to you.

Dorsata may also suspend or terminate any user account for any of the Services because of user inactivity. For example, an account may be terminated or suspended if a user fails to sign-in to the Services for an extended period of time. What is considered “user inactivity” varies and shall be in Dorsata’s sole discretion. If your account is suspended or terminated for inactivity, your right to use the Services immediately ceases.

SECURITY

The Services are designed to require users to provide a valid, working e-mail address and password to access and use the Services. Upon registering, you will receive a password, which you may change from time to time. Certain other Content, features, or functionalities within the Services may require additional access codes. Your e-mail address and the password and codes assigned to you are, collectively, your “Credentials.”

You are solely responsible for (1) maintaining the strict confidentiality of your Credentials, (2) not allowing another person to use your Credentials to access the Services, (3) any and all damages or losses that may be incurred or suffered as a result of any activities that occur under your Credentials. You agree to immediately notify Dorsata in writing of any unauthorized use of your Credentials or any other breach of security, and to ensure that you sign out from your account at the end of each session. Dorsata is not and shall not be liable for any harm arising from or relating to the theft of your Credentials, your disclosure of your Credentials, or the use of your Credentials by another person or entity.

Any attempt to obtain unauthorized access or to exceed authorized access to the Site shall be considered a trespass and computer fraud and abuse, punishable under state and federal laws. Dorsata hereby notifies you that any or all communications with this Site may be monitored, captured, recorded, and transmitted to the authorities as deemed necessary by Dorsata in its sole discretion and without further notice.
