Terms of use

1. Permitted use

You may read, print and share links for personal, non-commercial reference. Do not scrape, frame, republish or alter material in a way that suggests endorsement. You remain responsible for complying with applicable law and for protecting your own devices. A short quotation may be used when it is proportionate, attributed and accompanied by a link to the relevant page. Automated collection that places unreasonable load on the site, bypasses access controls or reproduces the library is not permitted. If you share a Loreon link, the surrounding description must not imply a professional relationship or personal recommendation. These permissions can be withdrawn where misuse creates security, copyright or accessibility concerns.

2. Editorial information

Articles are prepared for general education and may become outdated. They are not medical advice, diagnosis, a prescription or a substitute for a consultation. Seek urgent assistance through appropriate UK services when symptoms are severe or sudden.

3. Accuracy and updates

We aim for careful, understandable writing and correct errors when identified. Evidence can change, and a page may not reflect new guidance until reviewed. Corrections and material updates are considered through our editorial process.

4. Intellectual property

Text, layout and branding belong to Loreon or its licensors unless otherwise stated. Quotation for criticism or review should be fair, attributed and limited. Permission requests can be sent to the Brighton address.

5. External links

Links may help readers find public authorities, charities or professional resources. Loreon does not control external sites, their availability, privacy practices or content. Visiting an external site is your own decision.

6. Contact submissions

Do not send confidential medical records or information about another person without permission. You grant Loreon permission to use a correction or general question to improve the site only when agreed. We may decline or remove submissions.

7. Availability

We try to keep the site available but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access. Maintenance, hosting incidents, security events or events outside reasonable control may interrupt service. We may change or discontinue pages without notice.

8. Liability

To the extent permitted by UK law, Loreon is not responsible for loss arising from reliance on general editorial material or external links. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including responsibility for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

9. Complaints

Send a clear complaint to 7 The Crescent, Brighton, BN1 1EE, United Kingdom, or call +44 161 743 9182. We aim to acknowledge within five working days and respond with the steps taken or a reasoned explanation.

10. Changes and law

These terms were reviewed on 5 October 2026 and may be updated when the site changes. The laws of England and Wales apply, subject to any mandatory consumer protections that apply to you. The latest version is always shown on this page.

The site is provided for general reading and may contain links to public bodies, publishers or other services whose terms apply separately. A link is supplied for context and does not transfer responsibility for the linked service, its availability or its privacy practices. Readers should check dates, jurisdiction and source material before relying on a page in a personal, professional or commercial decision. If a page contains an obvious error, please contact Loreon with the URL and a concise explanation rather than attempting to alter or disrupt the site. Copyright complaints should identify the protected work, the relevant Loreon passage, the complainant’s contact details and the basis of the request. Loreon will acknowledge a clear notice within five working days and normally review it within 20 working days. Records of resolved notices may be retained for up to 24 months. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot lawfully be excluded under UK law.
