Any such Responses constitute “FH Content” as defined herein.

c. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RESPONSES ARE BASED ON YOUR INQUIRIES AND OTHER USER CONTENT YOU PROVIDE AI CHAT, AND THAT FUNCTION HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY SUCH USER CONTENT. ACCORDINGLY, ALL RESPONSES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITH “ALL FAULTS,” AND FUNCTION MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WITH RESPECT TO ANY USER CONTENT OR RESPONSES, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TRUTHFULNESS, TIMELINESS, OR SUITABILITY.
FUNCTION DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE SECURITY OR PRIVACY OF ANY USER CONTENT.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THERE ARE LIMITATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH GENERATIVE-AI TECHNOLOGY. AI CHAT MAY MAKE MISTAKES AND PROVIDE YOU WITH INCORRECT INFORMATION. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU PERFORM YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND USE YOUR OWN JUDGEMENT WHEN EVALUATING ANY RESPONSES PROVIDED BY AI CHAT.
AI CHAT AND RESPONSES PROVIDED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND DILIGENCE AND GUIDANCE FROM YOUR HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS. THE RESPONSES ARE DEPENDENT UPON THE INFORMATION AND CONTENT YOU PROVIDE AS QUERIES TO AI CHAT.
YOU, AND NOT FUNCTION, SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR VERIFYING THE ACCURACY OF ALL INFORMATION CONTAINED WITHIN THE RESPONSES, FOR MAKING DECISIONS, AND FOR COMPLYING WITH ALL LAWS AND APPLICABLE REGULATIONS, AND WILL RELEASE AND WAIVE ANY CLAIMS AGAINST FUNCTION, AND INDEMNIFY FUNCTION FOR ANY CLAIMS, RELATED TO YOUR USE OR RELIANCE ON AI CHAT AND ANY RESPONSES.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU WILL REVIEW EACH RESPONSE AND ANY OTHER ASPECTS OF AI CHAT TO CONFIRM ACCURACY AND TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH MATERIALS ARE SUFFICIENT AND MEET YOUR NEEDS. AI CHAT IS INTENDED AS A RESPONSE GENERATION TOOL ONLY AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE ANY WARRANTY OR GUARANTY THAT AI CHAT WILL PROVIDE ACCURATE, TAILORED, OR INFORMATIVE RESPONSES OR RESULTS. LAWS AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING USE OF GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ARE RAPIDLY EVOLVING, AND FUNCTION DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOUR USE OF AI CHAT, OR RESPONSES WILL COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS OR THAT FUTURE LAWS AND REGULATIONS WILL NOT IMPACT YOUR USE THEREOF. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT YOUR USE OF AI CHAT, AND RESPONSES COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS. YOU SHOULD EVALUATE THE FITNESS OF ANY RESPONSE AS APPROPRIATE FOR YOUR SPECIFIC USE CASE.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT FUNCTION DOES NOT ENDORSE, GUARANTEE, OR ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACCURACY, EFFICACY, VERACITY, COMPLETENESS, OR APPROPRIATENESS OF ANY INFORMATION OR RESOURCES RECEIVED, PROVIDED, OR MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH AI CHAT.

If changes to the Subscription price occur that impact your Subscription, Function will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you, such as by sending an email to the email address associated with your Account. If you do not agree with such changes, you may cancel your Subscription as set forth in Section 13(b)(ii). Function is not obligated to provide the Service to you until Function accepts your order by a confirmatory email, SMS/MMS message, or other appropriate means of communication.
(i) Automatic Renewal. If you elect to purchase a Subscription, your Subscription will continue and automatically renew at Function’s then-current price for such Subscription until terminated in accordance with this Agreement. The frequency at which your Subscription renews (i.e., monthly, annually, etc.) will be designated at the time at you sign up for the Subscription. By subscribing, you authorize Function to charge the payment method designated in your Account now, and again at the beginning of any subsequent Subscription period. Upon renewal of your Subscription, if Function does not receive payment, (i) you shall pay all amounts due on your Account upon demand and/or (ii) you agree that Function may either terminate or suspend your Subscription and continue to attempt to charge your designated payment method until payment is received (upon receipt of payment, your Account will be activated and for purposes of automatic renewal, your new Subscription commitment period will begin as of the day payment was received).
(ii) Cancelling Subscriptions Purchased via Function. If you wish to cancel your Subscription or do not wish your Account to renew automatically, you may do so prior to the date your subscription takes effect or renews by logging into and going to the “Change/Cancel Membership” page of your “Account Settings” at my.functionhealth.com and interacting as necessary with the cancellation interface, or by contacting Function at hello@functionhealth.com. If you did not purchase your Subscription directly from Function, please refer to the party or method through which you purchased your Subscription for cancellation instructions. Your cancellation generally will take effect at the end of the billing cycle in which you cancel, and you will maintain access to your Account until then.
