Purpose of sites – no medical advice provided
The function of the sites is limited to facilitation of the necessary processes for the Programs. The sites include information and resources to assist pharmacists to undertake the service. Without limiting any other restrictions on the nature and extent of use of your use of the sites, the sites and content of the sites does not constitute and is not a substitute for (a) medical diagnosis; (b) treatment of a patient; (c) provision of medical advice; or (d) calculating or assessing the appropriate dosages of medication. These are all matters for separate professional evaluation and advice.
No supply of medicines
Our sites are intended to facilitate the processes associated with the Programs. We do not supply any medicines directly and do not prescribe or dispense any medicines that are part of the Programs.
Confidentiality obligations
The content of the sites (apart from sections that are publicly accessible without any registration) includes confidential information. You must ensure that all confidential information is only used and disclosed as necessary in order to undertake the Programs.
Warranties
We do not attempt to exclude any conditions, warranties, rights or remedies which you may have pursuant to legislation to the extent that those conditions, warranties, rights and remedies cannot be excluded by agreement (“non-excludable rights”).
Subject to any non-excludable rights: (a) the sites and their contents are provided on an “as is” basis; and (b) all express or implied conditions or warranties of any kind (including but not limited to any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, freedom from contamination by computer viruses, non-infringement of proprietary rights and the accuracy, adequacy, currency, suitability, completeness, legality, reliability or usefulness of any content or other part of the sites) are excluded.
We make no representation and give no warranties as to the completeness, accuracy, adequacy, currency or reliability of any information and shall not be liable for any lack of the foregoing. Descriptions of, or references to, products or publications within the site do not imply endorsement of that product or publication. We are not engaged in rendering medical or other similar advice or professional services. If medical advice or other expert assistance is required, the services of a competent professional should be sought.
If you find any errors or omissions, please report them to us.
Liability arising from use of the sites
Subject to any non-excludable rights: (a) your use of the sites is entirely at your own risk; (b) you hereby release us from any claims you would otherwise have against us now or in future arising directly or indirectly from the sites or your use of the sites; and (c) in no event will we be liable for any damages whatsoever (including, without limitation, direct, indirect, punitive, special, consequential damages, lost profits, lost data or business interruption) arising out of the use, inability to use, or the results of use of the sites, or arising from your purchase or inability to purchase any goods or services offered on the sites whether based on contract, tort, statute, common law, equity or any other legal theory and whether or not advised of the possibility of such damages. Without limitation, this exclusion of liability applies to any loss or damage caused by any deficiency in any site’s performance and any error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, computer virus, communication line failure, theft or destruction or unauthorised access to, alteration of, or use of any material associated with the sites or your attempted use of the sites.
If you are entitled to make any claim against us as a result of non-excludable rights or on any other basis notwithstanding the provisions of these terms, our liability to you for the aggregate of such claims (regardless of the basis on which you are entitled to claim from us) is limited to the provision of the information, products or services again or payment of the cost of providing the information, products or services again (at our election).
Indemnity
You must indemnify each of us and keep each of us indemnified against all claims, liabilities, expenses (including legal fees on a solicitor-client basis) or losses that may be made against or sustained by any of us arising from your breach of these terms or otherwise howsoever from or in connection with your use of the sites.
Inappropriate use and content
You must not use our sites in order to send unsolicited email to recipients who have not given you permission to send them email.

You must not attempt to modify or damage the sites and must not use the sites in connection with any denial of service attack. You must not impersonate any person or entity or enter a fictitious name or purport to be authorised to represent any entity if that entity has not authorised you to do so in connection with your use of the sites. You must not cause or permit any other person to engage in any of these activities (e.g. by providing them with access to your computer or by providing password information to them).
We are not liable for defamatory, offensive, illegal or inappropriate content available at the sites or accessed from the sites and the risk of injury from such content rests entirely with you.
Third-party material
The sites may include content or references supplied by users or other third parties (“third party material”). We do not monitor and accept no liability for third-party material. Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers or other information contained in third party material, is the responsibility of the respective author(s), distributor(s) or providers of that third-party material. We make no representation and give no endorsement of the accuracy, adequacy, currency, suitability, completeness, legality, reliability or usefulness of any third-party material or the identity, knowledge or qualifications of any provider of third-party material. Your access to and reliance on third-party material is entirely at your own risk.
References in third party material to any specific products, process, or service by trade name, trademark, manufacturer, or otherwise, do not constitute or imply their sponsorship, endorsement or recommendation by us, and such references shall not be used for advertising or product endorsement purposes.
Links to third-party websites
Any links to third-party websites from the sites are provided solely as a convenience to you. We make no representation as to the intellectual property rights of any material available on the linked third-party websites or your rights to access, reproduce and use that material. We do not review and monitor any linked third-party websites and we are not responsible for the contents, accuracy, adequacy, currency, suitability, completeness, legality, reliability or usefulness of any material on any third-party website and accept no responsibility for any broken or redirected links. The presence of such links should not be taken to imply any type of association, sponsorship, endorsement, monitoring, approval of, or responsibility for, the linked third-party web site or its content. It is your responsibility to evaluate the content and usefulness of information obtained from other sites. Your access to and reliance on any third-party website is entirely at your own risk.
You acknowledge and agree that we may receive payments or other benefits in connection with links to third-party sites or the inclusion of third-party material in the sites.

We cannot and do not guarantee or warrant that the sites will be free of infection or viruses, worms, Trojan horses or other code that manifests contaminating or destructive properties.

We or third parties own and retain the copyright, trademarks and other intellectual property rights in the materials found at the sites including without limitation web pages, code, software, files, documents, text, designs, graphics, audio and video.

By submitting any material to the sites or to us in connection with your use of the sites, you thereby assign all intellectual property rights in that material to us. You must not submit material to the sites if a third party has any intellectual property rights in that material unless you have obtained the permission of that third party to submit the material. You must indemnify us against all liabilities and losses we sustain if material you submit to the sites infringes any third-party intellectual property rights.

Severance
If any provision of these terms is unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severed from these terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

We may modify the content, nature or accessibility of the sites as and when we see fit. These terms will continue to apply even if you cease to be permitted or able to use all or some part(s) of the sites.
