Background and Purpose; Services

Mind & Match provides Providers with the ability to be part of its directory and obtain access to the Service. The Service includes:

• Access to Mind & Match online portal.
• Ability to connect with potential clients.

Because our Service is evolving over time, we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Service, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion. We may change any of this Agreement by posting on the Website. Unless you close your Account, the revised Agreement will be effective immediately upon posting on the effective date indicated in this Agreement, as applicable, and apply to any continued or new use of the Service.

While Mind & Match connects potential clients with providers, the decision of a provider and a client to connect and initiate patient treatment is solely within the discretion of the Provider and the client. Mind & Match solely connects you with potential clients but beyond that Mind & Match cannot provide any guarantees as to your ability to initiate treatment with potential clients.
