Summary – Cookies, Similar Technologies and Online Behavioral Advertising

We may Process your User Information by placing or reading Cookies and similar
technologies on the Services and Channels. For more information, please see
our Cookie Policy. Certain tracking technologies enable us to assign a unique
identifier to you, and relate information about your use of the Services to
Other Information about you, including your User Information for the purposes of
learning more about you so we can provide you with relevant content and
advertising. We and our partners also use these technologies to analyze trends;
administer the Services; collect and store information such as user settings,
anonymous browser identifiers and video viewing history; supplement to our
server logs and other methods of traffic and response measurement; track users’
location and movements around the Services; gather demographic information about
our user base; and to improve our understanding of traffic on the Services,
visitor behavior, and responses to promotional campaigns.

Everyday Health and/or certain third parties may collect information about you
for online behavioral advertising purposes in order for you to receive relevant
interest-based advertising on the Services and on other websites, platforms and
media channels. We use Online Data as well as other User Information to send you
online behavioral ads. Online Data is aggregated with the Other Information and
data we collect and/or similar data collected by partners to create groups of
users and certain general-interest categories or segments that we have inferred.
We use this information to get a more accurate picture of audience interests in
order to serve ads we believe are more relevant to your interests.

Everyday Health and its partners may use cookies and other tracking technologies
to analyze trends, administer Services, track users’ movements around the
Services and on third party sites, devices and applications, and to gather
demographic information about our user base. You can control the use of cookies
at the individual browser level, but if you choose to disable cookies, it may
limit your use of certain features or functions on the Services. To manage Flash
cookies, please click here. Please see our Cookie Policy for more information,
including a more in-depth explanation of what cookies are, the different types
of cookies used on the Services, and how to change or delete them.

Tracking technologies on the Services may be deployed by Everyday Health and/or
by our service providers or partners. Certain tracking technologies enable us to
assign a unique identifier to you, and relate information about your use of the
Services to other information about you, including your User Information. We may
match information collected from you through different means or at different
times and use such information along with offline and online information
obtained from other sources (including from third parties), including, but not
limited to, demographic information and updated contact information, for the
purposes of learning more about you so we can provide you with relevant content
and advertising.

When you receive email messages or newsletters from us, we may use web beacons,
customized links, clear GIFs or similar technologies to determine whether the
email has been opened and which links you click in order to provide you with
more focused email communications or other information, and/or to aggregate that
information with other data we collect to use for some or all of the purposes
outlined in this Privacy Policy.

We and our partners (including but not limited to e-commerce partners,
affiliates, and analytics providers) also may use technologies such as pixel
tags, e-tags, IP addresses, Local Shared Objects, Local Storage, Flash cookies
and HTML5 to analyze trends; administer the Services; collect and store
information such as user settings, anonymous browser identifiers and video
viewing history; supplement our server logs and other methods of traffic and
response measurement; track users’ location and movements around the Services;
gather demographic information about our user base; and to improve our
understanding of traffic on the Services, visitor behavior, and responses to
promotional campaigns. We may receive reports based on the use of these
technologies by these third party companies on an individual and aggregated
basis. For example, we may connect information about your IP address to known
corporate or User Information and use the associated information related to
aggregate content preferences to assist in our efforts to market services to you
or the originating corporation(s). Various browsers may offer their own
management tools for removing Local Storage. To manage Flash Local Shared
Objects please click here.

We may use mobile analytics software to collect data and to better understand
the functionality of our mobile software, devices and applications on your phone
and other devices. This software may record information such as how often you
use the application, the events that occur within the application, aggregated
usage, performance data, and where the application was downloaded from. We may
link this information to User Information.

Everyday Health and/or certain third parties may collect information about you
for online behavioral advertising (“OBA”) purposes in order for you to receive
relevant interest-based advertising on the Services and on other websites,
platforms and media channels. OBA is also referred to as interest-based
advertising.

Everyday Health displays ads on both the Services and on the Channels. We may
use Online Data as well as other User Information to send you OBA. For example,
if you read an article about a particular subject on the Services, we may use
cookies from a vendor to later serve you an advertisement for a particular
product or service related to the viewed article. These third party vendors may
connect information about pages you visit on the Services with information about
pages you visit on other Channels and show you advertising based on this
combined information. These advertisements may appear when you are visiting a
different section of the Services or on another Channel. Likewise, third party
vendors may serve you advertisements when you visit the Services based on your
interaction with the Services and other Channels.

The specific providers we use for OBA are subject to change. For a list of some
of the applicable providers, click here. For information about how to opt out of
tracking methods for these entities and others, click here. For more details
about OBA and opting out, see Section 15 below.

