Terms of Service
Revised 1/31/2026
Note: This document applies to online services. For in-clinic services, see Clinic Terms of Services.
Introduction
Birdie Management LLC and its affiliates (collectively, “Birdie,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) own and operate the website and related platforms through which the Services are provided (the “Website”). The Website and all related offerings are referred to together as the “Services.” In these Terms of Service, “you” and “your” refer to any individual who accesses or uses the Services.
These Terms of Service explain your rights and obligations when using the Services. Your access to and use of the Services are governed by these Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, and all applicable laws and regulations. Certain features of the Services may also be subject to additional terms, which you agree to review and follow when using those features.
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY, AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.
By accessing or using the Services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you may not use the Services. These Terms of Service may be updated from time to time as described herein.
Arbitration Notice and Class Action Waiver
This Agreement includes provisions that limit Birdie Management LLC’s liability and require that disputes between you and Birdie Management LLC be resolved through final and binding arbitration on an individual basis, rather than through a lawsuit in court. This means that (i) you waive your right to have disputes decided by a judge or jury (except as expressly stated in Section 16), and (ii) you waive your ability to participate in any class, collective, or representative action or proceeding.
1. Birdie’s Role and Your Relationship With Birdie
Birdie Management LLC (“Birdie”) provides a technology platform that facilitates communication and coordination with independent, licensed healthcare providers and pharmacy partners. Birdie does not practice medicine and does not provide medical care. No physician–patient relationship is created between you and Birdie or any of its employees, contractors, or representatives. All medical services are provided solely by independent physicians licensed in the state in which you are located.
The Services are not appropriate for all conditions. Do not use the Services for emergencies or crisis situations. If you believe you are experiencing a medical or mental health emergency, call 911 or seek immediate in-person care. Do not disregard or delay professional medical advice based on information obtained through the Services. Birdie is not responsible for the acts or omissions of any Provider or user.
The Services may include general health and wellness information, connections to licensed physicians, access to mail-order pharmacy services, telecommunications tools for provider consultations, administrative support (including scheduling, billing, and payment processing), and record-keeping related to your care—all delivered by independent third parties.
The Services are not medical treatment. All diagnosis and treatment decisions are made solely between you and your Provider. Other than direct communications from your Provider, nothing on the Services constitutes medical advice. Birdie does not recommend or endorse any Provider, medication, test, product, or procedure and makes no guarantees about outcomes, suitability, or effectiveness.
2. Platform Services
Telehealth
Birdie provides a technology platform that enables you to request virtual visits with independent, licensed healthcare professionals (“Providers”) and, when applicable, access mail-order pharmacy services for medications prescribed to you (collectively, the “Services”). The Services are delivered via telehealth, meaning care is provided through electronic communications when you and your Provider are not in the same physical location.
Your Provider will obtain your consent to receive telehealth services at the start of your visit. Telehealth may be used for evaluation, diagnosis, treatment, follow-up, and education, and may include secure electronic sharing of health information, audio/video/text communications, and transmission of data from medical devices or recordings.
Birdie uses technical safeguards designed to protect the confidentiality and integrity of your information; however, no electronic system is completely secure. You acknowledge the inherent risks of electronic transmission and agree that electronic communications and signatures have the same legal effect as written ones.
By accepting these Terms, you consent to receive notices, disclosures, reports, and other communications from Birdie, your Provider, and affiliated healthcare organizations electronically (including through your account or email). You are responsible for reviewing them. You agree that Birdie and the Providers will not be liable for any loss, injury, or claim arising from your failure to read such communications or follow treatment instructions.
Pharmacy
If a Provider issues you a prescription, you may select a pharmacy from Birdie’s contracted pharmacy network (the “Pharmacy Network”) or, where available, a pharmacy of your choice. You authorize Birdie to share your personal, health, and other necessary information with the Pharmacy Network or your selected pharmacy to facilitate prescription fulfillment and delivery.
Birdie offers compounded medications that are prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies. These customized formulations are not reviewed or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and have not been evaluated in clinical studies for safety, effectiveness, or equivalence to FDA-approved drugs. Birdie is not endorsed or affiliated with FDA-approved drugs or their respective manufacturers. The medications offered by Birdie are not designed to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. Any statements about potential benefits, safety, or weight-related outcomes refer solely to the known pharmacologic actions of the active ingredients and do not apply to the specific compounded products offered by Birdie. You agree to these terms and conditions by purchasing or using these products.
Third-Party Links and Features
The Services may include links, tools, or features provided by third parties (“Third-Party Services”). Birdie does not control these Third-Party Services and is not responsible for their content, accuracy, products, or services. Third-Party Services are offered for convenience only. Their inclusion does not mean Birdie endorses them. Your use of any Third-Party Services is at your own risk, and Birdie is not liable for any harm or loss caused by your interaction with them.
