These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a binding agreement between you and Curon.ai (“Curon”, “we” or “us”). By accessing or using Curon’s medical chatbot service (the “Service”), you agree to comply with and be legally bound by these Terms.  

3. The Service

The Service provides an artificial intelligence-powered chatbot that responds to patient medical inquiries based on training data provided by physicians. Physicians who subscribe to the Service can upload their own medical documents and patient health records to train the chatbot to address common questions from the physician’s patients. The chatbot is intended to provide patients with information about their medical conditions, treatment plans, medications, and other health-related issues, by responding to patient questions with answers derived from the physician-provided training data.

4. Subscription

Access to the Service requires a paid subscription plan. Subscriptions are for a 12-month term that auto-renews for successive 12-month periods unless canceled at least 30 days before the renewal date. Curon may modify subscription fees and introduce new pricing plans by providing subscribers with 30 days prior notice. Subscribers are responsible for all applicable taxes. Subscriptions are non-transferable and non-refundable.

5. Permitted Use

Subscribers may only use the Service to provide responses to their own patients based on training data from the subscriber’s medical practice. Subscribers may not resell or provide third party access to the Service. Subscribers are solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the training data they provide. Curon makes no guarantees about the appropriateness or medical accuracy of the chatbot’s responses. The Service should not be used for diagnosing or treating medical conditions. Patients must always confirm any information provided by the chatbot with their physician.

6. Prohibited Content

Subscribers may not provide any unlawful, harmful, offensive or infringing content to train the chatbot. Curon reserves the right to screen and remove any prohibited training data. Subscribers may not input questions to the chatbot that violate any laws or third party rights.

7. Prompts, Outputs, and Materials

  • Rights to Materials. Our Services may allow you to submit text, documents, or other materials to the Services for processing (“Prompts”). Our Services may generate responses based on your Prompts (“Outputs”). Outputs and Prompts collectively are “Materials.” You represent and warrant that you have all rights, and have provided any notices and obtained any consents, that are necessary for us to process any Prompts you submit to the Services in accordance with our Terms. You also represent and warrant that your submission of Prompts to us will not violate our Terms, our Acceptable Use Policy, or any laws applicable to those Prompts—including intellectual property laws and any privacy or data protection laws governing personal information contained in your Prompts. Except as expressly provided in our Terms, you retain all right, title, and interest—including any intellectual property rights—that you have in and to your Prompts. Subject to this Section 6(a) and without limiting Section 13, we authorize you to use the Outputs for the Permitted Use.
  • Personal Information. If you submit any personal information to us in connection with your use of the Services, whether as part of your Prompts or otherwise, you acknowledge that our Privacy Policy governs our use and processing of such personal information.
  • Nature of Outputs. Responses that the Services generate based on materials submitted by third parties (“Third-Party Outputs”) may be identical or similar to third-party materials or Outputs that the Services generate based on your Prompts. You acknowledge that Third-Party Outputs are not your Outputs and that you have no right, title, or interest in or to any Third-Party Outputs.
  • Reliance on Outputs. We make no representations or warranties with respect to the accuracy of any Outputs. You should not rely on any Outputs without independently confirming their accuracy. Outputs may contain material inaccuracies even if they appear accurate because of their level of detail or specificity. The Services and any Outputs may not reflect correct, current, or complete information.
  • Our Use of Materials. We may use Materials to provide, maintain, and improve the Services and to develop other products and services. We will not train our machine learning models on any Prompts or Outputs that are not publicly available.

8. Modification, Suspension, Discontinuation of the Services

Our Services are novel and will evolve. Unless we specifically state otherwise in a separate agreement with you, we reserve the right to temporarily or permanently modify, suspend, or discontinue the Services or your access to the Services or account at any time, in our sole discretion, without notice to you, and we will not be liable for any change to or any suspension or discontinuation of the Services or your access to them, to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law.

9. Fees and Payment

You may be required to pay fees to us to access or use the Services or certain features of the Services. You are responsible for paying any applicable fees listed on the Services. Except as expressly provided in these Terms, all fees are non-refundable, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law.

Fees may be recurring or based on usage. If these fees are specified to be recurring or based on usage, you agree that we may charge such fees on a periodic basis to the payment method you specify at the time of your initial purchase (your “Payment Method”). By using a Payment Method to pay fees, you are expressly agreeing that we are authorized to charge to the Payment Method the fees, together with any applicable taxes.

Except where we specifically agree otherwise in a separate contract with you, you acknowledge and agree that any fees for access to or use of the Services may increase at any time. Additional fees may apply for additional Services or features of the Services that Curon may make available. In those cases, we will provide you with notice before charging the additional fees. If we charge additional fees in connection with our Services, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the additional fees that you will be charged, before being charged. If you do not accept any such additional fees, we may discontinue your access to the Services or features. You acknowledge and agree that we will not be held liable for any errors caused by third-party payment processors that we may use.

