1. Agreement to Terms
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and RainerTek LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"), governing your access to and use of the BioSure Lab Portal platform, including the website at biosurelab.com and associated subdomains, application programming interfaces (APIs), report generation services, client portal, and any related services (collectively, the "Service").
By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy (/privacy-policy). If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of an organization (laboratory, company, pharmacy, or other entity), you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.
2. Description of Service
BioSure Lab Portal is a cloud-based Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) developed and operated by RainerTek LLC. The platform is designed to digitize and streamline the end-to-end workflow of environmental monitoring laboratories, with an initial focus on USP 797 compliance testing for compounding pharmacy cleanrooms.
The Service includes, but is not limited to:
- Laboratory management: Multi-tenant lab configuration, employee management, equipment tracking, organism databases, and signature management
- Client company management: Client organization onboarding, facility location management with floor plan uploads, sample location mapping, and employee access management
- Chain of custody (CoC) management: Digital creation, submission, and tracking of chain-of-custody forms for sample intake
- Sample result entry: CFU count recording, organism identification, plate image upload, incubation tracking, and alert/action level evaluation
- Report generation: Automated PDF lab report generation with historical trending analysis, electronic signatures, and version control
- Report management: Review and approval workflows, version history, client visibility controls, and bulk download capabilities
- Scheduling: Recurring sample submission scheduling with calendar views and occurrence tracking
- Client portal: Self-service portal for client companies to access reports, submit CoC forms, comment on reports, and manage their employees
- Notifications: Real-time in-app notifications and email alerts for key platform events
- Analytics and audit trails: Dashboard analytics, activity logging, and global search
3. User Accounts
3.1 Account Creation
Accounts on BioSure Lab Portal are created through one of the following methods:
- Lab tenant creation: A Super Administrator provisions a new laboratory tenant and creates the initial Lab Administrator account
- Lab employee invitation: A Lab Administrator creates employee accounts, which triggers an invitation email to the new user
- Client company onboarding: A Lab Administrator creates a Company Administrator account during client onboarding, which triggers an invitation email
- Client employee creation: A Company Administrator creates employee accounts for their organization
You may not create an account using false or misleading information. Each user must have a unique, valid email address.
3.2 Third-Party Authentication
The Service supports sign-in via third-party authentication providers, including Google and Microsoft. By choosing to sign in through a third-party provider:
- You authorize us to receive your name, email address, profile picture, and account identifier from that provider for the purpose of creating or authenticating your BioSure account
- You acknowledge that your use of the third-party provider is also governed by that provider's own terms of service and privacy policy
- You are responsible for maintaining the security of your third-party account; if your Google or Microsoft account is compromised, your BioSure account may also be at risk
- You may revoke BioSure's access to your third-party account at any time through the provider's settings; this will prevent future sign-in via that method but will not automatically delete your BioSure account
3.3 Account Security
You are responsible for:
- Maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials (whether email/password or third-party sign-in)
- Changing your password upon first login when required by the system
- All activities that occur under your account
- Immediately notifying us of any unauthorized use of your account
We implement the following security measures to protect your account:
- Passwords are hashed using bcrypt and are never stored in plaintext
- Account lockout is automatically activated after a configurable number of failed login attempts
- Sessions are managed through JWT-based access tokens and refresh tokens with defined expiry periods
- Third-party sign-in uses industry-standard OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect protocols
- Rate limiting is applied to prevent brute-force attacks
3.4 User Roles and Permissions
The Service operates with a hierarchical permission model consisting of five user roles:
- Super Admin: Platform-level administrators (RainerTek LLC) with oversight across all lab tenants
- Lab Admin: Laboratory owners/directors with full control over their lab tenant, including employee management, company onboarding, and report approval
- Lab Employee: Laboratory technicians and staff with access to sample processing, result entry, and report generation as permitted by their assigned role
- Company Admin: Client organization managers with access to reports, CoC submission, employee management, and scheduling for their company
- Company Employee: Client organization staff with access to view reports and notifications for their company
Access is further controlled through granular role-based access control (RBAC), which allows per-module and per-action permission configuration, as well as per-user permission overrides. You agree to use the Service only within the scope of the permissions assigned to your account.
4. Subscription and Access
4.1 Service Plans

The Service includes an automated Report Generator that produces PDF lab reports from your CoC and sample result data. You acknowledge that:
- The Report Generator processes the data you have entered and produces reports based on that data
- The accuracy of generated reports is dependent on the accuracy of the input data

7.3 Regulatory Compliance Readiness
While the Service is designed with regulatory compliance in mind (USP 797 workflows, audit trails, electronic signature support, 21 CFR Part 11 readiness), the Service does not itself constitute regulatory compliance. You remain solely responsible for ensuring that your laboratory operations, testing procedures, and reporting practices comply with all applicable regulations, standards, and guidelines, including USP 797, USP 800, ISO 17025, 21 CFR Part 11, and any state or federal requirements.
