The parties agree that the courts located in St. Clair County, Illinois, shall have exclusive personal jurisdiction, subject matter jurisdiction, and venue for any such claim. You expressly waive any claim of improper venue and any claim that such courts are an inconvenient forum.
Dispute Resolution
Please read the following section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with ChiroUp and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us, unless you opt out of arbitration by following the instructions set forth below. No class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed under this arbitration agreement. In addition, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a jury trial.
No Representative Actions. You and ChiroUp agree that any past, present, or future dispute arising out of or related to these Terms is personal to you and ChiroUp, and that any dispute will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding.
Arbitration of Disputes. Except for small claims disputes in which you or ChiroUp seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or ChiroUp seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and ChiroUp waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services resolved in court. Instead, for any past, present, or future dispute or claim that you have against ChiroUp or relating in any way to the Services, you agree to first contact ChiroUp and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim ("Notice") to ChiroUp by certified mail addressed to ChiroUp, 4460 N Illinois Street, Suite 8, Swansea, IL 62226 USA.
The Notice must (a) include your name, your residence address, your email address and your telephone number; (b) a description of the nature and basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and ChiroUp cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted to AAA will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration before one arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings will be held in St. Clair County, Illinois. You and ChiroUp agree that arbitrations will be held in accordance with the AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules and corresponding fee schedule, where applicable ("AAA Rules"), including without limitation, provisions regarding consolidation of claims. The most recent version of the AAA Rules are available on the AAA website and are hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the AAA Rules or waive your opportunity to read the AAA Rules and waive any claim that the AAA Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.
You and ChiroUp agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce, that the enforceability of this section will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the "FAA"), and that to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the FAA shall preempt the application of state laws regarding arbitration, including without limitation, provisions of the California Arbitration Act. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine whether a dispute may be arbitrated. The arbitrator may not preside over any type of class or representative proceeding. However, in the event that five or more claims in arbitration are initiated which assert the same or similar factual allegations, or raise the same or similar legal issues, we may request that the claims be consolidated for resolution consistent with Rule 6 of the Streamlined Rules, and you agree to consolidation of your claim with the claims of other claimants asserting the same or similar factual allegations, or whose claims raise the same or similar legal issues. In such a consolidated proceeding, a single arbitrator shall be appointed to resolve all consolidated claims, who shall resolve common issues of law and fact and apply such rulings consistently to the consolidated claims.
The arbitration will allow for the discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the dispute. The arbitrator, ChiroUp, and you will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.
You and ChiroUp agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you and ChiroUp will split the fees unless otherwise required by applicable law or rules. For any arbitration initiated by ChiroUp, ChiroUp will pay all AAA fees and costs. You and ChiroUp agree that the state or federal courts of the State of Illinois and the United States sitting in St. Clair County, Illinois have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.
Any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or the use of our Services must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and ChiroUp will not have the right to assert the claim.
You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted the terms of this section by emailing ChiroUp at support@ChiroUp.com.
In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with this section.
If any portion of this section is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this section or the parties' ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this section; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this section is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this section will be enforceable. If you are a consumer, the provisions of this section will be modified to the extent necessary to conform to the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules or equivalent AAA standards.

Addendum AI-assisted clinical documentation
AI-Assisted Charting Some optional features of the Services allow for the recording of patient-provider conversations, the use of third-party voice recognition software, and the subsequent generation of AI-created summaries. By utilizing these features, you acknowledge and agree to comply with all terms outlined in this Agreement, including requirements for patient consent and data security.
HIPAA & Data Privacy Where required by law, any third-party AI service provider used for transcription or summarization will operate under a valid Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with ChiroUp. Nevertheless, all data transmissions to these AI providers will generally be encrypted, and no protected health information (PHI) will be stored for AI model training, except as expressly permitted by HIPAA or other applicable laws.
Patient Consent You are solely responsible for obtaining and documenting patient consent, including patient authorizations to the extent required under HIPAA, before recording any patient interactions for AI transcription or summary purposes. By clicking to record or otherwise initiating an AI service, you represent and warrant that the patient has been informed, verbally or in writing as required, and has agreed to the recording and AI-based processing of their information. You are solely responsible for determining whether a patient authorization is required for the intended use of the Services under HIPAA.
Provider Responsibilities & AI-Generated Content & Recommendations Subscribers acknowledge that AI-generated content can contain inaccuracies or omissions. You agree that any text generated through our AI features, including transcriptions, recommendations, assessments, or clinical summaries, must be reviewed by a licensed healthcare provider prior to finalizing the medical record. By using these AI-assisted features, you agree to verify and edit any AI-generated information before relying on it for clinical decision-making, billing, coding, or other business decisions. You further understand that ChiroUp makes no guarantee of the clinical, legal, or regulatory accuracy of any AI-generated transcript or summary, and disclaims any and all liability for damages arising from errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in AI-generated content. BY USING THESE FEATURES, YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD CHIROUP, ITS EMPLOYEES, AND ITS AGENTS HARMLESS FROM ANY CLAIMS, DAMAGES, OR LIABILITY RESULTING FROM YOUR RELIANCE ON, OR FAILURE TO VERIFY, SUCH AI OUTPUT.
Clinical & Billing Decisions You acknowledge and agree that final responsibility for all clinical decisions, patient diagnoses, treatments, billing codes, and care recommendations remains solely with you, the Subscriber. Neither ChiroUp nor any AI service provider will be liable for any misdiagnosis, malpractice claim, improper charting, or billing dispute arising from AI-transcribed or summarized content.
Third-Party AI Vendors The AI-based transcription and summarization features may be provided through one or more third-party vendors under business associate arrangements. ChiroUp does not control, guarantee, or assume responsibility for the availability, reliability, or performance of any third-party AI vendor. You further acknowledge and agree that your use of these tools is subject to the vendor’s own terms and policies.
Prohibited Use of PHI for AI Training To the extent feasible and unless expressly permitted under HIPAA de-identification standards, ChiroUp instructs its AI vendors to process recorded data in a purely transient manner. No personally identifiable information will be used for ongoing AI model training without sufficient authorization to the extent required by applicable law.
Indemnification In addition to the indemnification obligations set forth elsewhere in these Terms, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ChiroUp for any claim arising from your (or your agent’s): i) unauthorized recording of patient information; ii) improper disclosure of PHI to the AI system; iii) failure to secure patient consent for AI-based services; or iv) improper use of the AI systems.
