Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the Riverd platform at www.riverd.app (the "Service"), operated by Riverd ("we," "us," or "our"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

Riverd is a technology platform for well-being service providers ("Providers") and their clients ("Clients"). The Service includes practice management tools, booking functionality, clinical documentation features, and a community network for wellness professionals.

Riverd is a technology platform, not a healthcare provider. We do not practice medicine, endorse or guarantee the quality of any Provider's services, or guarantee treatment outcomes. Providers are independent professionals, not employees or agents of Riverd. Any decision to engage a Provider's services is made solely between the Client and the Provider.

3. Eligibility

• You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Service.
• The Service is intended for users located in the United States.
• Providers must hold valid professional credentials for the services they offer.
• You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration.

4. User Accounts

• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
• You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account.
• You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.
• We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

5. Provider Responsibilities

Providers using the Service agree to:

• Maintain valid and current professional licenses and certifications.
• Provide services in accordance with applicable laws and professional standards.
• Maintain accurate availability and service information on their practice page.
• Handle client data in compliance with applicable privacy and health information laws.

6. Client Responsibilities

Clients using the Service agree to:

• Provide accurate information when booking services.
• Honor booking commitments and cancellation policies set by Providers.
• Treat providers with respect and professionalism.
• Not misuse the platform or engage in fraudulent activity.

7. Bookings and Payments

• Bookings are agreements between Providers and Clients. Riverd facilitates scheduling but is not a party to these agreements.
• Cancellation policies are set by individual Providers. Where a Provider has not set a cancellation policy, bookings may be cancelled up to 24 hours before the scheduled time.
• Riverd does not process, collect, or manage payments between Providers and Clients. All financial transactions occur directly between the parties outside the platform.

8. Healthcare Disclaimer

Riverd is not a HIPAA-covered entity. The platform provides tools for practice management and clinical documentation, but these tools do not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

• Providers are solely responsible for their own regulatory compliance, including HIPAA where applicable to their practice.
• Providers are solely responsible for the accuracy and appropriateness of their clinical records.
• The platform's clinical tools (patient books, session notes, body maps) are provided as documentation aids only.

9. Acceptable Use and Content

You may not:

• Use the Service for any illegal purpose.
• Impersonate any person or entity.
• Interfere with or disrupt the Service or its infrastructure.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service.
• Scrape, harvest, or collect information from the Service without authorization.
• Upload malicious code or content.
• Post misleading health claims, false credentials, or unlicensed practice claims.

We reserve the right to review, edit, or remove any content that violates these Terms or that we reasonably determine to be harmful, misleading, or non-compliant.

10. Intellectual Property

• The Service, including its design, features, and content, is owned by Riverd and protected by intellectual property laws.
• Providers retain ownership of their clinical data, session notes, and original content.
• By using the Service, you grant Riverd a limited, non-exclusive license to display your public profile and practice page information, and to use your publicly available content (such as your practice page, bio, and service descriptions) for marketing, social media, and platform promotion purposes. You may opt out of marketing use by contacting us.
• You grant Riverd the right to cache, index, and make your public practice page discoverable through search engines and the Riverd directory.

11. Beta Features

Certain features of the Service may be designated as "beta," "preview," or "experimental." Such features are provided as-is with no service level agreement (SLA) or guarantee of availability. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue beta features at any time without notice.

12. Data Export and Portability

You may request an export of your data at any time through the Service or by contacting us. Data exports are provided in JSON format. Upon termination of your account, you have 30 days to request a data export before your data is permanently deleted.

13. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

16. Force Majeure

Riverd shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, acts of government, internet or infrastructure failures, cyber attacks, pandemics, or other force majeure events.

17. Dispute Resolution

In the event of a dispute arising from these Terms or the Service:

1. Informal Resolution: You agree to first attempt to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us. We will make good-faith efforts to resolve the matter within 30 days.
2. Mediation: If informal resolution fails, either party may initiate mediation through a mutually agreed mediator.
3. Binding Arbitration: If mediation is unsuccessful, disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules, conducted in the State of Delaware. Small claims court actions are exempt from this arbitration requirement.

18. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions.

19. Modifications

We may modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated via the Service or email at least 30 days before taking effect. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.

20. Termination
