{"document":{"title":"MyHeritage.txt","text":"MyHeritage - Terms and Conditions\nThese Terms and Conditions were last updated on April 18, 2020.\nIf you have not reviewed it since that date, please do so now.\nWelcome to MyHeritage\nMyHeritage is an online service that allows members to create family sites and profiles in order to build and print their family trees, share family photos, keep in touch with family members, perform DNA testing, receive genetic genealogy and genetic health analysis, participate in scientific research and research their family history with advanced research tools (the \"Service\").\nThe Service is owned and operated by MyHeritage Ltd. (hereafter \"MyHeritage\", 'we', 'our' or 'us'). '\nYou' or 'your' means an adult user, over the age of 13, of the Service (in some countries the minimum age is 14, see Section \"Underage Users\" below).\nAny use of the Service and/or the MyHeritage Website (the \"Website\") is subject to compliance with the Terms and Conditions listed herein.\nPlease read them carefully, because by using the Website you agree to be bound by them and to enter into an agreement with us based on such Terms and Conditions (this \"Agreement\"), whether or not you register as a member in MyHeritage (\"Member\").\nThe MyHeritage website (the \"Website\") is part of a group of websites that we own and operate (the \"MyHeritage Website Group\") which also includes MyHeritage.*\nwebsites on other top-level domains and Geni.com.\nThis Agreement applies to any use of the Service, including but not limited to: a) submitting samples for DNA extraction and processing, b) uploading a digital version of your genetic information exported from other DNA services, c) receiving and interacting with genetic genealogy analysis provided by the Website (the \"DNA Genealogy Services\"); d) receiving, viewing and interacting with genetic health analysis (the “DNA Health Services”); and e) downloading your raw DNA data (collectively, the \"DNA Services\").\nUnless explicitly indicated otherwise, the Service includes the DNA Services for all purposes of this Agreement.\nIf you do not agree with any provision in this Agreement, do not use the Service and the Website.\nWe reserve the right to modify any provision hereof from time to time, in our sole discretion, and such modification shall be effective immediately upon its posting on the Website.\nYou agree to be bound to any changes to this Agreement if you continue to use the Service after any such modification is posted.\nThe Service\nMyHeritage Family Sites\nMyHeritage allows you, as a Member, to create and post content into MyHeritage family sites, and enables you to control and limit access to such content by other users on the MyHeritage Website Group.\nIn view of the nature of the Service, please select carefully the information you wish to post on MyHeritage family sites and refrain from posting any illegal or unsuitable content.\nWe will not edit or monitor user-provided content, but we reserve the right to remove any user provided content which comes to our attention and which, in our sole discretion, breaches this Agreement.\nBy way of illustration, and without limitation, you shall refrain from posting, transmitting, sending or otherwise making available, through or in connection with the Service, the following:\n    Photographs and other content which include nudity, sexuality, pornography, indecency, vulgarity, violence and/or any offensive subject matter.\n    Any content which may violate the privacy or breach the confidentiality of other people, including members in your family tree.\nOur Service allows you to define specific privacy settings regarding individual names, dates, email addresses and other personally identifying information.\nPlease make use of these abilities and respect the privacy of others.\n    Any photos or email addresses of living individuals (other than your own), if done without their consent.\n    Any information relating to minors or underage children, which identifies them, their personal details or their address and other means of communication with them, without the direct consent of their parent or guardian.\n    Any content which does not belong to you or which you do not have a right to use.\n    Any content that impairs and/or infringes the property or other rights of others, including copyrights and trademarks.\nWe are extremely sensitive to the copyright and other intellectual property rights of others.\nBe aware that content, including photographs, even if submitted to a site of which you are a Member, belongs to its creator or submitter and you should not reproduce it without permission of the owner.\n    Any content which is obscene, indecent, defamatory, derogatory, fraudulent, degrading, abusive, hateful, false, misleading, inaccurate, untrue, malicious, offensive, harassing, threatening, or incites racial, religious or ethnic hatred.\n    Any content that causes anyone alarm, annoyance, anxiety, embarrassment, offence or distress.\n    Any content that could prejudice any active legal proceedings of which you are aware; is unlawful or promotes or teaches unlawful activity.\n    Any computer virus or other malicious or harmful code.\n    Any content that violates our Privacy Policy.\nYou must not:\n    Impersonate anyone else or otherwise misrepresent your identity or status.\n    Hold yourself out as an employee or representative of MyHeritage Ltd. or any of its affiliates.\n    Stalk or harass or make persistent or regular contact with other users without their consent or encouragement or after any consent or encouragement has, expressly or impliedly, been withdrawn.\n    Send commercial emails, spam emails, unsolicited bulk mail or any other email which may harass its recipient(s).\n    Use our Website or Service in a way that might damage our name or reputation.\n    Restrict or inhibit any other person from using the Website or Service.\n    Exploit for any commercial purposes any portion of, use of or access to the Website.\n    Perform any activity that requires any form of payment from Members and/or users of the family sites or any other area of MyHeritage.\n    Advertise or offer to sell products or services, except where this is expressly permitted by us and by law (in which case you must comply with any terms relating to such activities that we specify).\n    Include links on our Website or Service to third party websites outside the MyHeritage Website Group.\nExcept with our express prior written consent, you must not copy or store electronically all or part of our Website or its contents, or make available, distribute, sell or offer to sell all or any part of the Website or its contents, or systematically download content and data from or through the Website to make or populate another database for any purpose.\nScraping, crawling and/or harvesting of any data and any pages from the Website without our explicit prior written consent is strictly prohibited.\nExcept with our express prior written consent, reselling any MyHeritage products (including, without limitation MyHeritage DNA kits) is strictly prohibited.\nBuying a MyHeritage DNA kit and then selling it to someone else is strictly prohibited.\nAny activity in the framework of the Website, that is brought to our attention and is in violation of applicable law, as determined in our sole discretion, will be brought to the attention of the proper authorities.\nA MyHeritage family site is a place where members share their content with other members.\nThis may create conflicts between members.\nThe following guidelines apply to all MyHeritage members, including you:\n    Members must obtain permission from living family members before uploading information about them to a family site, and if they still do so without their permission, it is the responsibility of the family site's owner – the Member who created the family site.\n    If we receive a complaint about information published on a family site about a person or close relative of a person, against this person's wish, we reserve the right to delete that information from the family site even if the owner of the family site wants to keep the information there.