OANI ONLINE SERVICES AGREEMENT

Description of Service

The OANI Online Services Agreement ("Agreement") applies to OANI Web sites and electronic content, as well as any features or content OANI may add in the future. This Agreement refers to all of the above as "OANI Services." OANI Web sites include those on the Doctorortho.com domain as well as on other Internet domains operated by our agents or affiliates. This Agreement serves as the terms and conditions under which you access or use the site. In continuing to access or use the site, you agree to follow the terms and conditions of this Agreement as they may apply to you.

OANI Services are subject to any disclosures or disclaimers found within the Services.

Information and Requirements, and Privacy Policy

Where applicable, you agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself. You also agree not to impersonate any person or entity, misrepresent any affiliation with another person, entity or association, use false headers or otherwise conceal your identity from OANI for any purpose. We agree to treat with care the information you entrust to us, in accordance with the disclosures we give and in the privacy policy outlined below.

You alone are responsible for all messages posted, statements made, or acts or omissions that occur within any OANI Service through the use of the information you provide.

Your right to privacy is very important. We recognize that when you choose to provide information about yourself, you trust us to act in a responsible manner. We believe your information should only be used to help us provide you with better Site. That’s why we put a policy in place to protect your personal information.

OANI will not sell or otherwise transfer to any unaffiliated third party any personally identifiable information about any user, without that user’s informed consent, except to the extent necessary to comply with applicable laws, police investigations, or in legal proceedings where such information is relevant. OANI allows access to database information by third parties providing technical services, but only to the extent necessary to provide you with those services.

License

OANI grants you a single, non-exclusive, non-transferable and limited personal license to access and use the OANI Services. This license is conditioned on your continued compliance with the terms and conditions in the Agreement.

Notices, Communications, and Electronic Signatures

You agree to accept all communications from us regarding use of the OANI Services at the addresses you provide. OANI is entitled to rely on the e-mail address and U.S. mail address that you last provided to us. You agree to waive all claims resulting from failure to receive communications because of changes in your e-mail or U.S. mail address. You agree to be bound by any affirmance, assent or Agreement you transmit through the OANI Services you access by computer, including but not limited to any consent you give to receive communications from us solely through electronic transmission. You agree that, when in the future you click on an "I agree," "I consent" or other similarly worded "button" or entry field with your mouse, keystroke or other computer device, your agreement or consent will be legally binding and enforceable and the legal equivalent of your handwritten signature.

Transmissions, Data Security and Storage

Any material, information or idea you transmit to or post on this Site by any means will be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary, and may be disseminated or used by OANI or its affiliates for any purpose whatsoever, including, but not limited to, developing, manufacturing and marketing products.

Electronic communications through the OANI Services may not be encrypted. You acknowledge that there is a risk that data, including email, electronic communications and personal data, may be accessed by unauthorized third parties when communicated between you and OANI or between you and other parties.

Hyperlinks

OANI may provide a link to other sites as part of a OANI Service. OANI does not control the other sites, and OANI makes no representations whatsoever concerning the content of those sites. The fact that OANI has provided a link to a site is not an endorsement, authorization, sponsorship, or affiliation with respect to such site, its owners, or its providers. There are risks in using any information, software, or products found on the Internet, and OANI cautions you to make sure you understand these risks before retrieving, using, relying upon, or purchasing anything via the Internet. You agree that under no circumstances will you hold OANI liable for any loss or damage caused by use of or reliance on any content, goods or services available on other sites.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Although OANI tries to provide accurate and timely information through its Services, there may be inadvertent technical or factual inaccuracies and typographical errors. OANI reserves the right to make changes and corrections at any time, without notice. The information provided through the OANI Services is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE." OANI does not warrant the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the information, text, graphics, links or other items contained in the OANI Services.

OANI expressly disclaims all liability for errors or omissions in, or the misuse or misinterpretation of, any information contained in the OANI Services. OANI may change information contained on the OANI Services at any time and makes no commitment to update the information contained on the OANI Services. YOU ASSUME THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE USE OF THE OANI SERVICES.

Further, OANI makes no warranties regarding the OANI Services. OANI and its affiliates and agents disclaim all warranties, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

You agree to indemnify and hold OANI and its affiliates, agents, employees, and licensors harmless from any claim, demand, loss, costs or expense, including attorneys’ fees, made by any person arising out of your violation of this Agreement, state or federal laws or regulations, or any other person’s rights, including but not limited to infringement of any copyright or violation of any proprietary or privacy right.

Under no circumstances, including but not limited to a negligent act, will OANI or its affiliates or agents be liable for any damages of any kind that result from the use of, or the inability to use, any OANI Service, even if a OANI authorized representative has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Applicable law may not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability or incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

The OANI Site may contain examples of certain exercises by way of providing users information. OANI is not prescribing these exercises, and you are prohibited from undertaking these exercises without first consulting your doctor, physical therapist, or other appropriate medical professional.

All content, trademarks, services marks, trade names, logos, and icons are proprietary to OANI or its affiliates or agents. Nothing contained on the OANI Services should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any trademark displayed on the OANI Services without the written permission of OANI or such third party that may own the trademarks displayed on the OANI Services.
