  1. BMS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES FOR ANY DAMAGES, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR OTHERWISE, CAUSED BY OR RESULTING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM BMS’ FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR RESULTING FROM ANY DEFECT OR NONCONFORMITY OF THE PRODUCT OR ANY OTHER MATTER, FACT, EVENT OR OCCURRENCE RELATING TO THE OPERATION, PERFORMANCE OR CONDITION OF THE PRODUCT.

Acknowledgment of Instructions & Understanding of BMS Information.  Purchaser acknowledges receiving instruction on the proper use and care of the Product and represents and warrants that Purchaser understands the proper use and care of the Product.  Purchaser agrees to follow the proper use and care instructions, including, but not limited to the Product Use Guidelines.

  1. Confidentiality of Purchaser Information.  Purchaser’s personal information will be kept confidential by BMS in accordance with state and federal law and regulations that apply to BMS.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that BMS is not a “health care provider” or a “covered entity” under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) and, as such, is not regulated by HIPAA in its relationship with Purchaser.  Purchaser authorizes the use and disclosure of de-identified personal and health information by BMS for marketing and research purposes.

  1. Termination.  This Agreement shall terminate by mutual agreement of the Parties.

  1. No Practice of Medicine or Health Care.  BMS is not a medical provider and its representatives are not physicians or any other type of licensed health care provider, which means that BMS is not permitted or qualified to evaluate or opine on any individual’s condition or circumstances or whether treatment or care involving the Product is appropriate for Purchaser.  BMS makes no representations or warranties to Purchaser regarding the effectiveness of the Product or whether some other care setting or modality is more appropriate for Purchaser.  As a result, it is solely up to Purchaser and Purchaser’s physician or other qualified health care provider to determine whether use of the Product is appropriate for Purchaser.  Purchaser and Purchaser’s treating physician or other health care practitioner, based on consultations or discussions, have determined that the Product may assist Purchaser in managing a health care related condition.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to permit BMS to practice medicine, health care or any healing arts, to manage, own, operate or conduct a medical office or practice, to furnish medical services, physicians, non-physician practitioners or health care or healing arts advice, to advertise under or assume the title of physicians, non-physician practitioners or equivalent title, to promote or perform any unlawful advertisement or other unlawful act prohibited by state law, or to hold itself out as being entitled or able to perform any of the foregoing.  The rendition of all professional services, including, but not limited to, the prescription or administration of medicine and drugs, and whether the Product should be used in treating the Purchaser, shall be the sole responsibility of Purchaser’s physician or other licensed health care practitioner in the exercise of his or her own independent professional judgment within the scope of their license.  BMS shall not interfere in any manner or to any extent with the performance of such physician or practitioner’s medical or professional judgment.

  1. Assignment.  Purchaser may not assign, mortgage, encumber, or transfer any rights or obligations under this Agreement in whole or in part, nor grant a license or concession in connection therewith without the prior written consent of BMS.  

  1. Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or illegal in any state it shall be severed here from for purposes of enforcement in that state but shall not invalidate any of the remaining provisions herein.

  1. Applicable Law; Venue.  Purchaser agrees that this Agreement is to be construed under the laws of the State of Minnesota, and that if legal action in any way related to this Agreement or the Product is brought, that Federal District Court of Minnesota (4th Division) or Hennepin County District Court (4th Judicial District) shall have the exclusive jurisdiction and be the exclusive legal venue for such action unless BMS, in its sole discretion, commences proceedings in a different jurisdiction or venue.

  1. No Third Party Rights.  The Parties agree that they do not intend to create any enforceable rights in any third parties under this Agreement and that there are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.
