The Service has been designed by Profile with the goal of assisting people with weight loss and weight management. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT INDIVIDUAL RESULTS VARY. You also understand and agree that Profile may, but is not obligated to, modify the Service, Plan, and the Documentation for a variety of reasons, including for consistency with the most recent weight loss and weight management research. Your specific Weight Loss Goal will be modified to a lower agreed upon weight loss percentage if your weight loss would drive your weight below a healthy weight range.

2.2 Profile Promise. We promise you will lose at least 20 pounds, or lesser agreed upon goal, within 6-months on Profile Premium or Community Memberships or get your money back! The Profile Promise is subject to the following terms and conditions: (1) you must attend a minimum of 20 Appointments; (2) you must track nutritional intake in the Profile Journey App 5 out 7 days a week or 71% of the time; (3) you must read the Profile Plan session recaps sent in Journey App and execute and track the weekly goals set between you and the Profile coach 3 out 4 weeks out of the month or 75% of the time (4) you must weigh in on your Profile Smart Body Scale provided by Profile and sync the data to the Profile Journey App at least once per week; (5) you must purchase Profile Foods according to your Personalized Meal Plan; and (6) you must comply with this Agreement and all dietary and activity recommendations provided to you by Profile and your Profile Coach(es). The Profile Promise is null and void if: (a) Your membership is prematurely canceled, suspended, or frozen prior to 6-months on the Profile Plan (b) it is not appropriate or healthy for you to lose twenty pounds of your body weight or the lesser agreed upon goal (your body weight must be in the healthy BMI range); or (c) you have or develop a health or medical condition that prevents you from losing twenty pounds of your body weight or the lesser goal, or the health or medical condition makes it inappropriate for you to do so. You will be responsible for the cost of all Profile Foods associated with following your Plan even if you have paid for a Membership that includes Profile Foods (i.e., bundled Memberships); Profile will not pay the cost of your Profile Foods or accessories in any event.  Once you’ve lost 20 pounds of your body weight or the lessor agreed upon goal, the Promise is fulfilled.  You must put forth a good faith effort to fulfill the Profile Promise.

2.3 Profile Coaches. As part of the Plan and Service, Profile will provide you with access to Profile Coaches, who will consult with you virtually or in person. You agree to work with your Profile Coaches in good faith solely with respect to the Service, and you will not seek consultation from your Profile Coaches for any other purpose. Unless instructed otherwise by Profile, you agree to conduct your sessions with Profile Coaches alone, with no observers, and you will not record any such session in any way.

2.4 Profile Precise. Profile Precise is a genetic test that uses a cheek swab to collect a DNA sample to determine nutrition-related markers. You agree Profile may use the results of the test to provide you with general nutritional advice that may be used with your Plan. You agree and give consent to Profile, its third party contractors, successors and assignees to perform genetic services on the DNA extracted from the saliva sample you provide. You confirm that you are above the age of majority in the jurisdiction in which you reside and that you have voluntarily given your informed consent to have your saliva samples tested for nutrition-related genetic markers. Your use of Profile Precise is voluntary.

The physical risks of the saliva test are minimal and related to inserting the swab sample collection tool into your mouth and wiping the inside of your check. Waiting for and receiving your results may present certain psychological risks or create anxiety for you. You may have emotional reactions to learning the results of the test. You may experience anxiety about sharing the results of your test with other people, including your family, who may have similar genetic markers. Therefore, you may want to meet with or discuss the Profile Precise test with your healthcare provider before deciding to participate.

There are possible economic risks of genetic testing that may affect your ability to obtain life, long-term care, or disability insurance. Your insurer may request information about the test results or ask if you have had a genetic test.

You agree and understand:

  • the nature and purpose of the Profile Precise test
  • the effectiveness and limitations of the test
  • the possible consequences of submitting the DNA sample for testing
  • the risks and benefits of the Profile Precise test and its results
  • you may experience anxiety from going through the testing process and/or receiving the results.
  • to consult with your healthcare provider if you have any questions about the test and/or legal advisor about any insurance or other legal implications of taking the test
  • the possible uses and disclosures of your de-identified data by Profile, including for future commercial or research purposes, or other uses determined exclusively by Profile
  • that genetic testing is optional and is not required to participate in the Service
  • you have been able to ask your Profile representative about all of your questions regarding this test and your questions were satisfactorily answered.

