Life Remaining Website Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of liferemaining.com (the “Website”), operated by Life Remaining, a California sole proprietorship owned and operated by Paul Benevich (“Life Remaining,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.

Informational Website

The Website provides general information about Life Remaining, end-of-life doula services, caregiving, planning, grief, and related subjects. Website content is educational and informational only. It is not individualized medical, nursing, legal, mental-health, financial, spiritual, hospice, or emergency advice.

Using the Website or submitting a contact form does not create a client relationship or any other professional relationship with Life Remaining. A service relationship begins only if Life Remaining and the client separately agree to it.

Non-Medical Services

Life Remaining provides non-medical support intended to complement—not replace—the work of physicians, nurses, hospice teams, therapists, attorneys, financial professionals, clergy, or other licensed or qualified professionals. Life Remaining does not diagnose or treat illness, prescribe medication, provide clinical care, or make medical or legal decisions for clients.

Always seek appropriate qualified advice for your circumstances. Do not disregard or delay professional care because of information on this Website.

Emergencies

The Website and its contact form are not monitored as emergency services. Do not use them for urgent medical, mental-health, safety, or crisis needs. In an emergency, call 911 or your local emergency number. If you are experiencing a mental-health crisis in the United States, call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Permitted Use

You may use the Website for lawful, personal, and informational purposes. You agree not to:

  • interfere with the Website’s operation or security;
  • attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Website or related systems;
  • submit malicious code, spam, or fraudulent information;
  • use automated means to scrape, copy, or burden the Website without permission;
  • impersonate another person; or
  • use Website content in a way that violates law or another person’s rights.

Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the Website’s text, design, branding, logos, graphics, photographs, articles, and other original content are owned by or licensed to Life Remaining and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

You may view and print reasonable portions for your own noncommercial, informational use. You may not reproduce, publish, distribute, sell, modify, create derivative works from, or commercially exploit Website content without prior written permission, except as allowed by law.

“Life Remaining” and associated branding may not be used in a way that suggests endorsement, affiliation, or authorization without written permission.

Contact Forms and Communications

You agree that information you submit is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you have the right to provide it. Please do not submit confidential medical records or unnecessary sensitive information through the contact form.

We try to respond within the timeframe described on the Website, but response times are not guaranteed. A reply, preliminary conversation, or exchange of information does not obligate either party to enter into a service relationship.

Our handling of personal information is described in the Life Remaining Privacy Policy.

External Links

The Website may link to third-party websites or resources for convenience or education. Life Remaining does not control and is not responsible for their content, availability, security, services, or privacy practices. A link does not necessarily mean that Life Remaining endorses the third party.

Accuracy and Availability

We aim to provide thoughtful and accurate information, but end-of-life services, healthcare programs, eligibility requirements, insurance coverage, laws, and available resources can change and can vary by location and individual circumstances. We do not guarantee that Website content is complete, current, or suitable for every person.

We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Website at any time. We do not guarantee that the Website will always be uninterrupted, error-free, or free from harmful components.

No Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Website and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Nothing in these Terms excludes a warranty or right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Life Remaining and its owner, contractors, and representatives will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Website or reliance on its content.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded. If applicable law does not permit a limitation stated here, that limitation will apply only to the maximum extent permitted.

Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to be responsible for claims, losses, or expenses arising from your unlawful misuse of the Website, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of another person’s rights.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where another jurisdiction’s law must apply. Any dispute will be handled in a court with lawful jurisdiction, subject to any rights that cannot legally be waived.

Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the Website after a revision means that the revised Terms apply to subsequent use.

Severability

If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.
