HealthyVerify Terms of Sale
“Get Certified & Stay Certified”
This is a binding legal contract. Before placing your order on the Website and thereby agreeing to these Terms, the Company recommends you consult with legal counsel of your choice. By placing your order on the Website, you acknowledge that you have either (i) consulted with legal counsel and determined you would like to agree to these Terms, or (ii) you have had an opportunity to consult with legal counsel and have voluntarily chosen not to do so.
By placing an order on HealthyVerify.com (the “Website”), you (the “Customer” or “you”) agree to the terms and conditions below (the “Terms” or the “Agreement”). The Terms govern orders placed on the Website and constitute an agreement between you, as the purchaser of the services on the Website, and Healthy Verify Certification, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (the "Company") as the provider of the Procedures, Training, and the Certification (each as hereinafter defined).
The Company may cancel your Website order at any time and for any reason. Your receipt of an order confirmation does not constitute the Company’s acceptance of the order and the Company is under no obligation to accept any order you submit. If the Company does not accept your order, the Company will refund any amounts you paid to the Company.
The HealthyVerify Certification (the “Certification”) is available only to those who successfully implement the Healthy Verify Certification Procedures (the “Procedures”) provided by the Company and that permit ongoing verification of compliance with the Procedures by the Company or its agents or representatives. The Company can also train your employees to follow and implement the Procedures (the “Training”).
I. Price
In exchange for the Procedures, Certification and Training (as applicable), you agree to pay the contract price (the “Contract Price”) set forth on the Website when placing your order, which consists of an initial payment, due at the time of order (“Initial Payment”) and the monthly or other ongoing payments set forth on the Website at the time of order (“Installment Payments”). By making the Initial Payment to the Company through the Website, Customer accepts the terms of this Agreement and agrees to comply with and perform the obligations and terms hereof. If the Contract Price includes Installment Payments, Customer shall pay any such amounts to Company on or before the first of each month. All amounts paid (including pre-paid) to Company shall be deemed earned on receipt and are non-refundable, including, without limitation, in the event of License revocation or other termination of this Agreement.
II. Overview of Services
After you pay the Initial Payment and Company’s acceptance of your order, the Company will develop Procedures applicable to your business. Upon receipt of the Procedures, Customer shall implement the Procedures at each business location or site at which it desires Certification or intends to use the License (the “Premises”)
If the Company is providing Training and Certification, Customer may provide the Company notice once it has implemented the Procedures and the Company, its agents, or representatives will perform an inspection of the Premises to confirm compliance with the Procedures. The Company’s inspection shall be performed in the Company’s sole discretion (an “Inspection”). After the Inspection, the Company will notify you that either (i) you have passed the Inspection ( “Certification Notice”) and the date of the Certification Notice (“Certification Date”), or (ii) you have not passed the Inspection and a description of the deficiencies in the implementation of the Procedures. If you do not pass the Inspection, the Company will, upon notice from you and payment of the Reinspection fee, as provided by the Company at the time of such written notice to Customer, perform a reinspection of the Premises (the “Reinspection”). The results for a Reinspection will be provided in the same manner as an Inspection.
III. License
The Company hereby grants Customer a non-exclusive, revocable license which is not effective unless and until, and is expressly conditioned upon, Customer’s receipt of a Certification Notice from the Company with respect to the Premises (the “License”). Customer shall maintain compliance with the Procedures at the Premises for the term of the License. The purpose of the License, if and when it becomes effective, permits Customer to use and display the HealthyVerify Certification name and logo at the Premises and in advertising materials. For the term of the License, Company may, at its election, display the Customer’s business name and logo on our website and in our marketing materials. In no event shall Customer display the HealthyVerify Certification name or logo at any Premises for which a Certification Notice was not issued.
You acknowledge and agree that use of the License and the Inspection are site-specific. If you have more than one Premises, you must obtain a successful Inspection for each such location, unless otherwise agreed upon with Company. The street address of each business location or site for which Customer wants a Certification and wants to use the License must be provided by Customer to the Company.
Customer hereby grants the Company, its agents, and representatives a nonexclusive license to access the Premises during regular business hours where the Procedures have, will be, or are intended to be implemented, for all reasonable purposes contemplated by this Agreement, including the Inspection, Reinspection, or compliance verification (the “Access License”).
IV.Term
The term of the License will be one (1) year from the date hereof (the “Initial Term”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may revoke the License if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that Customer is not operating in strict compliance with the Procedures. Customer acknowledges and agrees that any time during the Initial Term of this Agreement or any Extensions, the Company, its agents, or representatives may perform a compliance check of the Premises (either physically or virtually) at any time during regular business hours and without prior notice. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, prior to any revocation of the License and Certification, the Company will provide Customer with written notice of any such noncompliance and an opportunity to promptly cure any deficiencies and to regain compliance with the Procedures.
You are prohibited from using the HealthyVerify Certification name or logo in any manner or for any purpose other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Upon expiration or revocation of the License, Customer agrees it shall immediately cease using the HealthyVerify Certification name and logo in any way and shall remove the name and/or logo from its Premises, its website, and any other place in any medium in which the name and/or logo appear.
At the expiration of the Initial Term of the License, the License shall automatically renew and be extended by a period of time equal to the length of the Initial Term (an “Extension” and a “Subsequent Term”). The price charged for Certification shall be renewed for each Subsequent Term, and the Customer shall pay to the Company such renewed price within thirty (30) days after the first day of each Subsequent Term; provided, however, not more than thirty (30) days after the first day of each Subsequent Term, the Company may, in its sole discretion, increase the Contract Price for such Subsequent Term by providing written notice of its election to Customer. Performance by the Company of any obligations hereunder during the Initial Term or any Extension is conditioned upon receipt of payment for the then-current period, whether Initial Term or a Subsequent Term. You acknowledge and agree the Company is not obligated to issue an Extension and reserves the right to terminate the License at the conclusion of the Initial Term or any Subsequent Term, or as otherwise provided herein, even if the Customer is in compliance with the Procedures. The Customer can terminate the License at the conclusion of the Initial Term or any Subsequent Term by providing thirty (30) days advance written notice to Company of its intent to not accept an Extension.