\nIn case of a dispute with the Member who owns the site, we are allowed to ban this Member and remove him/her from the Service at our discretion.\nIf the Member is a subscriber, the Member's subscription payment will be refunded to this Member by us.\n    The right of a relative to request not to be listed in a family site is stronger than the right of the owner of the site to list that relative in a family site.\n    If you encounter personal information in a family site or elsewhere on the Website that was entered by another member that you want removed, email a request to privacy@myheritage.com and give us up to one week to process this request.\nWe will attempt to first resolve the dispute amicably by contacting the owner of the family site who has entered the information or is responsible for it, and give them time to respond.\nWe will cooperate with you to make sure that the information you want to remove is eventually removed from the Website.\nIf necessary, we will also help you with removing such information from the index of search engines like Google, but note that removal of information from Google and other search engines is outside our control and is not under our responsibility.\n    Copying information or photos from other family sites without the permission of their owners is prohibited and members who do this are at risk of being banned from the Service at the discretion of MyHeritage.\nCopying information or photos from external websites and services and publishing it into family sites requires the prior permission of the owners of the content.\n    Inviting other members to your family site, or accepting their membership requests, will give these members access to the family site and they might copy parts of it.\nIf that happens, it is the responsibility of the owner of the family site, or of the Member who made the invitation or has accepted the membership request, and not of MyHeritage.\nIf an invitation was made in error or a membership request was accepted in error, the owner of the family site can remove that member from the family site to revoke his or her access to it.\n    Family sites are open by default to visitors but details of living family members in the tree, except for their last name, are censored.\nFor maximum privacy, site owners can turn their sites private, turn the photo albums private and turn off Smart Matching™ on their family trees.\nSmart Matching™ is a service that makes discoveries by finding matches of your family tree with other family trees, but this benefit comes with a privacy drawback; that owners of other family sites can see parts of your family tree that were matched with theirs (except living people in your tree who are not found in their tree, who will remain censored).\nIf this is a concern to you, you must turn off Smart Matching™ by clicking on the \"My privacy\" link in the account drop down menu at the top right corner of the Website, clicking on the \"Content\" tab below the name of your tree, unchecking the \"Enable Smart Matching™\" options and clicking the \"Save\" button.\nIf you leave Smart Matching™ enabled for your family tree, you are taking responsibility that other members may see parts of your family tree.\nWe reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject, refuse to post or remove any content posted by you and/or any family site, or to restrict, suspend, or terminate your access to all or any part of the Website and/or Service at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice, and without any liability, financial or otherwise.\nWe also reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject, refuse to post or remove any family site at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice, and without any liability, financial or otherwise, if we deem that the family site is in breach of this Agreement in any way.\nOnce you upload, post or publish content to the Website, including family trees and photos, it may become accessible to all persons accessing the Website or any websites in the MyHeritage Website Group, depending on permission settings in your control.\nBased on your permission settings, other Website users may be able to view, copy, download, store, edit, change or delete certain content that you post.\nYou agree that other users may access your family site and may add to, subtract from or otherwise amend your family site.\nInformation that you post will be displayed and is available for others to search, view or hear.\nYou may delete content that you previously posted on the Website; however, if others have downloaded or otherwise stored copies of the content, it may still be publicly viewable.\nOther users may contact you through our Website regarding the content you upload.\nWe may send you an email notification when you have a new message on our Website.\nYou can change your email settings in the \"My Account\" area of the Website if you prefer not to receive such notification.\nDNA Services\nThis Section applies to the DNA Services, including, among others, the ordering of a MyHeritage DNA kit, submission of DNA samples to us, the acceptable use of such samples, the DNA markers, nucleotides, variations or haplogroups (\"DNA Results\") resulting therefrom or submitted by you to the Website, the outputs of the genetic genealogy analysis of the DNA Results which include the DNA Matches and Ethnicity Estimates (together, the \"DNA Genealogy Reports\") and the outputs of the genetic health analysis of the DNA Results which include the Genetic Risk Reports and the Carrier Status Reports (collectively, the “DNA Health Reports”, and together with the DNA Genealogy Reports, the “DNA Reports”) and your rights, obligations and restrictions regarding your use of the DNA Services.\nPlease note that in order to use the DNA Services, you will need to register as a Member on the Website, however you are not required to become a subscriber to use the DNA Services.\nYour use of the DNA Services is subject to this Agreement and the MyHeritage Privacy Policy.\nThe DNA Genealogy Services are currently not available to residents of the following locations: Israel, Iran, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, North Korea, Lebanon and Syria (\"Restricted Locations for DNA Genealogy\").\nThe DNA Health Services are currently not available to residents of the following locations: Israel, France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the states of Rhode Island, New Jersey and New York, as well as Iran, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, North Korea, Lebanon and Syria (\"Restricted Locations for DNA Health\").\nBy authorizing the DNA Services, submitting a DNA sample for testing or uploading or transferring DNA Results to the Website, you represent that you are eighteen (18) years of age or older and are not a resident of the Restricted Locations for DNA Genealogy and/or the Restricted Locations for DNA Health, respectively, that are listed above, and you signify that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement and to the collection and use of your DNA sample and DNA Results and the calculation and provisioning by us of the applicable DNA Reports.\nIn addition, you represent that any DNA sample you provide and any information that you transfer or upload that associates an individual with his/her DNA Results are either your DNA or, solely with respect to the use of the DNA Genealogy Services, the DNA of a person for whom you are a legal guardian or have obtained legal authorization to provide their DNA to us.\nNotwithstanding the foregoing, using the DNA Services for law enforcement purposes, forensic examinations, criminal investigations, \"cold case\" investigations, identification of unknown deceased people, location of relatives of deceased people using cadaver DNA, and/or all similar purposes, is strictly prohibited, unless a court order is obtained.\nIt is our policy to resist law enforcement inquiries to protect the privacy of our customers.\nAll provisions herein apply both to DNA Results produced using the MyHeritage DNA testing services and DNA shared through direct upload to the Website, data transfer from another DNA testing service, or any other means by which you provide your DNA information to us.