These terms of use (“Terms of Use”) are a contract between you and Wound Reference Inc. (“we”, “our” or “us”) that govern your access to and use of the websites, services and applications we make available to you (“Services”).
You may not use the Services and may not accept these Terms of Use unless you are a licensed medical doctor or other qualified health professional in the United States and good standing in the states in which you practice, a resident in an American Medical Association (“AMA”) approved residency-training program, a medical student enrolled in an AMA approved medical school, a licensed “mid-level provider” (Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner) practicing under the strict supervision of a licensed physician in the United States, a registered nurse, or licensed provider of EMS services.
The Services were created for distribution within the United States (“US”). All medications and pathways were created based on drugs that are FDA-approved. All treatments were created with the intent to comply with US-based best medical practices and regulatory guidelines. As such, the services are intended for use only by US-based practitioners. Any use by practitioners outside the US will be done so strictly at the risk of the user and we will not accept any responsibility for medications or treatments that are not in compliance with best-practices for a particular practitioner’s geographic location.
You may only use the Services in compliance with these Terms of Use and all applicable local, state, and national laws, rules and regulations. We may, without prior notice to you, change or stop providing some or all of the Services.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms of Use, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to access and use the Services for your personal, non-commercial use.
No Substitute for Professional Advice
The Services and the Content (as defined below) are provided for educational purposes only, and any recommendations regarding medical diagnosis and/or medical treatment should be checked with an appropriate medical reference text for accuracy.
With any web-based content, transcription and data-entry errors may occur. Efforts have been undertaken to ensure the accuracy of the data presented to the user. But as such, all dosages of medications should be checked for accuracy of dose and route from an appropriate reference source and a clinical pharmacist.
Recommendations regarding medical diagnosis and/or medical treatment are not meant to be a substitute for professional advice and you, as a health care professional, should use sound clinical judgment, should determine if consultation with a specialist is required, and are solely responsible for all care delivered to your patients.
All modules in the Services are based on evidence-based treatment guidelines. Such guidelines are not all-inclusive and are not able to provide guidance on the best treatment course in every single patient encounter. The Services are general and educational in nature, may not reflect all recent developments or research and may not apply to the specific facts and circumstances of individual patients or treatment situations. Your education, training, experience and judgment must be used to make the best decision in consultation with the patient and their family on the best treatment course.
Reliance on any information you get from the Services AND CONTENT is strictly at your own risk. You should not act or refrain from acting solely on the basis of any recommendations regarding medical diagnosis and/or medical treatment.

Except as expressly provided in these Terms of Use, no part of the Services and no Content may be copied, reproduced, republished, uploaded, posted, publicly displayed, encoded, translated, transmitted or distributed in any way (including “mirroring”) to any other computer, server, website or other medium for publication or distribution or for any commercial enterprise, without our express prior written consent.
You may use information on recommendations (such as references to original research studies, recommendations by medical associations, and similar materials) purposely made available by us for printing from the Services, provided that you (1) not remove any proprietary notice language in all copies of such documents, (2) use such information only for your personal, non-commercial informational purpose and do not copy or post such information on any networked computer or broadcast it in any media, (3) make no modifications to any such information, and (4) not make any additional representations or warranties relating to such documents.
This Agreement and the continuation of Services is subject to compliance by each Party of all laws, regulations, rules, executive orders, circulars, opinions, interpretive letters and other official releases that are applicable to the Parties (collectively, “Laws”). Each Party shall be solely responsible for their respective compliance with Laws.

Applicable Law and Disputes
The Services are controlled and operated by us in the state of California. The formation, construction and interpretation of these Terms of Use is to be controlled by the laws of the state of California regarding agreements between California residents entered into and to be performed within California, excluding any rule or principle that would refer to and apply the substantive law of any other state or jurisdiction.
If a dispute arises between you and us, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. Accordingly, you agree that we will resolve any claim or controversy at law or equity that arises out of or relates to these Terms of Use or your use of the Services (a “Claim”) as described below or as we and you otherwise agree in writing. Before resorting to these alternatives, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to seek a resolution at info@clinipaths.com.
You agree that any Claim you may have against us must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in Davidson County, California, except as otherwise agreed by the parties or as described below. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Davidson County, California for the purpose of litigating all such Claims.
For any Claim (excluding Claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000, either party to the Claim may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration (and if such election is made, the Claim must be arbitrated as provided herein). In the event a party elects arbitration, they shall initiate such arbitration through an established alternative dispute resolution (“ADR”) provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: (i) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions; (ii) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and (iii) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Should you file a Claim improperly, we may recover attorneys’ fees and costs up to $1000, provided that we have notified you in writing of the improperly filed Claim, and you have failed to promptly withdraw the Claim.