Online Data is aggregated with the Other Information and data we collect as
described in this Privacy Policy and/or similar data collected by partners to
create groups of users and certain general-interest categories or segments that
we have inferred based on (a) demographic or interest data and GeoIP Data, (b)
the pages you view and links you click when viewing an email or using the
Services and those of our partners, and/or (c) the search terms you enter when
using certain search services. We use this information to get a more accurate
picture of audience interests in order to serve ads we believe are more relevant
to your interests. We store page views, clicks and search terms used for ad
personalization targeting separately from your Personal Information.

We may disclose your User Information to other entities within the Company
group, for legitimate business purposes (including operating the Services, and

may disclose your User Information to:

 * legal and regulatory authorities, upon request, or for the purposes of
   reporting any actual or suspected breach of applicable law or regulation;
 * outside professional advisors (such as accountants, auditors, or lawyers),
   subject to binding contractual obligations of confidentiality;
 * third party Processors (such as analytic providers; data centers; etc.),
   located anywhere in the world, subject to the requirements noted below in
   this Section 9;
 * any relevant party, law enforcement agency or court, to the extent necessary
   for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal rights;

   advertising, plugins or content. If you choose to interact with any such
   advertising, plugins or content, information about your activities on the
   Services and Channels to provide you targeted advertising based upon your
   interests may be shared with the relevant third party provider. If you click
   or tap on or otherwise interact with an advertisement, the advertiser may
   assume that you meet its target criteria;
 * any sponsors of contests, competitions, sweepstakes and prize draws, or
   content offerings, the registration data for such events is to be used by us
   as part of User Information, and may be shared with the sponsor and others,
   subject to this Policy and the sponsor’s privacy policy.  We may also share
   your information with third party vendors involved in the administration of
   such events. For contests, competitions, sweepstakes and prize draws, please
   read the official rules or terms and conditions carefully before you submit
   your information; and
 * to third parties whose practices are not covered by this Privacy Policy
   (e.g., third party providers of goods and services, marketing and advertising
   companies and agencies, content publishers and retailers).  Under applicable
   law, we may share Other Information with other parties who already possess
   your Personal Information in order to enhance their records about you or
   enhance their ability to provide products and services.

For some of our Services, we may make some information, such as the name of our
users, their mailing address, phone number, email address—and in certain
circumstances their employer’s name, company size and other industry
data—available on a rental or other basis (e.g., sale) to third party providers
of goods and services, for example, when such information is provided in
connection with certain content available on our websites.  Depending on where
you reside, when you register for certain Services, we may share the Personal
Information you provide with certain advertisers and sponsors.

Some of the Services may include websites that Everyday Health operates on
behalf of third parties (“Licensors”).  Where applicable, we may share some or
all of your Personal Information with the Licensor; however this privacy policy
does not cover the user of your Personal Information by a Licensor.  The privacy
practices of Everyday Health's Licensors may differ from this policy and we
encourage you to contact those third parties directly if you have questions
regarding their use of your Personal Information.  When you use a co-branded
service (a service operated with a partner of Everyday Health), or register or
otherwise provide information on a co-branded site, where applicable, we may
pass the collected information back to that partner, which may include third
party service providers whose services are embedded into and/or appear within
the Services. 

With respect to surveys and quizzes, in the event that responses are publicly
disclosed, users will be notified at the time they take the survey or quiz.
Otherwise we will disclose only aggregate information regarding its users’
responses in surveys or quizzes to other participants in the survey. Where
surveys or quizzes allow users to submit written comments, and where Everyday
Health advises users of the possibility of such disclosure at the time they take
the survey or quiz, Everyday Health reserves the right to disclose any
information provided by users, provided that no User Information identifying a
specific user is disclosed.

Everyday Health and some of our advertisers may use third party advertising
service companies to serve advertisements, for OBA or otherwise, and perform
related services when you interact with the Services. Often, these third party
advertising companies employ cookies and other technologies to measure the
effectiveness of website, app and email advertisements and to create a record of
interaction with our content that they use in conjunction with their advertising
which appears on other sites or applications, or for reporting website traffic,
app use, statistics, advertisement data and/or other activities on the Services.
We also engage third party providers to assist with the segmentation of this
data.

We may also sell or transfer Online Data to certain third parties such as
advertisers who will use this data to serve ads that they believe are relevant
to your interests, and who agree to maintain the confidentiality of this
information. Some of these third parties may combine the Online Data with their
own data about you to form a more detailed picture.

We may engage third party providers to assist with the collection, storage and
segmentation of Online Data and the providers are required to maintain the
confidentiality of this information. These third party providers may collect
User Information from our Services for their own purposes, including but not
limited to monitoring fraud around the web.

We may also engage third parties for the purpose of recognizing our users and
delivering interest-based content and advertisements to them. We may share your
User Information with our partners such as your name, postal address, email, or
other identifier. Our partners may also: (i) collect information directly from
your device, such as your IP address, device ID, advertising ID, and information
about your browser or operating system; (ii) combine User Information about you
received from Everyday Health with information about you from other sites or
services; and (iii) place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser.

