11. Social Media.
    • Our Posts on Social Media. Links to TherapyWorks’ social media pages (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn) are included on the Site (“Social Media Pages”). Because anyone may post or tag on Social Media Pages, posts do not necessarily reflect TherapyWorks’ views.  If we follow, like, re-tweet, favorite, share, or re-post an individual’s content on our Social Media Pages, it is not an endorsement of that person or party or any product, service, or company they represent.
    • Your Posts on Social Media. We may or may not review content you and other third parties post on our Social Media Pages.  We may remove anything that we deem offensive, inappropriate or inconsistent with the vision of TherapyWorks posted on our Social Media Pages.  We may work with third-party service providers of the Social Media Pages to block users who are being offensive, abusive, disruptive or otherwise violating these Terms or applicable laws.  We will treat all information posted to our Social Media pages as non-confidential.
12. Therapist Opportunities. You can apply to be a TherapyWorks therapist through a link on our Site.  You warrant that all information contained in a therapist application you provide is current, accurate, and complete.  Do not provide any resume or other application materials for any person other than yourself.  Your submission of a therapist application does not in any way require TherapyWorks to review that application or consider you for a position.  Therapist opportunities on the Site are subject to change at any time, at our sole discretion and without notice.
13. NO WARRANTY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THERAPYWORKS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND WITH RESPECT TO THE SITE AND CONTENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE IN TRADE.

THE SITE AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” “AS AVAILABLE,” AND WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.  THERAPYWORKS MAKES COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE EFFORTS TO ENSURE THAT ALL CONTENT ON THE SITE IS ACCURATE AND RELIABLE, BUT NEITHER ACCURACY NOR RELIABILITY ARE GUARANTEED.  THERAPYWORKS DOES NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTEE THE QUALITY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, OR AVAILABILITY OF THE SITE OR CONTENT.  THERAPYWORKS DOES NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTEE THAT THE SITE OR CONTENT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT ANY DEFECTS IN THE SITE OR CONTENT WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE SITE OR THE SERVERS THAT MAKE THE SITE AVAILABLE ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL CONDITIONS OR COMPONENTS.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT WARRANT OR ENDORSE ANY THIRD-PARTY CONTENT.

14. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THERAPYWORKS  OR ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR LICENSORS (TOGETHER, “THERAPYWORKS PARTY(IES)”) BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SITE OR CONTENT, OR YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE SITE OR CONTENT, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, AND EVEN IF A THERAPYWORKS PARTY HAS EXPRESS KNOWLEDGE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE.

YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO STOP ACCESSING AND USING THE SITE OR CONTENT.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

15. INDEMNIFICATION. YOU WILL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS THE THERAPYWORKS PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ALL LOSSES, CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, DEMANDS, COMPLAINTS, ACTIONS, DAMAGES, JUDGMENTS, SETTLEMENTS, FINES, PENALTIES, EXPENSES, AND COSTS (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) THAT ARISE OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH
    • YOUR VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAWS,
    • YOUR MISUSE OF THE SITE OR ANY CONTENT, AND
    • YOUR BREACH OF THESE TERMS, THE PRIVACY POLICY OR ANY OTHER TERMS OR POLICIES ON THE SITE.

WE RESERVE, AND YOU GRANT TO US, THE RIGHT TO ASSUME THE DEFENSE AND CONTROL OF ANY MATTER SUBJECT TO INDEMNIFICATION BY YOU.  IF A THERAPYWORKS PARTY DEMANDS INDEMNITY UNDER THIS SECTION, SUCH THERAPYWORKS PARTY HAS THE RIGHT TO SELECT LEGAL COUNSEL OF ITS OWN CHOOSING TO REPRESENT THERAPYWORKS, AND YOU AGREE TO PAY THE REASONABLE COSTS AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES INCURRED BY SUCH LEGAL COUNSEL.

16. Third-Party Websites and Content. The Site may link to, or be linked to, websites not maintained or controlled by TherapyWorks.  The Site also contains certain third-party Content.  We provide third-party links and Content for your convenience, not as an endorsement.  Presence of third-party links or Content does not mean there is any association between TherapyWorks and any third party.  

When leaving the Site, it is the terms and privacy policy of that third party that govern your use of third-party website (and such third-party’s use or your Personal Information), not these Terms. You access third-party Content and websites at your sole risk.  TherapyWorks has no responsibility for any third-party Content. 

17. Linking to the Site. You may not link to the TherapyWorks Site on your website or elsewhere without TherapyWorks’ prior written consent.  If TherapyWorks grants its consent, additional terms may apply. 
18. If you submit comments or feedback to us regarding the Site or Content, they will not be treated as confidential. We may use any comments and feedback that you send us in our discretion and without attribution or compensation to you.
19. Governing Law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the state of Illinois, U.S.A. without regard to conflict of laws principles.  You agree to venue exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Cook County, Illinois, with respect to any dispute arising under these Terms and you expressly agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts. 
20. If you violate applicable laws or these Terms, you are immediately prohibited from further use of the Site or Content, and we may restrict your access to the Site or Content.
    • Discontinuation. TherapyWorks may suspend or terminate the Site or any Content, in whole or in part, at any time in its sole discretion for any reason.  In addition, TherapyWorks may suspend or terminate your Account, in whole or in part, temporarily or permanently as further described in [insert any applicable account terms]. 
    • No Liability for Suspension or Termination. TherapyWorks shall not be liable to you or anyone else for any damages arising from or related to TherapyWorks’ suspension or termination of your access to the Site, Content, or Account or in the event TherapyWorks modifies, discontinues or restricts the availability of the Site, Content, or Account (in whole or in part). 
21. Cooperation with Law Enforcement. TherapyWorks will cooperate with law enforcement if you are suspected of having violated applicable laws.  YOU WAIVE AND HOLD THERAPYWORKS AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES HARMLESS FOR ANY COOPERATION WITH, OR DISCLOSURE OF YOUR INFORMATION TO, LAW ENFORCEMENT RELATING TO YOUR SUSPECTED VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAWS.
22. We may assign our rights and delegate our duties under these Terms at any time to any party without notice to you. You may not assign your rights or delegate your duties under these Terms without our prior written consent.
23. Entire Agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and TherapyWorks with respect to your access to and use of the Site.
24. TherapyWorks’ failure to enforce any provision in these Terms will not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision.  Any waiver will be effective only if in writing and signed by TherapyWorks.
25. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, void, or unenforceable, that provision will be severed from the remaining provisions and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
26. Electronic Communications. These Terms and any other agreements, notices, or communications between you and TherapyWorks may be provided to you electronically if permitted by law.  TherapyWorks may provide notices to you by using any contact information provided by you or through your Account, or by posting such notices to the Site.  Please print or otherwise save a copy of all documentation, agreements, notices, and other communications for your reference.