c. Taxes. The fees do not include any Sales Tax (defined below) that may be due in connection with the Service provided under this Agreement. If Function determines it has a legal obligation to collect Sales Tax from you in connection with this Agreement, Function shall collect such Sales Tax in addition to the fees. If any services, or payments for any services, under this Agreement are subject to any Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to Function, you shall be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority, and you shall indemnify Function for any liability or expense Function may incur in connection with such Sales Taxes. Upon Function’s request, you will provide it with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or other such evidence that you have paid all applicable taxes. For purposes of this section, “Sales Tax” means any sales or use tax and any other tax measured by sales proceeds that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.,
d. Membership Purchases through Third-Party Sellers. You may be able to purchase a Function membership through authorized third-party ecommerce and in-store retailers, made available by Function in its sole discretion. As applicable for online (ecommerce) orders, you will be charged for your purchase of the membership at the time of purchase, not delivery. When you make such a purchase, you will receive a redemption code (the “Membership Code”) that you must redeem on the Function website at www.functionhealth.com or as otherwise stated on the third-party seller platform or in an associated communication. You agree and understand that your membership is not active (and the membership time period does not commence) until you redeem the Membership Code on the Function website.
For online purchases, the Membership Code may be delivered to you via email or via physical delivery (i.e., mailed to you). If you make your purchase at an in-store retailer, your Membership Code may not be usable unless it is appropriately activated at the time of purchase. Your Membership Code remains valid (until expiration) for a membership in the duration indicated regardless of whether Function’s standard price for the same membership duration changes after you make your purchase. You must use the Membership Code provided to you to redeem the membership on the Function website prior to any expiration indicated at the time of purchase. Consult the packaging or other materials provided with your Membership Code for information regarding how long it remains valid for redemption and for any additional terms or information.
A Membership Code can only be redeemed once and only for an eligible membership made available by Function and in accordance with these Terms. Your purchased Membership Code is not transferable (except as expressly permitted herein) and is subject to expiration as indicated. A Membership Code cannot be redeemed for cash (unless required by applicable law), resold, partially redeemed, or combined with any other offers or any other purchases. Membership Codes may not be used for unauthorized advertising, marketing, sweepstakes or other promotional purposes.
You may choose to provide the Membership Code that you have purchased as a gift (such recipient of the gift, a “Recipient”). Neither you nor your Recipient (if applicable) is eligible for any refund or other credits arising out of or related to a Membership Code that is not redeemed in accordance with these Terms. Function is not responsible for and assumes no liability for any Membership Code you gift to a Recipient. Your Membership Code cannot be replaced, and Function is not responsible, if it is lost, stolen or otherwise used by someone other than yourself or the intended Recipient without permission. Function assumes no liability for any Membership Code acquired in violation of these Terms, including without limitation any Membership Code purchased from an unauthorized third-party seller or a reseller.
Subject to applicable law, we reserve the right, without notice to you, to void your Membership Code and not provide your membership if we suspect that a Membership Code is obtained, used, transferred or otherwise applied fraudulently, unlawfully, or otherwise in violation of these Terms.
e. Refund and Account Credit Policy.

a. Choice of Law. Any Claim arising out of or relating to Function, our Affiliates, our Services, our Products, a transaction in connection with one or more Products and/or Services, one or more of third-party Offerings arising out of and/or relating to our Services and/or Products, and/or the Terms will be construed and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of laws principles, except to the extent that Texas law is preempted by or inconsistent with federal law.
b. Venue and Jurisdiction. Except to the extent that a dispute is arbitrated or brought in small claims court pursuant to Section 17 below, the parties agree that all disputes must be litigated in the state or federal courts the State of Texas. You and Function each waive any defense or claim of lack of personal jurisdiction, the inappropriateness of venue, or forum non conveniens.
c. U.S. Jurisdiction; Foreign Access. Function and its properties are located in and operated from the United States. Our Services are intended only for use by persons located in the United States. Function does not intend to be subject to any non-U.S. law or jurisdiction, under any circumstances, and you agree that you shall not pursue any claims, disputes, or controversies against Function insofar as they are subject Function to non-U.S. law or jurisdiction. Moreover, you acknowledge and agree that Function makes no representation or warranty that our Services -- including without limitation our Site, the FH Content and any Lab Results relating to our Services -- are accessible, legally permitted, and/or appropriate for consumption in any countries or jurisdictions outside of the United States. It may not be legal for your and/or other persons to access this Site based on the country or jurisdiction in which you and/or such persons are located; you accordingly assume all risk, liability, and responsibility in connection with accessing this Site outside of the United States and complying with any laws, rules, regulations, or guidelines applicable thereto. Furthermore, insofar as you are resident of a country other than the United States and/or located in such a country when accessing our Services (e.g., in a country belonging to the European Union), you acknowledge that you are engaging in the transfer of data and information to the United States, which may have less protective data laws, privacy regulations, and disclosure regulations than your country of residency and/or location.
17. Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
a. Agreement to Arbitrate. This Section 17 is referred to in these Terms as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disagreements, controversies, disputes, or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Function, whether arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms (including any alleged breach thereof), the Service, the Site, the Mobile App, any advertising or communications you receive, or any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us (each a “Dispute”), shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that (i) you and Function may assert individual claims in small claims court, if such claims qualify and remain in small claims court; and (ii) you or Function may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement, “Dispute” will also include disputes that arose or that involve facts occurring before the existence of this or any prior versions of the Terms, unless those disputes were noticed prior to these Terms becoming effective, as well as claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms. Further, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, and such agencies can, if the Law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf.
b. Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND FUNCTION HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Function are instead electing that all Disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in the subsection above entitled “Agreement to Arbitrate”. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
c. Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief. EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BE BROUGHT, HEARD, ADMINISTERED, RESOLVED, OR ARBITRATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE. Subject to this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the party's individual claim. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to, nor shall it, affect the terms and conditions under the subsection below entitled “Batch Arbitration.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, if a final decision, not subject to any further appeal or recourse, determines that the limitations of this subsection, “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief,” are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and Function agree that that particular claim or request for relief (and only that particular claim or request for relief) shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in the state or federal courts located in Austin, TX. All other Disputes shall be arbitrated or litigated in small claims court. This subsection does not prevent you or Function from participating in a class-wide or mass settlement of claims.
d. Informal Dispute Resolution. Function is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing Function’s customer support at hello@functionhealth.com. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, you and Function agree to participate in good faith informal efforts to resolve Disputes before starting an arbitration or initiating an action in small claims court (“Informal Dispute Resolution”). You and Function agree that as part of these efforts, either party has the option to ask the other to meet and confer telephonically (“Informal Dispute Resolution Conference”). If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference, but you must also personally participate.
To initiate Informal Dispute Resolution, a party must give notice in writing to the other party (“Notice”). Such Notice to Function should be sent by email to legal@functionhealth.com or by regular mail to Function Health, Inc., Attention: Legal Dept., 600 Congress Ave Fl 14 Austin, TX 78701 (“Notice Address”). The Notice must include: (1) your name, telephone number, mailing address, and e‐mail address associated with your account (if you have one); (2) the name, telephone number, mailing address and e‐mail address of your counsel, if any; and (3) a description of the Dispute. Function will send Notice, including a description of the Dispute, to your email address or regular address on file. It is your responsibility to ensure your email and regular address are correct and remain up to date.
The Informal Dispute Resolution process lasts 45 days and is a mandatory precondition to commencing arbitration. During this period, either party has the option to ask the other to participate in an Information Dispute Resolution Conference as part of a good faith effort to resolve the Dispute. The Informal Dispute Resolution Conference shall be individualized such that a separate conference may be held each time either party initiates a Dispute, even if the same law firm or group of law firms or organizations represents multiple users in similar cases, unless all parties agree; multiple individuals initiating a Dispute cannot participate in the same Informal Dispute Resolution Conference unless all parties agree.
The statute of limitations and any filing deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in Informal Dispute Resolution.
e. Rules and Forum. The Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce; and notwithstanding any other provision herein with respect to the applicable substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement, including the procedures governing Batch Arbitration, and any arbitration. If Informal Dispute Resolution does not resolve satisfactorily within forty-five (45) days after receipt of a Notice, you and Function agree that either party shall have the right to finally resolve the Dispute through binding arbitration. The arbitration will be administered by the National Arbitration & Mediation ("NAM”) in accordance with the NAM Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedure (the “NAM Comprehensive Rules”) in effect at the time of arbitration , except as supplemented, where applicable, by the NAM Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (the “NAM Mass Filing Rules”; together with the NAM Comprehensive Rules, the “NAM Rules”), and as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The NAM Rules are currently available at https://www.namadr.com/resources/rules-fees-forms/.
A party who wishes to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a request for arbitration (the “Demand”). The Demand must include: (1) the name, telephone number, mailing address, e‐mail address of the party seeking arbitration, as well as the email address associated with any applicable account; (2) a statement of the legal claims being asserted and the factual bases of those claims; (3) a description of the remedy sought and an accurate, good‐faith calculation of the amount in controversy in United States Dollars; (4) a statement certifying completion of the Informal Dispute Resolution process as described above; and (5) a statement certifying that the requesting party will pay any necessary filing fees in connection with such arbitration. Any Demand you send to Function should be sent by email to legal@functionhealth.com or regular mail to our offices located at Function Health, Inc., Attention: Legal Dept., 600 Congress Ave Fl 14 Austin TX 78701. Function will provide the Demand to your email/regular address on file.
If the party requesting arbitration is represented by counsel, the Demand shall also include counsel’s name, telephone number, mailing address, and email address. Such counsel must also sign the Demand. By signing the Demand, counsel certifies to the best of counsel’s knowledge, information, and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, that, consistent with the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b): (1) the Demand is not being presented for any improper purpose, such as to harass, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase the cost of dispute resolution; (2) the claims, defenses and other legal contentions are warranted by existing law or by a nonfrivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or for establishing new law; and (3) the factual and damages contentions have evidentiary support or, if specifically so identified, will likely have evidentiary support after a reasonable opportunity for further investigation or discovery (“Counsel’s Certification”).
Unless you and Function otherwise agree, or the Batch Arbitration process discussed below is triggered, the arbitration, including any in-person arbitration hearing, will be conducted in Austin, TX, or, at your election, the county where you reside. Subject to the NAM Rules, the arbitrator may direct a limited and reasonable exchange of information between the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration. If NAM is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. Your responsibility to pay any NAM fees and costs will be solely as set forth in the applicable NAM fee schedules (the “Fee Schedules”). However, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Function will pay as much of the arbitration fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive.
