ONKOLOGIKOA cannot accept any liability whatsoever for the use or access made by users outside the sphere covered by the Portal, nor for any consequences that may arise due to the lack of utility, adaptation or validity of the Portal and/or its services and contents with a view to satisfying the needs, activities or specific outcomes and expectations of its users, or for any outcomes arising from practical application of the opinions, recommendations or studies accessible through the Portal, in which case the final liability will always correspond to the user.

ONKOLOGIKOA expressly forbids framing and the use by third parties of any other mechanisms capable of changing the design, original configuration or content of its Portal.

Portal content

The Portal has the objective of promoting the activities carried out and the services provided by ONKOLOGIKOA, meaning that the information contained herein does not constitute a binding offer.

The Portal may also contain articles on health, medical and hospital-related subjects, news or any other kind of information considered by ONKOLOGIKOA to be of interest, the contents of which reflect the opinion of their authors, but not necessarily that of ONKOLOGIKOA.

ONKOLOGIKOA reserves the right to make changes in the Portal without prior warning, with the objective of updating, correcting, changing, adding or removing contents from the Portal or its design. The Portal contents are updated periodically. Given that their updating is not immediate, we suggest that you always double check the validity and accuracy of the information contained in the Portal.

Warning to patients and/or their family members

The medical content potentially available on this website must not be used to diagnose or treat any kind of problem. ONKOLOGIKOA accepts absolutely no liability for harm of any kind arising from the lack of accuracy, exactness, exhaustiveness or updatedness of the contents of the www.onkologikoa.org website, with the exception of those directly attributable to the institute. If you have or suspect that you have a health problem, please consult your doctor.

Technological virus and failures

ONKOLOGIKOA neither controls nor guarantees the absence of viruses or other elements in the contents which could cause alterations in the user’s computer system (software and hardware), documents or files. ONKOLOGIKOA therefore accepts no liability for damage suffered by the user due to the existence of viruses or other elements in the Portal.

ONKOLOGIKOA cannot guarantee that information conveyed over the Internet is completely secure due to numerous factors beyond its control. ONKOLOGIKOA does not accept liability for any damage suffered by the user due to potential contingencies when transmitting information, such as data loss, for reasons beyond our control.

However, we inform you that ONKOLOGIKOA works on the basis of a security policy when processing personal data in compliance with current Spanish law.

However, these pages are not the property of ONKOLOGIKOA, nor is their content revised by ONKOLOGIKOA, meaning that it does not accept liability for them, for the way the linked page functions, or for any potential damage which may arise as a result of its use.

No link to a website or email address will be allowed on the Portal, except when express written authorisation has been received from ONKOLOGIKOA, which can be withdrawn at any time.
