Your Relationship with Us
We make available to individuals who register as users of the Service (“Users”) certain products and services sold or offered by BreatheWorks or by third-party medical providers, pharmacies, or other vendors via our Service. Our Service provides access to prescription fulfillment services offered by various pharmacies and, from time to time, may offer laboratory services from various laboratories. You agree and understand that your prescription(s) may be filled by and transferred between any of the pharmacies, and agree that the Service may do so on your behalf. We may also provide you with access to one or more medical groups who provide healthcare and/or mental health services through the Platform (the “Medical Groups”). These medical groups employ or contract with physicians, allied health professionals, and mental health professionals who offer certain healthcare and/or mental health services through the Platform (“Providers”). By accepting this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that any services you receive from the Labs, Pharmacies, Medical Groups or Providers through the Platform are also subject to this Agreement, and that the Labs, Pharmacies, Medical Groups, and Providers are third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement.
We do not control or interfere with the practice of medicine or mental health care by the Medical Groups or any Providers, each of whom is solely responsible for directing the medical care, mental health care, and/or treatment they provide to you. By accepting this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that BreatheWorks is not a healthcare provider and that by using the Service, you are not entering into a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with BreatheWorks. By using the Service, you may, however, be entering into a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with the Medical Group and/or one or more Providers. Further, we do not control or interfere with any professional service provided by the Labs and Pharmacies, each of which is solely responsible for their provision of professional services rendered via the Service.
By accepting this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that the Medical Group and/or Providers may send you messages, reports, and emails via the Service regarding your diagnosis and/or treatment. You understand and agree that BreatheWorks is not responsible for the security or privacy of communications services you use to receive the aforementioned messages, reports, and emails sent via the Service. You further understand and agree that it is your sole responsibility to monitor and respond to these messages, reports, and emails and that neither BreatheWorks nor the Medical Group nor any Provider will be responsible in any way and you will not hold BreatheWorks, the Medical Group or any Provider liable for any loss, injury, or claims of any kind resulting from your failure to read or respond to these messages or for your failure to comply with any treatment recommendations or instructions from the Medical Group or your Provider(s).
While you are not establishing a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with BreatheWorks, by using the Service, you are establishing a direct customer relationship with BreatheWorks to use the Service, including the purchase of any non-prescription products or non-medical services sold directly to you by BreatheWorks via the Service. In connection with such relationship, you may provide to us, or cause to be provided to us on your behalf, personal information, including health information, that is subject to use by us in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Please refer to the “Privacy Policy” section and the “Protected Information” section below for additional information.
Notice Regarding Your Financial Responsibility for Services
BreatheWorks is enrolled with, federal and state healthcare programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, for the provision of healthcare services or supplies. As such, you may receive payment from such programs for the services or products provided to you by BreatheWorks. Additionally, some of the Labs, Pharmacies, or Providers may also be enrolled in federal or state healthcare programs, which means the services and products provided or made accessible through the Service could be covered benefits under these programs.
By choosing to use the Service, you have the option to obtain products and services through federal or state healthcare programs. You may also choose to obtain products and services on a cash basis if you prefer. If you opt to use a federal or state healthcare program, BreatheWorks, and the Providers will handle the submission of claims for reimbursement to the applicable federal or state healthcare program for the costs of the services and products provided to you through the Service.
By agreeing to use the Service, you acknowledge and agree that:
- You have the option to choose between obtaining products and services through a federal or state healthcare program or on a cash basis.
- If you choose to obtain products and services through a federal or state healthcare program, BreatheWorks and its affiliates will submit a claim for reimbursement on your behalf for all services or products provided to you by or through the Service.
- If you opt to obtain services on a cash basis, you are solely responsible for the costs of any service or product provided to you.
This flexibility allows you to choose the payment method that best suits your needs, ensuring you receive the care and products necessary through the most appropriate financial channels.
Subscription Products and Services
Certain products and services available for purchase through the Service require that you purchase the product and/or service on an automatically renewing subscription basis. For subscription-based products and services, your payment device will be automatically charged at regular intervals as described for that product or service during the checkout process until you cancel your subscription. Your first renewal may be charged early to prevent any discontinuity in treatment. Your subsequent shipments may be charged and shipped up to two (2) days early to accommodate holidays or for other operational reasons to support continuity of treatment. We and/or the Providers may, but are not required to, perform outreach to you from time to time via the Service to request updates to your information and to facilitate ongoing subscriptions. You may cancel a subscription at any time by emailing info@breatheworks.com and directly requesting a cancellation, or by calling 1-800-368-0038 to cancel, or through your online account. Cancellation will take effect at the end of the current subscription period. Your subscription will automatically renew for another subscription period unless you cancel at least two (2) days before the applicable renewal processing date of your subscription. We do not offer refunds for partially used subscription periods, although we may provide refunds on a case-by-case basis in our sole and absolute discretion. We may also offer you the ability to pause your subscription for a specified period of time. If you do not cancel before the end of the pause period, charging to your payment device will resume automatically. We may change our subscription plans and prices from time to time; however, we will provide you advance notice of any price changes or changes to your subscription plans.
