Your Relationship with Us.
‍
DrQuitLLC does not provide medical services, including via the Platform. DrQuitLLC operates the technology platform through which you can connect with Providers who render Telehealth Services and receive other available Services. The Providers matched through the Platform use independent professional judgment in rendering Telehealth Services. DrQuitLLC provides administrative, payment, technological and other supportive non-clinical services for the Providers. The Providers, and not DrQuitLLC, are responsible for the quality and appropriateness of the care they render to you on the Platform, and any professional advice received from a Provider on our Platform comes from the Provider alone and not from DrQuitLLC.

You will be matched with available Providers based on the information you submit to the Platform and you will have the option to choose and/or switch Providers. The Telehealth Services you receive may vary depending on the Provider you interact with. DrQuitLLC does not participate in the interaction between you and Providers and does not have control over the quality, reliability, legality, integrity, authenticity, accuracy, appropriateness, provision, or failure to provide, or responsiveness of the information provided by or to Providers. You should contact your Provider directly for any questions regarding your care or medical treatment, and you can report a complaint relating to the care provided by a Provider by contacting the professional licensing board in the state where the care was received. DrQuitLLC does not recommend or endorse any specific Providers, tests, medications, products, or procedures, and shall not in any way be liable for any Telehealth Services or other services or advice provided to you by a Provider. Your reliance on any Provider or information delivered by the Providers via the Platform is solely at your own risk and you assume full responsibility for all risks associated herewith.

By accepting these Terms of Use, you acknowledge and agree that DrQuitLLC is not a health care provider and that by using the Services, you are not entering into a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with DrQuitLLC. By using the Services, you may, however, be entering into a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with one or more Providers. Further, we do not control or interfere with any professional service provided by the Labs and third-party Pharmacies, each of which is solely responsible for their provision of professional services rendered via the Service.

Telehealth Services.

Telehealth involves the delivery of health care services using electronic communications, information technology or other means between a health care provider and a patient who are not in the same physical location. While the provision of health care services using telehealth may offer certain potential benefits, there are also potential risks associated with the use of telehealth. The Telehealth Services are not intended to take the place of your relationship with your regular in-person health care practitioners or primary care physician.

To receive Telehealth Services, you must agree to the Telehealth Informed Consent, which provides a description of the risks and benefits of telehealth, and constitutes your voluntary authorization to the rendering of Telehealth Services by the Providers on the Platform. The Telehealth Informed Consent is hereby incorporated into these Terms of Use by reference and constitutes a part of these Terms of Use. You agree that DrQuitLLC is a third-party beneficiary of the Telehealth Informed Consent and has the right to enforce it against you.

The Providers have also adopted a DrQuitLLC Notice of Privacy Practices describing their collection and use of your health information. By accessing or using any part of the Services, you are acknowledging receipt of the Notice of Privacy Practices from your Provider(s).

Where appropriate, your Provider(s) may also request your cooperation in obtaining records from your previous health care providers to assist in providing the best care for you (this may include signing a release and/or authorization to speak to all other health care providers that you see).

The Services are not for emergencies.

IF YOU BELIEVE YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY. If you are thinking about suicide or if you are considering taking actions that may cause harm to yourself or others, call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline anytime at 1-800-273-8255 (en Español 1-888-628-9454) or go to the nearest emergency room. You can also use the 24/7 Crisis Text Line by texting “HOME” to 741-741.

DrQuitLLC’s Platform and Services, including the Telehealth Services, are not for medical emergencies or urgent situations. You should not disregard or delay seeking medical advice based on anything that appears or does not appear on the Platform. You should seek emergency help or follow up care when recommended by a Provider or when otherwise needed. You should continue to consult with your primary care physician and other health care professionals as recommended.

Always seek the advice of a physician or other qualified health care prescriber concerning questions you have regarding a medical condition and before stopping, starting, or modifying any treatment or medication. Please be aware the Services, including the Telehealth Services and the delivery of any medication prescribed through the Services, will stop being provided at the termination of your Subscription or Services.

By providing us with updated payment information, you authorize us to continue to charge your card using the updated information so that you can continue to receive your Subscription or other Services.