You and Function agree that all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings shall be kept confidential and shall not be shared with anyone except the parties’ attorneys, accountants, or business advisors, and then subject to the condition that they agree to keep all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings confidential.
You and Function agree that at least 14 days before the date set for an arbitration hearing, any party may serve an offer in writing upon the other party to allow judgment on specified terms. If the offer made by one party is not accepted by the other party, and the other party fails to obtain a more favorable award, the other party shall not recover any post-offer costs to which they otherwise would be entitled and shall pay the offering party’s costs from the time of the offer.
f. Arbitrator. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Texas and will be selected by the parties from NAM's roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within thirty-five (35) days of delivery of the Demand, then NAM will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with NAM Rules, provided that if the Batch Arbitration process is triggered, NAM, without soliciting input or feedback from any party, will appoint the arbitrator for each batch, subject to your right to object to that appointment.
g. Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, including, without limitation, disputes regarding the interpretation or application of the Arbitration Agreement, including the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity of the Arbitration Agreement or any portion of the Arbitration Agreement, except that all Disputes regarding the subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief,” including any claim that all or part of the subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” is unenforceable, illegal, void or voidable, or that such subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” has been breached, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any Dispute. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
h. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. The parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the Dispute or the relief sought in the Demand was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). To the extent, following a presentation on the merits, on its own motion or a party’s, and after affording a reasonable opportunity to respond, an arbitrator determines that a party who commenced arbitration did not bring its claim(s) consistent with Counsel’s Certification and the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), the parties agree that the arbitrator shall, as part of its award, impose sanctions by ordering that the initiating party reimburse the responding party for all arbitration filing and administrative fees and arbitrator costs the responding party incurred under the Fee Schedules.
i. Batch Arbitration. To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and Function agree that in the event that there are twenty-five (25) or more individual Demands of a substantially similar nature filed against Function by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations (“Claimants’ Counsel”), within a reasonably proximate period of time, for example, a ninety (90) day period, NAM shall (1) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 Demands per batch (or, if between twenty-five (25) and ninety-nine (99) individual Demands are filed, a single batch of all those Demands, and, to the extent there are fewer than 100 Demands remaining after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining Demands); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch on a consolidated basis with one set of filing and administrative fees due per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be determined by the arbitrator, and one final award, which will provide for any and all relief to which the arbitrator determines each individual party is entitled (“Batch Arbitration”). NAM shall administer all batches concurrently, to the extent possible.
All parties agree that Demands are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issue(s) and seek the same or similar relief. To the extent the parties disagree on the application of the Batch Arbitration process, the disagreeing party shall advise NAM, and NAM shall appoint a sole standing Procedural Arbitrator or, should the circumstances so require, an Emergency Arbitrator, according to the NAM Rules, to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process (the Procedural Arbitrator or Emergency Arbitrator, the “Administrative Arbitrator”). In an effort to expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve any disputes promptly. The Administrative Arbitrator’s fees shall be paid by Function.
You and Function agree to cooperate in good faith with NAM to implement the Batch Arbitration process including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of Demands, as well as any steps to minimize the time and costs of arbitration, which may include: (1) the appointment of a discovery special master to assist the arbitrator in the resolution of discovery disputes; and (2) the adoption of an expedited calendar of the arbitration proceedings.
This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing or creating a class, collective, and/or representative arbitration or action of any kind, except as expressly set forth in this provision, and nothing about the Batch Arbitration process will preclude any party from participating in any arbitration administered according to that process.
j. 30-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to: Function Health, Inc., Attention: Legal Dept., 600 Congress Ave Fl 14 Austin TX 78701 or legal@functionhealth.com, within thirty (30) days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, the email address you used to set up your Account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. Any opt-out notice will be effective only if you send it yourself, on an individual basis, and opt out notices from any third-party purporting to act on your behalf will have no effect on your or Function’s rights. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any arbitration agreements that you may currently have with us, including any previous versions of this Arbitration Agreement to which you agreed and did not timely opt out, which will remain in effect, and has no effect on any arbitration agreements with us you may enter in the future.
k. Invalidity, Expiration. Except as provided in the subsection entitled “Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief” above, if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the subsection entitled “Batch Arbitration”) are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. However, if subsection entitled “Batch Arbitration” of this Arbitration Agreement is found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable then, in that case, the entire Arbitration Agreement shall be void, and the parties agree that all Disputes will be heard in the state or federal courts located in Austin, TX. You further agree that any Dispute that you have with Function as detailed in this Arbitration Agreement must be initiated within the applicable statute of limitation for that claim or controversy, or it will be forever time barred. Likewise, you agree that all applicable statutes of limitation will apply to such arbitration in the same manner as those statutes of limitation would apply in the applicable court of competent jurisdiction.
l. Future Changes to Arbitration Agreement. You and we agree that Function retains the right to modify this Arbitration Agreement in the future. Any such changes will be posted at https://www.functionhealth.com/terms-of-serviceand you should check for updates regularly. We agree that if Function makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, it will notify you. Your continued use of the Site and/or Service, including the acceptance of products and services offered on the Site or Mobile App, following the posting of changes to this Arbitration Agreement, constitutes your acceptance of any such changes. If you have previously agreed to a version of these Terms with an arbitration agreement and you did not validity opt out of arbitration then, changes to this Arbitration Agreement do not provide you with a new opportunity to opt out of your previous agreement to arbitrate. Function will continue to honor any valid opt outs of the Arbitration Agreement that you made to a prior version of these Terms.

