PLEASE NOTE THE ARBITRATION PROVISION SET FORTH BELOW, WHICH MAY, EXCEPT WHERE AND TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW, REQUIRE YOU TO ARBITRATE ANY CLAIMS YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST COMPANY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE, AND YOU WAIVE, THE RIGHT FOR A JUDGE OR JURY TO DECIDE YOUR CLAIMS, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY.
License
Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with these Terms, EyecareSearch grants you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive, revocable, limited license to access and use the Services. We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you by these Terms. You are solely responsible (and we have no responsibility to you or to any third party) for any breach of your obligations under this Agreement or for any consequences (including any loss or damage, whether direct or indirect) which you or third parties may suffer as a result of any such breach.
Permitted Users
As a condition of your use of the Services, you represent and warrant that you are at least the legal age of majority where you reside and you have the legal authority to enter into this Agreement. If you are the parent, legal guardian, or duly authorized personal representative of an individual, you may use the Services on behalf of this individual. If you are accessing the Services on behalf of an individual, you represent and warrant that you have the appropriate legal authority to act on that individual’s behalf. If you are using the Services on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you are duly authorized to act on behalf of the entity and to accept this Agreement on behalf of the entity. By accessing or using the Services, you represent and warrant that you have not been barred from using the Services under all applicable laws, and that you have not been permanently suspended or otherwise removed from the Services. The Services are based in the United States. EyecareSearch makes no representation that any aspect of the Services is appropriate or available for use outside of the United States. EyecareSearch does not offer the Services to any resident of the European Union and no information of a resident of the European Union shall be entered into the Services. Those who access the Services from other locations are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws. The Services may be subject to applicable export laws and restrictions.
Registering for the Services
Portions of the Services are viewable and accessible to the public without registering with us (“Public Areas”). Users may choose to register with us to access additional parts of the Services (an “Account”). An Account is required to access portions of the Services that require us to process certain types of personal information. When creating an Account, you must provide only true, current, complete, and accurate information. You may be required to select an Account name to identify yourself to EyecareSearch as part of the registration process. You understand and acknowledge that you may be subject to reasonable Account verification required by us or our third-party service providers.
Accounts
Each Account shall be for the use of one individual or entity. You are responsible for all activities conducted through your Account. You shall be solely responsible for providing an Account password and maintaining its confidentiality. You shall be responsible for any harm resulting from your disclosing of Account credentials to any third party. At no time should you respond to an online request for a password other than through the log-on process for the Services. You have an affirmative duty to notify EyecareSearch in the event that you suspect your Account credentials have been compromised in any way and agree to immediately take all commercially reasonable steps to secure your Account.
Text Messaging (SMS) Communications
EyecareSearch may send you text messages ("SMS") if you provide us with your mobile phone number and request or consent to receive them. This includes one-time verification codes sent when you choose to verify your identity by text while claiming or managing a Provider Profile, and may also include other account-, service-, or listing-related messages and, where you separately opt in, messages about offers, promotions, and other information from EyecareSearch.
Message frequency varies. For listing-claim verification, you should generally expect one verification code message per claim attempt. Other account, service, and (where applicable) promotional messages may recur from time to time. Message and data rates may apply. Consenting to receive text messages is not required to use the Services; where text verification is offered, you may instead choose an alternative method, such as a phone call.
Reply HELP to any text message for assistance, or contact us at support@eyecaresearch.com. Reply STOP to any text message at any time to opt out of receiving further text messages from us; you may receive one final message confirming your opt-out.
Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Not all mobile devices or carriers may be supported. Your mobile phone number and text-message opt-in consent will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. For more information about how we collect, use, and share your information, see our Privacy Policy.