Subscriptions and Recurring Payments.
‍
If you purchase a subscription to the Services (“Subscription”), with the exception of any free trial periods, DrQuitLLC will charge you a Subscription fee at the rate presented to you (“Subscription Fee”). The Subscription gives you access to the Services for one month, or a different subscription period selected on the Platform (“Subscription Period”). Unless otherwise stated when you sign up for a Subscription, your selected Services will automatically renew for a further Subscription Period with the Subscription Fee (including any applicable taxes) and will continue to do so unless we are either no longer offering that Service, in which case we will notify you, or your Subscription has been canceled in accordance with these Terms of Use.

The billing period for your Subscription Fee begins from the time of registration (i.e., when you register, enter your payment method and pay the initial Subscription Fee), and again at the start of each subsequent Subscription Period. By signing up for a Subscription, you agree to pay your Subscription Fee in full each Subscription Period and authorize your payment method on file to be billed automatically each Subscription Period by DrQuitLLC’s third-party payment processor for the entire length of your Subscription, regardless of whether or not you have used the Services during the Subscription Period, until your Subscription ends or is canceled. If any Subscription Fee is not paid in a timely manner, or your transaction cannot be processed, we reserve the right to suspend, disable, cancel or terminate your Subscription. You will be responsible for paying all past due amounts. You acknowledge that billing may not occur on the exact same date of each month.

Other Fees.
‍
You agree to pay all other fees and charges associated with your User Account that are not included in the Subscription Fee, including, for example, appointment no-show fees, cancellation fees or late rescheduling fees, cost of prescribed medication and refills, costs of laboratory tests, single visits with a Provider that are not part of a Subscription, co-pays, co-insurance and deductibles and other costs not covered by your health insurance plan, and any fees for any Services that are not charged on a Subscription model (collectively, “Other Fees”), on a timely basis and according to the terms and the rates presented to you. By using the Services and incurring such Other Fees, you authorize us to bill and charge your payment method on file for such Other Fees in full.

Trials and Promotional Fees.
‍
DrQuitLLC may periodically offer discounts to its Services in the form of free trial periods or promotional fees. The terms of those discounts will be stated at the time you sign up or when you purchase a specific Service or product. If your Subscription includes a free trial, you will not be charged the applicable Subscription Fee during your free trial. To obtain the free trial, you will be required to provide a credit card or other payment method in order to ensure uninterrupted access and continued use after the expiration of the free trial. Upon completion of your free trial, your Subscription will automatically convert into a paid Subscription and your payment method will be charged the applicable Subscription Fee unless you have canceled your Subscription. If your Subscription includes a promotional fee, you will be charged the promotional fee for the relevant number of billing periods and upon completion of that period, your Subscription will continue to automatically renew at the full, non-promotional rate. You may cancel your Subscription during your free trial or promotional period to avoid being charged the full applicable Subscription Fee in accordance with Section 5 (Cancellations and Refunds).

You may only be permitted to use one free trial or promotional fee offer. If your Subscription is ever canceled or terminated for any reason, and you purchase an additional Subscription, you may not be eligible for a free trial or to take advantage of another promotional fee offer.

Insurance.
‍
If you have health insurance, your insurance plan may cover all or a portion of your use of our Services, including costs associated with the Telehealth Services, prescribed medication filled by the Pharmacies, and/or laboratory products and services provided by the Labs through the use of a SuperBIll. Subject to the terms of any written agreement between DrQuitLLC and the insurance plan, if you provide information about your health insurance to us, that will be deemed your authorization for DrQuitLLC, Providers, the Pharmacies, the Labs and/or one of their affiliates or partners to submit claims, compile a SuperBill, and bill for Services on your behalf and share necessary information with the insurance plan to process payments and reimbursements. DrQuitLLC are not enrolled with state health care programs such as Medicaid.
‍
You are responsible for requesting a SuperBill after each appointment and it will not automatically be processed at the conclusion of service. Please allow up to 5-7 Business days for this request to be processed.

Your insurance policy is a contract between you and your insurance plan, and it is your responsibility to know your benefits, including if your insurance has any deductible, co-payment, co-insurance, out-of-network, usual and customary limit, prior authorization requirements or any other type of benefit limitation for the Services you receive, and how your benefits will apply to your payments. If you purchase Services with your insurance plan, you authorize DrQuitLLC or one of its affiliates or third party partners, including the Pharmacies and/or Labs, to charge your payment method on file, if applicable, and any fees not covered by your insurance, such as co-pays, co-insurance, deductibles, and Other Fees. If all or any portion of the Services are not covered or paid by your insurance plan for any reason or you do not have health insurance, you understand that you will be ultimately responsible for all fees and costs arising out of your use of the Services and agree to pay the full amount of all Subscription Fees and Other Fees associated with your User Account. Questions about non-payment should be directed to your insurance plan. You agree to inform DrQuitLLC or your Provider immediately if you lose your health insurance and/or can no longer pay for treatment.