16. Choice of Law and Jurisdiction
a. Choice of Law. Any Claim arising out of or relating to Function, our Affiliates, our Services, our Products, a transaction in connection with one or more Products and/or Services, one or more of third-party Offerings arising out of and/or relating to our Services and/or Products, and/or the Terms will be construed and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of laws principles, except to the extent that Texas law is preempted by or inconsistent with federal law.
b. Venue and Jurisdiction. Except to the extent that a dispute is arbitrated or brought in small claims court pursuant to Section 17 below, the parties agree that all disputes must be litigated in the state or federal courts the State of Texas. You and Function each waive any defense or claim of lack of personal jurisdiction, the inappropriateness of venue, or forum non conveniens.
c. U.S. Jurisdiction; Foreign Access. Function and its properties are located in and operated from the United States. Our Services are intended only for use by persons located in the United States. Function does not intend to be subject to any non-U.S. law or jurisdiction, under any circumstances, and you agree that you shall not pursue any claims, disputes, or controversies against Function insofar as they are subject Function to non-U.S. law or jurisdiction. Moreover, you acknowledge and agree that Function makes no representation or warranty that our Services -- including without limitation our website, the FH Content and any Lab Results relating to our Services -- are accessible, legally permitted, and/or appropriate for consumption in any countries or jurisdictions outside of the United States. It may not be legal for your and/or other persons to access this site based on the country or jurisdiction in which you and/or such persons are located; you accordingly assume all risk, liability, and responsibility in connection with accessing this site outside of the United States and complying with any laws, rules, regulations, or guidelines applicable thereto. Furthermore, insofar as you are resident of a country other than the United States and/or located in such a country when accessing our Services (e.g., in a country belonging to the European Union), you acknowledge that you are engaging in the transfer of data and information to the United States, which may have less protective data laws, privacy regulations, and disclosure regulations than your country of residency and/or location.
17. Binding Arbitration of Disputes on an Individual Basis.
a. Claims subject to arbitration. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and Function agree to arbitrate all Claims arising out of or relating to Function, our Affiliates, these Terms, our Services, our Products, a transaction in connection with one or more Products and/or Services, Personal Information, one or more of third-party products and/or services arising out of and/or relating to our Services and/or Products. This arbitration provision is intended to be broadly interpreted. It includes, but is not limited to:
- Claims relating to our facilitation of third-party laboratory services, your Sample, an analysis of your Sample, your Lab Results, any documents, communications, data, or information relating to your Lab Results, and/or any actions and/or omissions in connection therewith and/or resulting therefrom;
- Claims relating to any aspect of the relationship between you and Function, whether based in contract, tort, negligence, fraud, misrepresentation, trespass, or any other statutory or common-law legal theory;
- Claims relating to your interactions with or any actions taken by Function, our Affiliates, and/or any of our third-party affiliates and/or providers;
- Claims relating to the FH Content, your receipt and/or review thereof, your distribution thereof, and/or any actions and/or omissions in connection therewith and/or resulting therefrom;
- Claims relating to Function's use, protection, or disclosure of information about you, including your Personal Information;
- Claims concerning Function's marketing and/or advertising of third-party products and services to you;
- Claims that arose before your acceptance of the Terms or any current or prior agreement between you and Function, such as Claims related to advertising or disclosures;
- Claims that arise after the termination of this or any other agreement between you and Function; and
- Except as specified in Section 17.b below, any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, scope, waiver, or enforceability of this arbitration provision, such as a dispute over whether a Claim can or must be brought in arbitration.
In this Section 17 only, references in this to "Function," "we," "our," and "us" include our respective predecessors in interest, as well as our respective past, present, and future subsidiaries, Affiliates, related entities, and all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of our Services or any Products purchased from Function. You agree that, by agreeing to the Terms, you and Function are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. The Terms evidence a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. This arbitration provision, as set forth by the terms of this Section 17, shall survive termination of your use of our Services.
b. Claims not subject to arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you or Function may bring an action in your local small claims court seeking only individualized relief, so long as the action remains in that court and is not removed or appealed to a court of general jurisdiction. If your jurisdiction permits small claims court judgments to be removed or appealed to a court of general jurisdiction for a trial de novo, that appeal shall be resolved in arbitration in accordance with this arbitration provision. This arbitration provision does not preclude you or Function from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies or law enforcement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any dispute over the applicability and/or enforceability of any of the terms and/or conditions in this Section 17(b), shall be determined in a court of competent jurisdiction unless the parties mutually agree otherwise in writing. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, either Party may bring a claim arising out of and/or relating to intellectual property rights, or seek temporary or preliminary relief and/or specific performance, in any court of competent jurisdiction, without the posting of bond or other security.
