1. The Service
Nutricia shall, subject to the provisions of the Terms and Conditions provide you, the registered Nursing Home, with the following services (“the Service”).
The Service is a fully hosted web application accessible via the internet at nutriciacareapp.nutricia.ie. It provides an online practice management and video consultation system to registered Nursing Homes.
The Service is provided by, set up, managed and maintained by us and our appointed hosting partners.
Periodically, we may make changes, add functionality, issue Maintenance Releases or introduce new features to the Service. These changes are made expressly at our discretion. We will endeavour to make the Service available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. However, you acknowledge and agree that the Service may occasionally be unavailable during periods of planned or unscheduled maintenance. We may perform unscheduled maintenance at any time but will do this outside of normal business hours where possible.
We reserve the right to alter, suspend or terminate the App temporarily or permanently at any time or to deny access to App without notice and for any reason.
The Service is made available to you for internal business purposes only, and such use must comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including without limitation privacy laws, and must not infringe or violate third party rights.
Access to the App must be limited to Nursing Home commercial devices (i.e. non personal devices) only.
Access to the App is by invitation only and is available only via an individual secure ID code and a secure password issued for each Nursing Home. The Nursing Home is entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of its passwords and accounts, and for any and all activities that occur under the Nursing Home accounts or passwords.
The Nursing Home agrees to immediately notify Nutricia of any unauthorised use of its accounts or passwords on the App, or any other breaches of security related to the App.
Any unauthorised use of the Service is a violation of this Agreement and may breach Irish law. Such violations may subject you or your staff to civil and criminal penalties.

We reserve the right to change, modify, substitute or remove without notice any Content on the App from time to time.
You agree to use the App only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not harm the interests or infringe the rights of Nutricia or any other third party or user.
You may not use this App:
(a) for any reason or purpose which is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, harmful, abusive, invasive of another’s privacy or otherwise objectionable; or

Access and third party sites
We will endeavor to allow uninterrupted access to the App, but Nutricia does not warrant that functions contained in the App will be uninterrupted or error free, that defects will be corrected, or that it is free of viruses or bugs. Access to the App may be suspended, restricted or terminated at any time. Whilst we make all reasonable attempts to exclude viruses and other harmful code from the App, Nutricia cannot ensure such exclusion and no liability is accepted for viruses and other harmful code. Thus, you are recommended to take all appropriate safeguards before downloading information from or accessing the App.
The App or Service may contain links to other independent websites which are not provided by us. Such independent sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for and have not checked and approved their content or their privacy policies (if any). We encourage you to read the privacy statement of every website you visit.
3. Limitation of Liability
We use reasonable endeavors to ensure that data on the App is accurate and to correct any errors or omissions as soon as practicable after being notified of them.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all warranties and representations (whether express or implied) as to the accuracy of any information contained on the App. We do not guarantee that the App will be fault free and do not accept liability for any errors or omissions.
Due to the nature of electronic transmission of data over the internet, any liability we may have for any losses or claims arising from an inability to access the App, or from any use of the App or reliance on the data transmitted using the App, is excluded to the fullest extent permissible by law. In no event shall we be liable for any direct, indirect loss, consequential loss, loss of profit, data, revenue, business opportunity, anticipated savings, goodwill or reputation whether in contract, tort or otherwise arising out of or in connection with this agreement or use of the App save where such liability cannot be excluded by law.

5. Membership and Security
Access to the App must be limited to Nursing Home commercial devices (i.e. non personal devices) only.
Access to the App is by invitation only. Once you have completed the registration process and your request for access has been approved you will receive an individual secure ID code and a secure password issued by Nutricia.
The Nursing Home is entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of its passwords and accounts, and for any and all activities that occur under the Nursing Home accounts or passwords.
You acknowledge that security of the App may be compromised if you do not follow applicable policies and procedures and take appropriate steps to maintain the security of the App, including, without limitation, maintaining the confidentiality of username and passwords, frequent changing of passwords and maintaining appropriate internal controls to monitor access to and use of the App.
The Nursing Home agrees to immediately notify Nutricia of any unauthorised use of its accounts or passwords on the App, or any other breaches of security related to the App. We reserve the right to require users to amend username and passwords if necessary, for security reasons.
All accounts must be registered with a valid Nursing Home email address that you access regularly so that verification codes and moderation emails can be sent to you. Accounts registered with someone else's email address, or with temporary email addresses may be closed without notice. We may require users to re-validate their account if we believe they have been using an invalid email address.
For security reasons, you will be required to reset your password every 90 days. Failure to do so will result in your access to the App being restricted and you will need to request access again.
If your account is inactive for 90 days, your access to the App will be removed and you will need to request access again. We reserve the right to close accounts at our sole discretion.