If we engage a third-party Processor to Process your User Information, the
Processor will be subject to binding contractual obligations to: (i) only
Process the User Information in accordance with our prior written instructions;
and (ii) use measures to protect the confidentiality and security of the User
Information; together with any additional requirements under applicable law.

The Services contain links to other sites or partners whose information
practices may be different from ours. You should consult the privacy policy of
these third parties to learn how your privacy is protected.

Where we transfer your personal information from the EEA to recipients located
outside the EEA who are not in a jurisdiction that has been formally designated
by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection for
information, we do so on the basis of standard contractual clauses. You may
request a copy of the relevant standard contractual clauses using our privacy
portal. Please note that when you transfer any personal information directly to
an entity established outside the EEA, we are not responsible for that transfer
of your information. We will nevertheless process your information, from the
point at which we receive the data, in accordance with the provisions of this
policy.

but are designed for non-commercial, informational purposes only. YOU SHOULD NOT
RELY ON THIS INFORMATION AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR, NOR DOES IT REPLACE, PROFESSIONAL
MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS OR TREATMENT. IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS OR QUESTIONS
ABOUT YOUR HEALTH OR THE CONTENT ON THE SITES OR SERVICES, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS
CONSULT WITH A PHYSICIAN OR OTHER HEALTH-CARE PROFESSIONAL. DO NOT DISREGARD,
AVOID OR DELAY OBTAINING MEDICAL OR HEALTH RELATED ADVICE FROM YOUR HEALTH-CARE
PROFESSIONAL BECAUSE OF SOMETHING YOU MAY HAVE READ ON THE SITE OR THROUGH THE
SERVICES. THE USE OF ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED ON THE SITES OR THROUGH THE
SERVICES IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. Nothing stated or posted on the Sites or
available through any Service is intended to be, and must not be taken to be,
the practice of medicine or counseling care. For the purposes of this agreement,
the practice of medicine and counseling includes, without limitation,
psychiatry, psychology, psychotherapy, the practice of pharmacy, nutrition and
fitness counseling or providing health care treatment, instructions, diagnosis,
prognosis or advice. Developments in medical research may impact the health,
fitness and nutritional topics discussed on the Sites or through the Services
and no assurance can be given that the information contained in the Sites or the
Services will always include the most recent findings or developments with
respect to the particular material. Your access or use of the Sites and the
Services does not create in any way a physician/patient, confidential, or
privileged relationship, or any other relationship that would give rise to any
duties on our part or the part of our Licensors. We do not recommend or endorse
any specific tests, physicians, clinics, procedures, opinions, products or other
information that may appear on the Sites or Services. If you rely on any of the
information provided by this Site or the Services, our employees, or guests or
visitors to the Sites, you do so solely at your own risk.

Message boards, chats and other public forums are intended to serve as
discussion centers for users and subscribers of the Sites. These are public
forums and any information that you post on the Sites or through the Services
may be seen by anyone on the Internet. Any user will have the ability to edit or
delete their own posts after posting. When posting information on the Sites or

In addition to the prohibited activities described above, when posting
information and media on the Sites or through the Services you must not:

 * Post anything that interferes with or disrupts the Sites or the operation
   thereof, including files that contain malicious code, viruses, corrupted
   files, or any other similar software or programs that may damage the

   person, including, without limitation, posting any personal identifying

   phone numbers, email addresses, Social Security numbers, credit card numbers
   or any trade secrets or information for which you have any obligation of
   confidentiality;
 * Post statements or materials that constitute junk mail, spam or unauthorized
   advertising or promotional materials, including, without limitation, links to
   commercial products or services or any political campaigning;

   or restricts or inhibits any person or entity from using or enjoying any
   interactive features or other portions of the Sites, or which may expose
   Everyday Health or its users to harm or liability of any nature; or
 * Post material that infringes, or that may infringe, any patent, trademark,
   trade secret, copyright or other intellectual or proprietary right of any
   party, or that you otherwise do not have the right to make available, without
   the express permission of the owner of the copyright, trademark or other
   proprietary right. Everyday Health does not have any express burden of
   responsibility to provide any user with indications, markings or anything
   else that may aid any user in determining whether the material in question is
   copyrighted or trademarked. Users shall be solely liable for any damage
   resulting for infringements of copyrights, trademarks, proprietary rights or
   any other harm resulting from such submission.