Once you submit your saliva sample, it is shipped to Profile’s third party contract laboratory, where the sample is irreversibly processed and it cannot be returned to you. The test results are reported to and analyzed by Profile. Any genetic information taken from your saliva sample remains your information but is subject to the rights that are expressed in this Agreement and Profile’s Privacy Statement. Profile’s third-party contractor laboratory is measuring the copy number variation of genetic markers associated with the production of the enzyme amylase by your body. Profile interprets this information to provide general nutrition advice related to macronutrient intake. Future genetic research may change how your DNA is interpreted by Profile. Profile Precise is currently not available in Maryland, New Jersey, and New York. In addition, Profile and/or select Franchisees may not, in its or their sole discretion, offer Profile Precise at your Site or may impose additional requirements for you to obtain Profile Precise. Profile does not guarantee that Profile Precise is available at every Site.

2.5 Your Health. PROFILE AND ITS FRANCHISEES ARE NOT MEDICAL ORGANIZATIONS. YOU SHOULD NOT CONSIDER THE SERVICE OR THE DOCUMENTATION AS MEDICAL ADVICE OF ANY KIND, AND THE SERVICE IS NOT INTENDED TO TREAT ANY ILLNESS, DISEASE, OR ADVERSE MEDICAL CONDITION. Profile and its Franchisees are not licensed medical care providers, and we have no expertise in diagnosing, examining, or treating medical conditions of any kind, or in determining the effect of any specific exercise on a medical condition. You are urged and advised to seek the advice of a physician before beginning your use of the Service, and to get periodic medical check-ups as recommended by your primary care physician. The information and reports generated by Profile or its Franchisees should not be interpreted as a substitute for physician consultation, evaluation, or treatment. By using the Service, you represent that you are healthy enough to begin a weight loss regimen that includes dieting and exercise. If you are currently under the care of a health care professional or are living with a chronic health care condition, you represent that you have obtained the express approval from a health care professional to receive the Service before beginning. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have been told by Profile staff or any Profile Coach.

2.6 Profile Precise Testing Limitations. Profile Precise is informational and educational use only. No medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment is provided with regard to any Profile Service, including Profile Precise, and is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The genetic information reported has not been clinically validated. Profile’s laboratory may not be able to process your sample and the analysis may result in errors or inaccurate results. The laboratory may not be able to process your sample if your saliva sample does not contain enough DNA volume, you do not provide enough saliva, or the results do not meet the requisite quality and accuracy standards of Profile’s third party contract laboratory. If the laboratory processing fails because of any of these reasons, the Client has one of two options: (1) Profile will process the same saliva sample without any additional charges to the Client. If the second attempt fails, Profile will offer to ship another kit to the Client to collect a second saliva sample at no charge; or (2) the Client may elect a full refund of the amount paid to Profile for Profile Precise testing. Despite established standards for the processing of saliva samples, a small fraction of data processed during the laboratory process may not be capable of interpretation or may be incorrect (“Errors”). Clients are not entitled to refunds arising from Errors.

Claims of Copyright Infringement. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you have a good faith belief that materials hosted by Profile infringes your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly being infringed upon; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed upon (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the Site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow Profile to locate the material on the Profile site; (d) the name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send Profile a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/ for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Site should be sent to Profile Development, LLC, Attn: Legal Department, P.O. Box 2010, 801 Broadway North, Fargo, ND 58122-0206. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

In any action to enforce these terms and conditions, the prevailing party will be entitled to costs and attorneys’ fees. In the event that any of the provisions of these terms and conditions shall be held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these terms and conditions shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.

