Heart Arc — Terms of Use

Effective date: [DATE]. Operated by [LEGAL ENTITY / PRACTICE NAME] ("we", "us").

1. Acceptance

By entering your invitation code and using Heart Arc, you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Notice. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

2. What Heart Arc is — and isn't

Heart Arc is a private, invite-only cardiovascular-prevention pilot. A board-certified cardiologist reviews the information you provide and prepares an educational, prevention-focused report.

• Not emergency care. If you have new or severe chest pain, trouble breathing, fainting, or possible stroke symptoms, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
• Not a replacement for your own physician. Heart Arc does not create a comprehensive treatment relationship and is not a substitute for in-person care, diagnosis, or ongoing management. Decisions about testing and treatment should be made with your own physician.
• Educational/preventive purpose. The report is general information to support prevention discussions; it is not a guarantee of any outcome.

3. Eligibility

You must be 18 or older, have received a valid invitation code, and provide accurate information. The service is offered to residents of [applicable U.S. states].

4. Your responsibilities

• Provide accurate, complete information and upload only your own records.
• Upload documents as PDF only (photos/images are not supported during the pilot), and do not upload files containing scripts, malware, or unrelated sensitive data (e.g., SSNs, payment information).
• Keep your invitation code private; it is single-use.
• Seek emergency care when appropriate, independent of this service.

5. Reviewer clarification & turnaround

A cardiologist reviews your submission and may contact you to clarify information before preparing your report. Estimated turnaround (e.g., 5–7 business days) is a target, not a guarantee.

6. Consent

You will be asked to consent to a cardiologist reviewing your information, to receiving service-related communications, and to these Terms and the Privacy Notice, before you can submit. Your consent (with a version and timestamp) is recorded.

7. Privacy

Your information is handled per the Privacy Notice, including retention/deletion. We do not sell your personal information.

8. Intellectual property

The service, its content, and reports are owned by [LEGAL ENTITY] and provided for your personal, non-commercial use. Do not copy, resell, or redistribute the service.

9. Disclaimers [for counsel]

The service and any report are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

10. Limitation of liability [for counsel]

To the maximum extent permitted by law, [LEGAL ENTITY] and the reviewing physician will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any decision made in reliance on the report. [Aggregate liability cap — counsel.] Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

11. Indemnification [for counsel]

[Standard participant indemnification clause — counsel to draft.]

12. Suspension & changes

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the pilot at any time, and may update these Terms; continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.

13. Governing law & disputes [for counsel]

These Terms are governed by the laws of [STATE]. [Dispute-resolution / venue / arbitration terms — counsel.]
