ARTICLE 6. RESPONSIBILITY

6.1. General principles
6.1.1.
The USER is solely responsible for his or her use of the PATIENT RECORDS and more generally for any content published on the PLATFORM. Except in the case of gross negligence or where otherwise provided for by law, LEOMED cannot be held liable for any damage caused by the use of all or part of the PATIENT RECORDS or content published on the PLATFORM.

6.1.2.
The same applies to the PATIENT RECORDS accessible via the CLIENTS' PROFILES. Contact with any third-party site, particularly those accessible by hypertext link, or managed by CLIENTS, which USERS may access via the PLATFORM is carried out at the USERS' own risk and shall in no way be considered to be under the responsibility of LEOMED.

6.1.3.
In any event, the source of the PATIENT RECORDS and other content published on the PLATFORM is given to the USER by LEOMED, which cannot be held responsible for content that it did not create.

6.1.4.
Subject to the mandatory provisions of the Law, LEOMED also declines any form of liability in the event of:
a) abnormal use or illicit exploitation of the PLATFORM;
b) use of the PLATFORM that does not comply with and is not provided for in these GTC;
c) temporary inability to access the PLATFORM due to technical maintenance operations or interruptions linked to the nature of the Internet network that are independent of LEOMED;
d) viral attacks;
e) incomplete, out-of-date or erroneous PATIENT RECORDS circulated by a CLIENT;
f) failure of a CLIENT in its relations with one or more PATIENTS;
g) unsuitability of the SERVICES for the computer hardware and software used by the USER, whose compatibility it is the USER's sole responsibility to assess;

6.1.5.
It is expressly agreed between the PARTIES that LEOMED is subject to a general obligation of means and that it is not bound by any obligation of result or reinforced means of any kind.

6.1.6.
Generally speaking, LEOMED cannot guarantee that the use of the SERVICES will generate an increase in turnover or provide an observable or unobservable gain in efficiency and/or optimisation of the CLIENTS' resources.

6.1.7.
The USER may hold LEOMED liable if he/she has previously notified LEOMED by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt of the alleged breach and LEOMED has not responded within thirty (30) days of receiving this notice. In any event, it is recalled that LEOMED may only be held liable in the event of gross negligence, in accordance with the applicable laws.

6.1.8.
Furthermore, due to the very nature of the Internet network (interconnection of a multitude of independent parties), no one can guarantee the overall functioning of the networks from end to end. LEOMED can therefore in no way be held responsible for any damage that it did not cause directly.

6.1.9.
Under no circumstances shall LEOMED be held liable, regardless of the type of action brought, for any indirect damage of any kind, for example, and without this list being exhaustive, any financial or commercial damage, loss of profit, commercial disturbance, loss of earnings, physical injury suffered by a PATIENT or a third party, or action brought by a PATIENT or a third party against the USER, as well as the consequences of these, linked to the present document or to its execution. The USER is solely responsible for any direct or indirect, material or immaterial damage caused by him or one of his employees to LEOMED or to third parties as a result of his use of the PLATFORM and the associated SERVICES.

6.1.10.
It is expressly agreed between the PARTIES that the provisions of this clause shall continue to apply even in the event of termination of the present agreement by a final court decision.

6.2.Origin of PATIENT RECORDS
6.2.1.
USERS acknowledge that LEOMED does not guarantee the validity, completeness or timeliness of the PATIENT RECORDS or other content posted by CLIENTS on the PLATFORM.

Only CLIENTS are responsible for the PATIENT RECORDS, content and services they offer directly to PATIENTS via the PLATFORM and its SERVICES.

ARTICLE 7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

7.1.
The USER acknowledges that the PLATFORM and all its components are the exclusive property of LEOMED.

7.2.
With the exception of the data published by the CLIENTS, it is recalled that the brands, logos, slogans, graphics, photographs, animations, videos, software, databases and texts created, published or registered by LEOMED are the exclusive property of LEOMED and may not therefore be reproduced, used or represented without prior express authorisation, on pain of legal proceedings.

In this respect, the USER undertakes to :
a) not to use the names reasonably attributable to LEOMED in its public, advertising or promotional campaigns without the prior written consent of LEOMED;

Any representation, in whole or in part, of the PLATFORM or its components, by any means whatsoever, without the prior express authorisation of LEOMED or, as the case may be, of the CLIENTS and PATIENTS in the case of the PATIENT RECORDS disseminated by them, is prohibited and shall constitute an infringement within the meaning of the Copyright Act, R.S.C. (1985), c. C-42.

7.5.
In addition, LEOMED expressly prohibits:
a) The extraction, unless specifically agreed in writing, by permanent or temporary transfer of all or a qualitatively or quantitatively substantial part of the content of the PLATFORM, by any means and in any form whatsoever;

8.2. Concerning the processing carried out by LEOMED:

8.2.2.

8.2.3.
In this respect, the USER is invited to consult the Privacy Policy accessible at https://leomed.co/privacy-policy, which will provide further information on the protection of personal data and the processing carried out via the PLATFORM.

8.2.4.
It is recalled that the USER whose personal data is processed has the right to access, rectify and object to the processing of his or her personal data, in accordance with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act("PIPEDA") and Quebec's Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector("AIPPS"). These rights may be exercised, in accordance with the law, by simple request by e-mail to [email protected], by paper mail to the address of LEOMED's head office, providing proof of identity and a legitimate reason, when required by law.

8.3. Concerning processing carried out by the CLIENT
8.3.1.
In the event of processing of personal data carried out by the CLIENT from its PROFILE, LEOMED will act as a mere technical intermediary.

8.3.2.
It is therefore expressly agreed between the parties that LEOMED:
a) will not carry out any data processing operation unless instructed to do so by the CLIENT and always under the CLIENT's full and exclusive responsibility;
b) will put in place reasonable means in accordance with industry standards at its disposal to ensure the security and confidentiality of the personal data entrusted to it.

9.1.
LEOMED shall not be held responsible, or considered to have failed to comply with these GCU, for any delay or non-performance, when the cause of the delay or non-performance is linked to a case of force majeure as defined by the jurisprudence of the courts and tribunals of Quebec, including in particular in the event of an attack by computer hackers, the unavailability of materials, supplies, spare parts, personal equipment or other; interruption, suspension, reduction or disruption of electricity or other or any interruption of electronic communications networks.

ARTICLE 10. GENERAL PROVISIONS

LEOMED reserves the right to update and modify these GTCs at any time, it being specified that the GTCs in force are those published on the PLATFORM at the time of access to the PLATFORM and browsing by the USER.

10.2.
No indication or document may give rise to any obligation not specified in these GTUs, unless they are the subject of a new agreement between the Parties.

10.3.
The Parties further declare that these GTUs may in no way be considered as an act constituting a legal person or entity of any kind, and that any form ofaffectio societatis is formally excluded from their relationship.

10.4.
The fact that one of the Parties has not demanded the application of any clause of these GCU, whether permanently or temporarily, shall in no case be considered as a waiver of said clause.

10.5.
In the event of difficulty of interpretation between one of the titles appearing at the head of the clauses and one of these clauses, the titles will be declared non-existent.

10.6.
If one of the stipulations of the present GTUs were to be declared null and void with regard to a legislative or regulatory provision in force and/or a court decision having the authority of res judicata, it will be deemed unwritten, but will in no way affect the validity of the other clauses, which will remain in full force and effect.