\nBy submitting DNA samples to MyHeritage, you give permission to MyHeritage to directly or indirectly extract the DNA from the samples, perform genetic analysis on the DNA using methods available now and developed in the future, to disclose the results of the tests performed by way of providing the respective DNA Reports to you and, solely with respect to the DNA Genealogy Reports, also to others that you authorize, and to store the samples for additional genetic testing (i.e., we may be able to provide more detailed and accurate DNA Results, DNA Reports and other outputs by additional genetic testing in the future, subject to your explicit approval) and to allow you to download the DNA Results, in each and every case subject to and in accordance with this Agreement and with the Privacy Policy.\nYou acknowledge that in the event that you download your DNA Results: 1) such download will create a copy that is not protected by MyHeritage’s security and privacy settings; 2) such download and the storage of your DNA Results after you have downloaded it, shall all be made at your own risk; and 3) MyHeritage will not have any control over the downloaded DNA Results and shall not be liable to you or to any third party in connection with such download and/or storage.\nWe do not claim any ownership rights in the DNA samples, the DNA Results and/or the genetic genealogy and genetic health information in the DNA Reports.\nAny genetic genealogy and genetic health information derived from the DNA samples, the DNA Results and/or appears in the DNA Reports continues to belong to the person from whom the DNA was collected, subject only to the rights granted to MyHeritage in this Agreement.\nIn addition, you understand that by providing DNA samples and/or DNA Results to us, you acquire no rights in any research or commercial products that may be developed by us that may relate to your DNA.\nWe will, if requested by you, destroy the DNA sample provided by you.\nTo request destruction of your DNA sample, please contact us using the contact details indicated in the \"Contact Us\" Section below.\nIn addition, you can, at any time, delete your DNA Results and DNA Reports from the Website by using the delete function from the \"Manage DNA kits\" page on the Website, or request MyHeritage Customer Support to do this for you.\nBy submitting DNA samples to us and/or DNA Results to the Website, you grant us a royalty-free, world-wide license to use your DNA samples, the DNA Results and the resulting DNA Reports, and, solely for purposes of the DNA Genealogy Services, any DNA samples and/or DNA Results you submit for any person from whom you obtained legal authorization as described in this Section and the resulting DNA Reports, to the minimum extent necessary to allow us to provide the Service to you.\nThe license you grant to us is not perpetual, and it is revocable as you are able at any time to delete your DNA Results and DNA Reports permanently from the Website and to have us destroy your DNA samples.\nYou hereby release us from any and all claims, liens, demands, actions or suits in connection with the DNA testing, DNA samples, DNA Results and/or DNA Reports, including, without limitation, errors, omissions, claims for defamation, invasion of privacy, right of publicity, emotional distress or economic loss.\nThis section continues even if you stop using the Website or the DNA Services.\nYou confirm that the submission of a DNA sample by you is not subject to any export ban or restriction in the country in which you reside.\nYou also agree that you have the authority, under the laws of the state or jurisdiction in which you reside, to provide the representations in this Agreement and you explicitly waive any laws or regulations relating to DNA samples, DNA Results and/or DNA Reports and their storage from the state or jurisdiction in which you reside.\nYou agree that the DNA samples will be stored in the United States as provided in this Agreement.\nWe reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject, block, refuse to post, or remove any DNA Reports and/or DNA Results submitted by you or provided by us following processing of your DNA sample, or to restrict, suspend, or terminate this Agreement or your access to all or any part of the DNA Services at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice, and without liability, except that we will refund you in case you have purchased a MyHeritage DNA kit from us and we have exercised this right.\nEligibility\nUse of and membership in the DNA Services is void where prohibited.\nYou may use the DNA Services only if you are eighteen (18) years of age or older and are legally capable of forming a binding contract with us.\nDo not use the DNA Services if your use violates any applicable local, state or national law or regulation in your jurisdiction of residence.\nBy authorizing the DNA Services, you represent and warrant that (a) the DNA sample and/or the DNA Results submitted by you belong to you or, solely with respect to the DNA Genealogy Services, someone for whom you have legal authorization to share the sample and/or DNA Results; (b) you are eighteen (18) years of age or older; and (c) your use of the DNA Services does not violate any applicable law or regulation.\nIf any minor uses the DNA Genealogy Services, the parent or guardian of that minor will be held responsible for the minor's actions.\nIf, solely for purposes of the DNA Genealogy Services, you submit a DNA sample of a minor you must be the minor's parent or legal guardian and provide written confirmation of such in a format acceptable to us if requested prior to DNA Results and DNA Genealogy Reports for the relevant minor being provided.\nIf you have reason to believe you have an active infectious disease, condition or disorder please do not return your sample to us until such time as that disease condition or disorder is no longer infectious or has been cured.\nYour DNA sample may not be processed, your DNA Results and DNA Reports may be deleted and your membership may be terminated without notice, if we believe this Agreement or any portion of it have been violated or contradicted.\nTerm\nThis section applies to the DNA Services currently in use or previously used.\nYou may remove DNA Results associated with your account at any time, for any reason, from the profile into which you or we uploaded them.\nWe may remove your DNA Results and/or DNA Reports and/or terminate your membership at any time, without notice.\nEven after membership is terminated, the proprietary rights set forth in this Agreement will remain in effect.\nNon-commercial Use by Members\nThe DNA Services are for the personal, private and informational use of members only and may not be used in connection with any commercial or research endeavors except those that are specifically endorsed or approved in writing by us.\nIllegal and/or unauthorized use of the DNA Services, including collecting DNA Results and/or DNA Reports, is prohibited.\nWe reserve the right to protect and enforce all rights associated with the DNA Services offered.\nProprietary Rights in Content\na. We do not claim any ownership rights in the DNA samples, the underlying DNA Results or any DNA Results that you submit via the DNA Services, and the genetic genealogy and genetic health information in the DNA Reports.\nAfter submitting DNA Results to the Website or after sending us a DNA sample, you continue to retain all ownership rights in the DNA sample and the applicable DNA Results and genetic genealogy and genetic health information in the DNA Reports and you continue to have the right to use your DNA Results and DNA Reports in any way you choose.\nBy sending us a DNA sample, and/or submitting any DNA Results to the Website, you hereby grant, and you represent and warrant that you have the right to grant, to MyHeritage the right to receive, use, modify, display, and create derivative works of the DNA samples, the applicable DNA Results and the DNA Reports solely on and through the DNA Services for commercial and non-commercial purposes and MyHeritage's (and its successors' and affiliates') business.\nb. The DNA Services contain DNA Results and DNA Reports of users, members, and other licensors.