8.1 Educational purpose. All training programmes, courses, lessons, modules, sales scripts, scenarios, assessments, templates, checklists, webinars, AI-generated responses, and other materials made available through V-Unite (together, the "Content") are provided for general educational and informational purposes only, as a guide to support your team's training.
8.2 No professional advice. The Content is not, and must not be relied on or treated as, medical, clinical, legal, regulatory, compliance, financial, tax, insurance, or other professional advice.

You are solely responsible for obtaining advice from appropriately licensed and qualified professionals (including, as applicable, your medical director, supervising physician, licensed clinicians, attorney, compliance adviser, and insurer) before acting on any Content, and for confirming that your practices comply with the laws, licensing and scope-of-practice rules, regulations, professional standards, and insurer requirements that apply to your business and location. Laws and standards vary by jurisdiction and change over time, and the Content may not reflect every current requirement or your particular circumstances.
8.4 Training is not certification. Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, completing a course, assessment, or learning pathway through V-Unite does not guarantee legal or regulatory compliance and does not constitute a licence, accreditation, credential, or professional qualification for any person.
8.5 Clinical and business decisions. Handi Media does not provide, supervise, or direct patient care, treatment, or consultations. All clinical decisions, treatment protocols, patient communications, consent processes, advertising claims, and business practices remain the responsibility of you and your licensed professionals, including where they are informed by sales scripts, roleplay scenarios, or other Content.

9Limitation of Liability
Exclusion of indirect loss. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and except with respect to (i) gross negligence or intentional wrongdoing, (ii) intellectual property infringement claims, or (iii) indemnification obligations, neither party shall be liable to the other for any indirect, special, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or in connection with the Agreement, whether based on breach of contract, tort, or any other legal theory, even if the relevant party has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Cap on liability. Handi Media's total aggregate liability to you in connection with the Agreement shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to Handi Media in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, plus any attorney fees awarded to you in connection with such claims.
Indemnification — Handi Media. Handi Media will indemnify, defend, and hold you harmless from any third-party claims that V-Unite infringes a third party's intellectual property rights.
Indemnification — Client. You will indemnify, defend, and hold Handi Media harmless from any claims arising out of or in connection with your use of V-Unite, your breach of the Agreement, or your violation of any applicable law.
Non-disparagement. Neither party shall make disparaging, defamatory, or slanderous statements about the other party, its officers, employees, or agents, during or after the Term.
10Term & Termination
The Agreement commences on the Effective Date and continues for the initial term set out in the applicable schedule or appendix. It automatically renews for successive periods of the same duration unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal at least 60 days before the end of the then-current term.
Either party may terminate the Agreement immediately on written notice if:
- the other party commits a material breach and fails to remedy it within 30 calendar days of receiving written notice of the breach;
- V-Unite materially fails to perform in accordance with the agreed specifications, and Handi Media fails to remedy the failure within 30 days of written notice;
- the other party becomes insolvent, makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, files for bankruptcy, or has a receiver appointed and such appointment is not dismissed within 45 days.
Handi Media may terminate the Agreement with 60 days' written notice if a change in law or regulation substantially changes the obligations or costs applicable to Handi Media's provision of V-Unite.
On termination for any reason, your licence to use V-Unite immediately ceases, all outstanding fees become immediately due and payable, and each party must promptly return or destroy the other party's Confidential Information as directed.
Survival. The provisions of these Terms relating to intellectual property, confidentiality, limitation of liability, indemnification, non-disparagement, and governing law survive the expiry or termination of the Agreement.
11General Provisions
Non-solicitation. During the Term and for a period of two (2) years after termination, neither party shall directly or indirectly solicit, hire, or retain any employee, contractor, or staff member of the other party without prior written consent. Neither party is prevented from hiring individuals who respond to general job advertisements not specifically targeted at the other party's staff.
Force majeure. Neither party is responsible for delays or failures caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, pandemics, government lockdowns, acts of war, terrorism, civil unrest, power failures, or natural disasters. Performance timelines are extended by the duration of any such event.
No assignment. You may not assign the Agreement or any rights or obligations under it, voluntarily or by operation of law, without Handi Media's prior written consent, except in the case of an acquisition of your business, in which case written notice must be provided promptly. Any unauthorised assignment is void.
Independent contractors. The parties are independent contractors. Nothing in the Agreement creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship between the parties.
Entire agreement. The Agreement, together with these Terms and all incorporated schedules and appendices, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties in respect of its subject matter and supersedes all prior agreements, representations, and understandings. Any amendment must be agreed in writing and signed by both parties.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force.
Waiver. Failure by either party to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver of any right under these Terms.
Notices. All notices must be in writing and delivered by hand, registered mail, overnight courier, fax, or email with confirmation of transmission. Notices are effective on confirmed delivery.
Governing law & jurisdiction. These Terms and any Agreement incorporating them are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without giving effect to conflict of law principles. Each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Texas for the resolution of any dispute arising under or in connection with the Agreement.
Liquidated damages. If you contend that any restriction in the Agreement is unenforceable, you must first notify Handi Media in writing at least 14 days before taking any action that could fall within the restriction. Failure to comply with this requirement will be deemed a material breach, and you will be liable to pay Handi Media liquidated damages of USD $20,000 per violation, which the parties agree represents a reasonable pre-estimate of loss.
