+ Our Services

The Pip app is designed to be a self-help program. Neither Bonifier nor its representatives are engaged in rendering medical services or other such advice. The Services do not include the provision of medical care, mental health services or other professional services.

Use of the Services is not for emergencies. If you think you have a medical or mental health emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest open clinic or emergency room.

If you are considering or committing suicide or feel that you are a danger to yourself or others, you must discontinue use of the Services immediately, call 911 or notify appropriate police or emergency medical personnel.

+ What About My Privacy?

Bonifier takes the privacy of its users very seriously. For the current Bonifier Privacy Policy, please click http://bonifier.life/privacy.

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) requires that online service providers obtain parental consent before they knowingly collect personally identifiable information online from children who are under 13. For your child(ren) to interact with Pip, or access any Services, you are required to provide your consent.

If you are a minor, you must have your parent or guardian read and agree to these Terms of Use prior to you using any Services.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT ACCESS ANY BONIFIER SERVICES.

+ Using Pip

Pip is currently available as a web app; for your child(ren) to utilize the Services you will need to sign up for an account. This requires you to enter your first name, your email address, the first name and age for your child(ren) who will participate, and create a password. You agree to provide us with accurate, complete, and updated registration information about yourself and any child(ren) you register. You may not enter an email address that you don’t have the right to use, or another person’s email with the intent to impersonate that person. You may not transfer your account to anyone else without our prior written permission.

You represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract (or if not, you’ve received your parent’s or guardian’s permission to use the Services and they have agreed to these Terms on your behalf). If you’re agreeing to these Terms on behalf of a minor, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to these Terms on their behalf and bind them to these Terms (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” in these Terms, except for in this sentence, refer to them).

You will only use the Services for your own internal, personal, non-commercial use, and not on behalf of or for the benefit of any third party, and only in a manner that complies with all laws that apply to you. If applicable laws prohibit your use of the Services, then you aren’t authorized to use the Services. We can’t and won’t be responsible for your using the Services in a way that breaks the law.

You will not share your account or password with anyone, and you must protect the security of your account and your password. You’re responsible for any activity associated with your account.

Your use of the Services means that you represent, warrant, and agree that you will not contribute any Content or User Submission (each of those terms is defined below) or otherwise use the Services or interact with the Services in a manner that:

• Infringes or violates the intellectual property rights or any other rights of anyone else (including Bonifier);
• Violates any law or regulation;
• Is harmful, fraudulent, deceptive, threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable;
• Jeopardizes the security of your Bonifier account or anyone else’s (such as allowing someone else to log on as you on the Services);
• Attempts, in any manner, to obtain the password, account, or other security information from any other user;
• Violates the security of any computer network, or cracks any passwords or security encryption codes;
• Runs Maillist, Listserv, any form of auto-responder or “spam” on the Services, or any processes that run or are activated while you are not logged into the Services, or that otherwise interfere with the proper working of the Services (including by placing an unreasonable load on the Services’ infrastructure);
• “Crawls,” “scrapes,” or “spiders” any page, data or portion of or relating to the Services or Content (through use of manual or automated means);
• Copies or stores any significant portion of the Content and/or share, post or distribute any considerable part of the Content elsewhere;
• Decompiles, reverse engineers or otherwise attempt to obtain the source code or underlying ideas or information of or relating to the Services.
• Evidences mental health services needs that exceed those provided in the Services. If your needs are beyond the scope of guided self-help you are advised to seek professional help which can be found through the services of a mental health professional, medical professional, or a support organization.

A violation of any of the previous is grounds for termination of your right to use or access the Services.

+ We Do Not Provide Medical Advice

While the Services may provide access to certain general medical information, the Services cannot and are not intended to provide medical advice. We advise you to always seek the help of a physician or other qualified healthcare provider with any questions regarding your health or medical conditions. Never disregard, avoid, or delay in obtaining medical advice from a doctor or other qualified healthcare providers because of something you have read on the Services. If you, or your child, have or suspect that you, or your child, have a medical problem or condition, please contact a qualified health care professional immediately. You acknowledge that, although individuals in the medical profession may provide some of the Content that is provided to you on the Services, including information provided in direct response to your questions or postings), the provision of such information does not create a medical professional-patient relationship, and does not constitute an opinion, medical advice, or diagnosis or treatment of any particular condition, but is provided to assist you in completing your self-help program.

No licensed medical professional-patient relationship is created by using information and/or services provided by or through the use of the Services or through any other communications from us. The content of the Services is not and should not be considered medical advice or a substitute for individual medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Do not disregard, avoid or delay obtaining medical advice from a qualified health care professional because of something you may have read on the site. You should always talk to your medical professionals for diagnosis and treatment. Do not use the Services for emergency medical needs. If you experience a medical emergency, call 911. Your use of information provided on the Services is solely at your own risk. Nothing stated, posted or available on the Services is intended to be, and must not be taken to be, the practice of medicine or the provision of medical care.

+ Changes to Services

We are continually trying to improve the Services and they will change over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services.

We will try to give you notice when we make a material change to the Services that would adversely affect you, but this isn’t always practical. Similarly, we reserve the right to remove any Content from the Services at any time, for any reason, in our sole discretion, and without notice.

+ Changes to Terms

These Terms may need to change along with the Services as they evolve and improve. We reserve the right to change the Terms at any time, but if we do, we will bring it to your attention by placing a notice on this webpage, and/or by sending you an email and/or by some other means.

If you do not agree with the new Terms, you are free to reject them; however, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the Terms is effective, that means you agree to all of the changes.

Except for changes by us as described here, no other amendment or modification of these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both you and us.

+ Does Pip Cost Anything?

The limited public version of Pip is currently being provided to families on a pay-what-you-can basis. However, future versions of the app may require upgrading from basic features to premium features, which may require a subscription fee to access Bonifier’s Services.