\nExcept for content posted by you, or as expressly permitted by the privacy settings of a user, you may not copy, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, display, or sell any content appearing on or through the Website and/or the DNA Services.\nDNA Samples and DNA Results; DNA Reports\nYou are solely responsible for the DNA sample(s) you send to MyHeritage and for DNA Results you submit through any of the DNA Services and any material or information that you transmit to us, our members and for any interactions with other users.\nMyHeritage does not control or endorse any actions resulting from your participation in the DNA Services and, therefore, MyHeritage specifically disclaims any liability with regard to any actions resulting from your participation in the DNA Services.\nWe make no warranties, express or implied, as to the DNA Results and DNA Reports or to the accuracy, reliability, comprehensiveness, completeness, quality, currency, error-free nature, compatibility, security or fitness for purpose of the Website or the DNA Services or the DNA Reports.\nBy using the DNA Services, you acknowledge that you may learn information you do not anticipate from the DNA Results and from the DNA Reports, which may evoke strong emotions and has the potential to alter your life and worldview.\nYou may discover things about yourself that trouble you and that you may not have the ability to control or change (e.g., your father is not genetically your father, or your ethnicity is not what you thought it is, or surprising facts related to your ancestry), or that you have a higher than average risk of developing an incurable condition like Alzheimer’s disease).\nOnce you obtain this information, the knowledge is irrevocable.\nYou should not assume that any information we may be able to provide to you, whether now or as genetic research advances, will be welcome or positive.\nThese outcomes could have social, legal, or economic implications.\nYou further acknowledge that your use of the DNA Services and receipt of the resulting DNA Reports may have serious implications not only for you, but also for your immediate or other family members, since they share some of your DNA.\nIf you are in any way concerned about any such potential implications, DO NOT USE the DNA Services.\nGenetic information you share with others could be used against your interests and therefore you should be careful about sharing it with others.\nEven if you share genetic information (such as the DNA Results and/or DNA Health Reports) that have no meaning or limited meaning today, that information could have greater meaning in the future as new discoveries are made.\nIn the future, businesses or insurance companies may request such information from you.\nThe Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) was signed into law in the United States in 2008, and some, but not all, states and countries have laws that protect individuals regarding their genetic information.\nYou may want to consult a lawyer to understand the extent of legal protection of your genetic information before you share it with anybody.\nIf you export your MyHeritage DNA Health data and upload it to a third-party service, for health analysis, some genetic information not reported to you on MyHeritage that MyHeritage has not validated may be exposed, and MyHeritage does not take responsibility for such information as the DNA data for some variants may be miscalled.\nExporting DNA data from MyHeritage and subsequently uploading it to a third-party service is solely at your own risk.\nMore about the DNA Health Services\nYou may use the DNA Health Services only if you are eighteen (18) years of age or older.\nHealth Questionnaire\nBefore providing you with the DNA Health Reports, we will collect certain self-reported family health history information from you about you and your family members using a questionnaire (the Health Questionnaire Information and the Health Questionnaire, respectively).\nThe Health Questionnaire Information will allow us to determine your eligibility to some or all of the DNA Health Reports (generation and/or release of which in rare cases may be denied) and, if you are eligible to some or all of the DNA Health Reports, such Health Questionnaire Information may also allow us to properly facilitate the provision and communication of the DNA Health Reports to you.\nFor these purposes, you must complete the Health Questionnaire in full.\nBefore providing information about others, you must obtain any necessary consent from anyone about whom you want to provide Health Questionnaire Information.\nYour Health Questionnaire Information will be kept and used by us in accordance with our Privacy Policy.\nNew questions and topics may be added to the Health Questionnaire if new information is required in order to update your DNA Health Reports or generate new reports.\nIn such a case, we may send you an email in this regard.\nYou may delete or edit your Health Questionnaire Information by contacting our Customer Support.\nFor more information please see the Privacy Policy.\nGenetics is Only Part of the Picture\nThe DNA Health Reports provide genetic risk information based on assessment of specific genetic variants but do not report on your entire genetic profile.\nThe DNA Health Reports do not detect all genetic variants related to a given disease, and the absence of a variant tested does not rule out the presence of other genetic variants that may be related to the disease.\nIn addition, for most diseases, the genes we know about are only responsible for a portion of the overall risk.\nOther factors such as environment and lifestyle may affect the risk of developing a given disease and, depending on the condition, may be more important predictors.\nIf your data indicate that you are not at elevated genetic risk for a disease or condition, you should not feel safe.\nThe opposite is also true; if your data indicate you are at an elevated genetic risk for a disease or condition, it does not mean you will definitively develop such disease or condition.\nAny findings within the DNA Health Reports should be confirmed and supplemented by additional medical and clinical testing and information.\nDo Not Rely Solely on the DNA Health Reports\nThe DNA Health Services are not intended to independently diagnose, prevent or treat a disease or any condition, tell you anything about your current state of health in the absence of medical and clinical information, or be used to make medical decisions, including whether or not you should take a medication or how much of a medication you should take.\nIn addition, you might need to obtain further services from your physician, a genetic counselor, or other healthcare provider, in order to obtain more accurate results regarding the conditions or diseases indicated within your DNA Health Reports.\nThe DNA Health Services do not offer medical advice or care and are not intended to constitute the practice of medicine by MyHeritage or otherwise create a patient-healthcare provider relationship between MyHeritage and you.\nThe DNA Health Services are purely for research, informational and educational purposes only.\nThe use of any information provided as part of the DNA Health Services (including potentially actionable information we may identify for you, based on your DNA Health Reports and scientific literature or research) is solely at your own risk.\nYou should not rely on the DNA Health Reports as a substitute for visits to a doctor or other healthcare professional, professional medical advice, diagnosis, advice or treatment by a personal physician or other qualified healthcare provider who can consider your health in the broader context of medical management.\nIf you have any concerns or questions arising from your DNA Health Reports or questions you may have regarding diagnosis, cure, treatment, mitigation, or prevention of any disease or other medical condition, or impairment or the status of your health and/or otherwise about your health, you should consult your doctor or other healthcare professional.