Terms of Service
Updated: 8/20/2025
1. Acceptance of Terms
These terms of use (these “Terms”) set forth the terms and conditions under which xHeal Corp. ("xHeal," "we," "us," or "our") provides you (“you” or “your”) with access to and use of our proprietary “xHeal” personal health record application (“xHeal” and, together with any related PHR services we may offer from time to time, the “Services”).
These Terms of Service ("Terms" or "Agreement") outline the rules and regulations for the use of our website at https://www.xheal.ai (the "Website"), our software application (the "App"), and any and all related networks, websites, downloadable software, mobile applications, tablet applications, and other services, information, materials, devices, and products we provide to you (collectively, our "Service"). Our Service also covers the processed data, content, or surveys we make available on or through the Apps, Communications, or Website.
Please read these Terms carefully before accessing or using any part of the Services. By accessing or using the Services, you agree that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by these Terms, as well as by the xHeal Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) which is hereby incorporated into these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not use our Services.
Our Services are available only to, and may only be used by, individuals who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law (“applicable law” as used herein shall mean any and all federal, state, local and/or international laws, statutes, regulations and ordinances that may apply to a user of the Services). It is solely each user’s obligation to determine what law may be applicable to them. Individuals between the ages of 13 and 18 can use the Services only in conjunction with and under the supervision of an Authorized Representative (as defined below). In such a case, the Authorized Representative is the user and is responsible for any and all activities of the minor. Individuals under age 13 may not use the Services.
FURTHER, THESE TERMS CONTAIN AN AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, WHICH REQUIRES THAT YOU AND xHeal. ARBITRATE CERTAIN CLAIMS BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF GOING TO COURT AND LIMITS CLASS ACTION CLAIMS UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE AS DESCRIBED IN THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE (SEE SECTION 24 “DISPUTE RESOLUTION; AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE”).

Users acknowledge that relying on xHeal's information without verification from a qualified healthcare provider could lead to harmful outcomes, for which xHeal bears no liability.
4. Not Medical Care
xHeal does not provide medical advice and is not a doctor. xHeal does not practice medicine and does not provide patient care. The Services, Content, and App provided by xHeal are not intended to constitute medical advice, instruction, diagnosis, treatment, or care. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider regarding any data, information, or results provided by xHeal.
5. Not for Emergency Medical Situations or Mental Health Crises
xHeal IS NOT FOR EMERGENCIES. xHeal CANNOT and MUST NOT be used for medical emergencies of any kind. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call your local emergency services (such as 911 in the United States) or go to your nearest emergency room immediately.

If xHeal's AI system detects content related to any of the above prohibited uses, it may automatically terminate the conversation and direct users to appropriate emergency resources. For registered users, xHeal reserves the right to immediately suspend or terminate user accounts without prior notice if such prohibited content is detected. This action is taken to protect both the user and xHeal, as our service is not designed to address these serious situations and inappropriate use could result in harm.

Waiver. If applicable, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

If you are dissatisfied with any portion of the Services or with these Terms, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue use of the Services.
18. Not an Emergency Service
Neither xHeal nor any of our other Services do provide any emergency or urgent medical services. PLEASE CALL 911 OR YOUR HEALTH CARE PROVIDER IF YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY OR IF YOU NEED URGENT CARE.
19. Not Medical Advice
You acknowledge and agree that neither xHeal nor the Services offer medical advice. Any content or data accessed through the Services are for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for the professional judgment of health care providers in diagnosing and treating patients. xHeal is not responsible for the accuracy, timeliness, or completeness of your Personal Information, or for any reliance by you or any medical professional on your Personal Information within the PHR. xHeal is not responsible for any Provider's reliance or non-reliance on your Content or the accuracy thereof.
20. Jurisdictional Issues; Export Controls.

You agree not to upload any Content (including information on encryption) whose export is specifically controlled by such laws.

We will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms. If we make changes that are material, we may also attempt to notify you. However, it is your sole responsibility to review the Terms from time to time to view any such changes. The updated Terms will be effective as of the time of posting, or such later date as may be specified in the updated Terms. Your continued access to or use of the Services after the modifications have become effective will be deemed your acceptance of the modified Terms.

Notification will typically be provided via email and will include information about the nature of the breach, the data affected, steps we are taking to address the breach, and recommendations for protecting yourself.

