Effective date: 1/1/2023
Welcome to the Taylor community! We’re so glad you’re here, wherever you are in your fertility journey. But first: a couple important things to know.
These Terms of Use (“Terms,” for short) create a legally binding agreement between you (“you”) and Hey-Taylor Pte. Ltd. (doing business as Taylor) as well as its affiliates (together, “Taylor,” “we,” or “us”). These Terms govern your access to and use of all websites and mobile apps owned and controlled by Taylor, including hey-taylor.com, the Taylor mobile application together with its various functionalities (the “Platforms”) as well as the services, products, and programs we offer (together with the Sites and their content, our “Services”). By using or accessing our Services, you confirm your agreement to be bound by these Terms, so be sure to read them carefully. If you don’t feel comfortable with them, it’s probably best not to use our Services. Otherwise, we’ll assume you understand and agree to them. Of course, you can always reach out any time in case of questions – we’re here to help.
1. OUR SERVICES
At Taylor, we’re obsessed with improving fertility and family-building journeys, both now and in the future.
We offer several services, including:
(I) Concierge services
We’re here to provide support, education, community, and more. We are your concierge, to help make it all easier to navigate. We’ll help you get information to the right place at the right time, we’ll help with coordination and logistics, and if you’d like, we can help you communicate with your doctor and others in connection with our Services.
For those who aren’t ready to start the egg freezing process - and even for those who are - we also provide educational resources about the fertility journey in general, and other ways to make your fertility journey more accessible, affordable, and fun.
In the usage of our Concierge services, there are some key concepts we want to make sure you understand: While we help connect and coordinate with healthcare providers, and provide information of them, our Services are not meant to be a substitute for medical, tax, financial, or legal advice from your chosen fertility clinic. We don’t endorse or guarantee the quality of any third parties you connect with through Taylor. If you’re looking for medical advice or need medical help or treatment, please make sure to talk with your chosen fertility doctor.
We’ll also ask you to complete an authorization allowing the clinic to share details with us about your egg freezing cycle - which helps us make the process smoother for you.
II) Video Consultation/Telehealth Services
Taylor may offer various healthcare/telehealth services on the Platforms including medical consultations, mental wellness consultations, and other health and wellness services (“Healthcare Services”).
If you are using the video consultation functionality, you acknowledge and agree that:
(III) Marketplace on the Platforms
Taylor’s Marketplace on the Platforms offers various healthcare-related products and services (including health packages such as fertility screening, home-based screening or injection) for purchase (“Healthcare Products”). Healthcare Products on the Platforms may be sold by third party vendors or Taylor (“Marketplace Providers”). If you are using the Marketplace functionality on any of the Platforms , the following terms shall apply:
Placing of Orders
Prices of Healthcare Products
Risk and property of the Healthcare Products
2. ACCOUNT INFORMATION AND SECURITY
To access certain Services, you’ll need to create an account by providing your name, email address, and other information (together, “Account Information”). It’s important to provide us accurate, up-to-date, and complete Account Information (see our Privacy Policyfor details on how to keep it updated). You’ll be responsible for protecting your username and password, and for all activities under your account. You’ll need to immediately notify us of any unauthorized account use, or if any of your Account Information becomes inaccurate, incomplete, or otherwise false or misleading. Please be careful when accessing your account from a public or shared computer, as we aren’t responsible for any loss or damage if you don’t protect your account or information. You’ll also be required to fully cooperate with us to investigate any suspected unlawful, fraudulent, or improper activity.
You agree that:
3. TERMINATION
You can terminate these Terms any time by permanently stopping your access and use of the Services. We can terminate your use any time by notifying you at the address or email you provided, or otherwise notifying you through the Services. We’re not required to provide notice or a reason before terminating your use. If we terminate your use because you have breached these Terms or any other agreements with us, you won’t be entitled to any refunds. To protect the integrity of our Services, we may, at any time in our sole discretion, block access from certain IP addresses. Note: even after termination, certain Terms will remain in effect such that any rights and obligations that should logically still apply after that date will survive.
4. LICENSE AND USE OF THE SERVICES

18. GENERAL
This Agreement, the Privacy Policy and the documents in it, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between you and Taylor relating to the Platforms and you have not entered into this Agreement in reliance upon any representation, warranty or undertaking of Taylor which is not set out in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall however operate to limit or exclude liability for fraud.
We may from time to time update these terms of this Agreement by posting amendments at the Platforms. By your continuing use of the Platforms after any such amendment, you agree to be bound by this Agreement as so amended.
The illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement under the law of any jurisdiction shall not affect its legality, validity or enforceability under the law of any other jurisdiction nor the legality, validity or enforceability of any other provision.
No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay on its part in exercising, any right or remedy under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
We may seek immediate injunctive relief if we make a good faith determination that a breach or non-performance is such that a temporary restraining order or other immediate injunctive relief is an appropriate or adequate remedy.
Taylor may give notice by means of a general notice on the Platforms, or by electronic mail to your email address, by SMS to your mobile phone number, or by written communication sent by registered mail to your address. Your contact details for such notices shall be based on your details in Taylor’s records. You may only give notice to us in writing sent to our designated address or e-mail address.
The provisions of the Agreement are severable, and if any provision, or any portion thereof, is determined by a competent court or tribunal to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason, any remaining portion of that provision, and all other provisions of the Agreement, shall remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law in order to give effect to the Parties’ intentions.
We reserve the right to delegate or sub-contract the performance of any of our Platforms Functions or Services or to any related company, service provider, subcontractor and/or agent on such terms as we may deem appropriate.
You may not assign your rights or transfer your obligations under this Agreement without our prior written consent but we may assign our rights or transfer our obligations under this Agreement to any affiliate or third party at our sole discretion.
Save for the related companies of Taylor, partners of Taylor and as expressly provided in this Agreement including without limitation as referred to in Clause 10, a person who is not a party to this Agreement shall have no right to enforce or enjoy the benefit of any term of this Agreement under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 2001. Notwithstanding any term of this Agreement, the consent of any person who is not a party to this Agreement is not required to rescind or vary this Agreement at any time.
In the event that this Agreement is executed or translated in any language other than English, to the extent allowed under law, the English language version of this Agreement shall govern and shall take precedence over the foreign language version.
19. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
