Terms of Use · EdPortus

Who we are

EdPortus ("we", "us") runs edportus.com, learn.edportus.com and admin.edportus.com (the "Service"). EdPortus is EdPortus Medical Education, LLC, a Florida limited liability company in formation, based in Florida, USA. You can reach us at support@edportus.com.

The Service offers continuing education courses, short quick learn items, guides, search, and tools to track your licenses and credentials.

Agreeing to these Terms

When you create an account or buy anything, you tick a box that links to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. By ticking it, you agree to these Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Refund Policy, which is part of these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Who may use the Service

The Service is for licensed physicians (MD or DO), and for residents with an NPI. We may check your NPI against the public NPPES registry and review an account before giving full access. Our guides and state-rule pages are open to everyone.
You must be at least 18 years old.
Guides and search are public, but they are written for health professionals.

Your account

Give true, current information, including your name, degree and license details. Certificates and reports use what you enter.
Keep your password private. You are responsible for activity on your account. Tell us right away at support@edportus.com if you think someone else has used it.
One person per account. Do not share an account or a course seat. Group seats bought by an employer are assigned to named people.
We may keep you signed in on a device for a long time. Sign out on shared devices.

Plans, prices and payment

Free: tracking and reminders for one state license, plus free guides and search.
Pro: tracking for every license and credential, plus the other features listed on the pricing page. Pro costs $149 per year or $15 per month. Pro also includes the state-required courses we offer for your licenses, each once it is certified, and the DEA MATE course once, when it is certified. Not every required topic will have one of our courses.
Founding price: the first 1,000 verified physicians who reserve a founding spot pay $99 per year for Pro. You keep that price for as long as your subscription stays active without a gap. It ends if you cancel or your subscription lapses, and it is not available again after that. "Verified" means we have matched your NPI to a physician in the national NPI registry (or confirmed it by our own review) and you have confirmed your reservation from the email we sent you.
Single courses are sold one at a time at the price shown.
Prices are in US dollars and do not include any tax we must collect.
Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your full card number.

Automatic renewal

Please read this section carefully. We follow the federal Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act and California's automatic renewal law for every customer, wherever you live.

Pro renews automatically until you cancel. An annual plan renews every year and a monthly plan renews every month. Each renewal is charged to your saved payment method.
Before you buy, the checkout page shows the price, how often you will be charged, that the plan renews automatically until you cancel, and how to cancel.
Your consent. You must tick a separate, unticked box agreeing to automatic renewal before we charge you. We keep a record of that consent.
Confirmation. After you buy, we email you the renewal terms and how to cancel, in a form you can keep.
Annual reminder. For annual plans, we email you 15 to 45 days before each renewal with the date, the price and a link to cancel.
Monthly receipt. For monthly plans, each month's receipt includes a link to cancel.
Price changes. We will tell you at least 30 days before any renewal at a new price. You can cancel any time before that renewal.
Cancel online, any time. Go to your account settings and cancel in a few clicks. No phone call or chat is needed. You can also email support@edportus.com. Canceling stops the next renewal, and you keep Pro until the end of the period you already paid for.
Referral free period. Pro has no free trial, with one exception: while we offer referrals, if you sign up through a colleague's invite link your first 30 days of Pro are free. Checkout then shows how long the free period lasts, the date and amount of the first charge, and that Pro renews automatically after it until you cancel, and the unticked consent box names them too. Cancel online before the first charge date and you pay nothing; otherwise the first charge is made on that date and Pro renews as described above.

Refunds

Pro: full refund within 30 days of your first purchase, no questions asked. If you forget to cancel an annual renewal, ask within 14 days of the renewal charge for a full refund. Monthly charges are not refunded once the month has started.
Single courses: full refund within 30 days of purchase if no certificate has been issued for the course. A refund cancels any certificate for that course.
The Refund Policy has the details. Where a law gives you more rights, that law applies.

Credit and Board acceptance

We never promise that a course will be accepted by any Board. Your licensing Board decides what it accepts, and so do specialty boards, hospitals and other bodies for their own rules. Please confirm with them.
Credit is awarded only as stated on each course, once that course is certified. A course without certification carries no credit.
Where a state requires it, or you ask us to, we report your completions to the reporting system that applies. You must enter your license details correctly for this to work, and you remain responsible for your own deadlines.

Tracking is information, not legal advice

Our planner, requirement summaries, guides, reminders and trackers, and any summary of a law, rule or reporting duty in a course or quick learn item, are built from public sources, cited on each page. Rules change, and we can make mistakes.
They are general information. They are not legal advice and do not create an attorney-client relationship.
Confirm with your Board before relying on any summary or deadline.
We never renew a license, registration or certification for you, and we never ask for your Board, DEA or reporting-system passwords.

Education, not patient care advice

Courses, quick learn items and guides are education for health professionals. They are not advice about the care of any patient. Your clinical judgment remains your own, along with current guidelines, product labeling and the standards of your practice. Course cases are fictional.

Do not enter patient information anywhere in the Service.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

share your account, answers or test content, or take a course or test for someone else;
misstate your identity, degree, license or the time you spent on an activity;
copy, scrape, frame or resell the Service or its content, or use it to train AI models;
record, screenshot, download or redistribute courses, videos, reels or questions, except your own certificates and transcripts and anything we offer for download;
upload anything unlawful, infringing or harmful, anything containing malware, or any patient information;
probe, attack or overload the Service, or get around its security or access limits;
use the Service to send spam or collect other users' information.