Any user failing to comply with these guidelines may be expelled from and
refused continued access to the message boards, chats or other public forums in
the future. Everyday Health or its designated agents may remove or alter any
user-created content at any time for any reason. Materials posted and/or
uploaded to the various public forums may be subject to size and usage
limitations. You are responsible for adhering to such limitations. Everyday
Health and its Licensors expressly disclaim all responsibility and endorsement
and make no representation as to the validity of any opinion, advice,
information or statement made or displayed in these forums by third parties, nor
are we responsible for any errors or omissions in such postings, or for
hyperlinks embedded in any messages. Under no circumstances will Everyday
Health, its Licensors, or our affiliates, suppliers or agents be liable for any
loss or damage caused by your reliance on information obtained through these
forums. The opinions expressed in these forums are solely the opinions of the
participants, and do not reflect the opinions of Everyday Health, its Licensors
or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates. Everyday Health and its Licensors
have no obligation whatsoever to monitor any of the content or postings on the
message boards, chat rooms or other public forums. However, you acknowledge and
agree that we reserve the right to monitor the same at our sole discretion.
Everyday Health employees typically moderate our boards on a daily basis. Unless
otherwise stated, these moderators are not medical professionals and should not
be construed as such. Our moderators reserve the right to alter, edit, refuse to
post or remove any postings or content, in whole or in part, for any reason and
to disclose such materials and the circumstances surrounding their transmission
to any third party in order to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal
process or governmental request and to protect ourselves, our clients, sponsors,
users and visitors. In addition, Everyday Health and Everyday Health’s
moderators reserve the right to contact users to inform them of policies, hide
users’ posts or delete users’ accounts without warning or notice in advance, for
any reason, including but not limited to the violation of these TOU.

suggestions, ideas, notes, concepts, information or other materials
(collectively, "Submission Materials"), or by posting such Submission Materials
on the Sites, you hereby grant to us and our designees a worldwide,
non-exclusive, sublicenseable, assignable, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable

you. The foregoing license to Everyday Health shall be fully paid-up and royalty
free. You represent and warrant that any person or entity named or pictured in
such Submission Material has provided any necessary licenses, rights or
authorizations to allow Everyday Health's use of such Submission Materials in
accordance with such license. None of the Submission Materials disclosed or

other public forums shall be subject to any obligation, whether of
confidentiality, attribution or otherwise.

disable any and all of your links to the Sites. In the absence of a written
agreement with us specifying how you may link to the Sites, use the following
guidelines for adding one or more links to the Sites from your website:

 * The link must be a text-only link that clearly includes the URL of the
   applicable Site;
 * If the link points to any page on a Site other than the home page, the text
   link must also include the title of the target landing page. (For example, if
   the link points to the "Healthy Living" area of the EverydayHealth.com Site,
   the link should include the words "Healthy Living - Everyday Health.");
 * The appearance, position and other aspects of the link may not be such as to
   damage or dilute the goodwill associated with our good name and trademarks;
 * The appearance, position and other aspects of the link may not create the
   false impression that an entity is associated with, sponsored by, or endorsed
   by us;
 * The link, when activated by a user, must display the Site full-screen and not
   within a "frame" on the linking website and linking may not trigger any
   interstitial or pop-up or pop-under windows; and
 * The link may not be used in connection with or appear on a website that a
   reasonable person might consider offensive, obscene, defamatory or otherwise
   malicious.[1]

not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of
liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the
above limitations and disclaimers may not apply to you. To the extent that we
may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any implied warranty or limit
liabilities, the scope and duration of such warranty and the extent of our

17. COPYRIGHT POLICY.

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for
copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes
their rights under the U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that
materials hosted by Everyday Health infringe your copyright, you or your agent
may send to Everyday Health a notice requesting that the material be removed or
access to it be blocked. Any notification by a copyright owner or a person
authorized to act on its behalf that fails to comply with requirements of the
DMCA shall not be considered sufficient notice and shall not be deemed to confer
upon Everyday Health actual knowledge of facts or circumstances from which
infringing material or acts are evident. If you believe in good faith that a
notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA
permits you to send to Everyday Health a counter-notice. All notices and counter
notices must meet the then current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA;
see http://www.loc.gov/copyright for details. If you believe that your work has
been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide our
Copyright Agent the following information:

 * An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf
   of the owner of the copyright interest;
 * Identification of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;
 * Identification of where the material that you claim is infringing is located
   on the Site or Service reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the
   material;
 * Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as your
   address, telephone number and, if available, your email address;
 * A statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is
   not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
 * A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information
   in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized
   to act on the copyright owner's behalf.

Everyday Health's Copyright Agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement
or counter notices can be reached as follows: Designated Agent: Stephen Hicks;
Address of Agent: ? Ziff Davis, LLC, 114 5th Avenue, 15th FL, New York, NY
10011; Telephone: (212) 503-3569; Fax: (646) 728-9501; E-mail for notice:
DMCA@everydayhealthinc.com. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor
before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be
penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

18. JURISDICTIONAL ISSUES.

Everyday Health makes no representation or warranty that the content and
materials on the Sites or the Services are appropriate or available for use in
locations outside the United States. Those who choose to access the Sites or use
the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and at their own
risk, and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent
applicable. Everyday Health reserves the right, at any time in our sole
discretion, to limit the availability and accessibility of the Sites or the
Services to any person, geographic area or jurisdiction we so desire, and to
limit the quantities of any such service or products that we provide.

