Terms & Conditions

These Terms of Service govern your use of the website located at https://annearundelaudiology.com/ and any related services provided by Anne Arundel Audiology.

By accessing https://annearundelaudiology.com/, you agree to abide by these Terms of Service and to comply with all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with these Terms of Service, you are prohibited from using or accessing this website or using any other services provided by Anne Arundel Audiology.

We, Anne Arundel Audiology, reserve the right to review and amend any of these Terms of Service at our sole discretion. Upon doing so, we will update this page. Any changes to these Terms of Service will take effect immediately from the date of publication.

These Terms of Service were last updated on September 3, 2026.

Medical Disclaimer

The information provided on this website is for general educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Hearing loss, tinnitus, ear pain, drainage, and sudden changes in hearing can have many causes, and only an in-person evaluation can determine yours. Always seek the advice of a qualified audiologist, physician, or other healthcare provider with any questions you may have regarding a hearing-related concern or medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on this website.

No content on this site is intended to create an audiologist-patient relationship, and no such relationship is formed by browsing the website, submitting a contact form, or requesting an appointment. That relationship begins when you are seen in our office.

If you experience sudden hearing loss, sudden severe dizziness, or acute ear pain, treat it as urgent and seek medical care immediately rather than waiting for an appointment.

Appointments and Scheduling

Anne Arundel Audiology sees patients by appointment; we do not accept walk-ins. Appointment requests submitted through this website — whether through our contact form or the online scheduling tool — are requests and are not confirmed until our office contacts you to confirm the date and time.

Patients arriving more than 15 minutes late may be asked to reschedule so that the remainder of the day's appointments are not delayed.

Our online scheduling tool is provided by a third-party practice management platform. Availability, functionality, and the handling of information entered into that tool are subject to that provider's own terms and privacy practices in addition to ours.

Insurance, Coverage, and Pricing

Any information on this website regarding accepted insurance carriers, financing options, coverage, or cost is provided for general guidance only. Benefits vary by plan and change over time, and listing a carrier on this website is not a guarantee of coverage, network participation, or payment for any particular service. Your specific benefits are verified before your appointment. Contact the office at 410-766-6320 for questions about coverage or out-of-pocket cost.

Patient Privacy and HIPAA

Anne Arundel Audiology is a healthcare provider subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Protected health information created in the course of your care is handled under our Notice of Privacy Practices, and information collected through this website is described in our Privacy Policy.

Website contact forms and email are not secure channels. Do not transmit detailed medical history, diagnoses, insurance identifiers, or other sensitive health information through this website. Call the office to discuss anything clinical.

Limitations of Use

By using this website, you warrant on behalf of yourself, your users, and other parties you represent that you will not:

modify, copy, prepare derivative works of, decompile, or reverse engineer any materials and software contained on this website;
remove any copyright or other proprietary notations from any materials and software on this website;
transfer the materials to another person or “mirror” the materials on any other server;
knowingly or negligently use this website or any of its associated services in a way that abuses or disrupts our networks or any other service Anne Arundel Audiology provides;
use this website or its associated services to transmit or publish any harassing, indecent, obscene, fraudulent, or unlawful material;

Intellectual Property

The intellectual property in the materials contained in this website is owned by or licensed to Anne Arundel Audiology and is protected by applicable copyright and trademark law. We grant our users permission to download one copy of the materials for personal, non-commercial transitory use.

Patient forms made available for download — including intake, medical history, HIPAA acknowledgement, and financial policy documents — are provided so that current and prospective patients may complete them for their own appointments. They may not be reproduced, redistributed, or repurposed for any other practice or business.

Hearing aid manufacturer names, product names, and logos referenced on this website are the trademarks of their respective owners. Their appearance here indicates only that Anne Arundel Audiology fits and services those products; it does not imply that those manufacturers endorse this practice or this website.

This constitutes the grant of a license, not a transfer of title. This license shall automatically terminate if you violate any of these restrictions or the Terms of Service, and may be terminated by Anne Arundel Audiology at any time.

Liability

Our website and the materials on our website are provided on an ‘as is’ basis. To the extent permitted by law, Anne Arundel Audiology makes no warranties, expressed or implied, and hereby disclaims and negates all other warranties including, without limitation, implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of intellectual property, or other violation of rights.

In no event shall Anne Arundel Audiology or its suppliers be liable for any consequential loss suffered or incurred by you or any third party arising from the use or inability to use this website or the materials on this website, even if Anne Arundel Audiology or an authorized representative has been notified, orally or in writing, of the possibility of such damage.

In the context of this agreement, “consequential loss” includes any consequential loss, indirect loss, real or anticipated loss of profit, loss of benefit, loss of revenue, loss of business, loss of goodwill, loss of opportunity, loss of savings, loss of reputation, loss of use and/or loss or corruption of data, whether under statute, contract, equity, tort (including negligence), indemnity or otherwise.

Because some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties, or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages, these limitations may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms of Service limits any liability that cannot lawfully be limited, and nothing here alters the professional obligations Anne Arundel Audiology owes to patients under Maryland law.

Accuracy of Materials

The materials appearing on our website are not comprehensive and are for general information purposes only. Anne Arundel Audiology does not warrant or make any representations concerning the accuracy, likely results, or reliability of the use of the materials on this website, or otherwise relating to such materials or to any resources linked to this website.

Use of any such linked site is at your own risk and we strongly advise you to make your own investigations with respect to the suitability of those sites.

Right to Terminate

We may suspend or terminate your right to use our website and terminate these Terms of Service immediately upon written notice to you for any breach of these Terms of Service.

Severance

Any term of these Terms of Service which is wholly or partially void or unenforceable is severed to the extent that it is void or unenforceable. The validity of the remainder of these Terms of Service is not affected.

Governing Law

These Terms of Service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Anne Arundel County, Maryland.