\nGenetic Research is not Comprehensive and Constantly Progresses\nYou should note that many of the genetic discoveries that may come up in the DNA Health Reports have not been clinically validated, and the technology we use (same as used by the research community), to date has not been widely used for clinical testing.\nAlso, because of technical variations in our testing device, some DNA Health Reports or some variations in a specific DNA Health Report may not be available to you.\nThe presented risk per variant might be calculated based on ethnic groups that do not match or are not relevant for your own ethnicity and therefore do not accurately reflect the risk for you.\nIn the future, the scientific community may show previous research to be incomplete or inaccurate and future scientific research may change the interpretation of your DNA Results.\nAs scientific knowledge advances, our DNA Health Reports may change and reflect different results in the future.\nFor example, we might change the set of variations that we consider as part of your genetic predisposition for a specific condition.\nIn addition, we might assign different values or classes to those variations, so variants that are harmful now will be classified as benign in the future and change your DNA Health Report.\nAs another example, we may change the estimated risk level for a certain disease.\nWe may also add conditions or diseases after you receive your DNA Health Reports, beyond those conditions and diseases that were listed on the pre-purchase pages when you ordered the DNA Health Reports.\nOther companies offering a genetic risk test may be detecting different genetic variants for the same disease, so you may get different results using a test from a different company.\nWe might also use different mathematical tools and statistical frameworks to assess the presence of a variation and/or your risk level.\nWe reserve the right to update your DNA Health Reports based on new information, data, or scientific findings.\nWe also reserve the right to notify you, once your DNA Health Report changes.\nSome people may feel anxious about getting genetic health results.\nThis is normal.\nIf you feel very anxious, you should speak to your doctor or other healthcare professional prior to providing your DNA sample for the DNA Health Services.\nWe encourage you to talk to a genetic counselor, a health professional with special training in genetic conditions and/or board-certified clinical medical geneticist prior to providing your DNA sample for the DNA Health Services to learn more so you can make an informed decision about whether DNA testing is right for you.\nYou should note that DNA Results and/or DNA Health Reports that you choose to share with your physician or other healthcare provider may become part of your medical record and through that route be accessible to other healthcare providers and/or insurance companies in the future.\nIf you are asked by an insurance company whether you have learned about health conditions through genetic information and you do not disclose this to them, this may be considered as fraud.\nWhile our laboratory is licensed in Texas as a clinical laboratory, not all jurisdictions require our DNA Health Services to be subject to license.\nTherefore, we are not universally licensed by all state, federal, or international authorities for genetic testing conducted for health and disease-related purposes.\nIn addition, there are certain jurisdictions in which we do not offer our DNA Health Services because we do not have required licenses.\nFor processing orders from customers residing in the United States, we require a physician order to process and release DNA Health Reports to the customers.\nWe work with an independent network of fully licensed, board certified physicians and genetic counselors , PWNHealth, LLC (www.pwnhealth.com) (\"PWNHealth\"), to provide physician oversight of the MyHeritage DNA Health test.\nFor the purpose of PWNHealth's review by a physician and genetic counselor, your personal information, including the Health Questionnaire Information, the DNA Results and the DNA Health Reports will be confidentially shared with PWNHealth.\nThe fee for the PWNHealth service is collected by MyHeritage on behalf of PWNHealth and included in the total price of the DNA Health Services.\nThe MyHeritage DNA Health test has not been cleared or approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).\nThe FDA does not require this test to go through premarket FDA review.\nYou agree to indemnify and hold MyHeritage, its subsidiaries, employees, directors, agents, licensors, managers, affiliates and any third party acting on our behalf, and their respective officers, agents, partners and employees, harmless from any loss, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made due to or arising out of your use of or access to the DNA Services and any implications of such use.\nUse of Data\nMembers or those who otherwise use the Website and/or the DNA Genealogy Services may use another member's DNA Genealogy Reports only to the extent allowed by such member's privacy settings and solely limited to the DNA Genealogy Reports designated as available to other members.\nIf you collect and/or publicize any DNA Results and/or DNA Reports in a different website or application or otherwise use it outside the DNA Services, please note that the DNA Results and/or DNA Reports will be used in accordance with the terms and policies of these other websites and/or applications and this use is solely at your own risk.\nPrivacy and Security\nFor details regarding our privacy practices, please see our Privacy Policy\nLimitation on Liability\nWithout derogating from the \"Limitation on Liability\"

and Payments\nSubscriptions\nMyHeritage offers payment-based subscription plans in addition to the basic free site plan, which include: Premium family site plan, PremiumPlus family site plan, Data

subscription plans and purchases are currently not available to residents of the following locations: Iran, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, North Korea, Lebanon and Syria.\nAll physical goods and deliverable items purchased from us are made pursuant to a shipment contract.\nThis means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier.\n1.\nOpting Out of Renewal\nYou may opt out of renewing any of your subscriptions by logging in and utilizing the My Purchases page (choose the relevant plan, click \"View details\" and then click \"Stop annual renewal\") or by calling MyHeritage at +1-844-994-1888 (toll-free number in the USA; see Contact Us page for additional phone numbers in other countries).\nIf you do not let us know that you want to discontinue your subscription at least one day prior to the end of the current subscription period, the payment for the next renewal period of the subscription will be made.\n2.\nFree Trial\nFree trial subscriptions will be billed only at the end of the free trial period.\nYou may cancel a free trial at any time during the free trial period from the My Purchases page and incur no charge.\nOn that page, choose \"Data subscriptions\" or \"Complete subscriptions\", press \"View details\" and then choose \"Stop free trial now\" for the chosen subscription.\nTo start a free trial, your payment details will be required.\nBy providing your payment details and accepting the Terms and Conditions, you agree that MyHeritage may automatically begin charging you for the paid subscription after the free trial ends on a recurring annual basis.\nVisa cardholders will be notified by email 7 days before a free trial ends.\n3.\nRefund Policy\nMyHeritage values the satisfaction of its customers and offers a thirty (30) day money back guarantee.\nIf you are not satisfied with your purchased plan you may request a full refund by contacting Customer Support within thirty (30) days of the initial purchase date of the subscription.\nThe money back guarantee applies to MyHeritage subscriptions (Premium, PremiumPlus, Data or Complete), and not to shipped products such as MyHeritage DNA kits and family tree posters.\nAll refunds will be reimbursed to the original credit card with which the purchase was made.\nPlease allow a reasonable time for the refund to be charged to your account.\n4.\nPrices Subject to Change\nPrices may be changed by MyHeritage from time to time.