19. TERMINATION.

password, account (in whole or in part) or use of the Sites or Services, and

any reason. You agree that any actions taken under this Section may be effective
without prior notice to you.

Back to Top | Back to Everyday Health Terms of Use Index


20. GOVERNING LAW.

These TOU and the relationship between you and Everyday Health shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without
regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and Everyday Health irrevocably
agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and
state courts located within the county of New York, in the State of New York,
and waive any jurisdictional, venue or inconvenient forum objections to such
courts.

Back to Top | Back to Everyday Health Terms of Use Index


21. WAIVER AND SEVERABILITY.

The failure of Everyday Health to exercise or enforce any right or provision of
these TOU shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any
provision of these TOU is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be
deemed severed herefrom and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of
any remaining provisions.

Back to Top | Back to Everyday Health Terms of Use Index


22. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

We may perform any of our obligations or exercise any of our rights under this
TOU through one or more of our corporate affiliates (including any entity that
directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control
with us). If Everyday Health or its assets are acquired by another entity, that
entity will assume our rights and obligations as described in this TOU. You may
not assign your rights or obligations under this TOU, by operation of law or
otherwise, without our prior written consent.

Back to Top | Back to Everyday Health Terms of Use Index


23. UPDATES.

We may modify these TOU at any time, as we deem appropriate. If you disagree
with the changes to the TOU, you must discontinue your use of the Sites and
Services, and if you have registered as a member, cancel your registration. Your
continued access or use of any of the Sites or Services following such notice
signifies your acceptance of the modified TOU. It is your responsibility to
review the TOU regularly to be aware of such modifications. We reserve the right
to modify or discontinue the Sites or Services with or without notice. We will
not be liable to you or any third party should we exercise our right to modify
or discontinue the Sites or Services. If you object to any such changes, your
sole recourse will be to cease access to the Sites or Services. Continued access
to the Sites or Services following notice of any such changes will indicate your
acknowledgement of such changes and acceptance of the Sites or Services as so
modified and your use of new Services will be governed by these TOU.

Back to Top | Back to Everyday Health Terms of Use Index


24. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

In the unlikely event that you're not satisfied with customer service's
solution, and you and Everyday Health are unable to resolve a dispute through
the Informal Dispute Resolution Procedures below, we each agree to resolve the
dispute through binding arbitration or small claims court instead of in courts
of general jurisdiction.

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral
arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in
court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Unless expressly limited
by this arbitration provision, arbitrators can award the same damages and relief
that a court can award. Any arbitration under this Agreement will take place on
an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. In
arbitration you may be entitled to recover attorneys' fees from us to the same
extent as you would be in court.

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

(1) Claims Subject to Arbitration: To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, Everyday Health and you agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims between
us, except for claims arising from bodily injury or that pertain to enforcing,
protecting, or the validity of your or our intellectual property rights (or the
intellectual property rights of any of our licensors, affiliates and partners).
This Arbitration Agreement is intended to be broadly interpreted. It includes,
but is not limited to:

 * claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between
   us, whether based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other
   statutory or common-law legal theory;
 * claims that arose before this or any prior Agreement (including, but not
   limited to, claims relating to advertising);
 * claims for mental or emotional distress or injury not arising out of physical
   bodily injury;
 * claims that are currently the subject of purported class action litigation in
   which you are not a current member of a certified class; and
 * claims that may arise after the termination of this Agreement.

References to "Everyday Health," "you," "we" and "us" in this Arbitration
Agreement include our respective predecessors in interest, successors, and
assigns, as well as our respective past, present, and future parents,
subsidiaries and affiliates (including Ziff Davis, Inc., Ziff Davis, LLC,
Everyday Health, Inc., Everyday Health Media, LLC, and their affiliates); those
entities and our respective agents, employees, licensees, licensors, and
providers of content as of the time your or our claim arises; and all authorized
or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of Services under this or prior
Agreements between us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may elect to
have claims heard in small claims court seeking only individualized relief, so
long as the action is not removed or appealed to a court of general
jurisdiction. This Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing
issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. You agree that, by
entering into this Agreement, you and we are each waiving the right to
participate in a class action and to a trial by jury to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law. This Agreement evidences a transaction in
interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16)
governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. This
Arbitration Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(2) Mandatory Pre-Arbitration Notice and Informal Dispute Resolution Procedures:
You and we agree that good-faith, informal efforts to resolve disputes often can
result in a prompt, cost-effective and mutually beneficial outcome. Therefore, a
party who intends to initiate arbitration or file a claim in small claims court
must first send to the other a written Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). A Notice
from you to Everyday Health must be emailed to dispute.notice@everydayhealth.com
("Notice Address").