In order to simplify the user experience through the Service, you will only see and be required to pay a single “total” subscription price. If a subscription product you purchase required a consultation with a Provider, includes a prescription product that you fill through one of the Pharmacies and/or includes mental health services, then the total price you pay includes the amounts charged for use of the Service, as well as amounts charged by the Pharmacy for the prescription drug and the amount charged by the Medical Group for the services of the Provider, as applicable, which amounts are collected on behalf of and paid to the Pharmacies and Medical Groups, respectively.
Laboratory Products and Services
Certain laboratory products services available through the Platform, including at-home testing kits and services, require a valid prescription or order by a licensed healthcare provider. You will not be able to obtain such laboratory services unless you have completed a consultation with one of the Providers, the Provider has determined the laboratory product and/or service is appropriate for you and the Provider has prescribed or ordered the laboratory product and/or service.
Currently, laboratory products and services offered through the Platform can only be ordered and fulfilled through the Labs and are not available through local laboratories. If you receive laboratory products and/or services from a Lab through the Platform, the applicable testing materials are shipped to you by the applicable Lab, and the costs associated with the laboratory products and services are included in the total charged to you by the Service.
Laboratory products and services available through the Platform are “Third-Party Goods and Services” as described in the Third-Party Goods and Services section of this Agreement.
Consent to Use of Telehealth Services
Telehealth involves the delivery of health and mental health care services using electronic communications, information technology or other means between a healthcare provider or mental health professional and a patient who is not in the same physical location. While the provision of health and mental health care services using telehealth may offer certain potential benefits, there are also potential risks associated with the use of telehealth. Telehealth services are not a substitute for in-person care in all cases. In order to use the Service, you will be required to review and agree to an informed consent regarding the use of telehealth (the “Patient Consent”) that will be provided to you via the Service. You agree that BreatheWorks is a third-party beneficiary of the Patient Consent and has the right to enforce it against you.
Duty to Provide Information, Access, and Connectivity
You are responsible for providing and maintaining, at your own risk, option and expense, appropriate software and hardware capabilities (consistent with any technical, quality or other requirements described in the Service) to enable use of the Service, including but not limited to, a computer or mobile device with a video camera and Internet access. You are solely responsible for any fees, including Internet connection or mobile fees, that you incur when accessing the Service. You also have a duty to provide truthful, accurate and complete information in any forms or other communications you submit to or through the Service. We reserve the right to change the access configuration, including any software, hardware or other requirements of the Service at any time without prior notice.
Privacy Policy
BreatheWorks understands the importance of confidentiality and privacy regarding your personal information. Please see our Privacy Policy for a description of how we may collect, use and disclose your personal information.
Protected Health Information
When you set up an account with BreatheWorks, you are creating a direct customer relationship with BreatheWorks that enables you to access and/or utilize the various functions of the Service as a user. As part of that relationship, you provide information to BreatheWorks, including but not limited to your name, email address, shipping address, and phone number, that we may collect, use and disclose in accordance with our Privacy Policy, and that we do not consider to be “health” or “medical” information.
However, in using certain components of the Service, you may also provide certain medical information that may be protected under applicable laws. BreatheWorks is not a “covered entity” under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, Public Law 104-191, and its related regulations and amendments from time to time (collectively, “HIPAA”). One or more of the Labs, Pharmacies or Medical Groups may or may not be a “covered entity” or “business associate” under HIPAA, and BreatheWorks may in some cases be a “business associate” of a Lab, Pharmacy or Medical Group. It is important to remember that, while state-specific privacy laws may apply, HIPAA does not necessarily apply to an entity or person simply because there is health information involved, and HIPAA may not apply to your transactions or communications with BreatheWorks, the Medical Groups, the Providers, the Labs, or the Pharmacies. To the extent BreatheWorks is deemed a “business associate” however, and solely in its role as a business associate, BreatheWorks, may be subject to certain provisions of HIPAA with respect to “protected health information,” as defined under HIPAA, that you provide to the Labs, Pharmacies, or Medical Groups (“PHI”). In addition, any medical or health information that you provide that is subject to specific protections under applicable state laws (collectively, with PHI, “Protected Information”), will be used and disclosed only in accordance with such applicable laws. However, any information that does not constitute Protected Information under applicable laws may be used or disclosed in any manner permitted under our Privacy Policy. Protected Information does not include information that has been de-identified in accordance with HIPAA.
