1. Introduction and Scope
1.1 Who we are

We are Ahead Health AG ("Ahead," "we," "us," "our"), Uraniastrasse 31, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland. You can reach us at get@aheadhealth.com.

1.2 Our Services

We provide a platform through our website (www.aheadhealth.com) and our Ahead App that allows you to book health screening services, receive scan results, and access health insights. We facilitate connections between you and our medical partners, but we do not provide medical treatment ourselves. Our medical partners are carefully selected to ensure they align with our values of customer-centricity and medical quality.

1.3 Acceptance of Terms

By accessing our website, using our services, creating an account, or booking appointments, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use our services. The Terms and Conditions together with our Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and Ahead Health AG regarding your use of our services.

You acknowledge that these Terms and Conditions constitute a valid and binding agreement electronically entered into, with the same force and effect as agreements physically signed by you.

1.4 Relationship to Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy, available on our website, explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data. The Privacy Policy forms an integral part of these Terms and Conditions.

2. User Eligibility and Account

We facilitate the booking of health screening appointments with our medical partners. By confirming a booking, you authorize us to make arrangements on your behalf with the relevant medical partner.

3.2 Medical Disclaimer

Information provided on our website and app is for general information purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Always consult with qualified healthcare professionals regarding your specific health concerns.

3.3 Role as Intermediary

We act solely as an intermediary between you and our medical partners. The medical services are provided by third-party healthcare professionals, and we are not responsible for the medical care you receive. However, we carefully select our partners to ensure they align with our values of customer-centricity and medical quality.

The relationship between Ahead and its medical partners is that of independent contractors. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship.

A cancellation fee may be charged as specified as deposit during the booking process.

4.3 Medical Partner Cancellations

Our medical partners may need to cancel or reschedule appointments due to unforeseen circumstances. We will notify you promptly and help you reschedule, but we are not liable for any inconvenience or costs resulting from such cancellations.

4.4 Late Arrival

If you arrive late for an appointment, your entitlement to services generally exists only for the remaining scheduled time.