Services
Purpose of the Services
The Services are provided for general informational purposes only. The Services will allow a User to readily search for, and connect with, a Provider. Users will be able to narrow search results by a variety of tools and a proprietary matching algorithm to find a Provider that may meet their specific needs. The Services may also include additional information, text, links, graphics, photos, videos, audio, streams, or other materials created by us, Providers, or third parties (“Content”) available in a Public Area. Providers will create Content that is a profile for search to be published in a Public Area (“Provider Profile”) that may include information about education, licensure, services offered, insurance accepted, and eyewear brands carried. The Content in Public Areas cannot and shall not be construed as medical or professional advice or the practice of medicine or any other healthcare service. All Content in EyecareSearch, whether accessible in a Public Area or not, is not intended to be a substitute for medical or professional advice, diagnosis, or eye care. Users should always seek the advice of a physician, licensed provider, or other qualified health provider with any questions regarding any eye health or medical symptoms or conditions. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking an eye examination or care for any condition, actual or suspected, because of something you have read or seen on the Services. EyecareSearch does not recommend or endorse any specific tests, products, procedures, eyewear, lenses, individual providers or facilities, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned, written about, or featured on the site. Accessing or using the Services does not create a Provider-Patient relationship. We cannot guarantee that anyone you contact via the Services will respond to you within a certain period of time or at all, or that you will form a Provider-Patient relationship with any Provider on the Site.
Modification and Interruption of the Services
We may add, modify, suspend, or eliminate aspects, features, or functionality of the Services from time to time for the purposes of compliance with applicable laws and regulations, to effect improvements in security or functionality, to correct errors, for other commercially reasonable purposes, or for any or no reason at all. EyecareSearch may on occasion need to interrupt the Services with or without prior notice to protect the integrity or functionality of the Services. EyecareSearch will not be liable for any interruption of the Services (whether intentional or not), and you will not be entitled to any refunds of fees or other compensation for an interruption of Services.
User Conduct and Responsibilities
As a condition of your use of the Services, you agree that you will not use the Services for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by these Terms. Additionally, you agree, without limitation, not to:
- enable any person or entity not so authorized by us to use or access the Services;
- use the Services for another party or as otherwise prohibited herein;
- transfer your Account or the Services to anyone else;
- attempt to scrape, copy, or otherwise create derivative works of the Services;
- attempt to translate, disassemble, decompile, reverse assemble, reverse engineer all or any part of the Services or otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the Services;
- access (or attempt to access) the Site or Services by any means other than through the interface that is provided by us;
- attempt to probe, scan, breach, hack, or gain unauthorized access to, interfere with, damage, disrupt, impair, or circumvent any of the security features of any part of the Services and any underlying infrastructure;
- interfere with site operations (including, but not limited to, DDoS attacks, mailbombing, or any other form of malicious operation);
- send any harassing, disparaging, or unwanted communications to individuals or entities you have contacted or obtained contact information for through the Services;
- send unsolicited promotions, advertisements, or other queries not directed about the services offered by Providers; or
- use the Site in any way that violates federal, state, local or international law or regulation, or generally accepted practices or guidelines in relevant jurisdictions (including any laws or regulations regarding the export of data or software to and from the United States or other relevant countries or through infringement, misappropriation, or violation of any of the intellectual property rights of or the privacy or publicity rights of third parties, including other users of the Services).
Content
We reserve all rights to all materials on the Services, including, without limitation, written content, graphical and design elements (including the Services’ “look and feel”), and service marks and trademarks. The Services may contain Content submitted to the Services by you or through your Account (“Your Content”). We take no responsibility for, and we do not expressly or implicitly endorse, support, or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of any of Your Content. By submitting Your Content to the Services, you represent and warrant that you have all rights, power, and authority necessary to grant the rights to Your Content contained within these Terms. The burden of determining that any material is not protected by copyright rests with you. You shall be solely liable for any damages, claims, or losses resulting from any infringement of copyrights, proprietary rights, other intellectual property right, or any other harm resulting from Your Content, and hereby agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless EyecareSearch, its agents, officers, and assigns for any such actions. Because you alone are responsible for Your Content, you may expose yourself to liability if you submit Content without all necessary rights. You retain any ownership rights you have in Your Content, but you grant EyecareSearch the following license to use that Content:
When Your Content is submitted to the Services, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, copy, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, distribute, store, perform, and display Your Content (in whole or in part) and any name, voice, or likeness provided in connection with Your Content in all media formats and channels now known or later developed anywhere in the world. You also agree that we may remove metadata associated with Your Content, and you irrevocably waive any claims and assertions of moral rights or attribution with respect to Your Content.
