The Way We Use Information:
We use the information you provide about yourself when placing an

MEMBER’S AGREEMENT
On behalf of yourself and your dependents, if applicable, the
following are the terms and conditions of membership.
By submitting your enrollment request form, you acknowledge that you
have read (on your own behalf and on behalf of your enrolled
dependents) the following terms and conditions:
1. PLAN DESCRIPTION:
Each Member is entitled to receive discounts on specified services
when using a participating provider (“Provider”) as set forth on the
DentaCard website Provider List. Members are entitled to receive
certain dental services from Providers at predetermined rates and
for a percentage discount off the Provider’s normal retail prices
for such dental services. The dental provider listings on DentaCard
are provided directly from each dental Plan or Program, and the
respective dental Plan or Program provides DentaCard with updates on
a monthly basis. Every effort has been made to ensure that only
participating active providers are listed. We strongly recommend
that you confirm that a provider is currently participating before
you receive any services from that provider.
Other terms and conditions, the dental services eligible for
discounts, and the discounted fees for the dental services included
are listed in the Members Home Page and are subject to change,
modification or substitution by the Member’s Plan or Program as
updated by DentaCard from time to time, and Members shall have
access either through the website or by phone to receive updates of
any such change, modification or substitution. Fees for Services
vary by region, provider and specialty. In order to receive dental
services at the discounted rate, a Member must present his/her
Membership ID card to the Provider before dental services are
rendered. Members must pay the Provider directly at the time of
Service unless otherwise agreed upon between Provider and Member.
If a Member wishes to confirm whether a Plan or Program discount is
available for a particular dental service, or wishes to confirm the
current fee for a particular dental service, he/she should first
contact the Provider directly, and if any further assistance is
necessary, a Member Service Representative at the toll-free number
located above and/or on the Membership ID card. See refund and
cancelation policy for additional information pertaining to
providers who do not offer discounts or who no longer participate
with the plan.
2. MEMBERSHIP TERM:
Once the initial fee for Membership in the Plan or Program
(“Membership Fee”) and any enrollment, processing or other fee is
paid and received, a Member will be entitled to all discounted
dental services for the time period (“Membership Term”) that the
Member selects at the time of purchase. The Member will receive a
Plan or Program activation notice with such activation commencing
within 72 hours of the purchase and remaining in force as long as
Member continues to pay required Membership Fees and otherwise
complies with the terms of this Agreement. Members may select from
Membership Terms offered at the time of activation which may include
monthly or annual options. Member may change the Membership Term by
calling Member Services before the new Membership Term at the number
located on the Membership ID card.
3. AUTOMATIC RENEWAL OF MEMBERSHIP TERM:
YOUR MEMBERSHIP WILL NOT BE AUTOMATICALLY RENEWED.
4. CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY:
If a Member wishes to cancel and/or terminate his/her Membership,
the Member may cancel their Membership by returning their membership
card, or by written consent to DentaCard. Any sign up fees will not
be refunded.
Any cancellation of Membership in the Plan or Program will not
affect any dental services or discounts received by a canceling
Member before the effective date of the cancellation.
5. COMPLAINT PROCEDURE:
Any complaint regarding Plan or Program Membership should be
directed to Member Services at the toll-free number on your ID card
or in writing to the address shown above.
6. MEMBERSHIP PAYMENT/BILLING:
Unless payment is made by check (other than a direct debit), payment
of the initial Membership Fee and/or any renewal Membership Fee will
be made automatically by a charge against the Member’s credit card
or by a debit to the Member’s checking account (depending on the
payment option authorized by the Member) for the full amount of the
Membership Fee for the Membership Term. Members who chose to pay
Membership Fees by a direct charge against the Member’s Credit card
or by a direct debit to the Member’s checking account statement may
not receive notice from DentaCard of a subscription payment due,
rather the Member will be notified of the billing on his/her credit
card or checking account statement. Each Member hereby authorizes
DentaCard to bill and receive payment for the Membership Fee as set
forth in the Agreement. DentaCard reserves the right to increase the
Membership Fee for a future Membership Term, in which case the
Member will be notified of the increased Membership Fee, which will
be effective upon renewal of the Program Membership.
Checks returned as unpaid (NSF) will be assessed a $25.00 service
charge. Past due accounts that are not brought current within 15
days of the e-mail notice are subject to suspension and possible
account termination.
Unless you are otherwise advised in advance by DentaCard, in the
event that your initial membership order is paid in the form of an
electronic payment (credit card or electronic check for the
withdrawal of funds from your checking account). Payment options are
limited to the following: credit card, electronic check withdrawal,
or paper check or money order sent regular U.S. Mail. In
order for your membership to continue without interruption, your
renewal payment must be received two (2) weeks prior to the
expiration date identified in your order confirmation. In all
events, it is the responsibility of the member to ensure that
DentaCard has received payment for membership renewal two (2) weeks
prior to the expiration date identified in the order confirmation.
