Terms of Service

Effective date: 11th of October 2024

Thank you for selecting Provet Cloud as your practice management software. You now have access to a rich library of tools and features with which to manage your practice.

This notice is made, and these terms are published, by Nordhealth Finland OY, a company incorporated in Finland, whose registered address is at Aleksanterinkatu 30-34, 00100 Helsinki, Finland, email address is support@provet.info, and telephone number is accessible at https://www.provet.cloud/contact. Our website to which these terms refer is located at https://provetcloud.com/ (Website).

These terms are important because, when you accept them – which occurs when you sign and return your Subscription Agreement, when you start using the Provet Cloud Service, or we begin to provide Professional Services (as those expressions are defined below) to you, whichever is the earlier - they create a binding contract between you and us and set out our respective rights and obligations in relation to your use of the Provet Cloud Service and any other services we agree to provide to you.

We will keep a copy of the Agreement (as defined below) for our own purposes, but the filed copy will not be accessible by you. Accordingly, you are advised to download and retain a copy for your records.

A glossary of the words and phrases used in these Provet Cloud Terms of Service is set out below, together with rules to be applied to understand what they mean. In addition, references to we or Nordhealth are to Nordhealth Finland OY, and to you are to the company, organisation, or other person whose details are set out on your Subscription Agreement or, in any other case, to which or to whom our services are provided (and related expressions shall be read accordingly).