10. Feedback

You grant to us an irrevocable, royalty-free, perpetual license to use all feedback, ideas, or suggested improvements you provide to us (through the Services or otherwise) regarding the Services, Prompts, or Outputs (collectively  “Feedback”), and you agree that we and our Providers may use the Feedback--together with the related Prompts and Outputs or any derivative thereof--in any manner without any payment or credit to you, including in connection with our development, improvement, and marketing of our Services or other products or services.

11. Confidentiality

Curon will treat a subscriber’s training data as confidential information. Curon will only access or use subscriber data to provide and improve the Service. Curon will not share or disclose subscriber data except (a) with the subscriber’s consent, (b) to comply with legal obligations, or (c) as aggregated non-identifiable data for improving the Service.

  • Confidential Information. In connection with your use of the Services, we may provide information that we identify as confidential or proprietary or that should reasonably be considered confidential or proprietary under the circumstances (“Confidential Information”).
  • Obligations. You may only use our Confidential Information in connection with the Permitted Use. You may only share our Confidential Information with your employees and agents who have a need to know such Confidential Information for the Permitted Use and who are bound by obligations of confidentiality at least as protective as those provided in our Terms. You will protect the Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure at least as diligently as you protect your own highly confidential information, and with no less than reasonable care. You are responsible for all uses and disclosures of Confidential Information by anyone to whom you provide access to such Confidential Information (your “Representatives”).
  • Exclusions. Your obligations under this section do not apply to Confidential Information that you can demonstrate (i) was already known to you without confidentiality obligations at the time of disclosure by us; (ii) was disclosed to you by a third party without a duty of confidentiality; (iii) was or becomes publicly available through no fault of yours or of your Representatives; or (iv) was independently developed by you without use of the Confidential Information.

  • YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES AND MATERIALS IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE SERVICES AND OUTPUTS ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS AND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. WE AND OUR PROVIDERS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, RELIABILITY, SECURITY, PRIVACY, COMPATIBILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR TRADE USAGE.
  • TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE, OUR PROVIDERS, OR OUR OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, INVESTORS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “CURON PARTIES”), BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE SERVICES, THE MATERIALS, OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF ANY CURON PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGES, AND EVEN IF THE DAMAGES ARE FORESEEABLE.
  • TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THE CURON PARTIES’ TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE SERVICES, THE MATERIALS, OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO US FOR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICES (IF ANY) IN THE SIX MONTHS PRECEDING THE DATE SUCH DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION FIRST AROSE AND $100. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS ARE ESSENTIAL TO THESE TERMS AND WE WOULD NOT OFFER THE SERVICES TO YOU UNDER THESE TERMS WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS.
  • YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE CURON PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS), AND OTHER LOSSES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR BREACH OR ALLEGED BREACH OF THESE TERMS; YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF, OR ALLEGED USE OF THE SERVICES OR THE MATERIALS; YOUR FEEDBACK; ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES THAT YOU DEVELOP, OFFER, OR OTHERWISE MAKE AVAILABLE USING OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES; YOUR VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAW OR ANY THIRD-PARTY RIGHT; AND ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED FRAUD, INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, OR CRIMINAL ACTS COMMITTED BY YOU OR YOUR EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE SEPARATE COUNSEL AND PARTICIPATE IN OR ASSUME THE EXCLUSIVE DEFENSE AND CONTROL OF ANY MATTER OTHERWISE SUBJECT TO INDEMNIFICATION BY YOU HEREUNDER, IN WHICH CASE YOU AGREE TO COOPERATE WITH US AND SUCH SEPARATE COUNSEL AS WE REASONABLY REQUEST.
  • THE LAWS OF SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE DISCLAIMER OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CERTAIN TYPES OF DAMAGES, SO SOME OR ALL OF THE DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THESE TERMS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

17. Change of Terms

Curon may modify these Terms by notifying subscribers of the changes. Subscribers’ continued use of the Service after notice constitutes agreement to the modified Terms.

18. Arbitration****

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES THROUGH A COURT AND TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE YOUR CASE. THE LAWS OF SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISIONS OR CLASS ACTION WAIVERS, SO SOME OR ALL OF THIS SECTION 15 MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

In order to expedite and control the cost of disputes, Curon and you agree that any legal or equitable claim, dispute, action, or proceeding arising from or related to your use of the Services or these Terms (“Dispute”) will be resolved as follows to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. This applies to all Disputes, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, even if the Dispute arises after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU AND Curon ARE HEREBY WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO JOIN AND PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER THE LAW.