The Medical Groups and Providers have adopted a Notice of Privacy Practices that describes how they use and disclose Protected Information. By accessing or using any part of the Service, you are acknowledging receipt of the Notice of Privacy Practices from your Medical Group and Provider(s).
By using the Service, you are agreeing that even if HIPAA does apply to BreatheWorks, the Medical Groups, the Providers, the Labs, or the Pharmacies, any information that you submit to BreatheWorks that is not intended and used solely for the provision of diagnosis and treatment by the Medical Group and Providers or prescription fulfillment by the Pharmacies or laboratory services by the Labs, is not considered Protected Information, and will only be subject to our Privacy Policy and any applicable state laws that govern the privacy and security of such information.
Registration; User Accounts, Passwords, and Security
You are obligated to register and set up an account in the Platform in order to access the Service, and the Service is available only to Users who have registered and have been granted accounts with usernames and passwords. For purposes of clarity, information you provide to BreatheWorks in order to register and set up an account on the Platform, including name, username, email address, shipping address and phone number, are not considered Protected Information for purposes of the Protected Health Information section above. You agree to accurately maintain and update any information about yourself that you have provided to BreatheWorks, a Medical Group or its Providers, the Labs or the Pharmacies. If you do not keep such information current, or fail to submit truthful, accurate and complete information, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect as much, we have the right to suspend or terminate your account and your use of the Service. You also agree to immediately notify BreatheWorks of any unauthorized use of your username, password or any other breach of security that you become aware of involving or relating to the Service by emailing BreatheWorks at info@breatheworks.com. In addition, you agree to keep confidential your username and password and to exit from your User account at the end of each session. BreatheWorks explicitly disclaims liability for any and all losses and damages arising from your failure to comply with this section. You may not use anyone else’s account at any time.
When establishing an account, you will be required to provide a username and password that will be used as your login for your account. To help protect the privacy of data you transmit through the Service, where personally identifiable information is requested, we also use technology designed to encrypt the information that you input before it is sent to us using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology or similar encryption technology. In addition, we take steps to protect the User data we collect against unauthorized access. However, you should keep in mind that the Service and our services are run on software, hardware, and networks, any component of which may, from time to time, require maintenance or experience problems or breaches of security beyond our control. In addition, persons with access to your computer, phone, or other mobile or other devices may be able to access the Service and information about you, including medical information, contained in the Service. It is your responsibility to affirmatively logout from your account when you are not actively using it. It is also your responsibility to secure and prevent unauthorized physical access to your computer, phone and other devices, and to protect the confidentiality of your username and password.
You must exercise caution, good sense, and sound judgment in using the Service. You are prohibited from violating, or attempting to violate, the security of the Service. Any such violations may result in criminal and/or civil penalties against you. BreatheWorks may investigate any alleged or suspected violations and if a criminal violation is suspected, BreatheWorks may cooperate with law enforcement agencies in their investigations.
Use and Ownership of the Service
The Service and the information and Content available through the Service are protected by copyright laws throughout the world. Subject to this Agreement, BreatheWorks grants you a limited, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal use. Unless otherwise specified by BreatheWorks in a separate license, your right to use any of the Service or the Content is subject to this Agreement and all rights in the Service and Content are reserved by BreatheWorks.

License to Information Submitted via the Service
Subject to any limitations on Protected Information described below, any information you transmit to BreatheWorks via the Service, whether by direct entry, submission, email or otherwise, including data, questions, comments, forum communications, or suggestions (collectively, “Submissions”), will, to the extent permitted under applicable law, be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary. Subject to any applicable account settings that you select, you grant BreatheWorks a fully paid, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive and fully sublicensable right (including any moral rights) and license to use, license, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publicly perform, and publicly display, Submissions (in whole or in part) for the purposes of operating and providing the Service to you and to our other users. You warrant that the holder of any worldwide intellectual property right, including moral rights, in Submissions has completely and effectively waived all such rights and validly and irrevocably granted to you the right to grant the license stated above. You agree that you, not BreatheWorks, are responsible for all of the Submissions that you provide to the Service. In addition to the foregoing, BreatheWorks shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to edit, duplicate, or alter the Submission in any manner for any purpose that BreatheWorks deems necessary or desirable, and you irrevocably waive any and all so-called moral rights you may have in the Submission. You further agree that you shall have no right of approval and no claim to compensation in connection with the Submission.
