Welcome to ScribeMD.ai. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of our HIPAA-compliant note-taking tool. By accessing or using our services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our services. ScribeMD.ai, provided by EE Dojo, a California based C Corp, applies these Terms to all users of the service.
By clicking a box indicating your acceptance, you agree to these Terms. If you are an agent or employee of an entity, you represent and warrant that (i) the individual accepting this Agreement is authorized to accept this Agreement on such entity’s behalf and to bind such entity, and (ii) such entity has full power, corporate or otherwise, to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder.
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes are effective immediately upon posting. Your continued use of our services after any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically for any updates.
Subject to your acceptance of this Agreement and your payment of all fees due and owing to ScribeMD.ai, during the Subscription Term (as defined in Section 5.1), we will provide you with access to our note-taking tool and application program interface (API) facilitating AI-based medical scribing in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, ScribeMD.ai hereby grants you a limited, royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable (except for permitted assignments as hereinafter described) right to access and use the Service solely for your internal business purposes during the Subscription Term. All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by ScribeMD.ai and its licensors. There are no implied rights.

You acknowledge that ScribeMD.ai is relying on you to ensure all these requirements are met.

You shall notify ScribeMD.ai immediately of any actual or suspected unauthorized use of its passwords or API keys for the Service.
Customers with paid subscriptions will provide ScribeMD.ai (or its third-party payment service provider) with a valid credit card for payment of the applicable subscription fees, or (if applicable) will duly pay invoices issued to such customers on the payment and other terms set forth in such invoices. In addition to any fees, you may still incur charges incidental to using the Service, for example, charges for Internet access, data roaming, and other data transmission charges. No refunds or credits will be issued for partial periods of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for periods unused with an active subscription, including, but not limited to, instances involving the removal of a customer.
ScribeMD.ai reserves the right to increase its fees upon at least 30 days’ advance notice (email or otherwise) to you; provided, however, that fee increases will not take effect until the start of the next Subscription Term.
All amounts due hereunder are exclusive of all sales, use, excise, service, value added, or other taxes, duties, and charges of any kind (whether foreign, federal, state, local, or other) associated with this Agreement, the Service, or your access to the Service. You shall be solely responsible for all such taxes, duties, and charges (except for taxes imposed on ScribeMD.ai’s income), which may be invoiced by ScribeMD.ai from time to time. In the event of updated tax rates, ScribeMD.ai will apply the new tax rate without notice to you .
Any and all payments by or on account of the compensation payable under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any taxes. If you are required to deduct or withhold any taxes from such payments, then the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that, after making all required deductions or withholdings, ScribeMD.ai receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
While we strive to maintain the security and privacy of your data, no system can be completely secure. ScribeMD.ai shall not be liable for any damages resulting from any unauthorized access to or use of our services.
We do not guarantee that our services will be available at all times. We may experience interruptions due to maintenance, updates, or other reasons beyond our control.
In no event shall ScribeMD.ai be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of our services.
To the fullest extent permissible by law, ScribeMD.ai’s total liability for all damages arising out of or related to the Service or this Agreement, whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, shall not exceed the total amount of fees paid by you to ScribeMD.ai during the then-current Subscription Term.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes are effective immediately upon posting. Your continued use of our services after any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically for any updates.