  • Opt-Out of Arbitration Agreement. If you are an individual consumer, you can opt out of arbitration within 30 days of the date that you first agreed to these Terms (including any earlier version). If you are an individual consumer and have previously agreed to arbitration, then you may opt out of any future revisions to the arbitration provision within 30 days of receiving notice of the updated arbitration provision, in which case the prior version of the arbitration provision will apply. To opt out of arbitration (or revisions to this arbitration provision), you must send your name, residence address, username, email or phone number you use for your Services account, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement (or of the revisions to it), and you must send them here: notices@curon.ai.
  • Notice of Dispute. In the event of a Dispute, you or Curon must give the other a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the Dispute, and a proposed solution (a “Notice of Dispute”). You must send any Notice of Dispute by first class U.S. Mail to Curon at 2368a Rice BLVD, Houston, Texas 77005-3418  and also via email to notices@curon.com. Curon will send any Notice of Dispute to you by first class U.S. Mail to your address if Curon has it, or otherwise to your email address. You and Curon will attempt to resolve any Dispute through informal negotiation within 45 days from the date the Notice of Dispute is sent. After 45 days, you or Curon may commence arbitration. An arbitrator will decide any disputes over whether this subsection has been violated, and has the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of arbitrations. Unless prohibited by applicable law, the arbitrator will not administer any arbitration unless the requirements of this subsection have been met.
  • Mediation, Binding Arbitration, and Governing Law. You and Curon will endeavor to settle any Dispute by mediation under the Mediation Rules of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”). The place of mediation will be Houston, Texas. Any Dispute which has not been resolved by mediation as provided herein within 30 days after appointment of a mediator or such time period as you or Curon may otherwise agree, will be finally resolved by binding arbitration as described in this Section 15. You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all Disputes in court before a judge or jury. Instead, all Disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitrator will decide all issues pertaining to arbitrability, including his or her own jurisdictional validity and enforceability of the Agreement (e.g., unconscionability). For the avoidance of doubt, this is not meant to reduce any powers granted to the arbitrator under the applicable JAMS rules. The place of arbitration will be Houston, Texas  Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award.
  • Class Action Waiver. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND Curon AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NEITHER YOU NOR Curon WILL SEEK TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE HEARD AS A CLASS ACTION OR IN ANY OTHER PROCEEDING IN WHICH EITHER PARTY ACTS OR PROPOSES TO ACT IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings. CLASS ACTIONS AND CLASS ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED; for example, you may bring a claim only on your own behalf and cannot seek relief that would affect other Services users. Nor may an arbitrator consolidate arbitrations unless all parties agree. If there is a final judicial determination that the limitations of this paragraph are unenforceable as to a particular claim or a particular request for relief (such as a request for injunctive relief), then the parties agree that such a claim or request for relief will be decided by a court after all other claims and requests for relief are arbitrated.
  • Mass Arbitrations. If 10 or more claimants submit similar Notices of Dispute or file similar arbitrations and are represented by the same or coordinated counsel, all of the cases must be resolved in arbitration in stages using staged bellwether proceedings. You agree to do this even though the resolution of some claims might be delayed. In the first stage, the parties will select up to 5 cases to be filed in arbitration and resolved by separate arbitrators. In the meantime, no other cases may be filed in arbitration. Nor may the arbitration provider accept, administer or demand payment for fees for other arbitrations. If the remaining cases are not settled after the first stage is done, the parties will repeat the process. These staged bellwether proceedings will continue until all cases are resolved. If this subsection applies to a Notice of Dispute, any statute of limitations applicable to the listed claims will be tolled from the time the first cases are selected for bellwether proceedings until the claimant’s Notice of Dispute is selected for a bellwether proceeding or otherwise resolved. A court will have the authority to enforce this subsection, including the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of arbitrations or assessment of related fees.
  • Arbitration Procedures. Any arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”) in effect at the time the Dispute is filed. You may request a telephonic or in-person hearing by following the JAMS Rules. In a dispute involving $10,000 or less, any hearing will be telephonic unless the arbitrator finds good cause to hold an in-person hearing instead. To the extent the forum provided by JAMS is unavailable, Curon and you agree to select a mutually agreeable alternative dispute resolution service and that such alternative dispute resolution service will apply the JAMS Rules. Subject to the limitations of liability contained herein, the arbitrator may award the same damages to you individually as a court could. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only to you individually, and only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim.
  • Arbitration Fees. Whoever files the arbitration will pay the initial filing fee. If Curon files, then Curon will pay; if you file, then you will pay unless you get a fee waiver under the applicable arbitration rules. Each party will bear the expense of that party’s attorneys, experts, and witnesses, and other expenses, regardless of which party prevails, but a party may recover any or all expenses (including attorney’s fees) from another party if the arbitrator, applying applicable law, so determines.
  • Filing Period. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY DISPUTE UNDER THESE TERMS MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR IN AN ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. The one-year period begins on the earliest date when any of the events giving rise to the Dispute first occurs. If a claim is not submitted within one year, it is permanently barred. This period can only be extended by the written consent of both parties. No statutes or provisions of law that would toll or otherwise affect the time in which a party may bring a claim will operate to extend the period limited in this Section 15, and any such statutes and provisions are hereby waived, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law.
  • Enforceability. If the waiver of class actions above is found unenforceable, or this entire section is found unenforceable, then this entire section will be null and void. If that happens, you and Curon agree that the section below on exclusive jurisdiction and governing law will govern any Dispute.
  • ALL CURON PARTIES ARE INTENDED THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES OF THE ARBITRATION CLAUSES IN THIS SECTION 15.

19. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Texas. Exclusive jurisdiction for resolving any disputes related to the Service will lie in state and federal courts located in Harris County, Texas.
