bill you for any other features used, if they are not covered, we will charge your account for the
selected Program.

the subject of the Services-Related Disputed Matter were consistent with industry standards, the
provisions of the related Program and these Terms of Use. Should Yadira decide the Services-Related
Disputed Matter in favor of the Coach, the Client shall be obligated to make payment of the Withheld
Payment Amounts to such Coach within the seven (7) calendar day period after the date on which such
Client is notified in writing of the Yadira Services-Related Disputed Matter Decision (the “Yadira
Services-Related Disputed Matter Decision Notice''). In the event that the Client fails to make
timely payment, Yadira will remit the Withheld Payment Amounts to the Coach who will assign his or

terms set forth in this Section 14 shall apply.

her right to dispute the Withheld Payment Amounts, which amounts will be charged to the Client’s
on-file credit card, PayPal account, or other approved methods of payment in accordance with Section
14.d. of these Terms of Use.
- b. In the event that the Client does submit a Services-Related Dispute Notice within the Client
Dispute Notice Period, and such request contains the information set forth in clause 15.a. above,
Yadira will attempt in good faith to work with the Client and the Coach for a period of up to
fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of the Services-Related Dispute Notice (such period, the
“Services-Related Disputed Matter Meditation Period”) to resolve the Services-Related Disputed
Matter. In the event that the Services-Related Disputed Matter is successfully resolved within the
Services-Related Disputed Matter Meditation Period, each of the Client, Coach and, if relevant,
Yadira will take the agreed upon steps to execute the agreed-upon resolution.
- D. Once you have selected a Program, Yadira will make reasonable efforts to verify your insurance
coverage for nutrition services and/or a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) device. After our initial
discovery, we will let you know whether these are covered by your insurance plan. If they are, we
will bill your insurance company for the nutrition services provided and/or CGM device(s) and only
bill you for any other features used, if they are not covered, we will charge your account for the
selected Program.
- c. In the event that the Services-Related Disputed Matter remains unresolved at the conclusion of
the Services-Related Disputed Matter Meditation Period, by no later than the fourteenth (14th)
calendar day after the end of the Services-Related Disputed Matter Meditation Period, Yadira shall
make a determination in its sole and absolute discretion (the “Yadira Services-Related Disputed
Matter Decision”), and based upon the information theretofore provided by the Client and Coach, as
to whether the nature and quality of the services rendered in connection with the Program which is
the subject of the Services-Related Disputed Matter were consistent with industry standards, the
provisions of the related Program and these Terms of Use. Should Yadira decide the Services-Related
Disputed Matter in favor of the Coach, the Client shall be obligated to make payment of the Withheld
Payment Amounts to such Coach within the seven (7) calendar day period after the date on which such
Client is notified in writing of the Yadira Services-Related Disputed Matter Decision (the “Yadira
Services-Related Disputed Matter Decision Notice''). In the event that the Client fails to make
timely payment, Yadira will remit the Withheld Payment Amounts to the Coach who will assign his or
her rights to reimbursement for such amounts to Yadira which may, in its sole discretion, process
payment pursuant to Section 14.d and/or elect to pursue its rights and remedies against the Client.
- d. Payment Authorization. By agreeing to these terms, the Client is giving Yadira permission to
charge your on-file credit card, PayPal account, or other approved methods of payment for fees that
the Client authorized Yadira to bill, as well as any payments owed. Depending on the Program or
Membership Subscription, Yadira may charge the Client on a one-time or recurring basis. The Client
authorizes Yadira to charge you the full amount owed to any Coach via the Platform, as well as any
applicable service, processing and platform fees. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that in a
particular instance a Client only uses the Platform to pay for services or subscriptions other than
those which are the subject of a Program, by placing your credit card or PayPal account on file with
Yadira or our third party payment processor, the Client acknowledges and agrees that the payment
terms set forth in this Section 14 shall apply.
-
a. In the event that the Coach and Client have both timely availed themselves of the rights set
forth in Section 14 and Section 15, the procedures set forth in Section 15 shall take precedent over
the proceedings set forth in Section 14 and the Coachagrees to permanently waive his or her right to
pursue his or her rights set forth in Section 13 with respect to the facts and circumstances
underlying the Payment-Related Disputed Matter. The procedures set forth in this Section 15 shall be
referred to herein as the “Alternative Dispute Resolution Procedures''.
16. Disclaimer of Warranties. We provide our service as is, and we make no promises or guarantees about
this service. Please read this section carefully; you should understand what to expect.

