Terms of Service

Last updated: April 2025

Agreement to terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of FertilityMetrics.com ("Site") and any personalized reports or other products offered by FertilityMetrics LLC ("FertilityMetrics," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

We may update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

Nature of the service

FertilityMetrics is an information and data presentation service. We collect, process, and display publicly available data from the CDC's National ART Surveillance System (NASS) to help individuals research IVF fertility clinics in the United States.

FertilityMetrics is not a medical provider, medical advisor, or healthcare service. Nothing on this Site constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. All information is provided for general informational and research purposes only.

The data presented on this Site is derived from publicly available federal datasets. While we make reasonable efforts to ensure accuracy, we do not guarantee that the information is complete, current, or error-free. Always verify information directly with the clinic and consult a licensed reproductive endocrinologist before making any medical decisions.

Personalized clinic reports

FertilityMetrics offers personalized clinic reports ("Reports") for purchase. By purchasing a Report, you agree to the following:

  • Delivery: Reports are delivered via email within 48 hours of purchase. Delivery times may vary. We are not liable for delays caused by incorrect email addresses provided at checkout.
  • Personal use only: Reports are licensed for your personal, non-commercial use only. You may not reproduce, distribute, resell, or publicly display Report content without our written permission.
  • No guarantee of outcomes: Reports present data and analysis to inform your research. They do not guarantee any particular IVF outcome, clinic performance, or medical result.
  • Accuracy: Reports are generated from the same parsed CDC dataset that powers our Site. They are subject to the same accuracy limitations described in these Terms and our Accuracy Disclaimer.
  • Refund policy: Due to the digital nature of Reports, all sales are final. If you believe your Report contains a significant data error, contact us at support@fertilitymetrics.com within 7 days of purchase and we will review and, if warranted, issue a corrected Report or full refund at our discretion.

Data accuracy and limitations

All clinic success rate data is sourced from the CDC's National ART Surveillance System. FertilityMetrics makes no representations or warranties regarding:

  • The accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any data presented on the Site
  • Errors that may have occurred during data parsing, processing, or transformation
  • Changes to clinic information, success rates, services, or contact details since data collection
  • The suitability of any clinic for your specific medical situation

Success rates are influenced by many factors including patient age, diagnosis, clinic protocols, and patient selection practices. Higher reported rates do not necessarily indicate superior clinical skill. Lower rates do not necessarily indicate inferior care. Always consult a reproductive endocrinologist for guidance specific to your situation.

Not medical advice

The information on this Site, including clinic profiles, success rates, quality indicators, red flag analyses, cost estimates, and report content, is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on FertilityMetrics.com. If you have questions about a medical condition or treatment, always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified healthcare provider.