Use of the Service

2.1 General. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon payment of your Membership Fee, and during the term of this Agreement, Profile grants you a non-exclusive and non-transferable right to access and use the Service and the Journey App in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, a specific Plan, and any Documentation made available to you by Profile. The Service has been designed by Profile with the goal of assisting people with weight loss and weight management. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT INDIVIDUAL RESULTS VARY. You also understand and agree that Profile may, but is not obligated to, modify the Service, Plan, the Journey App, and the Documentation for a variety of reasons, including for consistency with the most recent weight loss and weight management research. Your specific Weight Loss Goal will be modified to a lower agreed upon weight loss percentage if your weight loss would drive your weight below a healthy weight range. Profile makes no representations or warranties that you will achieve your weight loss goal.

2.2 Profile Promise. Subject to the below terms and conditions, if you follow your Plan, you will lose at least 20 pounds, or a lesser agreed upon goal, within 6-months on Profile Premium or Community Coaching Memberships or you'll get your money back (the “Profile Promise”). The Profile Promise is subject to the following terms and conditions: (1) you must attend a minimum of 20 Appointments; (2) you must track nutritional intake in the Profile Journey App 5 out 7 days a week or 71% of the time; (3) you must read the Profile Plan session recaps sent in Journey App and execute and track the weekly goals set between you and the Profile coach 3 out 4 weeks out of the month or 75% of the time (4) you must weigh in on your Profile Smart Body Scale provided by Profile and sync the data to the Profile Journey App at least once per week; (5) you must purchase Profile Foods according to your Personalized Meal Plan; and (6) you must comply with this Agreement and all dietary and activity recommendations provided to you by Profile and your Profile Coach(es). The Profile Promise is null and void if: (a) Your membership is prematurely canceled, suspended, or frozen prior to 6-months on the Profile Plan (b) it is not appropriate or healthy for you to lose twenty pounds of your body weight or the lesser agreed upon goal (your body weight must be in the healthy BMI range); or (c) you have or develop a health or medical condition that prevents you from losing twenty pounds of your body weight or the lesser goal, or the health or medical condition makes it inappropriate for you to do so. You will be responsible for the cost of all Profile Foods associated with following your Plan even if you have paid for a Membership that includes Profile Foods (i.e., bundled Memberships); Profile will not pay the cost of your Profile Foods or accessories in any event.  Once you’ve lost 20 pounds of your body weight or the lessor agreed upon goal, the Promise is fulfilled.  You must put forth a good faith effort to fulfill the Profile Promise.

2.3 Profile Coaches. As part of the Plan and Service, Profile will provide you with access to Profile Coaches, who will consult with you virtually or in person. You agree to work with your Profile Coaches in good faith solely with respect to the Service, and you will not seek consultation from your Profile Coaches for any other purpose. Unless instructed otherwise by Profile, you agree to conduct your sessions with Profile Coaches alone, with no observers, and you will not record any such session in any way.

2.4 Profile Precise. Profile Precise is a genetic test that uses a cheek swab to collect a DNA sample to determine nutrition-related markers. You agree Profile may use the results of the test to provide you with general nutritional advice that may be used with your Plan. You agree and give consent to Profile, its third party contractors, successors and assignees to perform genetic services on the DNA extracted from the saliva sample you provide. You confirm that you are above the age of majority in the jurisdiction in which you reside and that you have voluntarily given your informed consent to have your saliva samples tested for nutrition-related genetic markers. Your use of Profile Precise is voluntary.

The physical risks of the saliva test are minimal and related to inserting the swab sample collection tool into your mouth and wiping the inside of your check. Waiting for and receiving your results may present certain psychological risks or create anxiety for you. You may have emotional reactions to learning the results of the test. You may experience anxiety about sharing the results of your test with other people, including your family, who may have similar genetic markers. Therefore, you may want to meet with or discuss the Profile Precise test with your healthcare provider before deciding to participate.

There are possible economic risks of genetic testing that may affect your ability to obtain life, long-term care, or disability insurance. Your insurer may request information about the test results or ask if you have had a genetic test.