By submitting Your Content to the Services, you agree not to republish Your Content anywhere else, and in any format whether print or electronic, unless EyecareSearch declines to publish Your Content and has provided a written notice of rejection. You acknowledge that if Your Content is published in any other format, EyecareSearch may, at its sole discretion, remove Your Content from the Services without notice or other obligation to you.
Editorial Control and Reliance on Content
We make the Services available as a service to Users for the purposes of providing an informative and educational resource. We may, but have no obligation to, have Content posted through the Services reviewed by our editorial personnel. It is important to note, however, that the timeliness, accuracy, and completeness of any or all such information is not guaranteed. Neither the authors, editorial personnel, nor any other party involved in the preparation or publication of Content through the Services can assure you that the information contained herein is in every respect accurate or complete, and we and they are not responsible for any errors or omissions or for the results obtained from the use of such information. You acknowledge and agree that EyecareSearch has the right and ability, but not the obligation, to modify formatting or titles, or make any other change it deems necessary in its sole discretion, to Your Content prior to it being published in the Services.
Users are responsible for independently verifying anything found on the site; reliance on information provided by any agent of EyecareSearch or Bull Flag, or any third party (including Providers), is solely at your own risk. You are encouraged to independently confirm the information provided through the Services with other sources and to seek the advice of a qualified Service Provider. Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers, or other information or Content expressed or made available by third parties, including Providers, are those of the respective author(s) and not of EyecareSearch. Under no circumstances will EyecareSearch be liable for any harm, loss, or damage caused by a User’s reliance on information obtained through the Services.
Prohibited Content
You may not upload, post, publish, or otherwise make available, in your Provider Profile, Your Content or anywhere else in the Services, any content not allowed by the Terms (“Prohibited Content”), including any content that:
- is protected by copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right without the express permission of the owner of the copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right;
- is false, misleading, inaccurate, malicious, harmful, obscene, libelous, defamatory, threatening, harassing, abusive, hateful, or invasive of privacy or publicity rights (including content that depicts other individuals without their permission or appropriate license);
- violates or infringes in anyway upon the rights of others;
- encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law;
- interferes with other Users’ ability to use or enjoy the Services; or
- solicits participation in multi-level marketing opportunities, franchises, club memberships, distributorships, or any other activity that would require a monetary investment except for the healthcare and related services you offer on your Provider Profile.
Although we have no obligation to screen, edit, or monitor any Content within the Services, we may (in our sole discretion), delete, remove, or otherwise modify any Prohibited Content. We may, in our sole discretion, terminate your Account and permanently suspend you from accessing the Services, for violations of Prohibited Content. We shall have no further obligation to you in the event of such termination.
Third-Party Content
Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers, or other information or content expressed or made available by third parties are those of the respective author(s) or distributor(s) and not of EyecareSearch. The Services may contain links to or otherwise support connections to third-party websites or other online services that are not owned or controlled by EyecareSearch. Portions of the Services may also be embedded within third-party websites. EyecareSearch is not responsible or liable for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party websites or online services. Please consult any applicable terms of use and privacy policies provided by the third party for such websites or online services. User use of third-party websites is at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such sites. We do not endorse any product or service advertised on EyecareSearch.
Legal Liability and Releases
Releases
You agree not to hold EyecareSearch liable for the content, actions, or inactions of other users of the Services or of other third parties. As a condition of access to the Services, you release EyecareSearch (and its officers, directors, shareholders, agents, subsidiaries, and employees) from claims, demands, losses, liabilities and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with any dispute you have or claim to have with one or more other users of the Services or with other third parties, including whether or not EyecareSearch becomes involved in any resolution or attempted resolution of the dispute.
If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “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 a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.
Disclaimer of Other Express and Implied Warranties
EyecareSearch PROVIDES THE SERVICES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY SOFTWARE, WEBSITES, SERVERS, ONLINE SERVICES, YOUR ACCOUNT, AND CONTENT) STRICTLY ON AN “AS IS” BASIS, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WRITTEN OR ORAL, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF TITLE, NONINFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NO VALUE, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IS GUARANTEED OR WARRANTED WITH RESPECT TO ANY SERVICES OR CONTENT.

WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES (EITHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH THIRD-PARTY NETWORKS) AT TIMES OR LOCATIONS OF YOUR CHOOSING. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, TIMELINESS OR COMPLETENESS OF INFORMATION PROVIDED BY USERS OF THE SERVICES OR ANY OTHER DATA OR INFORMATION PROVIDED OR RECEIVED THROUGH THE SERVICES. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES ABOUT THE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, SOFTWARE AND FUNCTIONALITY MADE ACCESSIBLE THROUGH THE SERVICES OR ANY OTHER SECURITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE TRANSMISSION OF SENSITIVE INFORMATION. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL OPERATE ERROR-FREE, BUG-FREE OR FREE FROM DEFECTS, THAT LOSS OF DATA WILL NOT OCCUR, OR THAT THE SERVICES ARE FREE OF COMPUTER VIRUSES, CONTAMINANTS OR OTHER HARMFUL ITEMS.
EyecareSearch engages in commercially reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of the Services, but it cannot guarantee continuous, error-free, secure, and virus-free operation at all times, and you understand that you shall not be entitled to refunds or other compensation based on EyecareSearch’s failure to provide any of the foregoing other than as explicitly provided in this Agreement. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties, and to that extent, the foregoing disclaimer may not apply to you.
Limitation of Liability
YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY DISPUTE WITH US IS THE CANCELLATION OF YOUR REGISTRATION OR ACCOUNT. IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES, IF ANY, THAT YOU PAID FOR THE SERVICES IN THE PRECEDING SIX (6) MONTHS TO THE EVENT THAT GAVE RISE TO SUCH CLAIM.
IN NO EVENT SHALL EyecareSearch OR ANY OF ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, SHAREHOLDERS, SUBSIDIARIES, AGENTS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, RELIANCE, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OR DISGORGEMENT OR COMPARABLE EQUITABLE REMEDY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY DAMAGES FOR LOST DATA OR LOST PROFITS, ARISING (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES (INCLUDING ITS MODIFICATION OR TERMINATION), EyecareSearch SOFTWARE, WEBSITES, SERVERS, YOUR ACCOUNT (INCLUDING ITS TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION), OR THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER OR NOT EyecareSearch MAY HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT ANY SUCH DAMAGES MIGHT OR COULD OCCUR AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY. Some jurisdictions do not allow the foregoing limitations of liability, so to the extent that any such limitation is found to be impermissible, such limitation may not apply to you.
New Jersey Residents
Notwithstanding any term herein, if you are a resident of New Jersey this Agreement does not limit your rights or our obligations under any applicable statute or law to the contrary, including types and amounts of recovery; nor do they excuse us from any duty to avoid causing harm by means of gross negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct; nor do they disclaim our duty of care to our invitees; nor do they require you to defend and indemnify us in the event that any loss is caused by our negligence.

You will cooperate as fully required by Company in the defense of any claim. The Company Parties reserve the right to assume exclusive control of its defense in any matter subject to your indemnification, which shall not excuse your obligation to indemnify the Company Parties.

DMCA Policy
Generally
Bull Flag will respond to allegations of copyright violations in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”). Bull Flag’s designated Copyright Agent is registered with the United States Copyright Office under registration number DMCA-1078831. The DMCA provides a process for a copyright owner to give notification to an online service provider concerning alleged copyright infringement. When a valid DMCA notification is received, the service provider responds under this process by taking down the offending content. On taking down content under the DMCA, we will take reasonable steps to contact the owner of the removed content so that a counter-notification may be filed. On receiving a valid counter-notification, we generally restore the content in question, unless we receive notice from the notification provider that a legal action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in the infringing activity.
Filing a Notification
A written notification must be made. This can be sent by email, or by written letter (regular mail or courier). The notification must:
- Identify in sufficient detail the copyrighted work that you believe has been infringed upon (i.e., describe the work that you own).
- Identify the item that you claim is infringing on your copyright.
- Provide a reasonably sufficient method of contacting you; phone number and email address would be preferred.
- Include the following statement: "I have good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted materials described above and maintained by the Services is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or by protection of law."
- Include the following statement: "I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed."
- Be legibly signed.
Please note: The DMCA provides that you may be liable for damages (including costs and attorney’s fees) if you falsely claim that an item is infringing your copyrights. We recommend contacting an attorney if you are unsure whether an object is protected by copyright laws.
