By accessing or using HeartBuddi, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our Platform.

1. Medical Disclaimer & No Doctor-Patient Relationship

HEARTBUDDI IS AN EDUCATIONAL PLATFORM ONLY. WE DO NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE.

  • Educational Purpose: HeartBuddi translates peer-reviewed cardiovascular research into accessible, non-medical language. All content—including articles, summaries, graphics, and resources—is strictly for general informational and educational purposes.
  • No Medical Advice or Diagnosis: Content on HeartBuddi is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or clinical evaluation.
  • No Relationship Created: Using HeartBuddi or communicating with us through the website does not create a physician-patient, healthcare provider-patient, or confidential medical relationship.
  • Consult Your Doctor: Always seek the advice of your physician or another qualified healthcare provider regarding any medical condition, symptoms, or health questions. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on HeartBuddi.
  • Medical Emergencies: IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY (SUCH AS CHEST PAIN, SHORTNESS OF BREATH, OR SYMPTOMS OF A HEART ATTACK OR STROKE), IMMEDIATELY CALL YOUR LOCAL EMERGENCY SERVICES (E.G., 911) OR GO TO THE NEAREST EMERGENCY ROOM.