\nFor the current prices, see price list.\nPrices may be subject to additional taxes and customs charges, depending on the country in which you reside.\nFollowing each payment, MyHeritage will send you an email with the details of the purchase and the amount charged.\n​5.\nRenewal of subscriptions with Price Lock\n​Subscriptions that were purchased with a Price Lock guarantee (\"Price-Locked Subscriptions\") will renew at the same price at which they were originally purchased​. Changes to subscription prices will not affect the ​renewal ​price of ​Price-Locked ​Subscriptions.\n​If you have a ​Price-​Locked ​Subscription, ​then as long as you keep it, ​you will always be charged the same locked price at renewal anniversaries​. ​If you discontinue a Price-Locked Subscription by stopping its renewal, and allow it to expire, you are not guaranteed to be able to purchase it again at the same price in the future.​\nPayment for DNA Services\nIf you are not already registered with MyHeritage you will be required to register with MyHeritage when you proceed to order a DNA testing kit.\nRegistration is free.\nYou will need to retain your login details in order to access your DNA Results and DNA Reports on the Website.\n1.\nReplacements\nIn the event that you experience any of the following, please contact us using the contact details shown in Section \"Contact Us\" below and we will mail you a new replacement DNA testing kit to the address we have on our records at the time of purchase, at no cost:\n    The DNA testing kit has not reached your shipping destination within thirty (30) days of purchase.\n    The DNA testing kit has not reached our lab within thirty (30) days from the day you sent it.\n    You received a damaged DNA testing kit.\n2.\nCancellations and Refunds\nIf you choose to cancel the order of the DNA testing kit prior to the DNA sample being received at our lab, you are entitled to a refund.\nTo cancel and claim your refund, you will need to contact us using the contact details shown in Section \"Contact Us\" below.\nThe refund will include the DNA testing kit cost, but not the shipping cost, customs fees or import taxes.\nAll refunds will be reimbursed to the original credit card with which the purchase was made.\nPlease allow a reasonable time for the refund to be charged to your account.\nWe will not issue refunds for DNA testing kits that are already being processed in our lab or for which processing has already been completed.\nOnce a DNA sample has been sent to our lab and checked in, the full cost of the DNA testing kit is non-refundable.\nNote that scientific procedures may sometimes be delayed for a variety of reasons.\nTesting times may vary depending on lab volume and biological sample quality.\nExpected result dates are therefore predictions, and not a guarantee of delivery.\n3.\nDNA Re-test Following Lab Processing Failure\nThe laboratory may not be able to process your sample, and the laboratory process may result in errors.\nIf testing your DNA sample fails, we will mail you a new DNA testing kit at no additional cost so you can provide us with a new DNA sample.\nThe DNA testing kit will be sent to the address we have on our records at the time of purchase.\nEven for processing that meets our high standards, a small, unknown fraction of the data generated during the laboratory process may be un-interpretable or incorrect (“Lab Errors”).\nAs this possibility is known in advance, users are not entitled to refunds where these Lab Errors occur.\n4.\nPrices Subject to Change\nPrices may be changed by MyHeritage at any time.\nDisclaimers, Limitation on Liability and Indemnity\nDisclaimers\na.

you are updated as to any changes.\nWhenever this Agreement is modified in substance, the label updated will be displayed prominently next to the link \"Service Terms\" that leads to this Agreement,

Users\nExcept with respect to DNA Services (see in the \"Eligibility\" Sub-Section under the Section \"DNA Services\" above) we require individuals to be at least 13 years old before they can create an account on MyHeritage.\nIn some jurisdictions, the age limit may be higher.\nProviding false information to create an account is always a violation of this Agreement.\nThis includes accounts registered on the behalf of under 13 year old children by older parties.\nIf your underage child (child under the age of 13) has created an account on MyHeritage, you can show them how to delete their account by having them log into their account, select \"Account settings\" from the Account menu in the top-right corner, then click \"Delete my account\".\nIf you would like to report an account registered for an underage child to us, please email the details to us at privacy@myheritage.com.\nWe will promptly delete the account of any child under the age of 13 that is reported to us.\nIn most jurisdictions, the Service (except for the DNA Services) requires individuals to be at least 13 years old before they can create an account.\nWe strive to create a global service with consistent standards for everyone, but we also strive to respect local laws.\nIn observance of laws in Spain, Israel and South Korea, we require individuals living there to be at least 14 years old before they can create an account and use the Service (but not the DNA Services).\nIf your underage child (child under the age of 14) living in Spain, Israel or South Korea has created an account on MyHeritage, you can show them how to delete their account by having them log into their account, select \"Account settings\" from the Account menu in the top-right corner, then click \"Delete my account\".\nIf you would like to report an account registered for an underage child living in Spain, Israel or South Korea to us, please email the details to us at privacy@myheritage.com.\nWe will promptly delete the account of any child under the age of 14 in Spain, Israel or South Korea that is reported to us.\n4.\nMinors\nExcept with respect to DNA Services (see in the \"Eligibility\" Sub-Section under the Section \"DNA Services\" above), minors (people under the age of 18) can use the Service provided that they are not underage (see section on Underage Users above), and provided that they obtain the consent of their parent or guardian for their use of the Service (\"Consent\").\nMinors must not use the Service without Consent until they reach the age of 18 or above.\nIn some countries, the Service may display a special mandatory parent/guardian consent form when a user determined to be a minor signs up or logs into the Service.\nIn the consent form, a parent or guardian is required to enter their full name and email address and to check boxes that declare that they are a parent or guardian of the minor, accept this Agreement and the privacy policy of the Service, and take responsibility for the use of the Service by the minor.\nIf the consent form is displayed, the Service cannot be used until it is filled out.\nIf the user is not a Minor, the form allows for the user to declare this and enter a correct year of birth.\nWhen the consent form is filled out and submitted, the Service will document the details of the Consent but will not make any further use of the details of the parent or guardian filled in the consent form.\nDisputes and Governing Law\nThis Agreement and any dispute regarding the Service shall be exclusively governed by the laws of the State of Israel, without regard to conflict of law provisions, and you agree that any legal proceeding about the execution, performance and/or enforcement of this Agreement shall be brought exclusively to the courts located in Tel Aviv, Israel.\nYou agree that the Service shall be deemed passive and will not give rise to personal jurisdiction over MyHeritage, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Israel.\nIn the unlikely event that we have not been able to resolve a dispute we have with you after attempting to do so informally, all claims must be brought in each party's individual capacity and not as a representative plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.\nYou agree that, by entering into this Agreement, each of you and us waives the right to participate in a class action claim.