These Terms do not alter in any way the terms or conditions of any other agreement that you have entered into with us that may apply to your use of the MedChart Service. These Terms include any supplementary terms provided separately to you for the MedChart Service, including but not limited to the vendor app program supplementary term and revenue share supplementary term (each a “Supplementary Term”). These Terms are effective on the earlier of: (a) the date Vendor first uses any part of the MedChart Service; and (b) the date Vendor agrees to be bound by these Terms (the “Effective Date”).
These Terms form an agreement between MedChart Inc. and its affiliates (referred to as “MedChart”, “we”, “our” or “us”) and you. The term “you”, “your” or “Vendor” refers to the person or entity browsing, installing, downloading, accessing or otherwise using the MedChart Service (“use” or “using” in these Terms will mean any of the foregoing).

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS YOU MUST NOT ACCESS OR USE THE MEDCHART SERVICE. IF YOU ARE USING THE MEDCHART SERVICE ON BEHALF OF ANOTHER PERSON OR ENTITY, YOU HEREBY REPRESENT AND WARRANT TO MEDCHART THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH PERSON OR ENTITY TO THESE TERMS. IF YOU ARE PROVIDING APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT SERVICES OR ARE OTHERWISE ACTING AS A CONNECTOR TO A THIRD PARTY THAT WILL RECEIVE OR OTHERWISE BENEFIT FROM USER DATA (THE “ULTIMATE RECIPIENT”) OBTAINED THROUGH THE MEDCHART PLATFORM (I.E., YOU ARE A “CONNECTOR”), YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE ACTING AS AN AGENT OF THE ULTIMATE RECIPIENT AND YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND THE ULTIMATE RECIPIENT TO THESE TERMS. IN THAT CASE, “VENDOR” OR “YOU” INCLUDES THE ULTIMATE RECIPIENT AS WELL.

