These Terms of Service explain the rules for using healthclaritynotes.com, operated as Health Clarity Notes. By reading or using this site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Informational purpose
Health Clarity Notes is an informational health website. We publish plain language guides about everyday health questions, long term conditions, common tests and healthy routines for readers in the United States. The content is general background information. It is written to help you understand health topics and to help you have better conversations with your own care team.
The site is not a healthcare provider. It does not offer consultations, diagnoses, prescriptions, treatment plans or personal health records, and it does not sell medical services.
No medical advice and no doctor patient relationship
Nothing on this site is medical advice for you personally. The guides describe conditions, tests and routines in general terms, based on official sources. They cannot take account of your personal history, your medicines, your other conditions or your test results, and they must not be used as a substitute for the judgment of a clinician who knows you.
Reading this site, leaving a comment or sending us a message does not create a doctor patient relationship, or any other professional relationship, between you and Health Clarity Notes, its editors or its writers.
Always seek the advice of your own doctor or another qualified clinician with any questions you may have about a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice, and never delay seeking it, because of something you have read on this site. If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your local emergency number or go to your nearest emergency department immediately.
Acceptable use
You may use this site for your own personal, non commercial reading. You agree not to misuse the site. In particular, you agree not to attempt to break into the site or its systems, not to interfere with its operation, not to submit spam or harmful content through forms or comments, and not to present content from this site as your own work.
Comments, where enabled, must be respectful and lawful. Do not post personal health information about yourself or anyone else in a public comment. We may remove comments and may block users who misuse the site, without notice.
Content ownership and limited licence
The text and design of this site belong to Health Clarity Notes, except where content belongs to others and is credited to them. All rights not granted in these terms are reserved.
You are granted a limited licence to read the content, to print or save a copy for your own personal use, and to share links to pages on this site. You may quote a short extract from an article if you credit Health Clarity Notes clearly and link back to the original page. You may not republish whole articles, sell the content, or use it to build a competing collection without our written permission first.
References to official sources, and the names of organisations such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health and MedlinePlus, belong to those organisations. Mentioning a source on this site does not mean that the organisation endorses this site or its content.
External links
Articles on this site link to pages on other websites, including official United States public health sources, so that you can read the original guidance. Those websites are outside our control. We are not responsible for their content, their accuracy or their privacy practices, and a link does not mean we endorse everything on the linked site. If a link stops working or a linked page changes, we will correct it when we become aware of the change.
Accuracy and changes
We research every guide using official sources and we check the facts against those sources before publication. Even so, health guidance changes over time, and we cannot guarantee that every page is complete, current and free of error at every moment. Where we find an error, we will correct it.
We may change, update or remove content on this site at any time, and we may change these Terms of Service from time to time. When the terms change, we will update the date at the top of this page, and the revised terms will apply from that date.
Liability limits
To the fullest extent allowed by law, Health Clarity Notes, its editors and its writers are not liable for any loss or harm arising from your use of this site or your reliance on its content. The content is provided as general information only, on an as is basis, without warranties of any kind about its accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law. Decisions about your health are yours and your clinician’s, and this site’s role is limited to providing background information.
Governing note
These terms are intended to be read in a general and fair way. If any part of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining parts will continue to apply. The laws that govern your use of this site are those that apply where the site is operated, without affecting any rights you have as a consumer under your own local law.