Changes to Subscription Fees, Other Fees or Subscription Features.

All fees published on the Platform are set by DrQuitLLC in its sole discretion and we may change our fees from time to time. DrQuitLLC will send notice of upcoming automatic renewal prior to renewing your Subscription as required by law. We may change the Subscription terms, Subscription Fees or Other Fees at any time on a going forward basis in our discretion. If the pricing for your Subscription increases, we will notify you, and provide you an opportunity to change or cancel your Subscription before applying those changes to your User Account or charging you in connection with an automatic renewal. We may choose in our sole discretion to add, modify, or remove benefits and features from a Subscription. Your continued enrollment in your Subscription after the changes become effective will constitute your acceptance of the changes. If you do not wish to continue your Subscription at the revised rates and/or terms, you must let DrQuitLLC know prior to the end of your then current Subscription Period in accordance with Section 5 (Cancellations and Refunds) (so that at the end of that Subscription Period, your Subscription will end), otherwise the revised rate and/or terms will apply on and from the next Subscription Period.

Third-Party Payment Processor.

All credit card, debit card and other monetary transactions on or through the Platform occur through an online payment processing application that is provided by a third-party payment processor(s). DrQuitLLC itself does not collect or store payment card information. If our third-party payment processor is unable to secure funds from your payment method for fees that are due for any reason, including, but not limited to, insufficient funds or insufficient or inaccurate information provided when submitting electronic payment, DrQuitLLCmay undertake further collection action, including application of fees to the extent permitted by law, and reserves the right to suspend or terminate your User Account or Services.

Waiver of Claims and Unauthorized Payments.  

You agree to waive all claims against DrQuitLLC and its third-party affiliates, including DrQuitLLC’s third-party payment processor(s), related to any unauthorized payments made on or through the use of your User Account outside of DrQuitLLC’s control, regardless of whether such payments are authorized or unauthorized. However, you may submit a claim of the unauthorized payment to DrQuitLLC so that DrQuitLLC can conduct a reasonable investigation as it sees fit under the circumstances. If appropriate, DrQuitLLC will assist in correcting the alleged unauthorized payment, provided that such claim is received by DrQuitLLC within thirty (30) days of the disputed charge or payment.

5. Cancellations and Refunds.
‍
Canceling Subscription.

When you cancel a Subscription, you cancel only future charges associated with your Subscription. You may initiate your cancellation at any time, but the cancellation will become effective at the end of your current Subscription Period. You can cancel by clicking “Cancel Subscription” in your User Account no later than the day before your next scheduled billing date to cancel your Subscription.  If you do not cancel before this time, DrQuitLLC reserves the right to charge you for the next Subscription Period and cancel your Subscription in the following Subscription Period.

Except as otherwise stated herein or required by applicable law, no refunds will be provided for a partial Subscription Period, but you will continue to have access to the Subscription until the next billing cycle. Notwithstanding any other terms, DrQuitLLC reserves the right to cancel your Subscription in its entirety at any time and for any reason, with or without prior notice. In the event that DrQuitLLC exercises its right to cancel a Subscription, it will refund the current Subscription Period’s Subscription Fee as required by law.

Once you cancel your Subscription, your access to and use of the Services will continue to the end of your then current Subscription Period and thereafter end, but you will continue to have access to certain information maintained within User Account, such as personal health information. Please note that all Services, including the delivery of any medications prescribed through the Services and access to refills through the Pharmacies, will end once cancellation takes effect. You should talk to your Provider before discontinuing your medication. Abruptly stopping certain medications can impact your health.

Medication orders may be canceled before they are shipped. Any other Services that are paid per Service (e.g., single visits with a Provider not part of a Subscription) may be rescheduled but are not cancellable after purchase.

Refunds.

