Your use of certain healthcare providers and pharmacies are at your sole discretion. We do not provide any advice or recommendations regarding such choices. You acknowledge and agree that no part of the Website or Services constitutes medical advice or establishes a physician-patient relationship between you and us. We do not recommend or prescribe any medical treatments or drugs. Such advice comes only from your physician or other authorized provider, neither of whom are employed or engaged by us. Our Services are for informational and educational purposes only. The Services are not a substitute for your doctor or any other healthcare provider.

(b) Initial Questions. The Website may ask you and may require you to answer certain questions in order to access other parts of the Website or Services.

Each Term will automatically renew unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal to the other party at least 30 days prior to the beginning of any renewal Term. If required by applicable law or at our discretion, we may provide you with a reminder of any renewal Term and a means for you to terminate on our Website. Our obligation to provide any Services begins upon the beginning of the applicable Term.

  1.  Indemnification. You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the SPWL Parties from and against any third-party claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to (a) your violation or breach of this Agreement, (b) your use of the Website, (c) any User Submission made by you, including with respect to violations of any other party’s rights, such as intellectual property or other proprietary rights, and laws related to privacy or information security; or (d) your violation of any other party’s rights or applicable law.

If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. You and the Company intend that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Accordingly, you and the Company agree that if any provision is deemed unenforceable, where possible, it will be modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, which may include its deletion.  The Company may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice to you. You may not assign this Agreement or assign, transfer, or sublicense your rights, if any, to access or use the Website or its content, and any attempt by you to do so is void. The Company’s failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive its right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. A waiver will only be binding on the Company if it is in a written document signed by the Company. This Agreement (including any incorporated terms) constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to the Website and its contents. Both you and the Company warrant to each other that, in entering into this Agreement, neither the Company nor you have relied on or will have any right or remedy based upon any statement, representation, warranty, or assurance other than those expressly stated in this Agreement. The preceding sentence will not limit or exclude any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law. No one other than you and the Company, or the Company’s successors and assigns, will have any right to enforce any of this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor the Website create a partnership, joint venture, employment, or other agency relationship between us. You may not enter into any contract on our behalf or bind us in any way.