You agree and understand:

  • the nature and purpose of the Profile Precise test
  • the effectiveness and limitations of the test
  • the possible consequences of submitting the DNA sample for testing
  • the risks and benefits of the Profile Precise test and its results
  • you may experience anxiety from going through the testing process and/or receiving the results.
  • to consult with your healthcare provider if you have any questions about the test and/or legal advisor about any insurance or other legal implications of taking the test
  • the possible uses and disclosures of your de-identified data by Profile, including for future commercial or research purposes, or other uses determined exclusively by Profile
  • that genetic testing is optional and is not required to participate in the Service
  • you have been able to ask your Profile representative about all of your questions regarding this test and your questions were satisfactorily answered.

Once you submit your saliva sample, it is shipped to Profile’s third-party contractor laboratory, where the sample is irreversibly processed and it cannot be returned to you. The test results are reported to and analyzed by Profile. Any genetic information taken from your saliva sample remains your information but is subject to the rights that are expressed in this Agreement and Profile’s Privacy Statement. Profile’s third-party contractor laboratory is measuring the copy number variation of genetic markers associated with the production of the enzyme amylase by your body. Profile interprets this information to provide general nutrition advice related to macronutrient intake. Future genetic research may change how your DNA is interpreted by Profile. Profile Precise is currently not available in Maryland, New Jersey, and New York. In addition, Profile and/or select Franchisees may not, in its or their sole discretion, offer Profile Precise at your Site or may impose additional requirements for you to obtain Profile Precise. Profile does not guaranty that Profile Precise is available at every Site.

2.5 Your Health. PROFILE AND ITS FRANCHISEES ARE NOT MEDICAL ORGANIZATIONS. YOU SHOULD NOT CONSIDER THE SERVICE OR THE DOCUMENTATION AS MEDICAL ADVICE OF ANY KIND, AND THE SERVICE IS NOT INTENDED TO TREAT ANY ILLNESS, DISEASE, OR ADVERSE MEDICAL CONDITION. Profile and its Franchisees are not licensed medical care providers, and we have no expertise in diagnosing, examining, or treating medical conditions of any kind, or in determining the effect of any specific exercise on a medical condition. You are urged and advised to seek the advice of a physician before beginning your use of the Service, and to get periodic medical check-ups as recommended by your primary care physician. The information and reports generated by Profile or its Franchisees should not be interpreted as a substitute for physician consultation, evaluation, or treatment. By using the Service, you represent that you are healthy enough to begin a weight loss regimen that includes dieting and exercise. You represent that you are not pregnant, nursing, or underweight (with a BMI of <18.5). You represent that you have not been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, phenylketonuria (PKU), cancer, kidney disease, liver disease, or heart disease. You represent that you have not been diagnosed with or treated for an eating or exercise disorder in the last 6 months. If you are currently under the care of a health care professional or are living with a chronic health care condition, you represent that you have obtained the express approval from a health care professional to receive the Service before beginning. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something suggested to you through the Journey App or if you have been told by Profile or Franchisee staff or any Profile Coach.

2.6 Profile Precise Testing Limitations. Profile Precise is informational and educational use only. No medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment is provided with regard to any Profile Service, including Profile Precise, and is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The genetic information reported has not been clinically validated. Profile’s third-party contractor laboratory may not be able to process your sample and the analysis may result in errors or inaccurate results. The laboratory may not be able to process your sample if your saliva sample does not contain enough DNA volume, you do not provide enough saliva, or the results do not meet the requisite quality and accuracy standards of Profile’s third party contract laboratory. If the laboratory processing fails because of any of these reasons, the Client has one of two options: (1) Profile will process the same saliva sample without any additional charges to the Client. If the second attempt fails, Profile will offer to ship another kit to the Client to collect a second saliva sample at no charge; or (2) the Client may elect a full refund of the amount paid to Profile for Profile Precise testing. Despite established standards for the processing of saliva samples, a small fraction of data processed during the laboratory process may not be capable of interpretation or may be incorrect (“Errors”). Clients are not entitled to refunds arising from Errors.

You agree not to (i) select, register, or attempt to register, or use a user name of another person with the intention of impersonating that person; (ii) use a user name of anyone else without authorization; (iii) use a user name in violation of the intellectual property rights of any person; or (iv) use a user name that Profile considers in its sole discretion to be offensive.