We may investigate misuse and may cancel certificates obtained through misuse.

Our content

The Service and its content, including courses, questions, guides, illustrations, software and design, belong to EdPortus or its licensors and are protected by copyright and other laws. Sources we cite belong to their owners.
We give you a personal, non-transferable, revocable license to use the content for your own education and records while you have access. You may print or download your own certificates and transcripts.
EdPortus™ and our logo are our trademarks.

Your content

You keep ownership of what you upload, such as certificates, cards and letters.
You give us a limited license to store, process, display and send it only to run the Service for you, for example to show it in your vault, read dates from it, or report credit you ask us to report.
You confirm you have the right to upload it and that it contains no patient information.

Community posts

Community is a separate area of EdPortus for short videos from clinicians. It carries no credit of any kind and is kept apart from our courses and quick-learn items.

Who may post. Only clinicians whose National Provider Identifier we have verified. Anyone may watch.
What you promise when you post. The video contains no information that could identify a patient; you own it or have permission to share it; it is accurate to the best of your knowledge; and it does not advertise a drug, device or other product of a company whose business is producing, marketing or selling health-care products.
Promoting your practice or business is allowed when you mark the post "Promoted" and say what you are promoting. We show that label to viewers.
Your rights. You keep ownership of your post. You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, show, share and promote it on EdPortus and in links to it, until you delete it (copies already shared may remain).
Review and removal. A new poster's first posts are reviewed before they appear. Anyone may report a post; we may hide, remove or decline any post, and restrict or close a posting account, for breaking these Terms or for safety. Posts are the views of their authors, not EdPortus, and are not medical advice.

Copyright complaints

We respect copyright and respond to notices that meet the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. section 512).

Designated agent: EdPortus, copyright@edportus.com. Postal address: to be listed here once our company registration is complete; until then, send notices by email.

To send a notice, email our designated agent with all of the following (17 U.S.C. section 512(c)(3)):

your physical or electronic signature, or that of the person authorized to act for the copyright owner;
the copyrighted work you believe was infringed, or a list if several works are covered by one notice;
the material you believe infringes, and enough information for us to find it, such as the link to the Community post or page;
your name, postal address, telephone number and email address;
a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and
a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act for the owner.

A notice that leaves out these elements may not be acted on. Knowingly misrepresenting that material infringes can make you liable for damages (17 U.S.C. section 512(f)).

What we do. When we receive a complete notice, we remove or disable access to the material promptly and tell the person who posted it, with a copy of the notice.

Counter-notice. If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or that you have the right to use it, you may send a counter-notice to the same address with:

your physical or electronic signature;
the material that was removed and where it appeared before it was removed;
a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith the material was removed by mistake or misidentification;
your name, postal address and telephone number; and
a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the district where your address is (or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice or that person's agent.

We send the counter-notice to the person who sent the original notice. Unless that person tells us within 10 business days that they have filed a court action to stop the use, we restore the material within 10 to 14 business days after we received the counter-notice.

Repeat infringers. We close, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of people who repeatedly infringe copyright. In Community, a poster whose material is removed after valid notices on two occasions loses the ability to post, and on a third their account is closed. A removal reversed after a counter-notice, or withdrawn by the person who complained, does not count. We may act sooner when infringement is clear or deliberate.

Feedback

If you send us ideas or suggestions, we may use them without paying you or naming you.

Closing an account

You can close your account at any time in your account settings. Download your records from "My data" first.
We may suspend or close an account that breaks these Terms, puts others at risk, or where the law requires. Where reasonable, we will tell you first and give you a chance to fix the problem.
After closing, we keep some records, such as completions and certificates, for at least six years because accreditation rules require it. The Privacy Policy explains this.
Sections that by their nature should continue, such as those on credit, disclaimers, liability and disputes, continue after your account closes.

Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement. We do not promise that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any requirement summary or reminder is complete or current.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows:

we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost income, a lapsed license, a missed deadline, or Board discipline or fines; and
our total liability for any claim about the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or $100.

These limits do not apply where the law does not allow them, for example to fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Indemnity

You agree to defend and hold harmless EdPortus and its members, staff and contractors from claims by others that arise from your misuse of the Service or from content you upload.

Disputes and governing law

Talk to us first. Before filing any claim, email support@edportus.com describing the problem. We will both try in good faith to resolve it informally for 30 days.
Then, either of us may bring the claim in small claims court if it qualifies. Otherwise, claims go to the state courts in Pasco County, Florida, or the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, and you and we agree to their jurisdiction and venue.
Florida law governs these Terms, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules.
There is no arbitration requirement and no class-action waiver.
To the extent permitted by law, you and we each waive the right to a jury trial.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We will post the new version with a new date. For material changes, we will tell you by email and on the site at least 30 days before they take effect. Changes never apply to a dispute that arose before they took effect. If you do not agree, you can cancel before the new Terms apply.

General

These Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Refund Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about the Service. If any part is unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. If we do not enforce a term, we have not waived it. You may not transfer these Terms; we may transfer them as part of a merger or sale of the business. Notices to you go to your account email.
