These Terms govern your use of the website at www.patientpartner.com, along with the services and information available through the website, through chat, through video or audio communications, through your participation by any means as a Mentee under the PatientPartner mentor program, and through any Rightdevice app (each and collectively, the "Site"). These Terms apply whether you access the Site from a computer, mobile device, or tablet.
By accessing or using the Site, registering for a Service Account with Rightdevice, registering your participation as a Mentee under the PatientPartner program, or clicking the "Submit" button, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms, the Rightdevice Privacy Policy, the Code of Conduct, and any other policies in effect at that time.