All purchases are final and once paid, all fees, including Subscription Fees, are non-refundable regardless of whether Services are utilized, except as prohibited by applicable law. However, you may cancel your Subscription at any time in accordance with Section 5 (Cancellations and Refunds) to stop incurring future Subscription Fees. We reserve the right to issue refunds or credits at our sole discretion. If we issue a refund or credit in one instance, we are under no obligation to issue the same refund or credit in the future.

All medication orders are final once shipped by the Pharmacies and the order cannot be returned or refunded. This is to protect the integrity of the medication and the health of the patient, as well as to comply with applicable laws. However, if you think you have received the wrong medication, have received an order in error, or have any other questions, please contact us at support@drquit.info.

‍
6. Prescription Terms and Pharmacy Services.
‍
Certain medications available through the Platform require a valid prescription by a Provider licensed to prescribe the specific medication. You will not be able to obtain a prescription medication unless you have completed a consultation with one of the licensed Providers through the Platform, the Provider has determined the prescription is appropriate for you, and the Provider has written a prescription.

DrQuitLLC does not endorse any specific medication, pharmacy, or pharmacologic product. There is no guarantee a prescription will be written by using the Services. If a Provider prescribes a medication, the Provider will limit supply based upon applicable regulations and will only prescribe a medication as determined in the Provider’s own discretion and professional judgment. Providers may also deny care for actual or suspected misuse of the Services for prescriptions.

You agree that any prescriptions that you acquire from a Provider will be solely for your personal use. All prescription medications are provided subject to all warnings, limitations, and restrictions published or provided by the medication’s manufacturer. You agree to fully and carefully read all provided product information and labels and to contact your Provider, or another physician or pharmacist, if you have any questions regarding the prescription. You acknowledge and understand that your use or misuse of prescription medications obtained through our Platform or Services may result in undesirable or unexpected consequences. DrQuitLLC does not accept any liability for the consequences arising from the application, use, or misuse of any prescription medications made available through the Platform or Services, including any injury or damage to any person or property as a matter of negligence, or otherwise, including your failure to comply with any warning labels attached to the prescription products.

Pharmacy Services.

If you receive a prescription as a result of the Services, you may select one of the Pharmacies to fulfill and ship your prescription directly to your address. However, you always have the option to instruct your Provider or to email support@drquit.info to transmit that prescription to a different pharmacy of your choice. Otherwise, you hereby consent to using the Pharmacies. Please note that the cost of medication is not included in your Subscription Fee and will be billed separately. If, however, your Subscription includes a medication plan and you use the Pharmacies to dispense and deliver any prescribed medication, the shipping cost for your medication is included in your Subscription Fee.

Prescriptions fulfilled by the Pharmacies may not use child-resistant packaging and prescriptions may not be dispensed in child-resistant containers. You acknowledge that you must keep prescription medication safe, secure, and out of the reach of children.

If you select to use the Pharmacies, you give us consent to send and disclose to the Pharmacies all information provided by you, your health care records, and other applicable health care information and personal information (such as your name, location and demographic information) that is required to provide you the pharmacy services.

Controlled Substances Terms.
In certain situations, your Provider may deem that it is medically appropriate to prescribe a controlled substance as part of your treatment plan. In general, these medications are highly addictive and must be taken only as prescribed by your Provider. Providers are required to provide care consistent with the prevailing standards of medical practice and follow evidence-based clinical guidelines but make no assurances or guarantees as to the results of treatment.

If you are prescribed a controlled substance through the Services, you understand and agree as follows:

Any prescribed controlled substance will be a short-term add-on to your treatment plan. The medication will be a temporary bridge to help manage your symptoms until your long-term medication takes full effect. The medication will only be taken on an as-needed basis, so it will not be automatically refilled. There are rare exceptions to this rule, depending on evidence-based clinical guidelines.

Prescribed controlled substances will not be used as a monotherapy and will be paired with a non-controlled medication option for long-term care. There are rare exceptions to this rule, depending on evidence-based clinical guidelines.

If used incorrectly, prescribed controlled substances may cause dependence or addiction. If used correctly based on established clinical guidelines, they may be an important part of your treatment plan. Your prescribing Provider has explained to you the potential risks, the potential short- and long-term side effects; the risk of drug interactions and over-sedation; and the risk of misuse and overdose, and you understand and accept these risks.