Any Notice must include (i) the claimant's name, address, and email address;
(ii) a description of the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; (iii) if you
are submitting the Notice, any relevant facts regarding your use of the Sites,
including whether you have created an account with or receive any newsletters
associated with any of the Sites; (iv) a description of the nature and basis of
the specific relief sought, including the damages sought, if any, and a detailed
calculation for them; and (v) a personally signed statement from the claimant
(and not their counsel) verifying the accuracy of the contents of the Notice.
The Notice must be individualized, meaning it can concern only your dispute and
no other person's dispute. 

After receipt of a completed Notice, the parties shall engage in a good faith
effort to resolve the dispute for a period of 60 days (which can be extended by
agreement). You and we agree that, after receipt of the completed Notice, the
recipient may request an individualized video settlement conference (which can
be held after the 60-day period) and both parties will personally attend (with
counsel, if represented). If you are unable to participate in the settlement
conference by video, you may attend telephonically upon showing of good cause or
extraordinary circumstances warranting telephonic participation (e.g., inability
to afford equipment or sufficient Wi-Fi due to indigent circumstances). You and
we agree that the parties (and counsel, if represented) shall work cooperatively
to schedule the conference at the earliest mutually convenient time and to seek
to reach a resolution. If we and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the
issues identified in the Notice within 60 days after the completed Notice is
received (or a longer time if agreed to by the parties), you or we may commence
an arbitration proceeding or a small claims court proceeding (if permitted by
small claims court rules).

Compliance with this Mandatory Pre-Arbitration Notice and Informal Dispute
Resolution Procedures section is a condition precedent to initiating
arbitration. Any applicable limitations period (including statute of
limitations) and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties
engage in the informal dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Section
24(2). All of the Mandatory Pre-Arbitration Notice and Informal Dispute
Resolution Procedures are essential so that you and Everyday Health have a
meaningful opportunity to resolve disputes informally. If any aspect of these
requirements has not been met, a court of competent jurisdiction may enjoin the
filing or prosecution of an arbitration. In addition, unless prohibited by law,
the arbitration administrator may not accept, administer, assess, or demand fees
in connection with an arbitration that has been initiated without completion of
the Mandatory Pre-Arbitration Notice and Informal Dispute Resolution Procedures.
If the arbitration is already pending, it shall be administratively closed.
Nothing in this paragraph limits the right of a party to seek damages for
non-compliance with these Procedures in arbitration.

(3) Arbitration Procedure: The arbitration will be governed by applicable rules
of National Arbitration & Mediation ("NAM") (including the Comprehensive Dispute
Resolution Rules and Procedures and/or the Supplemental Rules for Mass
Arbitration Filings, as applicable) ("NAM Rules"), as modified by this
Arbitration Agreement, and will be administered by NAM. (If NAM is unavailable
or unwilling to do so, another arbitration provider shall be selected by the
parties that will do so, or if the parties are unable to agree on an alternative
administrator, by the court pursuant to 9 U.S.C. §5.) The NAM Rules are
available online at www.namadr.com, by calling NAM at 1-800-358-2550, or by
requesting them in writing at the Notice Address. You may obtain a form to
initiate arbitration at:
https://www.namadr.com/content/uploads/2020/09/Comprehensive-Demand-for-Arb-revised-9.18.19.pdf
or by contacting NAM.

You and we agree that the party initiating arbitration must submit a
certification that they have complied with and completed the Mandatory
Pre-Arbitration Notice and Informal Dispute Resolution Procedures requirements
referenced in Section 24(2) and that they are a party to the Arbitration
Agreement enclosed with or attached to the demand for arbitration. The demand
for arbitration and certification must be personally signed by the party
initiating arbitration (and their counsel, if represented).

All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except as otherwise expressly
provided herein. The arbitrator may consider but shall not be bound by rulings
in other arbitrations involving different customers.

Unless we and you agree otherwise, or the applicable NAM Rules dictate
otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of
your billing address and you and a Everyday Health representative will be
required to attend in person. At the conclusion of the arbitration proceeding,
the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the
essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator's
decision is binding only between you and Everyday Health and will not have any
preclusive effect in another arbitration or proceeding that involves a different
party. An arbitrator's award that has been fully satisfied shall not be entered
in any court.

As in court, you and Everyday Health agree that any counsel representing a party
in arbitration certifies when initiating and proceeding in arbitration that they
are complying with the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b),
including certification that the claim or relief sought is neither frivolous nor
brought for an improper purpose.

The arbitrator is authorized to impose any sanctions under the NAM Rules,
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, or applicable federal or state law, against
all appropriate represented parties and counsel. 

