Terms of Service
Effective Date: July 2, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Impart QMS ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you may not use the Service. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Impart Quality Consulting, LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our").
2. Description of Service
Impart QMS is a cloud-based quality management system designed for IVF and reproductive medicine laboratories. The Service includes quality control tracking, equipment management, maintenance scheduling, compliance reporting, electronic signatures, KPI analysis, and related features as described on our website. The Service is provided on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) basis and is hosted on secure third-party infrastructure.
3. User Accounts
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must immediately notify us at support@impartquality.com of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. We are not liable for any loss arising from unauthorized use of your account. Each user must have their own account; sharing credentials between users is prohibited.
4. Subscription and Payment
Access to Impart QMS requires a paid annual subscription after the Public Beta period. The current subscription fee is $4,500 per laboratory per year, which includes unlimited users, equipment, and QC parameters. Multi-department and network oversight features are included at no additional cost. Subscription fees are billed annually in advance. All fees are non-refundable except as required by applicable law. We reserve the right to change subscription pricing with 30 days' notice. Price changes will take effect at the beginning of your next billing cycle.
5. 2026 Public Beta Program
During the 2026 Public Beta Program, new laboratory accounts are created through a beta registration that must be initiated by, or at the direction of, the laboratory director; the registering signer electronically signs the Public Beta End User Agreement ("Beta EUA") at registration. For beta participants, the Beta EUA supplements these Terms and controls in the event of a conflict. Beta accounts receive full access to the Service at no charge for the duration of the beta. The beta program is open through 2026 and will not be ended without at least sixty (60) days' advance notice, at which point participants may elect a complete export of their data at no cost or continuation under a paid subscription with a 50% discount applied to their first twelve (12) months. The discount is conditioned on active beta participation as defined in the Beta EUA: implementation and active use of the Service, and submission of at least one item of product feedback (bug report, feature request, or general review) per calendar month of participation. Laboratory data is backed up nightly during the beta. While the Service remains under active feature development, beta participation is not intended to replace a laboratory's existing quality management system of record.
6. Data Ownership and Intellectual Property
You retain full ownership of all data you input into the Service, including quality control records, equipment data, personnel information, and any uploaded documents.