Before prescribing controlled substances, we may require you to provide additional information, such as your medical records and/or proof of prior prescriptions, or your Provider may review information from the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program in your state of residence regarding your prior receipt of controlled substances.

If you are currently taking Suboxone or Methadone, you will not be considered for a benzodiazepine prescription.

You will keep (and be on time for) all your scheduled appointments with your Provider and other members of your treatment team and will participate in all other types of treatment that you are asked to participate in.

You will keep the prescribed controlled medication safe, secure, and out of the reach of children. If the medicine is lost or stolen, you understand it will not be replaced until your next appointment and may not be replaced at all.

You will take your medication as instructed by your Provider and pharmacist and not change the way you take it without first talking to the Provider or other members of your treatment team.

You will not seek early refills. You understand that prescriptions will be filled only during scheduled visits with your Provider.
‍
You will make sure you have an appointment for refills. If you are having trouble making an appointment, you will tell a member of your treatment team immediately.

You will not sell medications prescribed through the Services or share medications with others. You understand this is illegal and if you do so, your treatment will be stopped and you may be reported to law enforcement and/or other governmental authorities.

You will use only one pharmacy to get all controlled substances medications.

You will tell the Provider all the other medications that you take, and let the Provider know right away if you have a prescription for a new medicine.

You will not get any controlled substances or other medications that can be addictive such as benzodiazepines (Klonopin, Xanax, Valium) or stimulants (Ritalin, amphetamine) from any other prescriber without telling your Provider or a member of your treatment team before you fill that prescription. You understand that the only exception to this is if you need pain medicine for an emergency or other necessary medical purpose and then for only a period of a few days.

You will not use illegal drugs such as heroin, cocaine or amphetamines. You understand that if you do, your treatment may be stopped.

7. Laboratory Products and Services.

Certain laboratory products and services that are available through the Platform, including at-home testing kits and in-person testing services to monitor the effects of certain prescribed medication or for diagnostic purposes (“Lab Tests”), require a valid prescription or order by a licensed Provider. You will not be able to obtain Lab Tests unless a Provider has determined that the Lab Test is appropriate for you and the Provider has prescribed or ordered the Lab Test. These Lab Tests offered through the Platform can only be ordered and fulfilled through the Labs. If you receive Lab Tests from a Lab through the Platform, you may be required to go to an in-person location of the applicable Lab to be tested or at-home testing materials will be shipped to you by the applicable Lab. In certain cases, regularly scheduled Lab Tests are required in order to properly and safely manage your treatment plan.

If your Provider suspects that you are misusing the Services for prescriptions or engaging in other prohibited activities relating to your medication, your Provider may order and require that you obtain a laboratory test to confirm that misuse is not taking place before continuing your treatment or prescribing or refilling any medications (an “Investigative Lab Test”). Typically, these are in-person tests that may be ordered by your Provider to be completed at any local laboratory of your choice.

If you refuse to or do not timely complete any Lab Test or Investigative Lab Test, or if your test results present evidence that you have been misusing your prescriptions or engaging in other prohibited activities under these Terms of Use, your Provider reserves the right to modify or cease your treatment plan and/or medications based on their independent professional judgment, you may no longer be eligible to receive further prescriptions through the Platform, and/or your Subscription or User Account may be suspended, canceled or terminated in DrQuitLLC’s sole discretion.

8. Intellectual Property.

9. Communications.

Consent to Electronic Communications. By opting in to use DrQuitLLC’s Platform and Services, you affirmatively consent to conduct business electronically with DrQuitLLC and you agree that (a) all agreements and consents can be signed electronically, and (b) all notices, disclosures, and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such notices and other communications be in writing.

Consent to Receive Calls and Text Messages. By providing your mobile number, sending DrQuitLLC an initial text, or otherwise opting-in to receive telephonic communications from DrQuitLLC, you are agreeing to be contacted by or on behalf of DrQuitLLC at the mobile number you have provided, including calls and text messages, regarding your User Account and use of the Platform and Services. These text messages or calls may be automated and may include information about your treatment plan, appointment reminders, order confirmations, shipping notifications, messages from your Provider, and other transactional messages. You may also sign up to receive promotional and marketing calls and text messages. You are not required to consent to promotional and marketing calls and text messages as a condition of purchase. You may update your notification preferences from DrQuitLLC at any time by going through your User Account. By consenting to receive DrQuitLLC text messages, you represent that you are the subscriber of the cellular service at the mobile number provided or that you are authorized by the subscriber to sign-up for texts.