In our discretion and without liability to you, we may add, remove or modify any features of the MedChart Platform; impose additional eligibility requirements or restrictions for access to the MedChart Platform; or discontinue the MedChart Platform. If we modify the MedChart Platform, we may require you to use the modified version, which may not be compatible with Vendor Applications developed using previous versions. We typically make these changes as part of our overall MedChart Platform program and may not be able to provide you with individual notice of the changes.
5. Branding and Publicity
(a) “Marks” means trademarks, service marks, brand names, trade names, corporate names, business styles, trade dress, logos, insignia and other commercial symbols. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each party herby grants to the other party a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable license during the Term to use and display its Marks solely in connection with the marketing, advertising, and promotion of the Vendor Application or the MedChart Platform. Each use by either party of the other party’s Marks must be approved in writing by the owner of such Marks prior to distribution, release or publication. Unless otherwise approved in writing by the party that owns the Marks, each party will comply with the branding and trademark guidelines that the other party provides in writing. Any goodwill arising from the use of a party’s Marks will inure to the benefit of such party. Vendor shall take all commercially reasonable steps to preserve and protect the goodwill and reputation of MedChart.
(b) You may promote Vendor Application, including talking to traditional and online media and your users about Vendor Application, but you may not issue any formal press release via traditional or online media referring to MedChart without MedChart’s prior written consent. You must conduct all such activities truthfully and without implying that Vendor Application is created, sponsored, or endorsed by MedChart (or otherwise embellishing your relationship with MedChart) and you may not make any legal representations, guarantees or warranties on behalf of MedChart or with respect to the MedChart Platform or the MedChart Service. If you become aware that any public facing articles are being developed by independent publications or authors connecting Vendor Application to MedChart, then you agree to immediately inform MedChart at legalnotices@medchart.ca.
(c) MedChart may publicly refer to you, orally or in writing, as a user or third party vendor of the MedChart Platform. We may also publish Vendor’s Marks (with or without a link to Vendor Application) on our websites, in press releases, and in promotional materials without Vendor’s prior consent.
6. Vendor Responsibilities
(a) Prior to Vendor accessing any information (including Personal Information) relating to a User, including business, financial and product information (“User Data”), the Vendor will have in place and will present the User for execution, an agreement entered into between a User and Vendor governing the User’s use of the Vendor’s services, including, if applicable, the installation and use of a Vendor Application (“Vendor Terms”) that contains provisions at least as protective of MedChart as those in these Terms. Vendor must inform Users in the Vendor Terms that: (i) Vendor is solely responsible for the Vendor Application; (ii) MedChart is not liable for any fault in the Vendor Application or any harm that may result from its installation or use; (iii) except where expressly stated by MedChart, MedChart cannot provide assistance with the installation or use of the Vendor Application; and (iv) Vendor is solely responsible for any liability which may arise from a User’s access to or use of the Vendor Application, including: (A) the development, use, marketing or distribution of or access to the Vendor Application, including support of the Vendor Application; or (B) Vendor’s access, use, distribution or storage of User Data. Without limiting the foregoing, Vendor Terms must contain clear and legally adequate disclosures about the nature of Vendor Application’s integration with MedChart and the User Data you are collecting and how you may use it. “User” means an individual or business that uses the MedChart Service to sell products or services.
(b) Vendor will have in place and will present the User with a privacy policy that complies with all applicable privacy laws and provides adequate notice and obtains prior consent as required for the collection, use and storage of the User Data, and any Personal Information the Application will access once installed (“Vendor Privacy Policy”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Vendor’s Vendor Terms and Vendor Privacy Policy will describe in sufficient detail (i) the services to be provided by the Vendor’s Application, (ii) the User Data that will be accessed by the Application in order to provide such services, (iii) how the User Data will be used and transferred to third parties, if applicable, and (iv) the Vendor’s contact information. Vendor will respond reasonably promptly to any questions regarding its privacy practices.
(c) If you access User Data, you will (and will ensure that your employees, agents and service providers will): (1) access only the minimum User Data fields Vendor Application needs to work properly, as permitted by the User; (2) not use, access, store, or make copies of the User Data or any other data relating to a User, that Vendor receives via the Vendor Application or the MedChart Service except as necessary to provide the Vendor Application services to the User to whom the User Data relates and as described in the applicable Vendor Terms or Vendor Privacy Policy, and only within the limits and for the purposes as specified by the User; (3) limit access to User Data only to those employees of Vendor who need to have access to the User Data and solely for the purposes of Vendor Application integrating with the MedChart Service and that have entered into written agreements no less protective of such Confidential Information than these Terms; (4) not share, sell, disclose or otherwise provide such information to any third party, except as provided for in these Terms; (5) not use User Data for competitive benchmarking; (6) ensure that you have obtained effective consent from the applicable individual, to the extent such consent is legally required, before you provide MedChart with information that you independently collected from them; (7) not directly or indirectly transfer any data you receive from MedChart (including anonymous, aggregate or derived data) to any third party or any other Vendor Application you may own, except as necessary to provide your Vendor Application's services or if expressly authorized by the User; and (8) ensure the User Data is collected, processed, transmitted, maintained and used in accordance with Vendor Terms, all Applicable Laws and reasonable measures that protect the privacy and security of the User Data, including any security requirements or data processing requirements or any other requirements from MedChart. Vendor and its personnel will comply with the policies, processes, procedures and standards of MedChart provided or made known to Vendor.
(d) Vendor shall implement reasonable and appropriate physical measures to prevent unauthorized physical access to Vendor Applications, its systems, technical, administrative and organizational security procedures and practices appropriate to the sensitivity of the User Data including without limitation information about an identifiable individual or information that is subject to applicable privacy or data protection laws (“Personal Information”), to protect the User Data against loss, theft, destruction, damage, alteration and unauthorized or unlawful access, use, disclosure or other risks incurred by processing in pursuit of the MedChart Service. You will notify MedChart of any actual or suspected breach, unauthorized or unlawful access, use, disclosure or compromise of User Data (a “Data Breach”) immediately upon, but no later than twenty-four (24) hours of, becoming aware of such occurrence, by reporting an issue to MedChart via email at legalnotices@medchart.ca. Upon learning of the Data Breach, at your own cost, you will: (A) promptly remedy the Data Breach to prevent any further loss of User Data; (B) investigate the incident; (C) take reasonable actions to mitigate any future anticipated harm to MedChart, its affiliates or Users; and (D) promptly answer questions from MedChart relating to the Data Breach, regularly communicate the progress of your investigation to MedChart and cooperate to provide MedChart with any additional requested information in a timely manner.
(e) Vendor will not: (i) sell or share User Data; (ii) collect, retain, use, or disclose User Data for any purpose; (iii) retain, use, or disclose User Data outside the direct business relationship with MedChart; (iv) combine the User Data with other Personal Information, including for data augmentation or profiling, unless expressly permitted under Applicable Laws for Vendor functions (such as for fraud prevention purposes, or where required by law); (v) aggregate User Data, even if anonymized, to share with any third party or for Vendor’s own internal uses; or (vi) export User Data outside the country from which it was provided or collected without MedChart’s prior written consent. For the sake of clarity, in the course of providing the Vendor Application and using any MedChart Service hereunder, to the extent that Vendor is able to derive, extrapolate or otherwise infer any non-Personal Information about MedChart’s business, financial activities and/or operations from its processing of User Data (even if aggregated or anonymized), such information shall be treated as MedChart’s Confidential Information (as defined below), and Vendor shall be prohibited from disclosing (except as required to comply with Applicable Law), selling or using such information for its own commercial purposes, unless expressly permitted by MedChart.
(f) For clarity, any user’s access or use of the MedChart Service itself is subject to MedChart’s Service Terms or other applicable terms agreed by MedChart with the user, not Vendor Terms. If MedChart receives any User Data from or on behalf of a user, including through or enabled by Vendor Application, MedChart will treat such User Data under its applicable terms with such user and such data will no longer be subject to Vendor Terms.
(g) Vendor shall not itself, and will not permit others to:
i. sub-license, sell, resell, rent, lend, lease or distribute the MedChart Service or any and all registered and unregistered rights granted, applied for or otherwise now or hereafter in existence under or related to any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, database protection or other intellectual property rights laws, and all similar or equivalent rights or forms of protection, in any part of the world (“Intellectual Property Rights”) therein or otherwise make the MedChart Service available to others;
ii. submit to the MedChart Platform or MedChart Service any viruses, worms, defects, Trojan horses, malware or any items of a destructive nature;
iii. try to exceed or circumvent limitations on calls and use;
iv. defame, abuse, harass, stalk or threaten others, promote unlawful activities or send disruptive or offensive messages or advertisements;

