After completing registration for Your Account, you will be permitted to access the applicable portion(s) of the Service using an authentication method made available by us which will be linked to Your Account (that authentication method, and any other user IDs, passwords and other credentials associated with Your Account, "Your Access Credentials").

4. Certain Rights and Obligations of Hosts
You may establish a Group as a Host by acquiring a subscription for a Group through Your Account. Members will be required to agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy in order to use the Service to participate in the Group. Hosts may in their discretion require Members of their Group to agree to additional terms in order to participate in the Group, or in certain events or activities conducted by the Group ("Host Terms"). The name and contact information and other personally identifiable information of Members who register to join a specific Group ("Membership Information") will become available to that Group's Host in order to facilitate their membership in the Group and communications. We may also provide Hosts with, or permit Hosts to collect, through the use of AI Tools or otherwise, certain data or insights relating to Members of their Group based on such Members use of the Service (together with Membership Information, "Membership Data"). Membership Data shared by us with Hosts will be shared on an aggregated or anonymous basis. A Host may use the Membership Data solely for purposes related to the Group or the reasonably assumed interests of the Member who has joined the Group. A Host agrees not to: (a) sell the Membership Data to a third-party, or (b) or use or disclose it for commercial purposes unrelated to the Group or the interest of Member who joined the Group. If you are a Host, in your communications with Members and handling of Membership Data, you: (i) will comply with all applicable laws and regulations; and (ii) will honor the restrictions set forth in this Section. If you are a Host with Members in a jurisdiction that requires opt-in consent before sending email, you represent and warrant that you have obtained user consent prior to sending emails outside of the Service. You must provide a means of opting-out of any emails. As a Host of a Group, as between you and Everus you are solely responsible for, and Everus assumes no responsibility for, the Group and management of the Group, including without limitation for User Contributions or User Data you provide to the Group or that is provided by Members of the Group, establishing and administering eligibility requirements or Host Terms for the Group, communicating with Members of the Group, and events or activities conducted for or by the Group. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, you release Everus from any liability for any loss or damage to you arising from the Group and management of the Group, including without limitation for User Contributions or User Data you provide to the Group or that is provided by Members of the Group, establishing and administering eligibility requirements or Host terms for the Group, communicating with Members of the Group, and events or activities conducted for or by the Group, or your failure to comply with this Section.
5. Member Participation in Groups
Everus does not establish or manage any Group, they are established and managed by Hosts. Hosts may establish eligibility requirements for and limit access to their Groups or events or activities within their Groups in their discretion, such as limiting access only to invited individuals and/or to individuals who have agreed to Host Terms, and accordingly you may be restricted or prohibited from joining certain Groups or participating in certain Group events or activities. If you are eligible to participate in a Group, you may join such Group by electing to do so through Your Account. Hosts may further charge you fees for membership in their Group, or for participation in Group events or activities or for other Group matters. Hosts are further responsible for, and may place limitations on, User Contributions or User Data within their Group, and may suspend or terminate your membership in the Group in their discretion. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the conduct of Hosts or of other Members. We further assume no responsibility for, nor do we endorse, screen or approve, the User Contributions or User Data that may be made available to you by or on behalf of the Host within a Group or the User Contributions or User Data of other Members that you may be exposed to by your participation in a Group. You further acknowledge that joining a Group may involve meeting real people and doing real things in the real world, which can sometimes lead to unexpected situations. You acknowledge that some events or activities you may participate in in connection with your participation in a Group carry inherent dangers, such as the risk of illness, bodily injury, disability, or death. By participating in these events or activities, you understand and agree that you have freely chosen to assume these risks. We can't control these events or activities or what happens in the real world, and we are not responsible for it. You should use common sense and good judgment when interacting with others and participating in Group events or activities. We also do not establish and have no control over the eligibility requirements or Host Terms that Hosts may establish and administer for their groups, or for the fees charged by Hosts relating to their group. Notwithstanding that we may enable Hosts to administer membership in their Group through the Service or collect fees on behalf of Hosts through the Service, we take no responsibility for any eligibility requirements or Host Terms or their administration or fees charged by Hosts or for the provision of the Group membership, event, activity or other matter for which they are charged. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, you release Everus from any liability for any loss or damage to you arising from the acts or omissions of a Host or Member or your interactions with them, your participation in any Group, including without limitation any User Contributions or User Data available to you within a Group and any activities or events you participate in in connection with the Group, fees charged by Hosts, or your failure to comply with this Section.