If you access the Services through a third-party platform, Birdie is not responsible for that platform’s content or policies. Only these Terms apply to your use of Birdie’s Services. No partnership, agency, or joint venture is created between Birdie and any user or third party. Birdie does not get involved in disputes between users or between users and third parties. If you have a dispute with another user or a third party, you release Birdie and its Related Parties from any claims related to that dispute.
3. Eligibility for Services
United States Residence
Birdie Management LLC operates from within the United States, and the Services are intended only for users located in the United States. We make no representation that the Services, or any content available through them, are appropriate or accessible outside the U.S. Some users or locations may be prohibited from accessing the Services. If you choose to use the Services from outside the United States, you do so at your own risk and are solely responsible for complying with all applicable local laws and regulations, including export and data laws. You acknowledge that you are physically located in the state you identify when using the Services. Providers and pharmacies rely on this information. If it is inaccurate, you agree to indemnify Birdie and its partners for any resulting claims, losses, or damages.
Age
The Services are intended for individuals who are at least 18 years old. By accessing or using the Services, you represent and warrant that the following are true:
• You are 18 years of age or older, or you have the express permission of a parent or legal guardian to use the Services. Certain Services may require you to be 21 years of age or older, and you will be notified if that applies.
• You reside in a state where Birdie offers the applicable Services.
• You agree to be legally bound by and to follow these Terms of Service.
• You understand that meeting these requirements does not guarantee that you will be approved to receive Services. Birdie and its affiliated professional entities may add, remove, or modify eligibility requirements at any time in their sole discretion without prior notice.
To use the Services, you must have compatible devices, reliable internet access, and any required software. Your mobile carrier or internet provider may charge fees for data usage or connectivity, and you are solely responsible for any such charges.
Truthful Information and Security
When you create an account, you agree to provide truthful, accurate, and complete information and to keep your account details current. If you fail to do so, or if Birdie has reason to believe your information is inaccurate, Birdie may suspend or terminate your account and your access to the Services.
You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for logging out of your account at the end of each session. All activity that occurs under your account is your responsibility. You agree to notify Birdie immediately if you become aware of any unauthorized access or security breach involving your account or the Services. Birdie may take any action it considers necessary to protect the integrity and security of the platform. If you believe your password has been compromised, you must change it right away. You may not share your password, allow others to access your account, create more than one account, or use another person’s account. Birdie is not liable for any losses or damages resulting from your failure to comply with this section.
4. Your Financial Responsibility and Payments
Birdie and the Providers do not accept insurance and do not participate in Medicare, Medicaid, or other federal or state healthcare programs. All Services and products are offered on a self-pay basis only, and you are solely responsible for all associated costs. If you are a beneficiary of any government healthcare program, you agree that no claims will be submitted for any Services or products you receive through Birdie.
You agree to pay all applicable fees for medications and other products you request in accordance with the prices and terms shown at checkout. Prices may change at any time at Birdie’s discretion. By providing payment information, you authorize Birdie, its affiliates, and payment processors to charge your selected method for approved transactions.
Amounts paid to Birdie cover the cost of products, including fulfillment and shipping. Birdie does not separately bill for Provider consultations. Except as required by law or stated in a Refund Policy, all sales are final once fulfillment begins. You are responsible for all charges to your account, including unauthorized transactions. Birdie may decline to fulfill any order if payment is not successfully processed. You are responsible for maintaining accurate and current payment information.
Charges are typically processed as a single transaction at purchase. Where offered, you may enroll in automatic refills or recurring billing, which will be clearly disclosed in advance and may be canceled at any time through customer support or your Provider.
5. Treatment Availability and Refunds
You acknowledge that all plans and treatment options depend on product availability, regulatory requirements, and other factors outside of Birdie’s control or the control of its network Providers and pharmacies. You agree to receive email notifications regarding changes to your plan or alternative options and to respond promptly to avoid interruptions in treatment. If a prescribed treatment becomes unavailable, a Birdie-network Provider may recommend an appropriate alternative. You may choose to accept the alternative or request a refund under the terms below.
If Birdie, through its pharmacy partners, cannot fulfill a treatment due to supply limitations, regulatory restrictions, or similar circumstances, you may be eligible for a prorated refund. The refund will be based on the portion of your prepaid plan that has not yet been shipped, less the cost of any product already provided. Instead of a refund, you may choose to receive a credit to your Birdie account to apply toward another eligible and available treatment plan. Approved refunds will generally be processed within 30 days.
By completing a purchase, you confirm that you understand and accept these terms.
6. Communications by Text Message and Email

• You are authorized to use the mobile device provided
• You consent to applicable carrier charges
• You are responsible for all data and message fees
• Birdie and carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages
