This Terms of Use and User Agreement is entered into by and between you (“you” or “your”) and Antara Health Limited (“Company”, “Antara”, “we” or “us”). The following terms and conditions, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively, these “Terms of Use”), govern your access to and use of Antara’s services via Antara’s mobile application (“Mobile App”), website (antarahealth.com), and telephone call, Whatsapp or SMS chat (“Other Channels”).

‍

Antara’s services include the following: (a) Clinical services via virtual consultations, where you can talk with one of our medical professionals. These include doctors, nurses, nutritionists, physiotherapists, and mental health professionals (“Practitioners”). Practitioners might give you a diagnosis, recommendation, or treatment. They may also prescribe medication to you, or refer you to a third party;(b) Health Navigation services that give you health and lifestyle information through our trained and licensed health navigators; and(c) Such other services as may be introduced by Antara Health from time to time.

‍

Antara Health’s Services and the Mobile App and Other Channels used to access services are collectively referred to as the “Services”. Please refer to your sponsor’s (i.e. the entity or organization paying for your participation in our Services) service agreement for information on the specific services you are enrolled for.

‍
Please read these Terms of Use carefully before you start to use the Services. By using the Services or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Use when this option is made available to you, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Use.

‍
Antara hereby grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferrable, revocable, limited license to access and make use of the Services to manage your health information and communicate with us in accordance with these Terms of Use.

‍
This license expressly excludes, without limitation, any reproduction, duplication, sale, resale, or other commercial use of the Services, making any derivative of the Services, and any data extraction or data mining whatsoever. This license may not be shared with, transferred to or sublicensed to any other party. We may terminate this license and your rights to use the Services for any reason at any time.

‍We may revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them on our Services and apply to all access to and use of the Services thereafter.

‍

‍The Practitioners who are authorised and certified by the requisite authorities may prescribe medicines. We may refuse to prescribe medication or order further laboratory tests for you if we think it is not safe or legal to prescribe.

‍

‍‍There are some medical conditions for which we will not be able to help you through a virtual consultation, and would therefore need to refer you to a third-party medical services provider. Antara will always prioritize referring you to third-party providers that are covered by your health insurance, however some third-party medical service may not be covered by your insurance.