\nEntire Agreement\nThis Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy, the DNA Informed Consent (the \"Informed Consent\") and any other legal notices or terms published by MyHeritage on the Website (as applicable), shall constitute the entire agreement between you and MyHeritage concerning the Website and the Service.\nOur Failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement and/or the Informed Consent shall not be deemed as a waiver of such right or provision.\nThe section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.\nThis Agreement and/or the Informed Consent operate to the fullest extent permissible by law.\nIf any provision of this Agreement and/or the Informed Consent is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision is deemed severable from this Agreement and/or the Informed Consent and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.\nThis Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by us without restriction.\nAny attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void.\nIf we provide you with a translation of the English language version of this Agreement, the English language version of this Agreement will prevail if there is any conflict.\nContact Us\nYou can contact us if you have any concerns or questions about this Agreement, the Website, the Service or any related topic, by writing to the address below or visit our Help Center.\nCustomer Support\nMyHeritage Ltd.\nPO Box 50, Terminal Park, Or Yehuda 6037606, Israel\nhttps://www.myheritage.com\n","paragraphs":null,"sentences":["MyHeritage -

members before uploading information about them to a family site, and if they still do so without their permission, it is the responsibility of the family site's owner – the Member who created the family site.","    If we receive a complaint about information published on a family site about a person or close relative of a person, against this person's wish, we reserve the right to delete that information from the family site even if the owner of the family site wants to keep the information there.","In case of a dispute with the Member who owns the site, we are allowed to ban this Member and remove him/her from the Service at our discretion.","If the Member is a subscriber, the Member's subscription payment will be refunded to this Member by us.","    The right of a relative to request not to be listed in a family site is stronger than the right of the owner of the site to list that relative in a family site.","    If you encounter personal information in a family site or elsewhere on the Website that was entered by another member that you want removed, email a request to privacy@myheritage.com and give us up to one week to process this request.","We will attempt to first resolve the dispute amicably by contacting the owner of the family site who has entered the information or is responsible for it, and give them time to respond.","We will cooperate with you to make sure that the information you want to remove is eventually removed from the Website.","If necessary, we will also help you with removing such information from the index of search engines like Google, but note that removal of information from Google and other search engines is outside our control and is not under our responsibility.","    Copying information or photos from other family sites without the permission of their owners is prohibited and members who do this are at risk of being banned from the Service at the discretion of MyHeritage.","Copying information or photos from external websites and services and publishing it into family sites requires the prior permission of the owners of the content.","    Inviting other members to your family site, or accepting their membership requests, will give these members access to the family site and they might copy parts of it.","If that happens, it is the responsibility of the owner of the family site, or of the Member who made the invitation or has accepted the membership request, and not of MyHeritage.","If an invitation was made in error or a membership request was accepted in error, the owner of the family site can remove that member from the family site to revoke his or her access to it.","    Family sites are open by default to visitors but details of living family members in the tree, except for their last name, are censored.","For maximum privacy, site owners can turn their sites private, turn the photo albums private and turn off Smart Matching™ on their family trees.","Smart Matching™ is a service that makes discoveries by finding matches of your family tree with other family trees, but this benefit comes with a privacy drawback; that owners of other family sites can see parts of your family tree that were matched with theirs (except living people in your tree who are not found in their tree, who will remain censored).","If this is a concern to you, you must turn off Smart Matching™ by clicking on the \"My privacy\" link in the account drop down menu at the top right corner of the Website, clicking on the \"Content\" tab below the name of your tree, unchecking the \"Enable Smart Matching™\" options and clicking the \"Save\" button.","If you leave Smart Matching™ enabled for your family tree, you are taking responsibility that other members may see parts of your family tree.","We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject, refuse to post or remove any content posted by you and/or any family site, or to restrict, suspend, or terminate your access to

sole discretion, to reject, refuse to post or remove any family site at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice, and without any liability, financial or otherwise, if we deem that the family site is in breach of this Agreement in any way.","Once you upload, post or publish content to the Website, including family trees and photos, it may become accessible to all persons

health analysis, some genetic information not reported to you on MyHeritage that MyHeritage has not validated may be exposed, and MyHeritage does not take responsibility for such information as the DNA data for some variants may be miscalled.","Exporting DNA data from MyHeritage and subsequently uploading it to a third-party service is solely at your own risk.","More about the DNA Health Services","You may use the DNA Health Services only if you are eighteen (18) years of age or older.","Health Questionnaire","Before providing you with the DNA Health Reports, we will collect certain self-reported family health history information from you about you and your family members using a questionnaire (the Health Questionnaire Information and the Health Questionnaire, respectively).","The Health Questionnaire Information will allow us to determine your eligibility to some or all of the DNA Health Reports (generation and/or release of which in rare cases may be denied) and, if you are eligible to some or all of the DNA Health Reports, such Health Questionnaire Information may also allow us to properly facilitate the provision and communication of the DNA Health Reports to you.","For these purposes, you must complete the Health Questionnaire in full.","Before providing information about others, you must obtain any necessary consent from anyone about whom you want to provide Health Questionnaire Information.","Your Health Questionnaire Information will be kept and used by us in accordance with our Privacy Policy.","New questions and topics may be added to the Health Questionnaire if new information is required in order to update your DNA Health Reports or generate new reports.","In such a case, we may send you an email in this regard.","You may delete or edit your Health Questionnaire Information by contacting our Customer Support.","For more information please see the Privacy Policy.","Genetics is Only Part of the Picture","The DNA Health Reports provide genetic risk information based on assessment of specific genetic variants but do not report on your entire genetic profile.","The DNA Health Reports do not detect all genetic variants related to a given disease, and the absence of a variant tested does not rule out the presence of other genetic variants that may be related to the disease.","In addition, for most diseases, the genes we know about