c. Class Action Waiver. The arbitrator may award relief (including, but not limited to, damages, restitution, declaratory relief, and 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. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND FUNCTION EACH AGREE TO BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LE LAW, YOU AND FUNCTION EACH AGREE NOT TO PURSUE OR RECOVER ANY DAMAGES OR OTHER RELIEF IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, MASS ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING, OR OTHER AGGREGATED PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Function agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's Claims. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the arbitrator may not preside over any form of a collective action, class action, mass action, private attorney general action, or other aggregated proceeding. If, after exhaustion of all appeals, any of the aforementioned prohibitions on non-individualized relief is found to be unenforceable with respect to a particular Claim then the parties agree that such a Claim or request for relief shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction after all other claims and requests for relief shall be arbitrated.
d. Arbitration procedures. A Party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other a written Notice of Dispute. A Notice of Dispute to Function should be addressed to Function Health, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, 600 Congress Ave Fl 14 Austin TX 78701. A Notice of Dispute to you will be sent to the last address you provided to Function. A Notice of Dispute must (i) provide your name, address, phone number, and the email address we have on file for you; (ii) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (iii) set forth the specific relief sought. The Parties agree to negotiate regarding any claim or dispute subject to a Notice of Dispute for a period of not less than sixty (60) days from receipt of said Notice-- and if the Parties do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within sixty (60) days after the Notice of Dispute is received, you or Function may commence arbitration with JAMS, which shall administer the arbitration under its Consumer Arbitration Rules in effect at the time ("JAMS Rules"), no later than the latest date permitted by the statute of limitations that would have applied to said a dispute if it had proceeded in a court of competent jurisdiction instead of in arbitration. You may obtain a copy of the JAMS Rules by visiting the JAMS website at jams.org. If the JAMS is unavailable to administer an arbitration, another provider will be selected by agreement of the parties or by the court pursuant to 9 U.S.C. § 5. Except as specified in this Agreement (e.g., limitations and exclusions around Claims and Losses), the arbitrator can award the same remedies available under applicable law that a court can award. The arbitrator may consider rulings in other arbitrations involving different customers, but an arbitrator's ruling will not be binding in proceedings involving different customers. Unless you and Function agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place by videoconference or by telephone or resolve claims or defenses on the basis of papers submitted by the parties, or to the extent not permitted, at the JAMS location nearest your billing address. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, a single arbitrator will conduct the arbitration -- as agreed-upon by the Parties within ten (10) business days following the commencement of Arbitration, or as alternatively determined pursuant to the JAMS rules -- and said arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision. The award shall be final and binding on the parties; judgment may be entered on the award by any court with jurisdiction and by any state or federal court in Houston, Texas, the jurisdiction and venue of which you and Function both agree, and such a judgment shall not be subject to modification, appeal, or vacation except as allowed by Sections 10 and 11 of the Federal Arbitration Act, which the Parties hereby agree apply to these Terms. Except as otherwise explicitly stated in this Agreement, the arbitrator shall have the sole and final authority to decide on the validity, applicability, and scope of the arbitration provisions of this agreement, as well as the arbitrability of a Party's claim(s).
e. Arbitration fees. If Function initiates arbitration or you initiate arbitration of claims valued at $25,000 or less, Function will pay all JAMS filing, administration, case management, hearing, and arbitrator fees ("JAMS Fees"), so long as you have fully complied with the Notice of Dispute requirements in Section 17.d. If you seek relief valued at greater than $25,000, the payment of JAMS Fees shall be governed by the JAMS Rules. Nothing in this Section 17.e prevents the arbitrator from reallocating the JAMS Fees in accordance with the JAMS Rules in the event that the arbitrator finds that a claim violates the standards set in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11.
f. 30-Day period to reject arbitration. You may opt out of this Section 17 of the Terms within thirty (30) days of execution by providing written notice to Function Health, Inc., Attention: Legal Dept., 600 Congress Ave Fl 14 Austin TX 78701. To be valid, an opt-out notice must (i) include your name, the email address we have on file for you, and a statement that you are rejecting the arbitration provision in the Terms; and (ii) be received by Function within 30 days after your initial acceptance of the Terms. If you elect to opt-out under this paragraph, you agree that all other terms and conditions herein stated and stated in other agreements between you and shall remain in full force and effect; that includes, without limitation any other arbitration agreements between you and Function.
g. Time Limitation on Claims. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and Function agree that any claim, dispute, controversy, matter, or cause of action arising out of and/or relating to Function, our Affiliates, these Terms, our Services, our Products, a transaction in connection with one or more Products and/or Services, Personal Information, and/or one or more of third-party products and/or services arising out of and/or relating to our Services and/or Products shall be permanently barred if it is not filed and/or submitted for arbitration within one year of when the alleging party knew or reasonably should have known of the issue or matter giving rise thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph shall not apply to the filing and/or submission of any counterclaim.