vii. download, scrape, post or transmit (in any form or means) any part of our website or content;

ix. transfer any User Data, in the form provided through the MedChart Platform, to any third party;
x. permit any third party to use any User Data, for any purpose not directly related to your advertised service offering, including but not limited to the on-sale of transactional bank feed data or any revenue generating product or services;

xii. access the MedChart Platform for competitive purposes (including to connect to a competitive product or to create your own competitive product) or publicly disseminate performance information or analysis (including uptime, response time and/or benchmarks) relating to the MedChart APIs; or
xiii. authorize, permit, enable, induce or encourage any third party to do the above.
(h) MedChart shall have the right to audit, or to appoint an independent auditor under appropriate non-disclosure conditions to audit Vendor Application, systems and records to confirm Vendor’s compliance with the Terms, including without limitation Vendor’s compliance with MedChart’s requests and requests from Users, as applicable, to delete User Data obtained through the MedChart Service or otherwise through our MedChart Platform.

VENDOR APP PROGRAM SUPPLEMENTARY TERM
This Supplementary Term applies in addition to, and should be read in conjunction with the Terms, which are incorporated in this Supplementary Term by reference to the extent applicable and which govern matters in relation to Vendor’s activity on the MedChart Platform or the Program, respectively. In the event of any inconsistency between this Supplementary Term and Terms, the Terms will take priority. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in these Supplementary Term will have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Terms. This Supplementary Term governs MedChart’s relationship with Vendor for the third party vendor application program (the “Program”).
1. Program Prerequisites. To be eligible for the Program, Vendor must meet the following prerequisites:
- Register to become an Vendor;
- Integrate Vendor Application with MedChart through the MedChart API or such other means as agreed by MedChart; Demonstrate your integration to the MedChart API;
- Run a successful pilot of the integration with a range of MedChart’s customers; Develop and maintain sufficient end user documentation for the integration; and
- Comply with any other requirements that MedChart may, in its sole discretion, require from time to time.
Vendor status as a Vendor will not be confirmed until the above steps are complete to MedChart’s satisfaction. MedChart reserves the right to accept or decline any organization or entity becoming a Vendor. MedChart also reserves the right to terminate its relationship with any existing Vendor at any time.
2. Vendor Ongoing Obligations.
To maintain status as a Vendor, Vendor shall:
- Maintain compliance with the Terms;
- Never abuse the relationships with the wider MedChart ecosystem with unsolicited email campaigns or other actions or inactions;
- Keep all branding and promotional material up to date;
- Actively support and maintain Vendor Application and all integrations; and
- Otherwise act in good faith in your use of MedChart and the integration.
3. Revenue Sharing.
Once Vendor has been accepted to the Program, MedChart will be entitled to receive the revenue share per the Revenue Share Supplementary Term agreed to by the parties. Each Vendor that enters into a revenue share Supplementary Term is a “ Revenue Share Vendor.” During the term of the Revenue Share Period (as defined and set out in the applicable revenue share Supplementary Term), MedChart will be entitled to a revenue share based on subscriptions or transactions to Vendor Application via the MedChart Platform. The specifics, terms and conditions of the revenue share payable by Vendor to MedChart will be set forth in the revenue share Supplementary Term.
4. Duration of these Supplementary Term.
This Supplementary Term is effective immediately upon Vendor being confirmed as a Vendor, as applicable, by MedChart, and remains in force until earlier terminated as provided in the Terms. Without limiting Section 12 of the Terms, MedChart may terminate this Supplementary Term for any reason on notice to Vendor. MedChart may from time to time and in its discretion, without limiting any of its other rights or remedies at law or in equity, suspend Vendor’s participation in the Program at any time, cancel or modify the Programs in its entirety, at any time. If this Supplementary Term is terminated by MedChart for any reason, Vendor will no longer be able to participate in, or receive the benefits of, the Program. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the termination of this Supplementary Term, Vendor will still be subject to the Terms to the extent Vendor uses any part of the MedChart Service.
