INTRODUCTION

Enact Academy, LLC (collectively, “we,” “us,” or “Enact Academy”) provides you with access to online courses and services (“Services,” defined below) subject to the terms and conditions described in this document (this “Terms of Service”) and any other guidelines, rules or licenses posted in connection with any Online Courses (defined below). These Terms of Service also include our Privacy Policy, incorporated by this reference.

AGREEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

By creating an account or by indicating your agreement to these Terms of Service through a similar mechanism, you are agreeing to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, do not use the Services. The Services are not intended for, nor directed at, individuals under the age of 18. If you are under 18 years of age, do not use the Services.

SERVICES

Enact Academy provides many services (each a “Service” and together, the “Services”) through its website(s) located at enactacademy.org, healthlearn.org, as well as any other websites and applications owned, operated, or controlled by us (each a “Website” and collectively the “Websites”), including, without limitation, services, content, and materials made available through any website, social media channels, or other online or onsite channels that enable you to participate in any Enact Academy online educational programs (collectively, the “Online Courses”) and related services.

Enact Academy reserves the right to alter, modify, or rearrange the schedule of topics for the Online Courses, as well as the grading of assessments, assignments, and other measures of progress. By attending the Online Courses, Students acknowledge that Enact Academy maintains the right and ability to adapt, modify, or revise the Online Courses as Enact Academy deems appropriate.

Enact Academy reserves the right, at any time, to alter, or to discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Services or any part of the Services, with or without notice to you. You agree that Enact Academy shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any alterations, suspensions, or discontinuance of the Services, or any portion thereof. Nothing in these Terms of Service shall be construed to obligate Enact Academy to maintain and support the Services.

ACCESS TO SERVICES

There are different ways in which you may access or use the Services. In all instances, you are only authorized to use the Services if you agree to abide by all applicable laws, rules, regulations, as well as these Terms of Service. You may access the Services as:

The term “User” refers to a Visitor, Student, or any other person that participates, interacts with, or otherwise makes use of any of the Services.

In order to use, access, or take part in many of our Services, including the Online Courses, you may select or be assigned a login identification (“User ID”) and you may select a unique user password (“Password”) (collectively, an “Account”). You agree that you will never share the Password to your Account with any other person or third party for any reason. Moreover, you agree that you will never allow another person to access your account or take Enact Academy courses on your behalf.

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

You acknowledge and agree that your use of any of the Services and all content is at your sole risk and responsibility. The Services and Online Courses (including any content) are provided “as is” and “as available” with no representations or warranties of any kind, either expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. You assume total responsibility and the entire risk for your use of the Services, Online Courses, and content. Without limiting the foregoing, we do not warrant that:

  • The Services, Websites, content, or the Online Courses will meet your requirements or expectations or achieve the intended purposes;
  • The Websites or the Online Courses will not experience outages or otherwise be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free;
  • The information or content obtained through the Services will be accurate, complete, current, error-free, completely secure, or reliable; or
  • That perceived or real defects in the Services or content will be corrected.

You assume all risk of personal injury, including death and damage to personal property, sustained from your use of Services.

To the extent permitted under applicable law, Enact Academy assumes no responsibility for any injury and/or damage to persons or property as a matter of products liability, malpractice, failure to warn, negligence or otherwise, or from any use or operation of any ideas, instructions, methods, tests, products or procedures displayed on the Services or incorporated in the Online Courses. Practitioners must rely on their own experience, knowledge and judgment in evaluating or applying any information, which remains their professional responsibility. Because of rapid advances in the medical sciences and changes in government guidelines and regulations, we recommend independent verification of diagnoses, treatments, indications, and choices of medications and medication doses. Discussions, views, and recommendations expressed may not be considered absolute and universal for every situation. Enact Academy is not liable for any medical treatment provided by users to their patients, whether or not the Services or Online Courses were used in connection with such treatment.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Under no circumstances shall Enact Academy be liable to the User or any third party with respect to any subject matter of these Terms of Service (including any breach of security or data loss or User’s reliance on or use of anything learned in any online course in any manner) under any contract, negligence, strict liability or other theory for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages or lost profits, loss or inaccuracy of data or documents or cost of procurement of substitute goods, services or technology, even if advised of the possibility of such damages or whether any remedy set forth herein fails of its essential purpose or otherwise. Enact Academy’s total cumulative liability arising out of or related to these Terms of Service will not exceed the amount of the fees received by Enact Academy from the complaining User for the use of the Services. The existence of multiple claims shall not expand or increase the foregoing limitation.

The parties acknowledge that this clause reflects the agreed-upon allocation of risk between the parties and that Enact Academy would not enter into these Terms of Service or make the Services available to User without these limitations on liability. This limitation of liability will apply notwithstanding the failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy set forth herein.

Some of the above limitations may not apply to you as not all jurisdictions allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages.

LINKING TO THIRD-PARTY SITES AND CONTENT

The Websites and/or Online Courses may contain links to pages or content on third-party websites (“Linked Sites”), and those Linked Sites may contain content or offer products and/or services for sale.
