Reformulary Group Inc. (“Reformulary Group”, “we”, “us” or ”our“) provides the DrugFinder® service, available through a website browser, a mobile device browser, a downloadable application, or other technology used to access any features, functionality, content or information (collectively referred to as the “Site”), and the services provided by or through the Site (“DrugFinder” or the “Services”). These Terms of Use (these “Terms”) are a legal agreement between Reformulary Group and you (“you” or “User”) that governs your access to the Site and use of the Services.

By accessing the Site and using the Services, you are confirming that you are authorized to agree (including under applicable age of majority laws) and that you are accepting and agreeing to be bound by these Terms and all policies and guidelines incorporated by reference in these Terms.

If you are accepting these Terms as authorized representative on behalf of another individual, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind such individual to these Terms and by accepting these Terms, you are doing so on behalf of such individual (in which case the terms “you” or “User” shall refer to such individual and to the authorized representative in his or her capacity as authorized representative). For example, the provisions below relating to Prohibited Uses shall be binding on the individual on whose behalf the authorized representative is agreeing to these Terms and the authorized representative when acting as such. An authorized representative may be a parent, spouse, or other person with the authority to use the Services on behalf of another individual. Reformulary Group reserves the right to request proof from such authorized representative that he or she has the authority to bind another individual to these Terms.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE ACCESSING THE SITE AND USING THE SERVICES AS THESE TERMS SET OUT YOUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS WITH RESPECT TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES. IF YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO AGREE OR DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO ACCESS THE SITE OR USE THE SERVICES.

These Terms are in effect as of the date of acceptance as noted above. Reformulary Group reserves the right to add, remove, modify or otherwise change any part of these Terms at any time without prior notice. Changes will be effective when the changed terms and conditions are posted on the Site or otherwise made available to you. Your access to the Site and use of the Services will be subject to the then current version of the Terms at the time of such access or use.

It is your responsibility to consult these Terms from time to time to ensure that you are up to date on any changes which may affect you. Your continued access to the Site or use of the Services after the changes to the terms and conditions take effect will constitute your acceptance of such changes. If you do not agree to such changes, you must not access the Site and stop using the Services.
 
Through the Site, Reformulary Group provides access to the Reformulary®, an evidence-based list of drugs curated by an independent committee of clinical experts and organized into tiers based on the healthcare value the drug provides to individuals. Reformulary Group provides health-related and prescription drug information on the Site, including drug lists, medical condition descriptions, drug recommendations, product descriptions, reports, newsletters, articles, opinions and views, pricing information, and co-pay/co-insurance level information (the “Service Content”).

Service Content is developed by an independent committee made up of clinical experts, based on their review and consideration of the latest scientific evidence, cost-effectiveness data, clinical practice guidelines and real-world use. Reformulary Group does not receive funding from drug manufacturers to develop DrugFinder and does not benefit (directly or indirectly) from prescribing decisions that may be informed by the Service Content.

Users are able to search the Reformulary® by drug name, Drug Identification Number (DIN) or medical condition to get information and obtain recommendations about specific drugs. Users may share the Reformulary® search results with their doctor or pharmacist to discuss their drug choices. Users can also access health information, resources and industry news available on the Site

As a plan member of a health benefit plan provider subscribed to the Reformulary®, you can register a personal User account to access additional features, such as (i) creating your ‘Medicine Cabinet’ to keep track of your medicine and prescription information; (ii) getting information about your coverage for a specific drug under your health benefit plan; and (iii) signing up for alerts about new drug alternatives and other health information. For the purposes of these Terms, where you allow other persons to access and use your User account, the terms “you” or “User” shall refer to such persons.
 
The Services provided through the Site shall be used solely for personal and non-commercial purposes. You may only access the Site and use the Services in accordance with these Terms. In particular, you may not resell, lease, distribute or provide the Services in any manner to others, except as expressly permitted by Reformulary Group pursuant to these Terms. You are responsible for ensuring that you are complying with all applicable laws when accessing the Site and using the Services.

Service Content is designed for information purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for a physician's advice, diagnosis or treatment, and should not be used to replace a healthcare professional for diagnosis or for treatment. Further, the Service Content is not intended to promote the sale or disposal of any drug. You should not act or rely on any Service Content without seeking the advice of a qualified professional, including a health care professional.

Reformulary Group grants you, and your authorized Users, a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable licence to access and use the Services, Site and Service Content for your own internal use according to these Terms. You may display, download or print the Service Content for your own personal, non-commercial use provided that such Service Content is not modified, and you retain all copyright and other proprietary notices contained in such materials, and you agree to be fully responsible for any consequences resulting from such use. You may not use, or allow others with access to your User account, to use the Services, Site and Service Content in any manner or for any purpose other than the purposes permitted by Reformulary Group in these Terms.
