Terms of Use

These terms set out the understanding between you and Save Your Knees when you use this website. They are meant to be fair and readable, not a wall of fine print, and they sit alongside our Privacy Policy.

Agreeing to these terms

By browsing saveyourknees.org you accept these terms and our Privacy Policy. If any part does not suit you, the simplest course is not to use the site.

Education and support, not medical advice

Everything here is written to help you understand knee replacement, from the decision through to life with a new knee. It is general education and patient support, not medical advice, and it cannot replace a conversation with your own surgeon, physiotherapist, or care team, who know your circumstances. In particular, nothing here decides whether you need surgery, whether a total or partial replacement suits your knee, or how your own rehabilitation should be run. Please read our Medical Disclaimer, which forms part of these terms, before relying on anything you find.

Our content and how you may use it

Unless we say otherwise, the writing, structure, and design on this site belong to The New Knee Guide and are protected by copyright. You are welcome to read it for your own non-commercial use, link to our pages, and quote a short passage with clear credit. Republishing or redistributing substantial parts without our written permission is not allowed. Please do not present our material as clinical instruction or as your own.

Using the site sensibly

Please use the site honestly and considerately. Do not try to disrupt or overload it, access it through automated tools that place an unreasonable burden on it, or use it for any unlawful purpose.

Links to other sites

We sometimes point to other websites, such as professional bodies, registries, and research, for further reading. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. Following an external link is at your own discretion.

Warranties and liability

We work to keep the information accurate and current, but we cannot warrant that it is complete, error-free, or suited to any particular situation, and it is provided “as is”. To the fullest extent the law allows, Save Your Knees is not liable for any loss, injury, or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, this site or its content. Decisions about surgery and recovery carry real consequences and rest with you and your clinical team.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the site grows or the law changes. The “Last updated” date above reflects the current version, and your continued use of the site means you accept it. If you have a question, we are happy to hear from you through the Contact page.
