In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement are invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the enforceability of the remaining provisions shall be unimpaired.
27. Force Majeure.
Neither Party shall be in default of its failures to perform any obligation under this Agreement if such failure is caused solely by supervening conditions beyond that party's reasonable control, including acts of God, civil commotion, war, strikes, labour disputes, thirty party Internet service interruptions or slowdowns, vandalism or "hacker" attacks, acts of terrorism or governmental demands or requirements.

SCHEDULE B - Business Associate and Information Manager Agreement
This Business Associate and Information Manager Agreement ("Schedule B") effective as of at the date of subscribing ("Effective Date"), is made by and between 741512 NB Inc., operating as Clinexa.co, organized and existing under the laws of New Brunswick, with its registered office at 26 Valley Street, Saint John, New Brunswick, E2J 2M9 ("741512 NB Inc." or "Clinexa") and an individual or single entity (You, the "Customer"). Neopric Inc., as owner and operator of the Software, also agrees to be bound by this Schedule B, and 741512 NB Inc. and Neopric Inc. are each responsible for its obligations.
This Schedule B is the written agreement required where a trustee or custodian retains an information manager or agent, including under section 25 of The Personal Health Information Act (Manitoba). If it conflicts with any other part of this Agreement regarding PHI, this Schedule B prevails.
1. Purpose
This Schedule B ensures that 741512 NB Inc. complies with all applicable privacy laws and regulations, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), The Personal Health Information Act (Manitoba) (PHIA), the Personal Health Information Protection Act (Ontario) (PHIPA), the Personal Health Information Privacy and Access Act (New Brunswick), and other similar legislation duly enacted by any other provincial legislature in Canada, in the handling of Personal Health Information (PHI) provided by Customer.
2. Definitions
Personal Health Information (PHI): Any personal health information as defined in the applicable provincial law, and any health information, including demographic data and health numbers, relating to the past, present, or future physical or mental health or condition of an identifiable individual, that Customer provides through the Software.
Business Associate: 741512 NB Inc. provides a web-based software service for use in the medical/legal field and will act as an "Agent", "Information Manager", "Affiliate", or "Service Provider" within the meanings ascribed to those terms under provincial privacy laws governing the use, collection, and disclosure of PHI, or in such other similar capacity but in all cases will have the same duties and obligations in respect of Customer's PHI as are imposed upon "Agents", "Information Managers", "Affiliates", or "Service Providers", as the case may be in the province in which Customer carries on business. In Manitoba, 741512 NB Inc. will comply with PHIA as if it were the trustee, as required by PHIA subsection 25(4).
Customer: a healthcare provider, trustee or custodian subject to privacy and security regulations governing PHI.
Privacy Breach: the theft or loss of PHI, or any access, use, disclosure, destruction or alteration of PHI that is not permitted by applicable law or this Schedule B.
3. Responsibilities of 741512 NB Inc.
Permitted Uses and Disclosures: 741512 NB Inc. agrees to access and use PHI solely for the purpose of providing the Software services to Customer, and for no other purposes. It will use only the minimum amount of PHI necessary for that purpose. It will not sell PHI, use it for marketing, or use it to train artificial intelligence models.
Custody: PHI remains in the custody and under the control of Customer. 741512 NB Inc. acts only on Customer's behalf and instructions.
Safeguards: 741512 NB Inc. will implement administrative, physical, and technical safeguards that reasonably protect the confidentiality, security, accuracy, integrity, and availability of the PHI that it handles on behalf of the Customer, taking into account the sensitivity of the PHI.
Data Security Measures: 741512 NB Inc. agrees to encrypt PHI in transit and at rest, maintain unique user accounts and secure access controls, implement threat detection systems, and maintain a built-in audit log recording each user's access to PHI, available to Customer within its account.
Personnel: 741512 NB Inc. will limit access to PHI to its personnel who need it to provide or support the services. Each such person will sign a confidentiality pledge and receive privacy training before being given access.
Requests from Individuals: If 741512 NB Inc. receives a request from an individual to access or correct their PHI, it will refer the request to Customer within two (2) business days and assist Customer in responding.
4. Data Location and Retention
Storage: PHI is stored on cloud infrastructure located in Canada. No PHI is stored outside Canada.
AI Processing: Artificial intelligence processing may be performed transiently on servers outside Canada, configured with zero data retention, such that PHI is not stored by the AI provider and is not used to train artificial intelligence models. Customer agrees to update its notice of information practices to disclose such processing where required before its first use of the Software. On request, 741512 NB Inc. may offer Canada-only processing for Customer's account.
Retention: Uploaded files and generated outputs are automatically deleted thirty (30) days after upload. Customer may delete any case, or its entire account, at any time from within the Software. All destruction of PHI will be carried out in a manner that protects the privacy of the individuals concerned.
5. Breach Notification
Notice of Breach: 741512 NB Inc. agrees to notify the Customer of any actual or suspected Privacy Breach within twenty-four (24) hours of becoming aware of it. The notice will describe what happened and, as far as known, the PHI and individuals affected.