15. Fees and Payments/Automatic Renewal and Cancellation of Subscriptions
(a) Fees We Charge
We charge for certain portions of the Service, and certain portions are free. As of the date of these Terms, we charge subscription fees for hosting Groups through the Service. Subscription fees for hosting Groups through the Service may be based on metrics established by us. For example, we may in our discretion permit hosting of a Group with less than 10 members without assessing a subscription fee but then assess a per Member subscription fee for additional members, or pursuant to a tier-based structure based on the number of active Members in your Group. If you're a Host, you're responsible for paying for the subscription fees related to your Group, including without limitation additional fees associated with increasing membership in your Group. These fees are billed on a regular and recurring basis (unless you cancel your subscription) and may change in the future. We may further in the future implement a new fee, or modify an existing fee, for certain current or future portions of the Service. If we implement a new or modified fee, we will give you notice in advance such as by posting changes on the Service or sending you an email or otherwise communicating the change to you. You agree to pay those fees and any associated taxes for your continued use of the applicable portion of the Service. Unless otherwise stated, all fees and all transactions are in U.S. dollars. Host subscriptions are non-transferable.
(b) Fees Charged by Hosts
Hosts may further impose fees related to their Groups, such as member dues for participating in the Group or an event fee for a Group event. We may may enable you to pay those fees through the Service, and collect such fees on behalf of the Hosts in exchange for a fee for our collection services. Such fees are established by the Hosts, not Everus, and if you wish to dispute any such fee or request a refund, you must do so directly with the Host, as Everus takes no responsibility with respect to such fees other than to collect such fees on behalf of the Host.
(c) Designated Payment Method
In order to use any portion of the Service for which we charge a fee or to pay fees imposed by Hosts, you will be required to designate a method of payment such as a credit card that is acceptable to Everus through Your Account (a "Designated Payment Method"). You represent, warrant and covenant that any Designated Payment Method in Your Account is a valid method of payment that you have the authority to use for payment for fees you owe to Everus, and that any associated information you provide is accurate. You are responsible for updating your Designated Payment Method and associated information in Your Account to ensure compliance with the foregoing representation, warranty and covenant throughout the term of this Agreement.
(d) Payments
You authorize us or our third-party payment processor(s) to charge your Designated Payment Method for the total amount of any fees you owe to Everus or to Hosts, including any applicable taxes and other charges. Fees that we charge or that are imposed by Hosts may be billed on either a recurring (subscription) basis or on a one-time basis. If billed on a one-time basis, fees are payable in advance with no refunds. If billed on a recurring (subscription) basis, the fees are payable in advance of the applicable subscription period with no refunds, and we will automatically bill you for each renewal period until cancellation as provided in clause (d) of this Section below or earlier termination by us in accordance with these Terms.
(e) Automatic Renewal of Subscriptions/Cancellation
If you have subscribed to a portion of the Service that we offer on a subscription basis (i.e. that is billed on a recurring basis), your subscription will automatically renew for additional periods equal to your initial paid subscription period unless cancelled by you as provided in this clause or terminated earlier by us in accordance with these terms. You may cancel your subscription at any time, provided, however, that any such cancelation shall not become effective until the expiration of your then-current subscription term. Except with respect to any cancelation occurring during a free trial, if you cancel your subscription, you will continue to have access to the applicable portion of the Service in accordance with the terms of your subscription for the remainder of the then-current subscription term. EVERUS DOES NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS OR CREDITS WITH RESPECT TO PAID PORTIONS OF THE SERVICE, INCLUDING FOR ANY PARTIALLY-USED SUBSCRIPTION TERMS. To cancel your subscription, please send a written cancelation request via email to Everus at support@everuscares.com and include the phrase "CANCEL MEMBERSHIP" in the subject line. Where and if available, you may also cancel your subscription plan through the membership cancelation function accessible through Your Account. Cancelations of subscriptions will only be effective when submitted in compliance with the requirements of, and as set forth in, this clause (d) of this Section, and we will automatically bill you for each renewal period until cancellation. Automatic renewal and your cancellation of recurring fees charged by Hosts will be in accordance with any Host Terms established by the Hosts, and Everus takes no responsibility with respect to any such fees or their automatic renewal.
(f) Unpaid Amounts
If we are unable to collect payment from your Designated Payment Method, we reserve the right, to be exercised in our sole discretion, to suspend or deactivate Your Account and your access to the Service or the portion to which the payment applies without advance notice. For example, if a Host fails to pay their subscription fee for a Group or otherwise allows their subscription to lapse, access to and use of their Group for Members may be suspended, or the Group (along with all of the information and User Contributions and User Data associated with or posted to that Group) may be terminated and removed from the Service. We may further assess interest on the outstanding balance at a rate equal to the lesser of 10% per annum or the maximum rate allowed by applicable law, calculated from the due date until the date of actual payment. If Your Account or access to the Service or applicable portion of the Service is suspended or deactivated due to non-payment as set forth above, we have no obligation to refund any fees paid to Everus and may assess an additional fee to unsuspend or reactivate Your Account or your access to the Service or applicable portion of the Service after the delinquent payment is received. We will have no obligation to unsuspend or reactivate Your Account or your access to the Services or applicable portion of the Service and may determine whether or not to do so in our sole discretion.
