Terms of Services

“Service” or “Services” means shae′s products, software, services, and website (including but not limited to text, graphics, images, and other material and information) as accessed from time to time by the user, regardless if the use is in connection with an account or not.

“Personal Information” is information that can be used to identify you, either alone or in combination with other information. shae collects and stores the following types of Personal Information:

“Registration Information” is the information you provide about yourself when registering for and/or purchasing our Services (e.g. name, email, address, user ID and password, and payment information).

“Phenotype Information” is information regarding your phenotype generated through processing of your Personal Health Assessment and measurements.

“Self-Reported Information” is all information about yourself, including your disease conditions, other health-related information, personal traits, ethnicity, family history, and other information that you enter into surveys, forms, or features while signed in to your shae account.

“User Content” is all information, data, text, software, music, audio, photographs, graphics, video, messages, or other materials – other than Phenotype Information and Self-Reported Information-generated by users of shae Services and transmitted, whether publicly or privately, to or through shae.

“Web Behavior Information” is information on how you use the shae website (e.g. browser type, domains, page views) collected through log files, cookies, and web beacon technology.

“Aggregated Phenotype and Self-Reported Information” is Phenotype and Self-Reported Information that has been stripped of Registration Information and combined with data from a number of other users sufficient to minimize the possibility of exposing individual-level information while still providing scientific evidence.

“shae″ means shae, Inc., whose principal place of business is at Gloucester Rd, Wanchai, Hong Kong.

“R&D” means research and development activities performed by shae on user data. These activities may include, among other things, improving our Services and/or offering new products or services to you; performing quality control activities; conducting data analysis that may lead to and/or include commercialization with a third party.

“Our Research” means scientific research that shae performs with the intent to publish in a scientific journal. Our Research activities do not include R&D.

Your use of shae′s Services (excluding any services provided by shae under a separate agreement) is subject to the terms of the legal agreement between you and shae set forth in these Terms of Service (“TOS”). Except as specified herein, these TOS apply to any use of the Services, including but not limited to a) submitting your Personal Health Assessment (“PHA”) and measurement information for processing, b) uploading a digital version of your Phenotype Information and interacting with it on the shae.ai website, and/or c) creating and using a free shae account. In order to use the Services, you must first agree to the TOS. You may not use the Services if you do not accept the TOS. You can accept the TOS by (1) clicking to accept or agree to the TOS, where this option is made available to you by shae for any Service; or by (2) actually using the Services. In this case, you acknowledge and agree that shae will treat your use of the Services as acceptance of the TOS from that point onwards. In addition, when using particular shae Services, you shall be subject to any guidelines or rules applicable to such services that may be posted from time to time. All such guidelines or rules are hereby incorporated by reference into the TOS. shae also may offer other services from time to time that may be governed by different terms of service.

Whether you submit your own PHA and measurements, PHA and measurements for anyone for whom you have legal authority to agree, or otherwise provide your own Phenotype Information, you may not use the Services and may not accept the TOS if (1) you are not of legal age to form a binding contract with shae, or (2) you are a person barred from receiving the Services under the laws of the jurisdiction in which you are resident or from which you use the Services.

In addition to the conditions above, if you contribute or otherwise provide your own Phenotype Information, you must be twenty-one (21) years of age or older to agree to these TOS on behalf of yourself or those for whom you have legal authority to agree.

The Services include access to the shae public website and personal phenotyping services, including the collection and analysis of your PHA and measurements. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, each new feature that augments or enhances the current Service shall be subject to the TOS. You acknowledge and agree that the Services are provided “AS-IS” and are based on the current state of the art of Phenotype research and technology in use by shae at the time of the purchase or viewing. As research progresses and scientific knowledge and technology evolve, shae is constantly innovating in order to provide the best possible experience for its users. You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the Services which shae provides may change from time to time without prior notice to you. As part of this continuing innovation, you acknowledge and agree that shae may stop (permanently or temporarily) providing some Services (or any features within the Services) to you or to users generally at shae′s sole discretion, without prior notice to you. You may stop using the Services at any time. You do not need to specifically inform shae when you stop using the Services unless you are requesting closure of your account. shae assumes no responsibility for the use of Services outside the terms of this TOS or other applicable terms.

In order to use the Services, you must obtain Internet access, either directly or through devices that access web-based content, and pay any service fees associated with such access. You are solely responsible for paying such fees. In addition, you must provide all equipment necessary to make such Internet connection, including a computer and modem or other access device. You are solely responsible for providing such equipment. You acknowledge and agree that while shae may not currently have set a fixed upper limit on the number of transmissions you may send or receive through the Services or on the amount of storage space used for the provision of any Service, such fixed upper limits may be set by shae at any time, at shae′s discretion.

Once you obtain your Phenotype Information, the knowledge is irrevocable. You should not assume that any information we may be able to provide to you, whether now or as Phenotype research advances, will be welcome or positive. You should also understand that as research advances, in order for you to assess the meaning of the information provided in our Services in the context of such advances, you may need to obtain further services from shae or from your physician or other health care provider.

