Information about these Terms

These Terms together with our Privacy Statement and Website Terms form a legal contract between you, the ‘User’ and Us and apply between You and Us in relation to any use which you make of the Site. Where we refer to ‘Site’ we refer to either website, app, both or either.

You confirm that you request immediate performance of the Services contract and acknowledge that you will lose your right to cancel within certain conditions as the Services contract is being performed.

We may revise these Inuvi User Terms from time to time in order to reflect (i) any changes in relevant laws or regulatory requirements (ii) any changes to the Site and/or the Services that are necessary to make as a result of changes to the way we receive services from our third party suppliers or (iii) any modified or additional Services we may cease to make available or make available and which you agree to receive.

Geographical Restrictions

Inuvi’s Services are available through the Site/App, but the blood service is not available in locations outside the United Kingdom. Users access our Site and the Services on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

Becoming A User

When you register with the Inuvi service, you will be required to complete an online form and accept our User Terms, Website Terms and Privacy Policy.

Once you have registered, you will receive an order confirmation email from us which will confirm your order and a welcome email from us which will confirm the process and your collection method. This email will also prompt you to login to your online account and complete your health profile.

As part of your becoming a User you will provide us with certain personal information when prompted to do so, in order to enable your account to be created. We will use that information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Information about the Services

Health Assessment

The Inuvi Health Assessment includes an online health survey and blood testing depending on the product.
We conduct our blood testing and phlebotomy services using external third party services.
Our Services including the blood tests are not a diagnostic tool. Your Account dashboard will provide a graphical representation of any outcomes obtained and enable you to access recommendations made. If your test results indicate to our doctor that further investigation is required you will be guided to your general practitioner or existing healthcare provider(s). Further, due to the volatile nature of blood, blood results may sometimes need to be repeated. Our Services do not replace your existing healthcare provider(s) but can be used as a supplement to them.
As a User, and provided you remain a User, you will be enabled via your account and its personal profile dashboard (“Account”) to engage with our online service and undertake a single general health assessment based on the health details you provide and your supply of a blood sample for testing, and to receive guidance from our clinical team comprising of doctors and dietitians based on the results of the health assessment provided (“Services”) which will be presented to you via your Account dashboard. Our aim is to help you to be more proactive about your health by helping you to identify potential health risks. Our blood tests and guidance are intended to promote making small proactive changes in your life to help minimise future risk.

Blood Testing Process

There are 2 collection methods to have your blood taken. These are a homekit and phlebotomist visit (either at home or office).

If you choose a homekit, we will post the Inuvi test kit to you at the address you provide at registration on the next working day after we have accepted your order. This test kit is for you to collect your own blood sample in accordance with the blood collection protocols provided, and contains instructions as to how to submit your blood sample along with a request form. Complete your personal details on the form provided entitled “request form” – and also on the blood sample(s). Blood samples that are not fully and correctly labelled cannot be processed.
The validity of the home kit will expire after 30 days, so you are required to collect and post your blood sample well within that period. You acknowledge that test outcomes depend on the quality of the blood sample provided by you so you agree to adhere to the blood collection protocols provided. If you do not follow these protocols a defective or partial test result may occur. You may, at our discretion, be given the opportunity of retesting if a partial result is reported by the applicable laboratory, and similarly if your blood sample has failed completely.

Blood samples may fail in the instance that the blood spoils before reaching the lab and therefore cannot be analysed. This may be either a complete failure (where no results can be obtained) or a partial failure, where only some results cannot be obtained. This may happen if the sample takes too long to arrive at the lab or has not been collected according to the instructions. It is our policy to process your report if on clinical review, the impact of the blood failures on the Health Report is deemed to be within acceptable parameters so as not to impact the quality of the Health Report and the advice and recommendations provided to you. Where there are blood test failures that do impact the quality of the final Health Report, you will be advised and asked if you would like to complete a second test at your own cost.
Although rare, there is the potential for some minor side effects and risks when collecting a blood sample using a self-collected home kit which you should be aware of. Individuals may experience slight discomfort or pain at the site of the puncture, which can lead to slight bruising, sensitivity or numbness for a short period after the blood is collected. If you experience any prolonged symptoms that concern you (eg. bruising not subsiding within 48 hours or increasing pain at the site of the puncture), we’d recommend that you contact your GP, urgent care centre, or contact 111.
It is also possible you feel light headed or experience fainting following the procedure. If you have experienced such symptoms in the past we recommend ensuring someone is with you when you use the kit, and that you complete the procedure sitting down.
Following the advice provided in the home kit instructions carefully and making sure you maintain good hand hygiene will reduce the risk of contamination, infection and further adverse effects. It is also important to dispose safely of all used lancets and equipment after the blood collection to prevent accidental injury and to disinfect any areas of blood spillage. If you have any questions prior to your blood collection, please contact the Inuvi team at support@getlivesmart.com for further advice and support.

If you choose a phlebotomist, please note that if you cancel or change your appointment 48 hours or less prior to your appointment time, your booking fee will be non refundable and non transferable, and you may be liable for cancellation charges. In order to rebook your appointment, you will be required to pay a new fee to Inuvi in order to rebook your phlebotomist visit.

If you choose a phlebotomist home visit, the phlebotomist will bring the necessary equipment to collect and post your blood sample to the appointment.
Serious adverse effects during venipuncture (taking a blood sample via a needle) are rare, however during the blood collection, individuals may experience fainting, dizziness or increased pain at the site of the collection, which is temporary. If you have experienced such symptoms in the past, please inform your phlebotomist in advance and they will provide additional advice or adjustments such as taking the blood whilst lying down. Following the procedure, complications are rare but can include bruising at the puncture site (hematoma), nerve injury and arterial puncture. If you experience any prolonged symptoms that concern you, (eg. bruising not subsiding within 48 hours or increasing pain at the site of the puncture), we recommend you contact your GP, urgent care centre, or contact 111.
We anticipate that the results of the blood sample analysis will be available within 5-10 working days from the date received by the applicable laboratory depending on the assessment type, following which we will notify you by email that your Account dashboard has been updated accordingly.

You acknowledge and agree that we bear no responsibility of any kind if you choose to have your blood collected in a manner not specified within your Inuvi order. For example: If you purchase a homekit, and later decide to have your GP take your blood venously - this is at your own risk and no kit to do so will be provided by Inuvi unless we receive a signed Inuvi waiver from you.

How to cancel your products or services

You may delete your Account and end your ongoing User registration at any time, for any reason by sending an email to support@getlivesmart.com
You will have no right to cancel the Services contract if you have submitted your blood sample for testing and we have made available your Health Assessment results via your Account dashboard within 14 days of the day after we have accepted your request to order the Health Assessment (by emailing you accordingly), and we have therefore fully performed the Services contract as it relates to your first Health Assessment order. This provision will apply in a similar manner to each subsequent re-test that you request and order we accept.
If (i) you cancel the Services contract by emailing us at support@getlivesmart.com with your written confirmation of cancellation within 14 days of the day after we have accepted your request to order the Health Assessment (by emailing you accordingly), and (ii) you have not submitted your blood sample for testing via a self-test home kit or a venous sample taken by a phlebotomist, we will refund the charge less 15% to cover the cost of the test kit (which should be disposed of) and carriage within 14 days from when we receive your cancellation. This provision will apply in a similar manner to each subsequent re-test/further Health Assessment that you request and order we accept.
Apart from your cancellation rights above, if you inform us that the test kit received is damaged or defective, we shall send you a replacement, or, at our sole discretion, refund you the charge. This provision will apply in a similar manner to each subsequent re-test Health Assessment that you request and order we accept.