responsibility and risk of loss resulting from your use of information, content or other material
obtained from the Platform. Some jurisdictions limit or do not permit disclaimers of warranty, so
this provision may not apply to you.
- D. Once you have selected a Program, Yadira will make reasonable efforts to verify your insurance
coverage for nutrition services and/or a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) device. After our initial
discovery, we will let you know whether these are covered by your insurance plan. If they are, we
will bill your insurance company for the nutrition services provided and/or CGM device(s) and only
bill you for any other features used, if they are not covered, we will charge your account for the
selected Program.
17. Limitation of Liability. We will not be liable for damages or losses arising from your use of the
service or arising under this Agreement. Please read this section carefully; it limits our obligations
to you.
-
a. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will Yadira be liable to you for any loss
of profits, use, or data, or for any incidental, indirect, special, consequential or exemplary
damages, however arising, that result from (i) the use, disclosure, or display of your
Member-Generated Content; (ii) your use or inability to use the Platform; (iii) the Platform
generally or the software or systems that make the Platform available; or (iv) any other
interactions with Yadira or any other Member of the Platform, whether based on warranty, contract,
tort (including negligence) or any other legal theory, and whether or not Yadira has been informed
of the possibility of such damage, and even if a remedy set forth in this Agreement is found to have
failed of its essential purpose. Yadira will have no liability for any failure or delay due to
matters beyond our reasonable control. Some jurisdictions limit or do not permit disclaimers of
liability, so this provision may not apply to you.
- 18. Third Party Beneficiaries. Coaches are intended third-party beneficiaries of this section of the
Terms of Use. Any legal information provided on the Platform is for informational purposes only.
Yadira and any creator of Member-Generated Content containing legal information disclaim all
warranties, either express or implied, statutory or otherwise, including but not limited to the

particular purpose, to the fullest extent permitted by law. In no event will Yadira or a Coach be
liable for any damages (including, without limitation, incidental and consequential damages,
personal injury / wrongful death, lost profits, or damages resulting from lost data or business
interruption) resulting from the use of or inability to use the Platform or the Member-Generated
Content, whether based on warranty, contract, tort, or any other legal theory, and whether or not
Yadira or contributors of Member-Generated Content are advised of the possibility of such damages.

