  1. ASSURED PEDIATRICS SERVICE.

The Service provides individuals accessing it with general educational information on health care and health and wellness topics (“Information”) and the means to facilitate video-call meetings between users with questions (“Customers”) and users who answer questions (“Experts”) via the Service (“Video-Call”) (collectively, the Information and Video-Call shall be referred to herein as “Content”). Experts are not employees or agents of Assured Pediatrics but are independent service providers using the Service to sell their Expert knowledge to Customers and, as such, together with Customers, are defined as Users of the Service. Any opinions, advice, or information expressed or made available by Experts are those of such Expert alone. They do not reflect the opinions of Assured Pediatrics.

Assured Pediatrics is not actively involved in the conversations between Customers and Experts. Assured Pediatrics does not represent or endorse the accuracy or reliability of any opinion, statement or other information on the Service or provided by an Expert. You understand and acknowledge that Assured Pediatrics shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of Experts, or the ability of Experts to answer questions.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Assured Pediatrics reserves the right, but is not obligated, to refuse to post or to remove any content and/or remove any User’s access to the Service.

EMERGENCY QUESTIONS AND CRISIS SITUATIONS (particularly regarding medical or mental health issues) should not be directed to the Service and should, instead be directed immediately by telephone or in-person to qualified professionals (i.e. in the U.S., call 911). The Service is not the appropriate venue to deal with such situations.

  1. USE OF THE TERM “EXPERT”.

Assured Pediatrics uses the term Expert to describe Users who answer questions in the Service and use of the term “expert” by Assured Pediatrics does not represent or guarantee any particular level of credentialing or expertise of the Experts. The inclusion of Experts on the Service or in any professional directory located on the Service does not imply recommendation or endorsement of such Expert nor is such information intended as a tool for verifying the credentials, qualifications, or abilities of any Expert contained therein. Such information is provided on an “as-is” basis and Assured Pediatrics disclaims all warranties, either express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for particular purpose. Assured Pediatrics shall in no event be liable to you or to anyone for any decision made or action taken by any party (including, without limitation, any Service user) in reliance on information about Experts on the Service.

The use of the Service by any entity or individual to verify the credentials of Experts is prohibited.

  1. RELIANCE ON INFORMATION PROVIDED.

We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by you or any other User of the Service, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.

The laws, regulations, other governing authorities, standards, practices and procedures that apply to your particular question may differ depending on your location and information typically discovered through in-person visits. Experts in some categories may be licensed, certified, educated, employed by or have experience in only particular jurisdictions.
