Attending Beta Terms of Use

Version 1.0 — Effective 4/1/2026

Attending is an invite-only platform operated by Opit Works LLC ("Attending," "we," "us"). These Beta Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of Attending during the pre-release beta period. By checking the boxes below and accessing Attending, you agree to these Terms.

Please read this carefully. Attending is pre-release software intended for testing by a small number of invited physicians. Full Terms of Service will apply when Attending becomes generally available. You will be asked to accept the updated terms at that time.

1. Eligibility

You may use Attending only if:

  • You are a currently licensed physician, resident, or fellow in the United States;
  • You are at least 18 years old;
  • You have received an invite from Attending or an existing user; and
  • You are not barred from using Attending under applicable law.

You agree to provide accurate information about your medical training, specialty, and institution. Attending may verify this information and may suspend or terminate accounts that cannot be verified or that contain false information.

2. Beta Status

Attending is pre-release software. You acknowledge that:

  • Features may change, break, or be removed without notice;
  • The service may be unavailable, slow, or lose data at any time;
  • Content you post may be deleted during beta testing;
  • Attending is not yet generally available and should not be relied upon as a primary tool for clinical communication, patient care, or medical decision-making; and
  • Your feedback about the product may be used to improve Attending without obligation or compensation to you.

3. Your Responsibilities Regarding Patient Information

This is the most important section of these Terms. Please read carefully.

Attending is designed to display de-identified clinical cases for educational discussion among invited physicians. Attending is not a HIPAA-compliant platform, is not a covered entity, is not a business associate of any healthcare provider, and does not sign business associate agreements. You should not treat Attending as any of these things.

You agree that:

  • You will de-identify any patient information before submitting it to Attending. This applies to cases, comments, images, videos, documents, dictation, messages, feedback screenshots, and any other content you provide. De-identification means removing all direct identifiers (name, date of birth, medical record number, address, full-face photographs, etc.) and anything that could reasonably allow the patient to be identified by someone with access to additional information.
  • You retain sole responsibility for your HIPAA compliance and for any other patient privacy obligations imposed by law, your employer, your licensing board, or your professional ethics. Attending is a tool you use in support of that responsibility, not a substitute for it.
  • Attending is not for HIPAA-regulated PHI workflows. Do not use Attending to submit, store, transmit, or discuss identifiable patient information where HIPAA-compliant handling, a business associate agreement, or institutional authorization is required.
  • Attending's de-identification assistance is not a guarantee. Attending uses automated tools to help flag potentially identifying content (including facial features, visible text, and patterns suggestive of PHI) in images, video, audio, documents, and text you upload. These tools are imperfect. You are responsible for reviewing all content before posting or sending and for ensuring it is de-identified. Attending does not warrant that its tools will catch all identifying content.
  • If you believe you have posted or sent patient information in error, you will delete the content immediately and notify us at legal@onattending.com so we can remove it from our systems and caches.
  • You will not post content you do not have the right to post, including content owned by a third party, content posted in violation of your employment or institutional policies, or content from a patient who has specifically asked that their case not be shared.

Submitting content that contains unredacted patient information, or content you do not have the right to submit, is a material breach of these Terms and may result in immediate account termination.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use Attending to:

  • Solicit or provide specific medical advice for identifiable patients;
  • Diagnose, treat, or manage the care of any patient through the platform;
  • Represent yourself as someone other than the physician you are;
  • Harass, defame, or discriminate against other users;
  • Post content that is sexually explicit, gratuitously violent, or unrelated to clinical case discussion;
  • Post advertisements, promotional content, or solicitations of any kind;
  • Attempt to access, scrape, or disrupt Attending's systems;
  • Use Attending to collect, train, or develop competing products, machine learning models, or datasets; or
  • Use Attending in any way that violates applicable law or professional ethics.

5. Content You Post

You retain ownership of the clinical content you post to Attending. By posting content, you grant Attending a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, display, and distribute that content to other users of Attending for the purposes of operating the platform.

This license does not permit Attending to:

  • Sell your content to third parties;
  • License your content to advertisers, pharmaceutical companies, or other commercial entities;
  • Use your content to train generative AI models for resale; or
  • Use your content outside the platform in a way that identifies you by name without your consent.

You can delete content you have posted at any time. Deletion removes the content from the visible platform; cached or backup copies may persist for a reasonable period before being purged.

6. Not Medical Advice

Attending is an educational platform. Content on Attending is provided by individual physicians for peer discussion and learning. Nothing posted or discussed on Attending is medical advice, and no physician-patient relationship is created by posting, reading, or commenting on Attending. You should not make clinical decisions about any specific patient based solely on content you encounter on Attending.

7. Privacy

Attending collects and processes personal information as described in our Privacy Policy at app.onattending.com/privacy. Key commitments during the beta period:

  • We will not sell your personal information;
  • We will not share your personal information with advertisers or pharmaceutical companies;
  • We will not use your content to target ads;
  • We will not train external commercial AI models on your clinical content.

We use third-party service providers (hosting, authentication, AI analysis for de-identification assistance) to operate the platform. These providers process data on our behalf under contractual confidentiality and security obligations.

8. Disclaimers

ATTENDING IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" DURING THE BETA PERIOD, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR AVAILABILITY. ATTENDING DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY CONTENT POSTED BY USERS IS ACCURATE, APPROPRIATE, OR DE-IDENTIFIED.

9. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OPIT WORKS LLC AND ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, REVENUE, OR PROFITS, ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF ATTENDING, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OPIT WORKS LLC'S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF ATTENDING DURING THE BETA PERIOD IS LIMITED TO ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($100).

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Opit Works LLC and its officers, employees, and agents from any claim, demand, loss, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of:

  • Content you post to Attending, including any claim that content contained unredacted patient information or violated a third party's rights;
  • Your violation of these Terms;
  • Your violation of applicable law, including HIPAA and other patient privacy laws, in connection with your use of Attending.

11. Termination

Attending may suspend or terminate your access to the platform at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including violation of these Terms. You may stop using Attending and request account deletion at any time by emailing support@onattending.com.

Sections 3, 5, 8, 9, 10, and 12 survive termination.

12. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to conflict of laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of Attending will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in King County, Washington, and you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts.

13. Changes to These Terms

Attending may update these Terms during the beta period. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email and require you to accept the updated Terms on your next login. Continued use of the service after an update constitutes acceptance.

When Attending exits beta and becomes generally available, these Beta Terms will be replaced with full Terms of Service. We will notify you in advance and give you an opportunity to review and accept the new terms before continuing to use the service.
