Welcome to Herbly. These Terms of Use ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“you” or "User"), and Herbly, LLC. ("Herbly," “we,” “us,” or “our”), concerning your access to and use of the Herbly website, including any other media form, media channel, mobile website, or mobile application related, linked, or otherwise connected thereto (collectively, the “Platform”).
By accessing or using our Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all of these Terms. If you do not agree with all of these Terms, then you are expressly prohibited from using the Platform and you must discontinue use immediately.
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS, A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION, AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER THAT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
1. Introduction & Acceptance of Terms
These Terms govern your use of the Herbly Platform. By creating an account, making a purchase, or otherwise using the Platform, you signify your acceptance of these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. You agree that by accessing the Platform, you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all of these Terms and Conditions. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access the Platform for personal, non-commercial use, subject to your compliance with these Terms.
2. Description of Services
Herbly is a technology platform with two primary functions:
- Telehealth Marketplace: The Platform serves as a marketplace to connect clients ("Clients" or "Patients") with independent, licensed practitioners of traditional East Asian medicine ("Practitioners") for the purpose of engaging in online telehealth consultations. Herbly acts as a technology facilitator and is not a party to the relationship or any agreement between a Client and a Practitioner. We do not employ Practitioners, and we do not provide medical services or advice.
- E-commerce Store: The Platform operates an e-commerce store that sells herbal medicines, which are regulated as dietary supplements under the guidelines of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), to the general public in the United States.
3. Important Disclaimers - No Medical Advice
HERBLY, LLC. DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT.
The content on the Platform, including text, graphics, images, and information, and the services provided through the Platform are for informational and transactional purposes only. The Platform is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or another qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on the Herbly Platform.
IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, DIAL 911 OR GO TO THE NEAREST EMERGENCY ROOM IMMEDIATELY.
All medical services are provided by the independent Practitioners. Herbly does not endorse, recommend, or assume any responsibility for any Practitioner, any medical advice or treatment they may provide, or any herbal supplements they may recommend.
4. Practitioner-Patient Relationship

Practitioners are solely responsible for the professional services they provide, including the appropriateness and quality of any advice, diagnosis, or treatment. You acknowledge that Practitioners are independent contractors and not employees or agents of Herbly, LLC.