DrQuitLLC does not charge you for our text message program. But if you enroll in text messages from DrQuitLLC, you understand and agree that: (1) you will be responsible for any message and data rates that may apply for any messages sent to you from DrQuitLLC and to DrQuitLLC from you, (2) message frequency may vary, and (3) neither DrQuitLLC, nor your or DrQuitLLC’s mobile carriers, are liable for delayed or undelivered messages. If you have any questions about your text plan or data plan, it is best to contact your wireless provider.

We may send you one or more welcome messages or administrative messages, such as (in some cases), a request to confirm your opt-in. After that, you will receive recurring text messages, and the specific amount may vary depending on how you use our Services (e.g. if you communicate with us through SMS, or if you send a HELP request).

Our text messages are supported on all U.S. carriers. Please note, however, that the supporting mobile carriers may change without notice, and the particular text message program you join may be limited to specific carriers.

You can opt out of marketing text messages from DrQuitLLC at any time by texting the word “STOP” to a text message from DrQuitLLC. After you send the text message “STOP” to us, we will send you a text message to confirm that you have been unsubscribed. After this, you will no longer receive text messages from DrQuitLLC unless and until you re-consent to receiving text messages again. You also understand and agree that we have provided you with reasonable methods of opting out, and that any other method of opting out, including, but not limited to, texting words other than “STOP” or verbally requesting one of our employees to remove you from our list, is not a reasonable means of opting out. Please be advised that if you opt out of marketing text messages, DrQuitLLC may still send you transactional text messages about your User Account or use of the Platform and Services.

You can opt out of transactional text messages by updating your notification preferences in your User Account. We may send you a text message to confirm your opt out of transactional text messages. Please note that if you withdraw your consent to receive text messages, some Platform features and certain Services may no longer be available to you and you may not receive important and helpful information and reminders about your Services.

If you have revoked consent and want to re-enroll in receiving transactional text messages, you can re-enroll by updating your notification preferences in your User Account.

If you are experiencing issues with DrQuitLLC’s text messaging program, you can text the word “HELP” to a text message from DrQuitLLC for more assistance, or you can get help directly at (413) 438-7848 or support@drquit.info.

Sensitive Communications.

You understand that while DrQuitLLC takes your privacy and the security of your health and other sensitive information very seriously, the transmission of information over the internet and mobile networks is not 100% secure. Text messages and emails that you send to or receive from DrQuitLLC outside of DrQuitLLC’s Platform (including off-Platform communications with Providers) are not encrypted, which means that it is possible they may be intercepted by third parties. If you choose to send or receive information about your health or any other sensitive information by text message or email outside of DrQuitLLC’s Platform, you do so at your own risk. By opting into text messages, you consent to sending text messages to DrQuitLLC, and receiving text messages from or on behalf of DrQuitLLC, that are not encrypted. Likewise, by emailing DrQuitLLC or giving DrQuitLLC your email, you consent to receiving unencrypted emails messages from or on behalf of DrQuitLLC.

14. Dispute Resolution.
‍
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

We will try to work in good faith to resolve any issue you have with the Platform and Services if you bring that issue to the attention of our customer service department. However, we realize that there may be rare cases where we may not be able to resolve an issue to a customer’s satisfaction. If you have a dispute with us, you agree to resolve such dispute on an individual basis in accordance with the provisions set forth below.

Initial Dispute Resolution.

Our customer support department is available to address any concerns you may have regarding the Platform or Services. The parties shall use their best efforts through this support process to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement and engage in good faith negotiations which shall be a condition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. Failure to engage in this process could result in the award of fees against you in arbitration. To adequately engage in initial dispute resolution, each party must notify the other party, in writing, of the facts of the dispute and all damages claimed. Such a writing must be sent to (a) the user’s email address on file with DrQuitLLC, or (b) DrQuitLLC 10676 Colonial Blvd ste 30 #515, Fort Myers, FL 33913(“Dispute Notification”). The party receiving the Dispute Notification has thirty (30) days from receipt of the Dispute Notification to respond. The other party then has 15 days to reply to the response.

Agreement to Arbitrate.

If the parties do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of 30 days from the time informal dispute resolution begins under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, subject to the terms set forth below.

Except as explicitly set forth in this Section 14, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms of Use, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Use are void or voidable; whether a claim is subject to arbitration, any dispute regarding the payment of administrative or arbitrator fees (including the timing of such payments and remedies for nonpayment); your relationship with DrQuitLLC, the Providers, the Pharmacies, and/or the Labs; any disputes with Providers and/or relating to the Platform or Services or products provided through the Platform; your User Materials; the threatened or actual suspension, deactivation, or termination of your User Account; payments made by you or any payments made or allegedly owed to you; any promotions, benefits, or other offers; and any other federal and state statutory and common law claims. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator shall also be empowered to consolidate claims raised between the same parties to a single arbitration proceeding. The parties agree that the arbitrator may allow the filing of dispositive motions if they are likely to efficiently resolve or narrow issues in dispute. The arbitrator’s award shall be written and binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration.

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court: there is no judge or jury in arbitration; discovery in arbitration may be more limited than discovery in litigation; and court review of an arbitration award is limited. This agreement to arbitrate (“Arbitration Terms”) also applies to claims between you and any Providers, the Pharmacies, and the Labs, and such parties will be considered intended third-party beneficiaries of these Arbitration Terms. As used in these Arbitration Terms, the “Arbitral Parties” shall refer to DrQuitLLC, any Providers, the Pharmacies, and the Labs.

Unless you, DrQuitLLC and the applicable Arbitral Parties otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class, collective, consolidated or representative proceeding.

The arbitration will be administered by JAMS in accordance with the provisions of its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”), excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class or representative actions and except that each party will be permitted at least one deposition unless forbidden by JAMS. If for any reason JAMS is unable to administer arbitration, either party may apply to a court to appoint an arbitrator pursuant to 9 U.S.C. section 5. The JAMS Rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at (800) 352-5267. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms of Use, you will be required to pay $250 to initiate the arbitration. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, the arbitrator may require DrQuitLLC to pay the additional cost. You are responsible for your own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, DrQuitLLC will pay the remaining filing and arbitrator fees for the arbitration, provided your claim does not exceed $75,000. For claims above $75,000, fees and costs will be determined in accordance with applicable JAMS rules. The arbitration rules permit you to recover attorney’s fees in certain cases. The parties agree that JAMS has discretion to modify the amount or timing of any administrative or arbitration fees due under JAMS’s rules where it deems appropriate, provided that such modification does not increase the costs to you, and you waive any objection to such fee modification. The parties also agree that a good-faith challenge by either party to the fees imposed by JAMS does not constitute a default, waiver, or breach of these Arbitration Terms while such challenge remains pending before JAMS, the arbitrator, and/or a court of competent jurisdiction.

The Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) will govern the interpretation and enforcement of these Arbitration Terms. It is your, DrQuitLLC’s, and the Arbitral Parties’ intent that the FAA and JAMS Rules will preempt all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA and JAMS Rules are found to not apply to any issue that arises under these Arbitration Terms or the enforcement thereof, then that issue will be resolved under the laws of the State of Florida. These Arbitration Terms govern to the extent it conflicts with the JAMS Rules or FAA.

Any arbitration demand or counterclaim asserted by either party must contain sufficient information to provide fair notice to the other party of the asserting party’s identity, the claims being asserted, and the factual allegations on which they are based. The arbitrator and/or JAMS may require amendment of any demand or counterclaim that does not satisfy these requirements.

Unless you, DrQuitLLC and the applicable Arbitral Parties otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you, DrQuitLLC and any applicable Arbitral Parties submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules. Subject to the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration. The arbitrator has the right to impose sanctions for any claims the arbitrator determines to be frivolous or improper (under the standard set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11).

The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the JAMS Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. The prevailing party in arbitration will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law.

Class Action Waiver.

YOU, DRQUITLLC, AND THE ARBITRAL PARTIES MUTUALLY AGREE TO WAIVE OUR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES IN A COURT OF LAW BY A JUDGE OR JURY AND AGREE TO RESOLVE ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE AGAINST EACH OTHER ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS IN ARBITRATION. This will prohibit you from bringing any class, collective, or consolidated action against DrQuitLLC or any of the Arbitral Parties, and will also prohibit you from participating in or recovering relief under any current or future such actions brought against DrQuitLLC or any of the Arbitral Parties by someone else.