18. Miscellaneous
a. Except as expressly permitted otherwise in writing by Function, you may not assign, delegate, sell, or transfer any of your rights or obligations under these Terms. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 18.a is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves you of any of your obligations under these Terms. Notwithstanding anything herein contrary, Function may freely assign, delegate, sell, and/or transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms-- and any assets relating to, arising out of, and/or concerning these Terms -- including without limitation circumstances of sale, merger, acquisition, reincorporation, consolidation, reorganization, or other change of control. These Terms will be binding on the Parties' heirs, permitted assigns, administrators, and other legal represents, and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and any of its successors and/or assigns.
b. You acknowledge and agree that Function shall not hold any liability or responsibility for any Losses -- or be deemed to have defaulted or breached these Terms -- for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of these Terms that results from factors beyond the scope of our reasonable control. This includes without limitation, acts of God, weather, the slowdown or shutdown of carriers, transportation, and/or utilities, strikes and protests, border delays, health crises and/or pandemic illnesses, closures and/or lockdowns, acts of warfare and/or terrorism, and actions taken by government agencies.
c. If any of the Terms herein -- or any portion(s) of any terms or conditions -- are held unenforceable, the impact of that unenforceability (i.e. limitation or exclusion of terms) will be construed as narrowly as possible to the extent permitted by applicable law and it does not invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction; moreover, the remainder of these Terms-- and all other portions thereof -- shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect to the extent legally permissible.
d. Any translation of these Terms, your Lab Results, and/or the FH Content is merely provided as a convenience. Any discrepancy or dispute involving a translated version of these Terms, your Lab Results, and/or the FH Content and the English version thereof shall be resolved in favor of the English version. Our headings and section titles in these Terms are provided strictly for your convenience; they have no binding or representative effect on either Party.
e. No waiver under these Terms is effective unless it is in writing, identified as a waiver to these Terms, and signed by an authorized representative of the Party waiving its right(s). The Parties agree that any failure by either Party to require the other's strict adherence to any term or condition herein shall, in no manner, be construed as a waiver of any right(s) by that Party, nor shall such a failure be construed to remove or dilute the effect of any term, condition, or requirement stated in these Terms. These Terms may not be amended or modified unless specified in writing and bearing the consent of both Parties.
f. Insofar as these Terms include any errors or ambiguities related to spelling, grammar, or syntax -- or any other clear errors or ambiguities -- these errors and ambiguities shall be construed to reflect the intent of the Parties. This includes, without limitation: (a) any ambiguities, inconsistencies, misuses, or uncertainties around the usage of the word "and" vs. "or" vs. "and/or"; and (b) any ambiguities, inconsistencies, misuses, or uncertainties around the usage of the word "including" -- which shall mean "including without limitation," rather than as point of exclusion, unless otherwise noted; (c) any ambiguities, inconsistencies, misuses, or uncertainties around the usage of the word "Service" vs. "Services" vs. "Service(s)" - which shall not render any language inapplicable by virtue of the fact that it does or does not refer to more than one (1) Service. The Parties agree that the Terms shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or burdening any of the Parties by virtue of the authorship of any term or condition herein appearing; the language used herein will be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Party.
g. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications from you to Function in connection with these Terms (each, a "Notice") shall be in writing and addressed to Function at the address on this website. All Notices shall be delivered by personal delivery, nationally recognized overnight courier (with all fees pre-paid) or certified or registered mail (in each case, return receipt requested, postage prepaid).
h. These Terms benefit solely the Parties and their permitted assigns and nothing in these Terms, express or implied, confers on any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of these Terms.
i. These Terms, including without limitation the Privacy Policy, along with any further membership agreement and/or any other consent for Services to which you have consented, collectively, constitute the entire agreement between you and Function with respect to our Services and supersede all prior and/or contemporaneous agreements between you and Function, whether oral or written, arising out of and/or relating to our Services. In the event of any conflict between a term and/or condition between you and Function, on the one hand, and a third-party term and/or condition, on the other hand, Function's term and/or condition shall control.

20. Referral Program Terms
If you are participating in the Function Health Referral Program (“Referral Program”), the following terms and conditions (“Referral Program Terms”) apply to your participation in the Referral Program, in addition to all other provisions of these Terms and Function’s Privacy Policy.
- Modification or Termination of The Referral Program. The Referral Program is offered at the discretion of Function and we reserve the right to terminate, suspend, or modify the Referral Program and the Referral Program Terms, in whole or in part, at any time, for any reason. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we may deactivate your Code (as defined below), modify the Referral Fee (as defined below), conditions of participation in the Referral Program, or any other aspect of the Referral Program, effective immediately. Any material modifications to the Referral Program or the Referral Program Terms will be communicated by email and/or the Site, and these Terms will be updated accordingly. Your continued participation in the Referral Program following the effective date of such modifications will be deemed your agreement and binding acceptance of such modifications.
- Eligibility. The Referral Program is available to you if you have an active Account and you are not a licensed healthcare professional. If at any time your circumstances change in a way that impacts your eligibility (e.g., you become a licensed healthcare practitioner), then you must immediately notify us by sending an email to referrals@functionhealth.com. If we believe you are in breach of the foregoing eligibility requirements, we may reject, suspend, or terminate your participation in the Referral Program. If your Account is terminated for any reason, your participation in the Referral Program will automatically terminate effective immediately. To participate in the Referral Program, you must create an account with Impact Tech, Inc. (“Impact”), Function’s vendor managing the Referral Program, and provide valid bank account information for purposes of receiving direct deposits of Referral Fees in connection with your participation in the Referral Program. Any bank account and other information provided to Impact by you will be subject to Impact’s privacy policy and your use of Impact’s platform and services, including your account with Impact, is subject to your agreement with Impact. Function is not responsible for any acts or omissions or Impact or your access to or use of Impact’s platform and services.