DentaCard is not responsible and assumes no liability to any member
for any member's failure to provide DentaCard with current payment
information for membership renewal. See refund policy for more
information.
7. MEMBER ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS:
Membership in the Plan or Program and or Member’s rights or duties
under this Agreement may not be assigned or delegated without the
prior express written consent of DentaCard. Member agrees that
he/she will use his/her Plan or Program Membership only for his/her
personal benefit or for the benefit of his/her Family Members (if
Family Program is elected). “Family Members” are defined by the
specific Plan or Program chosen by the Member. A Member’s violation
of this Paragraph may, at the discretion of DentaCard, result in
immediate termination of the Plan or Program Membership. DentaCard
bears no responsibility for the payment of or contribution to any
use, sales or other tax that may be imposed on the dental services
by any federal, state or other taxing authority. Payment of such
taxes will remain the sole responsibility of the Member or the
Provider of the dental services, as applicable. Member is
responsible for paying Providers and/or vendors for all dental
services rendered unless otherwise agreed upon by Member and
Provider or vendor. DentaCard in no way is responsible for the
dental services provided by a Provider or vendor. The Program is not
insurance and it may not reduce deductibles, co-payments or other
out-of-pocket expenses for dental services that are covered by
insurance.
Member’s Plan or Program provides Member access to a network of
participating dentists who are independent practicing dentists.
Participating providers are independent contractors in private
practice and are neither employees nor agents of DentaCard and/or
its parents, subsidiaries or affiliates (" DentaCard"). The
availability of any particular provider cannot be guaranteed, and
provider network composition is subject to change without notice.
DentaCard does not provide medical, dental or any other treatment
and is not responsible for outcomes. All medical, dental and/or
other health care is the responsibility of the treating provider, in
consultation with the Member. Your selection of the provider is also
the responsibility of the Member and is not based on any
representations by DentaCard.
The dentists and providers participating in the respective Plans
and/or Programs have agreed to make certain services and supplies
available to Members on a "Reduced Fee Service" basis. The term
"Reduced Fee Service" means a service that is available to a Member
at a discount from fees normally charged by the provider and for
which the Member is solely financially responsible. Member
understands that all payments to providers are due and payable at
the time of service, unless another payment arrangement is mutually
agreed upon between the Member and the treating provider. Members
may be subject to the treating provider's late payment and other
office policies.
In order to access Reduced Fee Service rates, the Member must
present his/her Program ID card to the provider's office at the time
of his/her appointment. In the event any of the terms and conditions
hereof are violated by Member, Member’s participation in the Plan or
Program may be terminated immediately.
8. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES:
DentaCard IS NOT A MERCHANT,
MANUFACTURER, OR A PROVIDER OF THE DENTAL SERVICES.
DentaCard DOES NOT GIVE ANY WARRANTY,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO DESCRIPTION, QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, PRODUCTIVENESS, OR ANY OTHER
MATTER, FOR ANY SERVICES OR MERCHANDISE PURCHASED OR RECEIVED BY A
MEMBER FROM A PROVIDER OR VENDOR THROUGH HIS/HER MEMBERSHIP IN THE
PLAN OR PROGRAM. MEMBER SHOULD NOT RELY ON
DentaCard’S SKILL OR JUDGEMENT IN SELECTING A PROVIDER OR
VENDOR FOR THE SERVICES AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS. IN THE EVENT ANY
PRODUCT OR SERVICE PURCHASED OR RECEIVED BY A MEMBER IS CANCELLED,
MODIFIED, DEFECTIVE, OR OTHERWISE UNSATISFACTORY TO THE MEMBER, THE
MEMBER WILL LOOK SOLELY TO THE PROVIDER, SELLER, MERCHANT, VENDOR OR
MANUFACTURER OF THE PRODUCT OR DENTAL SERVICE FOR ANY REPAIR,
EXCHANGE, REFUND OR SATISFACTION OF CLAIM.
9. GENERAL RELEASE:
Each Member, for himself/herself, and on behalf of any Family Member
who uses the services under the Plan or Program Membership
(“Membership Participant”), hereby forever releases, acquits and
discharges each of DentaCard and its employees, officers, directors,
agents and affiliates from any and all liabilities, claims, demands,
actions and causes of action that such Member, Membership
Participant or Member’s legal representative(s) may have by reason
of any damage or personal injury sustained as a result of or during
the course of the use of any dental service. The sole recourse
available to a Member, Membership Participant or Member’s legal
representative(s) against DentaCard will be cancellation of the
Program Membership as provided in Paragraph 4.
10. VALIDITY AND ENFORCEABILITY:
The validity or unenforceability of any term of this Agreement will
in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other term of
this Agreement.

laws of the State of Ohio regardless of any application or
principles regarding conflicts of laws.