-
a. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will Yadira be liable to you for any loss
of profits, use, or data, or for any incidental, indirect, special, consequential or exemplary
damages, however arising, that result from (i) the use, disclosure, or display of your
Member-Generated Content; (ii) your use or inability to use the Platform; (iii) the Platform
generally or the software or systems that make the Platform available; or (iv) any other
interactions with Yadira or any other Member of the Platform, whether based on warranty, contract,
tort (including negligence) or any other legal theory, and whether or not Yadira has been informed
of the possibility of such damage, and even if a remedy set forth in this Agreement is found to have
failed of its essential purpose. Yadira will have no liability for any failure or delay due to
matters beyond our reasonable control. Some jurisdictions limit or do not permit disclaimers of
liability, so this provision may not apply to you.a. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Yadira
from and against any and all claims and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of your use
of the Platform, including but not limited to your violation of this Agreement.
- b. If you have a dispute with one or more Members, you release Yadira from claims, demands and
damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in
any way connected with such disputes. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil
Code §1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not
know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him
must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”
20. Modification of Terms of Use. Yadira may amend this Agreement from time to time, and at Yadira's sole
discretion. We will provide notification to Members of material changes to this Agreement (i) by sending
a notice to the primary email address specified in your account, which will take effect immediately upon
our sending of this email, and/or (ii) through our Platform at least 30 days prior to the change taking
effect by posting a notice on our home page. Non-material changes to this Agreement will take effect
immediately. We encourage visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to this Agreement. Your
continued use of the Platform after the effective date of a revised version of this Agreement
constitutes your acceptance of its terms.
21. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement
-
a. Yadira is committed to participating in a consumer-friendly dispute resolution process. This
Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement shall apply if your (i) Country of Residence is in the
United States; or (ii) your Country of Residence is not in the United States, but bring any claim
against Yadira in the United States (to the extent not in conflict with Section 21).
- b. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution and Notification. Prior to initiating an arbitration, you and
Yadira each agree to notify the other party of the dispute and attempt to negotiate an informal
resolution to it first. We will contact you at the email address you have provided to us; you can
contact Yadira’s customer service team by emailing us. If after a good faith effort to negotiate one
of us feels the dispute has not and cannot be resolved informally, the party intending to pursue
arbitration agrees to notify the other party via email prior to initiating the arbitration. In order
to initiate arbitration, a claim must be filed with the AAA and the written Demand for Arbitration
(available at www.adr.org) provided to the other party, as specified in the AAA Rules.
- c. Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Yadira mutually agree that any dispute, claim or controversy
arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use or the breach, termination, enforcement or
interpretation thereof, or to the use of the Yadira Platform (collectively, “Disputes”) will be
settled by binding arbitration (the “Arbitration Agreement”). If there is a dispute about whether
this Arbitration Agreement can be enforced or applies to our Dispute, you and Yadira agree that the
arbitrator will decide that issue.
- d. Exceptions to Arbitration Agreement. You and Yadira each agree that the following claims are
exceptions to the Arbitration Agreement and will be brought in a judicial proceeding in a court of
competent jurisdiction: (i) Any claim related to actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation
or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual
property rights; (ii) Any claim seeking emergency injunctive relief based on exigent circumstances
(e.g., imminent danger or commission of a crime, hacking, cyber-attack).
- e. Modification to AAA Rules - Arbitration Hearing/Location. In order to make the arbitration most
convenient to you, Yadira agrees that any required arbitration hearing may be conducted, at your
option, by telephone, online, or based solely on written submissions; (b) the arbitration will not
involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the
parties.
- f. Modification of AAA Rules - Attorney’s Fees and Costs. You and Yadira each agree that either
party may be entitled to seek an award of attorney fees and expenses if they prevail in arbitration,
to the extent provided under applicable law and the AAA rules.
- g. Arbitrator’s Decision. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and
conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be
entered in any court with proper jurisdiction. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive
relief only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by
the claimant’s individual claim.
- h. Jury Trial Waiver. You and Yadira acknowledge and agree that we are each waiving the right to a
trial by jury as to all arbitrable Disputes.
i. No Class Actions or Representative Proceedings. You and Yadira acknowledge and agree that we are
each waiving the right to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action
lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, private attorney-general action, or any other representative
proceeding as to all Disputes. Further, unless you and Yadira both otherwise agree in writing, the
arbitrator may not consolidate more than one party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any
form of any class or representative proceeding. If this paragraph is held unenforceable with respect
to any Dispute, then the entirety of the Arbitration Agreement will be deemed void with respect to
such Dispute.
j. Severability. In the event that any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed illegal or
unenforceable, such provision shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall
be given full force and effect.
k. Changes. Notwithstanding the provisions (“Modification of these Terms”), if Yadira changes this
Section (“Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement'') after the date you last accepted these
Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject any such change by sending
us written notice (including by email) within three (3) days of the date such change became
effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated” date above or in the date of Yadira’s notice to you of
such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between
you and Yadira in accordance with the provisions of the “Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
Agreement'' section as of the date you last accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes
to these Terms of Use).
22. Miscellaneous. This Agreement is controlled by New York law. You, and you alone, are responsible for
any obligations you agree to under this contract. If we are involved in a merger or we are bought, we

Agreement will be construed to reflect the parties’ original intent. The remaining portions will

Agreement will not be considered a waiver of our right to enforce such provision. Our rights under
this Agreement will survive any termination of this Agreement.

your relationship with Yadira must commence within ONE year after the cause of action accrues.

other policies, guidelines or terms without Yadira’s prior written consent, and any unauthorized
assignment and delegation by you is void.
