Terms of Service

Effective 2026-07-13

This is a template provided for convenience and is not legal advice. Have it reviewed and adapted by a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction before use.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Dentist Owners onboarding and deal-room platform and related websites (the "Platform"), operated by [Legal Entity] ("Dentist Owners," "we," "us," or "our"). By creating an account, signing an agreement, or otherwise using the Platform, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.

1. What the Platform is

The Platform lets dental practice owners apply to affiliate with a doctor-owned group, complete a diligence profile, and securely exchange business documents with the group's review team under a signed confidentiality agreement. The Platform is a tool for that process; the terms that govern any affiliation are the separate agreements you sign, not this page.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and have authority to enter into these Terms on behalf of yourself and any practice or entity you represent. The Platform is intended for licensed dental professionals and their authorized advisors.

3. Accounts and security

You are responsible for all activity under your account. Keep your credentials and two-factor authentication device confidential, enable two-factor authentication, and notify us promptly of any unauthorized use. You are responsible for ensuring that anyone you invite (co-owners, accountants, attorneys) is authorized to access what you share with them.

4. Acceptable use

You agree to upload business records only — never patient records or other protected health information (PHI). You will not: attempt to access another practice's data; probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Platform; interfere with or disrupt the Platform; use it to violate any law; or misrepresent your identity or authority.

5. Documents and agreements

Confidentiality, participation, and other agreements executed on the Platform are real, binding agreements between you and the applicable party, recorded with a tamper-evident electronic-signature certificate. Your consent to electronic signatures is described in our E-Sign Consent.

6. Intellectual property

The Platform, including its software, design, and content (excluding your documents), is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by law. You retain all rights to documents you upload; you grant us a limited license to host, encrypt, and process them solely to provide the Platform.

7. Third-party links

The Platform and dentistowners.com may link to third-party businesses and websites (for example, other companies in the Dentist Owners network). We are not responsible for third-party content, products, or practices; your use of them is governed by their terms.

8. Disclaimers

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. Nothing on the Platform is legal, tax, accounting, or investment advice. See our Disclaimer.

9. No offer of securities

Nothing on the Platform constitutes an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security. Any offer of an equity or ownership interest will be made only through definitive agreements, to eligible persons, in compliance with applicable securities laws.

10. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR DATA, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100).

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising out of your misuse of the Platform, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

12. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access at any time for violation of these Terms or to protect the Platform. You may stop using the Platform at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 6, 8–11, and 13) survive termination.

13. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of [Governing State], without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. The exclusive venue for disputes is the state and federal courts located in [Governing State], and you consent to their jurisdiction.

14. Changes

We may update these Terms; material changes take effect when we post the updated Terms with a new effective date. Your continued use after changes means you accept them.

15. Electronic communications

You consent to receive communications from us electronically, including at the email associated with your account.