You may learn information about yourself that you do not anticipate. This information may evoke strong emotions and has the potential to alter your life and worldview. You may discover things about yourself that trouble you and that you may not have the ability to control or change (e.g., that someone with your phenotype may have a higher than average chance of poor health, which may lead to developing a specific condition or disease). These outcomes could have social, legal, or economic implications.

You should not change your health behaviors solely on the basis of information from shae. Make sure to discuss your Phenotype Information with a physician or other health care provider before you act upon the insights resulting from shae Services. There may be known or unknown genes, environmental factors, or lifestyle choices that are far more important predictors of health and wellness. If your data indicate that you are at a higher level of overall wellness, you should not feel that you are protected from poor health outcomes. The opposite is also true; if your data indicate you are at a poor level of overall wellness, it does not mean you will definitively develop a disease or condition. In either case, if you have concerns or questions about what you learn through shae, you should contact your physician or other health care provider.

Phenotype research is not comprehensive. While we calculate data based on many thousands of data points from your self-assessment, only a small percentage of them are known to be related to human traits or health outcomes. The research community is rapidly learning more about Phenotypes, and an important mission of shae is to conduct and contribute to this research. In addition, many ethnic groups are not included in Phenotype studies. Because interpretations provided in our service rely on these published studies, some interpretations may not apply to you. Future scientific research may change the interpretation of your Phenotype. In the future, the scientific community may show previous research to be incomplete or inaccurate.

Phenotype Information you share with others could be used against your interests. You should be careful about sharing your Phenotype Information with others. Currently, very few businesses or insurance companies request Phenotype information, but this could change in the future. The protection against discrimination by employers and health insurance companies for employment and coverage issues has not been clearly established. You may want to consult a lawyer to understand the extent of legal protection of your Phenotype Information before you share it with anybody.

Furthermore, Phenotype Information that you choose to share with your physician or other health care provider may become part of your medical record and through that route be accessible to other health care providers and/or insurance companies in the future. Phenotype Information that you share with family, friends or employers may be used against your interests. Even if you share Phenotype Information that has no or limited meaning today, that information could have greater meaning in the future as new discoveries are made. If you are asked by an insurance company whether you have learned Phenotype Information about your health and you do not disclose this to them, this may be considered to be fraud.

shae Services are for research, informational, and educational use only. We do not provide medical advice. The Phenotype Information provided by shae is for research, informational, and educational use only. This means two things. First, many of the Phenotype discoveries that we report have not been clinically validated, and the technology we use, to date has not been widely used for clinical testing. Second, in order to expand and accelerate the understanding and practical application of Phenotype knowledge in health care, we invite and default all phenotyped users to participate in Our Research. As a result of the current state of Phenotype knowledge and understanding, our Services are for research, informational, and educational purposes only. The Services are not intended to be used by the customer for any diagnostic purpose and are not a substitute for professional medical advice. You should always seek the advice of your physician or other health care provider with any questions you may have regarding diagnosis, cure, treatment, mitigation, or prevention of any disease or other medical condition or impairment or the status of your health.

shae does not endorse, warranty or guarantee the effectiveness of any specific course of action, resources, tests, physician or other health care providers, drugs, biologics, medical devices or other products, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned on our website. If we provide to you on our website any recommendations that identify for you, based on your Phenotype and Self-Reported Information and scientific literature or research, potentially actionable information, this information is intended for informational purposes only and for discussion with your physician or other healthcare provider. As explained on our website, shae believes that (a) the state of the understanding of Phenotype Information is rapidly evolving and at any given time we only comprehend part of the picture of the role of the Phenotype, and (b) only a trained physician or other health care provider can assess your current state of health or disease, taking into account many factors, including in some cases your Phenotype as well as your current symptoms, if any. Reliance on any information provided by shae, shae employees, others appearing on our website at the invitation of shae, or other visitors to our website is solely at your own risk.

By accessing shae Services, you agree to, acknowledge, and represent as follows: You understand that information you learn from shae is not designed to diagnose, prevent, or treat any condition or disease or to ascertain the state of your health in the absence of medical and clinical information. You understand that the shae services are intended for research, informational, and educational purposes only, and that while shae information might suggest or offer insight into a lifestyle intervention, it should always be confirmed and supplemented by additional medical and clinical testing and information. You acknowledge that shae urges you to seek the advice of your physician or other health care provider if you have questions or concerns arising from your Phenotype Information.

You give permission to shae, its contractors, successors and assignees to perform phenotyping services on the PHA and measurements and you specifically request shae to disclose the results of analyses performed on your PHA and measurements to you and to others you specifically authorize.

You represent that you are twenty-one (21) years of age or older if you are providing a PHA and measurements or accessing your Phenotype Information.

You take responsibility for all possible consequences resulting from your sharing with others access to your Phenotype Information and your Self-Reported Information.

You understand that all your Personal Information will be stored in shae databases and will be processed in accordance with the shae Privacy Statement. Waiver of Property Rights: You understand that by providing any PHA and measurements, having your Phenotype Information processed, accessing your Phenotype Information, or providing Self-Reported Information, you acquire no rights in any research or commercial products that may be developed by shae or its collaborating partners. You specifically understand that you will not receive compensation for any research or commercial products that include or result from your Phenotype Information or Self-Reported Information.