If a Submission you make contains Protected Information, BreatheWorks’ rights under this section with respect to the use or disclosure of such Protected Information will be limited as and to the extent required under applicable law.

Third-Party Goods and Services
Parties other than BreatheWorks, including Labs, Pharmacies, Medical Groups and Providers, provide services or sell products through the Service (collectively, “Third Parties”), and BreatheWorks may also make available to you for purchase certain services, devices, items or products manufactured, distributed or sold by Third Parties (“Third-Party Goods and Services”). Your use of any Third-Party Goods and Services and any interactions with Third Parties, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such use or interactions, are solely between you and such Third Parties. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline transaction involving Third Parties or any Third-Party Goods and Services.

In the event of any dispute between you and any Third Party, any other User or any other entity or individual, you understand and agree that BreatheWorks is under no obligation to become involved in such dispute, and you hereby release and indemnify BreatheWorks and their respective corporate parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates, and all of their respective contractors, directors, officers, employees, representatives, proprietors, partners, shareholders, servants, principals, agents, predecessors, successors, assigns, accountants, and attorneys (collectively, “BreatheWorks Parties”) from any and all claims, demands and/or damages (actual or consequential) of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes or the Service or the features and services therein. IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH STATES: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”
Certain of BreatheWorks’ shareholders, directors, officers, employees, contractors or agents (collectively, “BreatheWorks Owners and Personnel”) may have a financial interest in one or more Third Parties and may profit from your use of the Third Parties and/or the sale of Third-Party Goods and Services to you.
Terms of Sale
All products offered for sale by BreatheWorks are subject to availability and we reserve the right to impose quantity limits on any order or reject all or any part of an order without prior notice. In the event of an error, we reserve the right to correct the error and revise your order accordingly (which includes charging the correct price) or to cancel the order and refund any amount charged. Prices for products are subject to change at any time. You are responsible for any applicable sales, use, duty, customs or other governmental taxes, levies or fees (“Taxes”) due with respect to your purchase of products or services through our Service. We will collect applicable Taxes if we determine we have a duty to collect Taxes. We will present an estimate of Taxes we collect at checkout, except where we have clearly stated in writing that a price includes Taxes. The actual Taxes charged may be adjusted from the amount shown at checkout. Several factors may cause this, such as variances between processor programs and changes in tax rates. We are not required to, and do not, collect Taxes in all states. You may have a duty to directly report and pay Taxes if we do not collect such Taxes.
Only valid payment methods acceptable to us may be used to complete a purchase via the Service. You represent and warrant that you are authorized to use your designated payment method. You authorize us to charge your designated payment method for the total amount of your order (including any applicable taxes and shipping and handling charges). If your designated payment method is declined, we will attempt to process your charge until the transaction is approved. We and our third-party payment service providers may request, and may receive, updated payment card information from your payment card issuer, such as updated card numbers and expiration date information when your credit card has expired. If such updated information is provided to us and our third-party payment service providers, you agree we may update your account information accordingly, and will use such updated information to process payments for your future purchases and applicable subscription charges (including any applicable taxes, shipping and handling charges). Your payment card issuer may give you the right to opt out of providing vendors and third-party payment service providers with your updated card information. If you wish to opt out of your payment card’s updating service, you should contact your card issuer. We are not responsible for any fees or charges that your bank or payment card issuer may apply. If your bank or card issuer reverses a charge to your payment card, we may bill your account directly and seek payment by another method including a mailed statement.
If any of the products in your order are unavailable, we will only charge the prices, Taxes and other applicable charges associated with the products that are included in the shipment. In connection with any purchase you make through the Service, you may be asked to supply certain information relevant to the transaction, including, without limitation, your payment card number and expiration date, your billing address, your shipping address, your phone number and/or your email address. By submitting such information, you grant BreatheWorks without charge the irrevocable, unencumbered, universe-wide and perpetual right to provide such information (and any updated information we receive) to third parties (e.g., payment processing companies, buyers on the Service, sellers on the Service) for the purpose of facilitating the transaction.
