All of the Providers are independent of Telegenixx and use the Services as a way to communicate with you. Any information or advice received from a Provider comes from them alone, and not from Telegenixx. Your interactions with the Providers via the Service are not intended to take the place of your relationship with your regular health care practitioners.

This allows Providers to schedule appointments and connect with patients or clients for Telehealth consultations (“Telehealth Services”). Prior to using the Telehealth Services with patients or clients, the Provider must give written notice to any person who attends a session or services through Telehealth (such as patients and clients) and it is Provider’s obligation to obtain a written consent from such attendees and recipients that contains the terms required by applicable law before participating in Telehealth consultation using the Telehealth Services. In addition, we require every Provider to be duly licensed in their state where they practice before they can use the Services or Telehealth Services.

Telehealth Services will be scheduled according to the availability of the Provider as indicated on the Services. You are responsible for making sure you attend your scheduled appointment on time or notify us and the Provider in advance if the appointment needs to be cancelled or rescheduled. You may be charged for appointments that you miss or fail to reschedule in a timely manner.

16. ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER—IMPORTANT—PLEASE REVIEW AS THIS AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH TELEGENIXX AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US, UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION BY FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS SET FORTH BELOW. NO CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS OR ARBITRATIONS ARE ALLOWED UNDER THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. IN ADDITION, ARBITRATION PRECLUDES YOU FROM SUING IN COURT OR HAVING A JURY TRIAL.
16.1 UNLESS YOU OPT-OUT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 16.6, AND EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 16.2, YOU AND TELEGENIXX AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR OUR SERVICES IS PERSONAL TO YOU AND TELEGENIXX AND THAT ANY DISPUTE WILL BE RESOLVED SOLELY THROUGH INDIVIDUAL ACTION, AND WILL NOT BE BROUGHT AS A CLASS ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
16.2 Except for small claims disputes in which you or Telegenixx seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or Telegenixx seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and Telegenixx waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement or our Services resolved in court. Instead, for any dispute or claim that you have against Telegenixx or relating in any way to the Services, you agree to first contact Telegenixx and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to Telegenixx by email at support@telegenixx.com or by certified mail addressed to Telegenixx Legal Department, legal@telegenixx.com. The Notice must (a) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and Telegenixx cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration. Arbitration proceedings will be held in Travis County, Texas or may be conducted telephonically or via video conference for disputes alleging damages less than $500, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”). The most recent version of the JAMS Rules are available on the JAMS website and are hereby incorporated by reference. Please note that Providers are required to enter separate agreements with Telegenixx, which have separate choice of law and dispute resolution provisions; such provisions shall prevail over these provisions to the extent the dispute relates to those agreements.
16.3 You and Telegenixx agree that this Agreement affects interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 16 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Arbitration will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Rules. As limited by the FAA, this Agreement and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability.

The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with this Section 16.
16.7 If any portion of this Section 16 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from this Agreement; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section 16 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section 16; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Section 16 is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section 16 will be enforceable.