are only responsible for a portion of the overall risk.","Other factors such as environment and lifestyle may affect the risk of developing a given disease and, depending on the condition, may be more important predictors.","If your data indicate that you are not at elevated genetic risk for a disease or condition, you should not feel safe.","The opposite is also true; if your data indicate you are at an elevated genetic risk for a disease or condition, it does not mean you will definitively develop such disease or condition.","Any findings within the DNA Health Reports should be confirmed and supplemented by additional medical and clinical testing and information.","Do Not Rely Solely on the DNA Health Reports","The DNA Health Services are not intended to independently diagnose, prevent or treat a disease or any condition, tell you anything about your current state of health in the absence of medical and clinical information, or be used to make medical decisions, including whether or not you should take a medication or how much of a medication you should take.","In addition, you might need to obtain further services from your physician, a genetic counselor, or other healthcare provider, in order to obtain more accurate results regarding the conditions or diseases indicated within your DNA Health Reports.","The DNA Health Services do not offer medical advice or care and are not intended to constitute the practice of medicine by MyHeritage or otherwise create a patient-healthcare provider relationship between MyHeritage and you.","The DNA Health Services are purely for research, informational and educational purposes only.","The use of any information provided as part of the DNA Health Services (including potentially actionable information we may identify for you, based on your DNA Health Reports and scientific literature or research) is solely at your own risk.","You should not rely on the DNA Health Reports as a substitute for visits to a doctor or other healthcare professional, professional medical advice, diagnosis, advice or treatment by a personal physician or other qualified healthcare provider who can consider your health in the broader context of medical management.","If you have any concerns or questions arising from your DNA Health Reports or questions you may have regarding diagnosis, cure, treatment, mitigation, or prevention of any disease or other medical condition, or impairment or the status of your health and/or otherwise about your health, you should consult your doctor or other healthcare professional.","Genetic Research is not Comprehensive and Constantly Progresses","You should note that many of the genetic discoveries that may come up in the DNA Health Reports have not been clinically validated, and the technology we use (same as used by the research community), to date has not been widely used for clinical testing.","Also, because of technical variations in our testing device, some DNA Health Reports or some variations in a specific DNA Health Report may not be available to you.","The presented risk per variant might be calculated based on ethnic groups that do not match or are not relevant for your own ethnicity and therefore do not accurately reflect the risk for you.","In the future, the scientific community may show previous research to be incomplete or inaccurate and future scientific research may change the interpretation of your DNA Results.","As scientific knowledge advances, our DNA Health Reports may change and reflect different results in the future.","For example, we might change the set of variations that we consider as part of your genetic predisposition for a specific condition.","In addition, we might assign different values or classes to those variations, so variants that are harmful now will be classified as benign in the future and change your DNA Health Report.","As another example, we may change the estimated risk level for a certain disease.","We may also add conditions or diseases after you receive your DNA Health Reports, beyond those conditions and diseases that were listed on the pre-purchase pages when you ordered the DNA Health Reports.","Other companies offering a genetic risk test may be detecting different genetic variants for the same disease, so you may get different results using a test from a different company.","We might also use different mathematical tools and statistical frameworks to assess the presence of a variation and/or your risk level.","We reserve the right to update your DNA Health Reports based on new information, data, or scientific findings.","We also reserve the right to notify you, once your DNA Health Report changes.","Some people may feel anxious about getting genetic health results.","This is normal.","If you feel very anxious, you should speak to your doctor or other healthcare professional prior to providing your DNA sample for the DNA Health Services.","We encourage you to talk to a genetic counselor, a health professional with special training in genetic conditions and/or board-certified clinical medical geneticist prior to providing your DNA sample for the DNA Health Services to learn more so you can make an informed decision about whether DNA testing is right for you.","You should note that DNA Results and/or DNA Health Reports that you choose to share with your physician or other healthcare provider may become part of your medical record and through that route be accessible to other healthcare providers and/or insurance companies in the future.","If you are asked by an insurance company whether you have learned about health conditions through genetic information and you do not disclose this to them, this may be considered as fraud.","While our laboratory is licensed in Texas as a clinical laboratory, not all jurisdictions require our DNA Health Services to be subject to license.","Therefore, we are not universally licensed by all state, federal, or international authorities for genetic testing conducted for health and disease-related purposes.","In addition, there are certain jurisdictions in which we do not offer our DNA Health Services because we do not have required licenses.","For processing orders from customers residing in the United States, we require a physician order to process and release DNA Health Reports to the customers.","We work with an independent network of fully licensed, board certified physicians and genetic counselors , PWNHealth, LLC (www.pwnhealth.com) (\"PWNHealth\"), to provide physician oversight of the MyHeritage DNA Health test.","For the purpose of PWNHealth's review by a physician and genetic counselor, your personal information, including the Health Questionnaire Information, the DNA Results and the DNA Health Reports will be confidentially shared with PWNHealth.","The fee for the PWNHealth service is collected by MyHeritage on behalf of PWNHealth and included in the total price of the DNA Health Services.","The MyHeritage DNA Health test has not been cleared or approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).","The FDA does not require this test to go through premarket FDA review.","You agree to indemnify and hold MyHeritage, its subsidiaries, employees, directors, agents, licensors, managers, affiliates and any third party acting on our behalf, and their respective officers, agents, partners and employees, harmless from any loss, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made due to or arising out of your use of or access to the DNA Services and any implications of such use.","Use of Data","Members or those who otherwise use the Website and/or the DNA Genealogy

provision.","The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.","This Agreement and/or the Informed Consent operate to the fullest extent permissible by law.","If any provision of this Agreement and/or the Informed Consent is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision is deemed severable from this Agreement and/or the Informed Consent and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.","This Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by us without restriction.","Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void.","If we provide you with a translation of the English language version of