Exception - Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims.

Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an action in state or federal court to protect its intellectual property rights (“intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also elect to have disputes or claims resolved in a small claims court that are within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction. Either party may also seek a declaratory judgment or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction regarding whether a party’s claims are time-barred or may be brought in small claims court in your state and county of residence. Seeking such relief shall not waive a party’s right to arbitration under this agreement.

30-Day Right to Opt Out.

You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to the following email address: legal@drquit.info The notice must be sent within 30 days of May 13, 2022 or your first use of the Platform, whichever is later, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those paragraphs. Your notice must include your name and address, the email address you used to set up your DrQuitLLC User Account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, DrQuitLLC also will not be bound by them, but all other parts of these Terms of Use will continue to apply to you.

Changes to this Section.

DrQuitLLC will provide 30 days’ notice of any changes affecting the substance of this Section 14. Changes will become effective on the 30th day. If you continue to use the Platform or its Services after the 30th day, you agree that any unfiled claims of which DrQuitLLC does not have actual notice are subject to the revised clause.

15. Third-Party Services.
‍
Parties other than DrQuitLLC, including but not limited to the Providers, third-party Pharmacies, the Labs and payment processors, provide services or sell products through the Services (collectively, “Third Parties”), and DrQuitLLC may also make available to you certain services, products, content or resources provided, manufactured, distributed or sold by Third Parties (“Third-Party Goods and Services”), including links to and advertisements related to Third-Party Goods and Services.

16. General Terms.
‍
Governing Law.

These Terms of Use shall be governed in all respects by the internal substantive laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Except for claims that must be arbitrated pursuant to the Arbitration Terms, any claim or dispute arising in connection with the Platform or Services shall be decided exclusively by a court of competent jurisdiction located in Lee County, Florida, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of and venue in such courts and waive any and all jurisdictional and venue defenses or objections otherwise available.

Force Majeure.

You understand and acknowledge that the Platform may be subject to limitations, delays and other problems inherent in the use of third-party communication networks and facilities that are outside of DrQuitLLC’s control, and thus DrQuitLLC will not be responsible for any delays, failures, or damages associated with the Platform which result from any system delays, downtimes, interruptions or other failures of or problems with the Platform which are outside of DrQuitLLC’s control. We will not be deemed to be in breach of or liable for any breach of these Terms of Use or our Privacy Policy due to any event or occurrence beyond our reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of God, terrorism, war, invasion, epidemic, pandemic, acts of governmental authorities and changes in federal, state or local laws and regulations applicable to the provision of Services, including Telehealth Services, failures of any public networks, electrical shortages, earthquakes or floods, civil disorder, strikes, fire, or other disaster.

Amendments to Terms of Use.

Except as provided in the Dispute Resolution provision in Section 14, DrQuitLLC may revise these Terms of Use from time to time without notice to you. If we determine a revision to the Terms of Use, in our sole discretion, is material, we will notify you as required by law. These changes will be posted on this or a similar page of the Platform. By continuing to access or use our Platform or Services after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. We encourage you to read these Terms of Use periodically.

Severability and Entire Agreement.

In the event that any of the Terms of Use are held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms of Use shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between DrQuitLLC and you pertaining to the subject matter hereof.

No Waiver.

No waiver of any term of the Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and DrQuitLLC’s failure to assert any right or provision under the Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Assignment.

You may not assign, transfer, or delegate the Terms of Use or any part thereof without DrQuitLLC’s prior written consent. DrQuitLLC may freely transfer, assign, or delegate all or any part of the Terms of Use, and any rights or duties hereunder or thereunder. The Terms of Use will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of your and DrQuitLLC’s heirs, successors, and permitted assignees.

No Third Party Rights.

By accepting these Terms of Use, you acknowledge and agree that any Services you receive from the Providers, the Pharmacies or the Labs through the Platform are also subject to these Terms of Use, and that the Providers, the Pharmacies and the Labs are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms of Use. Otherwise, unless expressly stated in the Terms of Use to the contrary, nothing herein is intended to create or establish third-party beneficiary status rights or their equivalent in any other referenced individual, subcontractor or third party, and, except as specifically set forth in these Terms of Use, no third party shall have any right to enforce any right or enjoy any benefit that is created or established under these Terms of Use.