- Referral Code. Each User participating in the Referral Program will be provided with a personal referral code (“Code”) to share with each User’s personal network for the purposes of generating referrals, subject to the following conditions.
(i) Your Code is personal to you and intended to be shared by you directly and personally with your personal network. You must not share your Code with any individual engaged in a commercial operation in connection with membership enrollment or using discount codes, or otherwise employ another individual to promote or circulate your Code.
(ii) You must at all times comply with the Federal Trade Commission’s (“FTC’s”) Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, located and the FTC’s Endorsement Guides: What People Are Asking (collectively, the “FTC Guides”) in connection with your participation in the Referral Program. To comply with the FTC Guides, you must, among other requirements, disclose the fact that you may receive a referral fee from Function if the recipient uses your Code to sign up for a Function membership (e.g., “this is a paid referral”) when sharing your Code. In addition, you must comply with the Function Referral Program Content Guidelines (“Content Guidelines”) at all times. In the event we become aware of your violation of the Content Guidelines or suspect that you are in violation of the Content Guidelines (in each case, as determined by us in our sole discretion), we reserve the right to deactivate your Code immediately and otherwise suspend or terminate your participation in the Referral Program and you will not have the right to receive any Referral Fees.
(iii) You cannot use your Code to purchase membership for you (e.g., renew your membership) or for another person.
(iv) You must not, directly or indirectly: (i) utilize any scripts, bots, automatic dialers, or other artificial intelligence or automated technologies to circulate your Code and/or related communications in mass distribution fashion; (ii) share or distribute your Code by text or email in a manner that violates the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”), Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003 (the “CAN-SPAM Act”), or any other applicable law; or (iii) take any actions intended to influence an individual’s purchase of laboratory testing or healthcare service.
(v) You must not directly or indirectly post or otherwise promote your Code on any commercial media properties, including without limitation any commercial website and social media account, such as those websites accounts which furnish (or purport to furnish) consumers with coupon codes and/or otherwise leverage referral traffic.
- Compensation.
(i) Referral Fee: You will receive a referral fee of One Hundred U.S. Dollars ($100.00) (the “Referral Fee”) for each Qualifying Referral (as defined below), subject to the Referral Program Terms. There is no limit to the number of Qualifying Referrals or the amount of Referral Fees that you can receive. “Qualifying Referral” is an individual who (i) opens a new Account (i.e., does not have and has not previously had an account for the Services) (“New Account”) with at least a “Basic Membership” using your Code; and (ii) maintains such New Account active for at least sixty (60) days from the effective date of the New Account opening. “Basic Membership” refers to the basic version of a membership Account, which includes access to concierge and technology services, and valuable content (e.g., access to content from Function’s library, webinars with media personality and/or subject matter specialist) and offerings for products and services, but does not include the purchase of any third-party laboratory testing services, medical services, or any other healthcare items or services. For clarity, a New Account will only be subject to a Referral Fee and payable to you if: (a) you have complied with all applicable terms and conditions (e.g. Referral Program Terms, these Terms) in referring the New Account to Function; and (b) the registrant of the New Account is a Qualifying Referral who used your Code at the time of sign-up.
(ii) Tracking Qualifying Referrals. We will provide you with periodic updates via email regarding the number of Qualifying Referrals generated using your Code.

(iv) Limitations on Referral Fee.

- You will not be entitled to any Referral Fee that arises out of and/or relates to one or more of the following: (a) a mistake on our part, (b) fraudulent conduct (by you, Qualifying Referral, or otherwise), (c) your acts and/or omissions in breach of the Referral Program Terms or any other provision of these Terms, (d) a technical malfunction, (e) interference with Function’s systems and/or technologies, and/or (f) the acts and/or omissions of any third party (intentional, negligent, or otherwise) that adversely impact the determination of a Qualifying Referral and/or result in the improper qualification of, tabulation of, and/or payment to one or more Qualifying Referrals (collectively, “Extenuating Circumstances”).
- In the event your Account is suspended for any reason, you will not be entitled to any Referral Fees generated during the period of suspension. If your Account is terminated, (a) you will forfeit any unpaid Referral Fees if such termination is for cause, or (b) we will pay you all Referral Fees accrued as of the effective date of termination if the Account is terminated due to expiration of your membership.
- General Conditions.
- Our measurement of Qualifying Referrals will be the sole source of determining whether and to what extent you will receive any Referral Fees. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we retain the sole and final decisional authority regarding (a) whether to issue a Referral Fee to you; and (b) whether a Referral Fee was improperly issued to you.
- You are solely responsible for ensuring that Impact has your current designated bank account information. Neither Function nor Impact is responsible for any returned direct deposits.
- In addition to and without the limitation of all other remedies that may be available to us, and to the fullest extent allowed by law, if we determine, in our sole, final, and reasonable discretion, that any Referral Fees already paid to you should not have been issued due to one or more Extenuating Circumstances, you agree that, in addition to all other remedies available at law, within fourteen (14) days of our written, detailed demand for the return of one or more improperly paid Referral Fees, you will return any and all such Referral Fees to us at the address and/or account information provided by us.