Except as expressly provided in the Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may
grant any remedy, relief, or outcome that the parties could have received in
court, including awards of attorneys' fees and costs, in accordance with
applicable law. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, the parties shall
bear their own attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator
awards sanctions or finds that either the substance of the claim, the defense,
or the relief sought is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as
measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 (b)).

(4) Arbitration Fees: The payment of arbitration fees (the fees imposed by the
arbitration administrator including filing, arbitrator, and hearing fees) will
be governed by the applicable NAM Rules, unless you qualify for a fee waiver
under applicable law. If after exhausting any potentially available fee waivers,
the arbitrator finds that the arbitration fees will be prohibitive for you as
compared to litigation, we will pay as much of your filing, arbitrator, and
hearing fees in the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the
arbitration from being cost-prohibitive, regardless of the outcome of the
arbitration, unless the arbitrator determines that your claim(s) were frivolous
or brought for an improper purpose or asserted in bad faith. You and we agree
that arbitration should be cost-effective for all parties and that any party may
engage with NAM to address the reduction or deferral of fees.

(5) Confidentiality: Upon either party's request, the arbitrator will issue an
order requiring that confidential information of either party disclosed during
the arbitration (whether in documents or orally) may not be used or disclosed
except in connection with the arbitration or a proceeding to enforce the
arbitration award and that any permitted court filing of confidential
information must be done under seal to the furthest extent permitted by law.

(6) Offer of Settlement: In any arbitration between you and Everyday Health, the
defending party may, but is not obligated to, make a written settlement offer at
any time before the evidentiary hearing or, if a dispositive motion is
permitted, prior to the dispositive motion being granted. The amount or terms of
any settlement offer may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the
arbitrator issues an award on the claim. If the award is issued in the other
party's favor and is less than the defending party's settlement offer or if the
award is in the defending party's favor, the other party must pay the defending
party's costs incurred after the offer was made, including any attorney's fees.
If any applicable statute or case law prohibits the shifting of costs incurred
in the arbitration, then the offer in this provision shall serve to cease the
accumulation of any costs to which the party bringing the claim may be entitled
for the cause of action under which it is suing.

(7) Requirement of Individualized Relief: The arbitrator may award declaratory
or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and
only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's
individual claim. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND WE
AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR
INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED
CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. Further, unless
both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than
one person's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a
representative, class, or private attorney general proceeding. If, after
exhaustion of all appeals, any of these prohibitions on non-individualized
declaratory or injunctive relief; class, representative, and private attorney
general claims; and consolidation are found to be unenforceable with respect to
a particular claim or with respect to a particular request for relief (such as a
request for injunctive relief sought with respect to a particular claim), then
the parties agree such a claim or request for relief shall be decided by a court
of competent jurisdiction, after all other arbitrable claims and requests for
relief are arbitrated. You agree that any arbitrations between you and Everyday
Health will be subject to this Section 24 and not to any prior arbitration
agreement you had with Everyday Health, and, notwithstanding any provision in
this Agreement to the contrary, you agree that this Section 24 amends any prior
arbitration agreement you had with Everyday Health, including with respect to
claims that arose before this or any prior arbitration agreement. 

(8) Opt Out of Future Changes: Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if
Everyday Health makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other
than a change to the Notice Address), you may reject any such change by sending
Everyday Health an email to dispute.notice@everydayhealth.com within 30 days of
the posting of the amended arbitration agreement that provides: (i) your full
legal name, (ii) your complete mailing address, (iii) your phone number, (iv) if
applicable, the username or email address associated with any potential account
or newsletter; (v) the relevant Site; and (vi) the approximate date of your
initial use of the relevant Site. Such an opt-out email must be sent by you
personally, and not by your agent, attorney, or anyone else purporting to act on
your behalf. It must include a statement, personally signed by you, that you
wish to reject the change to the Arbitration Agreement. This is not an opt out
of arbitration altogether.

(9) Mass Filing:

If, at any time, 25 or more claimants (including you) submit Notices or seek to
file demands for arbitration raising similar claims against the other party or
related parties by the same or coordinated counsel or entities, consistent with
the definition and criteria of Mass Filings ("Mass Filing") set forth in NAM's
Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures ("NAM's Mass
Filing Rules," available at https://www.namadr.com/resources/rules-fees-forms/),
you and we agree that the additional procedures set forth below shall apply. The
parties agree that throughout this process, their counsel shall meet and confer
to discuss modifications to these procedures based on the particular needs of
the Mass Filing. The parties acknowledge and agree that by electing to
participate in a Mass Filing, the adjudication of their dispute might be
delayed. Any applicable limitations period (including statute of limitations)
and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled beginning when the Mandatory
Pre-Arbitration Notice and Informal Dispute Resolution Procedures are initiated,
so long as the pre-arbitration Notice complies with the requirements in Section
24(2), until your claim is selected to proceed as part of a staged process or is
settled, withdrawn, otherwise resolved, or opted out of arbitration.

