The information presented on or through the Services is made available solely for general information purposes.

We disclaim all liability or responsibility arising from your reliance on such materials.

All statements or opinions expressed in such content are solely the opinions and the responsibility of the third party providing such materials. Such materials do not necessarily reflect our opinion.

Limitation of Liability; Indemnification
Limitation of Liability
THE RELATED PARTIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY ERRORS IN THE SERVICES OR ANY SERVICES CONTENT, OR FOR ANY ACTION TAKEN IN RELIANCE THEREON. FURTHERMORE, THE RELATED PARTIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INTERCEPTION OF ONLINE COMMUNICATIONS, SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE PROBLEMS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, VIRUSES, LOSS OF DATA, OR COMPATIBILITY CONFLICTS), OR OTHER CONSEQUENCE BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL. ANY LIABILITY OF THE RELATED PARTIES TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INJURIES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION, OF ANY KIND OR NATURE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, OR OTHERWISE, EITHER JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, SHALL BE STRICTLY LIMITED TO THE AGGREGATE DOLLAR AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO US IN YOUR MOST RECENT USE OF THE SERVICES IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE CLAIMED INJURY, LOSS, OR DAMAGE.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF CERTAIN LIABILITIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Related Parties from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to your violation of these Terms or your use of the Services, including, without limitation, your User Contributions and any use of the Services Content, in each case other than as expressly authorized in these Terms.
Miscellaneous
Privacy
All information we collect through the Services is subject to our Privacy Policy. By using the Services, you consent to all actions taken by us with respect to your information in compliance with our Privacy Policy.
Arbitration
You and TXMD agree that any disputes between you and us will be resolved through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. All controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and us relating to these Terms or the Service, (each a “Claim”) shall be submitted for binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and TXMD agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and all elements of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies. You and TXMD hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim.
Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, we will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator’s fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate.
This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or TXMD from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and TXMD also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, you and TXMD retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these Terms, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms.
Neither you nor TXMD may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and/or our individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.
This “Arbitration” section of these Terms will survive the termination of your relationship with us.
Our affiliates and third-party providers are third-party beneficiaries to these Terms (and may enforce any of the provisions and protections hereof, including, without limitation, the foregoing arbitration provision).
THIS “ARBITRATION” SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR TXMD WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
By accessing or using the Services, you agree that all matters relating to your access to and use of the Services (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. You and TXMD specifically disclaim the U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Any legal action or proceeding arising out of or related to your access to or use of the Service or these Terms, except where such legal action or proceeding is submitted to arbitration as described in the “Arbitration” section above, shall be instituted exclusively in the applicable state or federal courts of the State of Florida, and you agree and hereby submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue thereof.
Time to File Claims
ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. AFTER SUCH PERIOD, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
Waiver
No waiver by us of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of TXMD to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
Severability
If any of the terms or conditions of these Terms are determined to be void, unlawful, or unenforceable, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and conditions shall not thereby be affected or impaired.
Entire Agreement
These Terms constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Services and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, warranties, and covenants, both written and oral, with respect to the Services.