(g) Collection Efforts
You understand if you have an unpaid balance and do not make payment arrangements satisfactory to us, we may initiate collection proceedings. You will be responsible for reimbursing us for all costs and expenses, including reasonable collection agency and attorney's fees, incurred during collection efforts. In order for us or our designated external collection agency to collect your unpaid balance, and where not prohibited by applicable law, you agree that we and our designated external collection agency are authorized to (i) contact you by telephone at the telephone number(s) you have provided, including wireless telephone numbers, which could result in charges to you, (ii) contact you by sending text messages (message and data rates may apply) or emails, using any email address you provide and (iii) methods of contact may include using pre-recorded/artificial voice message and/or use of an automatic dialing device, as applicable. Furthermore, you consent to us and our designated external collection agency sharing your personal contact and account related information with third party vendors in connection with collection efforts.
(h) Lost or Stolen Payment Methods
If your Designated Payment Method or any other payment methods associated with Your Account is lost or stolen, you are responsible for immediately reporting such event to us by deleting that payment method from Your Account, or if you do not have access to the internet, informing our customer support team pursuant to the contact information at the end of this document. You remain liable for all fees using any payment method associated with Your Account your until you have reported the payment methods as lost or stolen to us as provided in this Section.
(i) Taxes
Fees are exclusive of taxes, duties, levies, tariffs, and other governmental charges (collectively, "Taxes"). You are responsible for payment of all Taxes and any related interest and/or penalties resulting from your use of the Service, other than any taxes based on the net income or property of Everus.
(j) Free Trials
We may offer free trials of subscriptions or other portions of the Services for which we charge. We will inform you of the length of the free trial. In certain cases, your free trial may also automatically convert to a paid subscription upon expiration of your free trial. In such cases we will also inform you of your paid subscription period, and the date and amount of your first payment for the paid subscription, and after your free trial ends your paid subscription will begin and we will automatically bill you for each renewal period until cancellation. You can cancel automatic subscription renewals at any time prior to the renewal as provided in clause (d) of this Section.

23. Dispute Resolution
Please read this Section carefully. It impacts the rights that you may otherwise have. It provides for resolution of most disputes through individual arbitration instead of trial courts and class actions.
This "Dispute Resolution" section survives any expiration or earlier termination of these Terms.
Informal Dispute Resolution
As a condition precedent which must be satisfied prior to initiating any arbitration or other action against the other party, both you and Everus agree to the following dispute resolution procedure: In the event of any controversy, claim, action or dispute arising out of or related to the Service or its use by you or the breach, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of these Terms ("Claim"), the party asserting the Claim must first try in good faith to settle such Claim by providing written notice, by first class or registered mail, to the other party describing the facts and circumstances (including any supporting documentation) of the Claim. The party asserting the Claim must allow the receiving party 30 days in which to respond to or settle the Claim.
For purposes of this Section, notices must be sent as follows:
- If to Everus: to Everus Health, Inc., Attn: Legal, 12600 Hill Country Blvd, Ste R130 #5147, Bee Cave, TX 78738, with a copy emailed to legal@everuscares.com.
- If to you: your mailing address or email address last listed in Your Account.
Arbitration
To the extent you cannot resolve any Claim through the informal dispute resolution procedure set forth above, and except as otherwise set forth herein, a Claim must be resolved through binding individual arbitration. You agree to give up your right to go to court to assert or defend your rights under these Terms and with respect to any Claim. You and Everus each expressly delegate to the arbitrator the authority to determine the arbitrability of any Claim, including the scope, applicability, validity, and enforceability of this arbitration provision.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a written request to Everus at Everus Health, Inc., Attn: Legal, 12600 Hill Country Blvd, Ste R130 #5147, Bee Cave, TX 78738, with a copy emailed to legal@everuscares.com. You agree that the arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") pursuant to its Consumer Arbitration Rules ("AAA Rules"), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules are available on the AAA's website www.adr.org, or by calling the AAA at (800) 778-7879. In accordance with the AAA Rules, you must also send a copy of your written demand for arbitration to AAA when submitting your request to Everus. In the event that the AAA is unable or unwilling to initiate arbitration within fourteen (14) days of receiving a demand for arbitration, arbitration may be conducted by JAMS, Inc. (in accordance with its Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures) or by any other mutually agreeable arbitration administration service. You and Everus each agree that this Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and that this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law and will not be governed by state law. Any arbitration hearings will take place in Travis County, Texas, U.S.A. or elsewhere as required by AAA Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim, and must follow and enforce this Agreement as a court would. Any arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor Everus may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction.
In lieu of arbitration, and notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, either you or Everus may bring any individual claim in small claims court consistent with the jurisdictional and dollar limits that may apply, but only if it is brought and maintained as an individual claim. Additionally, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Section shall prohibit you or Everus from seeking temporary injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent an imminent or stop an actual breach of these Terms.
Class Action and Jury Waiver
You and Everus each agree that any proceeding, whether in arbitration or in court, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If a court or arbitrator determines in an action between you and Everus that this class action waiver is unenforceable, the arbitration agreement set forth above will be void as to you. If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, you and we each waive any right to a jury trial.
24. Digital Millennium Copyright Act