Stage One: Counsel for the claimants and counsel for Everyday Health shall each
select 25 claims per side (50 claims total) to be filed and to proceed in
individual arbitrations as part of a staged process. Each of these individual
arbitrations shall be assigned to a different, single arbitrator unless the
parties agree otherwise in writing. Any remaining claims shall not be filed or
be deemed filed in arbitration, nor shall any arbitration fees be assessed in
connection with those claims unless and until they are selected to be filed in
individual arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. After this
initial set of staged proceedings is completed, the parties shall promptly
engage in a global mediation session of all remaining claims with a retired
federal or state court judge and Everyday Health shall pay the mediator's fee.

Stage Two: If the remaining claims are not resolved at this time, counsel for
the claimants and counsel for Everyday Health shall each select 50 claims per
side (100 claims total) to be filed and to proceed in individual arbitrations as
part of a second staged process, subject to any procedural changes the parties
agreed to in writing. Each of these individual arbitrations shall be assigned to
a different, single arbitrator unless the parties agree otherwise in writing.
Any remaining claims shall not be filed or be deemed filed in arbitration, nor
shall any arbitration fees be assessed in connection with those claims unless
and until they are selected to be filed in individual arbitration proceedings as
part of a staged process. After this second set of staged proceedings is
completed, the parties shall promptly engage in a global mediation session of
all remaining claims with a retired federal or state court judge and Everyday
Health shall pay the mediator's fee.

Stage Three: If the remaining claims are not resolved at this time, counsel for
the claimants and counsel for Everyday Health shall each select 100 claims per
side (200 claims total) to be filed and to proceed in individual arbitrations as
part of a third staged process, subject to any procedural changes the parties
agreed to in writing. Any remaining claims shall not be filed or be deemed filed
in arbitration, nor shall any arbitration fees be assessed in connection with
those claims unless and until they are selected to be filed in individual
arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. Following this third set of
staged proceedings, counsel for claimants may elect to have the parties
participate in a global mediation session of all remaining claims with a retired
federal or state court judge. 

Stage Four: If your claim is not resolved at this time, then you agree that your
claim will be resolved as part of continuing, staged individual arbitration
proceedings as set forth below. Assuming the number of remaining claims exceeds
100, then 100 claims shall be randomly selected (or selected through a process
agreed to by counsel for the parties) to be filed and to proceed in individual
arbitrations as part of a staged process. If the number of remaining claims is
fewer than 100, then all of those claims shall be filed and proceed in
individual arbitrations. Any remaining claims shall not be filed or be deemed
filed in arbitration, nor shall any arbitration fees be assessed in connection
with those claims unless and until they are selected to be filed in individual
arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. After each set of 100
claims are adjudicated, settled, withdrawn, or otherwise resolved, this process
shall repeat consistent with these parameters. Counsel for the parties are
encouraged to meet and confer, participate in mediation, and engage with each
other and with NAM (including through a Procedural Arbitrator) to explore ways
to streamline the adjudication of claims, increase the number of claims to
proceed at any given time, promote efficiencies, conserve resources, and resolve
the remaining claims.

A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enforce these Mass
Filing provisions and, if necessary, to enjoin the mass filing, prosecution, or
administration of arbitrations and the assessment of arbitration fees. If these
additional procedures apply to your claim, and a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that they are not enforceable as to your claim, then your claim shall
proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction consistent with this Agreement.

You and Everyday Health agree that we each value the integrity and efficiency of
arbitration and wish to employ the process for the fair resolution of genuine
and sincere disputes between us. You and Everyday Health acknowledge and agree
to act in good faith to ensure the processes set forth herein are followed. The
parties further agree that application of these Mass Filing procedures have been
reasonably designed to result in an efficient and fair adjudication of such
cases.

(10) Severability: If any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be
void, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable, then that portion shall be deemed to
be severable and, if possible, superseded by a valid, enforceable provision, or
portion thereof, that matches the intent of the original provision, or portion
thereof, as closely as possible. The remainder of this Arbitration Agreement
shall continue to be enforceable and valid according to the terms contained
herein.


25. CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

You and Everyday Health agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each
party may bring claims (whether in court or in arbitration) against the other
only in an individual capacity, and not participate as a plaintiff, claimant, or
class member in any class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general,
or representative proceeding. This means that you and Everyday Health may not
bring a claim on behalf of a class or group and may not bring a claim on behalf
of any other person unless doing so as a parent, guardian, or ward of a minor or
in another similar capacity for an individual who cannot otherwise bring their
own individual claim. This also means that you and Everyday Health may not
participate in any class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or
representative proceeding brought by any third party. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, you or Everyday Health may participate in a class-wide settlement. To
the fullest extent permitted by law, you and Everyday Health waive any right to
a jury trial.