All credit card, debit card and other monetary transactions on or through the Service occur through an online payment processing application(s) accessible through the Service. This online payment processing application(s) is provided by BreatheWorks’ third-party online payment processing vendor, Bluefin (collectively, “Payment Vendors”). Additional information about BreatheWorks Payment Vendors, their respective privacy policies and their information security measures (collectively, the “Payment Vendor Policies”) should be available on the Therapy Brands website located at https://www.therapybrands.com/ or by contacting Therapy Brands directly. Reference is made to the Payment Vendor Policies for informational purposes only and are in no way incorporated into or made a part of this Agreement. BreatheWorks’ relationship with Payment Vendors, if any, is merely contractual in nature, as Payment Vendors are nothing more than third-party vendors to BreatheWorks and are in no way subject to BreatheWorks’ direction or control; thus, their relationship is not, and should not be construed as, one of fiduciaries, franchisors-franchisees, agents-principals, employers-employees, partners, joint venturers or the like.
You agree to pay any shipping and handling charges, if any, shown at the time you make a purchase. We reserve the right to increase, decrease, add or eliminate shipping and handling charges from time to time, but we will provide notice of the changes applicable to you before you make your purchase. Any delivery dates or times shown as part of the checkout process are estimates only and are not guaranteed. Unless we state otherwise in writing via the Service, risk of loss or damage to a product passes to you upon delivery of the product to our designated carrier.
We reserve the right to remedy User issues and concerns on a case-by-case basis. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to resolve customer issues and concerns based on the facts and circumstances of each User.
Termination
BreatheWorks may terminate your use of the Service or any of our features or services at any time and for any reason without notice, including, for example, for conduct violating this Agreement, if any or all of the agreements between BreatheWorks and the Medical Groups, Labs, or Pharmacies terminate or if we discontinue the Service. The provisions of this Agreement concerning Service security, prohibited activities, copyrights, trademarks, user submissions, disclaimers, limitation of liability, arbitration and resolution of Disputes, indemnity and jurisdictional issues shall survive any such termination or any other termination of this Agreement or your relationship with BreatheWorks. You agree that if your use of the Service is terminated pursuant to this Agreement, you will not attempt to use the Service under any name, real or assumed, and further agree that if you violate this restriction after being terminated, you will indemnify and hold all BreatheWorks Parties harmless from any and all liability that any such BreatheWorks Parties may incur with respect thereto.
Except as otherwise provided in the Privacy Policy or as required by applicable law (including any obligation to provide access to health records), we have no obligation, whether before or after the termination of your use of the Service, to return or otherwise provide to you or any third party on your behalf any Content, any information you provide to us, any information your Providers provided to us about or relating to you, or any other information that we may have that relates to you.

Binding Arbitration / Class Waiver
YOU AND WE EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT ANY LEGAL CLAIM, DISPUTE OR OTHER CONTROVERSY BETWEEN YOU AND US OR ANY OF THE BREATHEWORKS PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR OTHERWISE RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE BREATHEWORKS PARTIES, THE PLATFORM, THE CONTENT OR THE SERVICE, OR ANY OTHER GOODS, SERVICES OR ADVERTISING BY BREATHEWORKS, INCLUDING CONTROVERSIES RELATING TO THE APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY OR VALIDITY OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT (COLLECTIVELY, “DISPUTES”), SHALL BE RESOLVED IN CONFIDENTIAL BINDING ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BEFORE ONE COMMERCIAL ARBITRATOR FROM THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”), RATHER THAN IN A COURT, AS DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE AAA’S CONSUMER ARBITRATION RULES AND, IF THE ARBITRATOR DEEMS THEM APPLICABLE, THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (COLLECTIVELY, “RULES AND PROCEDURES”). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY FORFEITING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO OTHERWISE PROCEED IN A LAWSUIT IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN.
In the event a Dispute arises between us, we are committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution. You and we agree that good faith informal efforts to resolve Disputes can result in a prompt, low‐cost and mutually beneficial outcome. You and we therefore agree that before either party commences arbitration against the other, we will personally meet and confer telephonically or via videoconference, in a good faith effort to resolve informally any Dispute covered by this Arbitration Agreement (“Informal Dispute Resolution Conference”). If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference, but you will also participate in the conference.
The arbitration shall be conducted in the state of Oregon, reflecting the governing law and jurisdiction provided at the beginning of this Agreement. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on all parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. These Terms and Conditions evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce; and notwithstanding any other provision herein with respect to the applicable substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement and any arbitration proceedings.

The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to any conflicts of law provisions.

We both agree that if we cannot enforce a part of this Agreement as written, then that part will be replaced with terms that most closely match the intent of the unenforceable part to the extent permitted by law. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the invalidity of part of this Agreement will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. The section headings are for convenience and do not have any force or effect.
