Terms of service

Plain-language terms for using this site. The most important one: this is education, not medical advice.

1. Acceptance

By accessing or using Para Cleared (the "Service"), you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

2. What Para Cleared is

Para Cleared is an educational resource about parasites, their symptoms, testing, and treatment options. The content is general information written for a broad audience.

3. Not medical advice

This is the most important term. Nothing on Para Cleared is medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and using the Service does not create a doctor-patient relationship. The tools and articles cannot diagnose you. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider about your own situation, and never delay or disregard professional advice because of something you read here. In an emergency, contact your local emergency services.

4. Acceptable use

5. Intellectual property

The original text, design, and code of Para Cleared belong to us. Several images are used under their own licenses (for example public domain or Creative Commons) and are credited where they appear; those remain the property of their creators under the stated licenses. You may share links freely and use our free downloads for personal, non-commercial purposes.

6. Free downloads

The guides and printables we offer are provided free for personal use. They are educational documents, not prescriptions or treatment plans, and the medical disclaimer above applies to them in full.

7. Third-party and affiliate links

The Service links to outside websites and may include affiliate links, where we could earn a commission if you buy something. A commission never changes our editorial assessment. We are not responsible for the content or practices of third-party sites.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not warrant that the content is complete, current, or error-free, or that the site will always be available.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Para Cleared and its contributors are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Service or its content.

10. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the applicable federal laws of Canada, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You agree that the courts located in British Columbia have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Service.
