Terms of use

1．Welcome to Virtus Care!

This page explains our terms of use. When you use Virtus Care, you’re agreeing to all the rules on this page. Some of them need to be expressed in legal language, but we’ve done our best to offer you clear and simple explanations of what everything means.

Welcome to Virtus Care. By using this website (the “Site”) and services, you’re agreeing to these legally binding rules (the “Terms”). You’re also agreeing to our Privacy Policy and agreeing to follow any other rules on the Site.

We may change these terms from time to time. If we do, we’ll let you know about any material changes, either by notifying you on the Site or by sending you an email. New versions of the terms will never apply retroactively — we’ll tell you the exact date they go into effect. If you keep using Virtus Care after a change, that means you accept the new terms.

2．About Creating an Account

When you do that, the information you give us has to be accurate and complete. Don’t impersonate anyone else or choose names that are offensive or that violate anyone’s rights. If you don’t follow these rules, we may cancel your account.

You’re responsible for all the activity on your account, and for keeping your password confidential. If you find out that someone’s used your account without your permission, you should report it to support@Virtus Careinc.com.

To sign up for an account, you need to be at least 18 years old, or old enough to form a binding contract where you live. If you registered a doctor account, we may ask you for practicing certificate and/or license.
