Terms of Use
Welcome, and thank you for your interest in Phyxd, Inc., d/b/a Phy (referred to as “Phy,” “we,” “our,” or “us,” herein).
About the Phy Solution. Using three-dimensional volumetric computer vision technology, the Phy Solution (the “Solution”) assesses postural patterns to help inform user’s and their health coaches and professionals regarding posture and musculoskeletal issues and offers options for exercise programs to optimize human movement and performance. Phy is backed by decades of neuromuscular therapy and exercise physiology research and practices as well as data-driven machine learning.
The Terms of Use apply to Phy and the Phy Solution (the term Solution including any and all scans, images, analyses and information (“Content”)). These Terms of Use are a legally binding contract between you and Phy regarding your use of the Solution.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY.
THE TERMS OF USE INCORPORATE THE PHY PRIVACY POLICY.
BY USING THE PHY SOLUTION, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING THE PHY PRIVACY POLICY (COLLECTIVELY, THESE “TERMS”).
If you are not eligible, or do not agree to these Terms, then please do not use the Solution.
Eligibility
The Phy Solution is made available for use by adults. The Phy Solution is not marketed to or intended for children under the age of 18, and we do not knowingly offer the Phy Solution to children under the age of 18, who are not emancipated, without obtaining parental consent. If you are under 18 years of age, and not an emancipated minor, then please do not use or access the Phy Solution at any time or in any manner, except with the consent of your parent or guardian. By agreeing to these Terms, you, and/or your parent or your legal guardian, as applicable, represent and warrant to us: (i) that you are at least eighteen (18) years of age, or with parental or guardian consent, at least (13) years of age; (ii) that you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Solution; and (iii) that your registration and your use of the Solution is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations. If Phy discovers or has reason to believe that the preceding eligibility criteria are not met, it will terminate the account and not reinstate the account until eligibility criteria are met.
How to Use the Phy Solution, Registration and Access
In order to access the Solution, you must either (i) register by providing complete information requested and setting up an account; or (ii) receive access through a coach or health care provider who has created an account on your behalf. The information provided can be updated at any time by accessing your Phy account.
While accounts are individual, you, as the account owner, may grant account access to additional users, such as coaches, healthcare providers, friends or family members. In doing so, you may choose to allow such additional users to retrieve, provide, and/or modify health and other information in your account, or otherwise share your information consistent with such individuals’ legal responsibilities with respect to the privacy and security of such information. If you allow other users to access your account, the Terms of Use, as well as the content of the Authorization between you and such individuals shall apply.
As the account owner, however, you are solely responsible for the activity that occurs through your account and the information shared. We urge you to keep your account password secure, to always log-off from the Solutions when leaving your device unattended, to only grant access to people whom you trust and to constantly monitor such use. Phy will not be liable for any unauthorized use of your account, and you may be liable for the losses of Phy or charges made by unauthorized use. We strongly recommend notifying us immediately of unauthorized use of your account or of any related security breach by writing to us at privacy@phy.health.

DISCLAIMERS; NO WARRANTIES. THE SOLUTION AND ALL CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SOLUTION ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND ON AN “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. PHY SPECIFICALLY (BUT WITHOUT LIMITATION) DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE SOLUTION AND ALL CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SOLUTION, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

NO CONTENT, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE SOLUTION OR ANY CONTENT AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE SOLUTION WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING PHY OR THE SOLUTION THAT IS NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR ALL DAMAGES THAT MAY RESULT FROM YOUR USE OF OR ACCESS TO THE SOLUTION OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SOLUTION. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU USE THE SOLUTION AND USE, ACCESS, DOWNLOAD, OR OTHERWISE OBTAIN CONTENT THROUGH THE SOLUTION AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PERSON OR PROPERTY THAT RESULTS FROM THE USE OF THE SOLUTION OR CONTENT.
SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY PROHIBIT A DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT WILL PHY BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE SOLUTION OR CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER OR NOT PHY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL PHY BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE CONDUCT OF YOU OR ANYONE ELSE IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF THE SOLUTION.
YOU AGREE THAT THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF PHY TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF RELATING TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE THE SOLUTION (INCLUDING ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SOLUTION) OR OTHERWISE UNDER THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU FOR THE SOLUTION.
EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS TO ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THESE TERMS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
Governing Law
These Terms will be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflict of law principles. You and Phy agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within Manhattan Borough, State of New York for the purpose of litigating all such disputes.
Exceptions
We both agree that nothing herein will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our right to (i) bring an individual action in small claims court, (ii) pursue enforcement actions through applicable federal, state, or local agencies where such actions are available, (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law, or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address intellectual property infringement claims.
Notice; Process
A party who intends to seek resolution of a dispute with Phy must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or in the event that we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail (“Notice”). Phy’s address for Notice is: Phyxd Inc. d/b/a Phy, 39 Crosby Street, 2W, NYC, NY 10012. The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Phy may commence a legal proceeding.
No Class Actions
YOU AND PHY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
Further, unless both you and Phy agree otherwise, the court may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
Enforceability
If the Terms regarding dispute resolution are found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of the Terms regarding dispute resolution is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 13 will be null and void and, in such case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 12 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
Modification of the Terms
Phy reserves the right to update or modify these Terms of Use at any time without prior notice, and such changes will be effective immediately upon being posted through the Solution, except as set forth below. Your use of the Solution following any such change constitutes your agreement to be bound by the modified Terms of Use. In the case of material changes to the Terms, Phy will make reasonable efforts to notify you of the change, such as through sending an email to any address you may have used to register for an account, through a pop-up window on the Solution, or other similar mechanism. Material changes to these Terms will be effective upon the earlier of: (i) your first use of the Solution with actual notice of such change, or (ii) thirty (30) days from posting of such change. Disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in accordance with the version of the Terms in place at the time the dispute arose. We encourage you to review these Terms frequently to stay informed of the latest modifications. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no modification to the terms of our agreement to arbitrate disputes will be effective without your express consent, provided that if we propose a change to the terms of our agreement to arbitrate and you do not consent to the change, you must terminate your use of the Solution.
Consent to Electronic Communications
By using the Solution, you consent to receiving certain electronic communications from us as further described in our Privacy Policy. Please read our Privacy Policy to learn more about your choices regarding our electronic communications practices. You agree that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing.
Phy will send non-PHI containing messages using email unless you object.
Secure electronic messaging is always preferred to insecure email, for your convenience, and with your permission, Phy lets you choose whether to receive email communications containing PHI. This email communication is not encrypted and may include messages from your treatment provider, appointment reminders, and other information regarding use of the Solution.
You should consider that standard email is not a secure means of communication. There is some risk that any PHI contained in email may be disclosed to, or intercepted, printed, or stored by, unauthorized third parties. Phy cannot ensure the security or confidentiality of messages sent by email.

General
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference herein, constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Phy regarding your use of and access to the Solution, and except as expressly permitted above may be amended only by Phy in its sole discretion. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights hereunder, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms at any time without notice. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any time thereafter, nor will a waiver of any breach or default of these Terms or any provision of these Terms constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of particular provisions. In the event that any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect. Upon termination or expiration of your account, these Terms, any provision that by its nature or express terms should survive will survive such termination or expiration.
