2. Description of Service
SonoLynx is a clinical workflow software platform designed for structured ultrasound reporting, patient registration, diagnostic worksheet management, DICOM image association, HL7 message transmission, and radiology report generation.

By registering, you represent that you are authorized to access protected health information (PHI) under applicable laws, including HIPAA (where applicable), and that your use complies with your organization's data governance policies.
4. User Accounts & Security
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You must not share login details with unauthorized individuals. SonoLynx implements role-based access control (RBAC), automatic session timeouts, and full audit logging to support your compliance obligations. You must notify us immediately at connect@sonolynx.com if you suspect any unauthorized access to your account.

- Resell, sublicense, or otherwise distribute access to the Platform without written consent.
6. Data & Privacy
Your use of the Platform is also governed by our Privacy Policy. SonoLynx processes clinical data only for the purposes of providing the Platform services. We do not sell patient data to third parties. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256). Customers subject to HIPAA must execute a Business Associate Agreement with Bricklix prior to storing PHI on the Platform.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Bricklix shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Platform, including but not limited to clinical errors resulting from incorrect data entry, system downtime, or third-party integration failures. The Platform is a workflow tool and does not replace clinical judgment.
10. Termination
Bricklix reserves the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Platform at any time for breach of these Terms, non-payment, or any conduct that poses a risk to other users or the Platform's integrity. You may terminate your account at any time by contacting support. Upon termination, your data will be retained for 30 days before permanent deletion, unless otherwise required by law.
