Terms of use

1. Educational use only

OncoGx™ provides general educational information about cancer awareness, risk, screening and diagnostics. It is intended to help you understand topics and prepare for conversations with qualified healthcare professionals.

2. No medical advice

Nothing on OncoGx™ is medical advice. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional about any symptom, test or treatment, and never delay seeking care because of something you read here.

3. No diagnosis

The symptom explorer, screening checklist, question generator and other tools do not diagnose any condition, determine whether you need a test, or assess your personal risk.

4. No guarantee of outcomes

We work to keep content accurate and up to date, but medical knowledge and guidelines change, and practice differs between countries. We cannot guarantee that information is complete, current or suitable for your situation.

5. Acceptable use

• Do not use the site to harm others, spread misinformation, or submit content you do not have the right to share.
• Do not attempt to disrupt the site or access it in ways other than the interface provided.
• Do not present OncoGx™ content as your own medical advice or as endorsement of a product or service.

6. Intellectual property for resources

Unless stated otherwise, OncoGx™ resources (films, guides, checklists and posters) may be used, printed and shared free of charge for non-commercial educational purposes, provided that you credit OncoGx™, do not alter the medical content, and do not charge for them. [Placeholder: choose and name a licence, for example CC BY-NC-ND 4.0.] For adaptations, translations or commercial use, contact us.

Stories remain the property of their authors, who grant OncoGx™ permission to publish them as agreed at submission.

7. External links

We link to other organisations' websites for sources and further information. We are not responsible for their content.

8. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, OncoGx™ is not liable for any loss or harm arising from use of, or reliance on, information on this site. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
