Clinic Requirements.
Patient Consent: You agree that you shall secure all necessary and legally required informed consents, authorizations, approvals, and permissions required by applicable law, including but not limited to the privacy laws of the jurisdictions applicable to your patient(s), for Seonix to perform the Services. You agree that, prior to or concurrently when referring a patient for a SightScore test, the Clinic will: (1) explain the purpose of the test to the patient; (2) allow the patient ample opportunity to ask questions and gain clarity regarding the SightScore test, the SightScore process, sample retention, data collection and process, and the SeonixBio Patient Consent Form; (3) ensure proper consent it obtained by each patient to allow for the collection and processing of patient genetic materials, biometric material, personally identifiable information, and personally identifiable health information.
Payment: You agree that you will explain to the patient the cost of the Testing Service.
Regulatory: You understand and agree (1) the samples collected are processed by an independent clinical laboratory certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (“CLIA”); (2) the Testing Kids are not intended to diagnosed treat, cure or prevent any disease; (3) Testing Kits obtained through Seonix have not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Although the FDA does not currently clear or approve laboratory-developed tests in the U.S., certification of the laboratory is required under CLIA to ensure the quality and validity of the tests.

Not Prescriptive.
The Services may include clinical decision support tools designed for use by healthcare professionals only to assist you in the delivery of medical care. They should not be viewed as prescriptive or authoritative. Any medication or surgical decisions should be made by a qualified healthcare professional. You alone are responsible for all decisions, acts, and omissions of any persons in connection with the delivery of medical care or other services to any patients. The physician, optometrist or other licensed prescribing professional must consider numerous considerations unique to each patient before deciding what treatment to offer, modify or discontinue. Only the physician can make a complete assessment of the patient and judge the relevance of the information provided in the report to the actual clinical situation. Any adverse outcome connected with following or not following the recommendations found in reports generated using the Services is your responsibility.
Term and Termination.
These Terms of Service are effective when you use or access the Services and remain in effect until these Terms of Service are terminated. Either party may terminate these Terms of Service or your access to the Services at any time, with or without cause, by providing written notice.
Changes to Services.
Seonix reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to make any changes to the Services without prior notice that it deems necessary or useful to (a) maintain or enhance: (i) the quality or delivery of the Services to its clients; (ii) the competitive strength of or market for the Services; or (iii) the Services’ cost efficiency or performance; or (b) to comply with applicable laws and regulations. If any such change causes a material reduction in the entire functionality of the Services, you may terminate these Terms of Service with respect to such Service by providing Seonix with prior written notice within thirty (30) days after such change is made.
Suspension of Services.
Seonix may, in its discretion, suspend or terminate access to the Services in the event that: (i) you or an Authorized User or any third party engages in activities that Seonix reasonably deems a risk to the security or integrity of Seonix, the Services, or that are prohibited pursuant to these Terms of Service; (ii) you fail to pay fees, charges, or any expenses owed to Seonix (if applicable); (iii) you fail to comply with any of these Terms of Service; or (iv) in Seonix’s reasonable opinion it is required to do so by applicable law or regulation. In each case, Seonix shall provide prior notice if practicable, and otherwise prompt notice after the fact. Such suspension will only remain in effect for the duration Seonix deems necessary to address the applicable issue.

Waiver and Severability.
An individual waiver of a breach of any provision of these Terms of Service requires the consent of the party whose rights are being waived, and such waiver will not constitute a subsequent waiver of any other breach. Any provision of these Terms of Service held to be unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability of any other provisions of these Terms of Service, and the unenforceable provision shall be construed to reflect the economic effect of the unenforceable provision.
Entire Agreement.
These Terms of Service, our Privacy Notice, Terms of Use, US Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy and any written contract entered by you with Seonix for such Services constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Seonix regarding the Services and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Services.