23. California Residents

Code § 1789.3, residents of California have the right to request from a business, with whom the California resident has an established business relationship, certain information with respect to the types of personal information the business shares with third parties for direct marketing purposes by such third party and the identities of the third parties with whom the business has shared such information during the immediately preceding calendar year. To request a copy of the information disclosure provided by us pursuant to Section 1798.83 of the California Civil Code, please contact us at: legal@xheal.ai.
24. Dispute Resolution; Agreement to Arbitrate
Arbitration. You agree that, except as set forth in this Section 24, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or in connection with our Services (each, for the purposes of this Section 24, a “Claim”) will be determined by binding arbitration or small claims court, instead of in courts of general jurisdiction.
Small Claims. Subject to the satisfaction of all applicable requirements of small claims court, you or xHeal may seek to have a Claim resolved in small claims court. You or xHeal bring a Claim in a small claims court in the jurisdiction in which you reside or in the small claims court in closest proximity to your residence. You may also bring a Claim in small claims court in the State of Florida, USA.
U.S. Federal Arbitration Act. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration may permit more limited discovery than a court proceeding, and is subject to very limited review by courts. However, the same damages and relief that a court can award can be awarded by arbitrators. You agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 24. You also agree that you and xHeal each hereby expressly waive the right to participate in a class action.
Notice of Claim. In the event that you elect to seek to have a Claim arbitrated, you are required to first send xHeal’s registered agent a written notice of your Claim (“Notice of Claim”). Your Notice of Claim should be sent in care of xHeal Legal Department, at legal@xheal.ai. Your Notice of Claim should include your mailing address and your email address that we may use to contact you. If xHeal elects to seek to have a Claim arbitrated, we will send a written Notice of Claim to the address that we have on file for you by certified mail. Any Notice of Claim must include enough information for us to identify you and attempt to resolve your Claim, including both a description of the nature and basis of your Claim, any supporting documentation, and the specific amount of damages or other relief you are seeking.
Arbitration Rules. The arbitration of all disputes will be administered by the AAA under its rules in effect at the time the arbitration is commenced, available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879, except to the extent any of those rules conflict with our agreement in these Terms, in which case these Terms will govern to the extent of the conflict. Except as you and xHeal otherwise agree, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of either your residence or of the mailing address you provided in your Notice of Claim.
Arbitrator Selection. The arbitrator will be either: (i) a retired judge; or (ii) an attorney specifically licensed to practice law in the State of Florida or the state of your residence and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s National Roster of arbitrators, as follows: (A) the AAA will send the parties a list of five (5) candidates meeting the foregoing criteria; (B) if the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator from the list, each party shall return its list to the AAA within ten (10) days, striking up to two (2) candidates, and ranking the remaining candidates in order of preference; (C) the AAA shall appoint as arbitrator the candidate with the highest aggregate ranking; and (D) if for any reason the appointment cannot be made according to this procedure, the AAA may exercise its discretion in appointing the arbitrator. All arbitrators appointed pursuant to this process are subject to the disclosure and disqualification procedures set forth in the AAA rules and any applicable laws. The arbitrator is bound by these Terms. Except as otherwise provided below, all issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision.
Administrative Conference. The parties agree that an administrative conference with the AAA shall be conducted in each arbitration proceeding, and you and a representative of xHeal shall appear at the administrative conference via telephone. If you fail to appear at the administrative conference, regardless of whether your counsel attends, the AAA will administratively close the arbitration proceeding without prejudice, unless you show good cause as to why you were not able to attend the conference.
Decision of Arbitrator. The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The award shall be binding only among the parties and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party. xHeal will not seek to recover its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration from you unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your demand for arbitration (a “Demand for Arbitration”) was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). Judgment on any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This agreement to arbitrate shall not preclude any party to the arbitration from at any time seeking injunctions or other forms of equitable relief in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction including whether a Demand for Arbitration is filed in violation of these Terms.
Injunctive Relief. Unless you or xHeal seek to have a Claim resolved in small claims court, the arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief and attorneys’ fees. If you seek injunctive or declaratory relief, you agree that the arbitrator may award injunctive or declaratory relief in favor of you alone, and only to the extent necessary to resolve your individual Claim.
Payment of Fees. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. If you initiate an arbitration, you are required to pay AAA’s initial filing fee, but xHeal will reimburse you for this filing fee at the conclusion of the arbitration to the extent it exceeds the fee for filing a complaint in a federal or state court in your county of residence or in the State of Florida. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your Claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules and xHeal will not reimburse your initial filing fee. The parties agree that the AAA has discretion to modify the amount or timing of any administrative or arbitration fees due under the AAA Rules where it deems appropriate, provided that such modification does not increase the AAA fees to you or xHeal and you and xHeal waive any objection to such fee modification.

Effect of Changes on Arbitration. Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, you and xHeal agree that if xHeal make any change to the arbitration procedures (other than a change to any notice address provided herein) in the future, that change shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against xHeal prior to the effective date of the change. Moreover, if xHeal seek to terminate the arbitration procedures set forth in this Section 24.l from these Terms, such termination shall not be effective until thirty (30) days after the version of these Terms not containing the Arbitration Procedures is posted to the Services and shall not be effective as to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against xHeal prior to the effective date of removal.
Waiver of Class Actions. BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND xHeal ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE TO WAIVE CERTAIN RIGHTS TO LITIGATE DISPUTES IN COURT, TO RECEIVE A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR AS A CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLAIM ON A CLASS OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. YOU AND xHeal BOTH AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT A CONSOLIDATED, CLASS-WIDE OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS AND THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO PROCEED WITH AN ARBITRATION ON A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD INJUNCTIVE RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM. IF FOR ANY REASON THE ARBITRATION CLAUSE SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT IS DEEMED INAPPLICABLE OR INVALID, OR TO THE EXTENT THE ARBITRATION CLAUSE ALLOWS FOR LITIGATION OF DISPUTES IN COURT, YOU AND xHeal BOTH WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO PURSUE OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR AS A CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLAIM ON A CLASS OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY.
24. General Information
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and xHeal and will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida without regard to its conflict of law provisions. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such provision will be severed and the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. You agree that a breach of these Terms may cause irreparable injury to xHeal for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and xHeal shall be entitled to seek equitable relief in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law without a bond, other security or proof of damages. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Except where the context expressly requires otherwise: (a) the use of the singular will be deemed to include the plural (and vice versa); (b) the words “include”, “includes”, “including” or “e.g.” will be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”; (c) the word “will” will be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”; and (d) the term “or” will be interpreted in the inclusive sense commonly associated with the term “and/or”. If xHeal or its businesses are acquired or transferred to another entity (in whole or part and including in connection with bankruptcy or similar proceedings), xHeal has the right to share your Content, Health Records and other personal information with that entity. Where possible, xHeal will notify you in advance of such a transaction and you will be offered an opportunity to opt-out of having your information transferred. These Terms will continue to apply to the Services until you receive notification of changes to the Terms or Services.
