Terms and Conditions

1. This web site contains information about products that may or may not be available in any particular country, and if applicable, may have received acceptance or market clearance by a governmental regulatory body for different indications and restrictions in different countries. Each country has specific laws, regulations and medical practices governing the communication of medical or other information about medical products on the Internet. Nothing herein should be construed as a solicitation or promotion for any product, or as an indication that any product has been authorized by the laws and regulations of the country where the user of this website resides. By using this site, you agree to make your own enquiries about the availability of products and the extent to which, if required, they have market clearance.

2. This web site may contain information on medical and health-related topics. This information is provided for educational purposes only and is not meant to be a substitute for the medical advice provided by your own physician or other medical professional. OAS assumes no responsibility for how this information is used. You should not use this information for diagnosing a health problem or disease but should always consult your own physician. In addition, although OAS tries to keep this web site as current as possible, please be aware that health care information, by its very nature, changes quite rapidly, so some materials may occasionally be out of date.

3. OAS makes no representations, guarantees or warranties about the suitability of any information, contained in or referred to in this web site, for any purpose.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain guarantees or warranties, so the above exclusions may not apply to you. However, in those circumstances, OAS has no liability beyond that implied by law. This web site may contain links to web sites controlled by parties other than OAS. OAS does not review, is not responsible for, and does not endorse the contents, policies, or use of these third-party web sites. Any links to other web sites are provided as merely a convenience to the users of this web site and your decision to view or use any of such linked web sites is entirely at your own risk.
