Terms & Conditions

 

These Terms and Conditions apply to your use of rwandaheartcentre.org (“the website”), operated by the Rwanda Heart Care and Research Foundation (“the Foundation”, “we”, “us” or “our”). By using the website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.

About the website
The website provides general information about the Foundation, its plans and activities, and ways to support its work. The Foundation’s public materials describe its aim to develop cardiovascular healthcare, training and research in Rwanda. Website information is provided for general information and may change as projects develop.

Not medical advice or an emergency service

The website does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment and does not create a doctor-patient relationship. Do not rely on website content to make medical decisions. If you need medical advice, contact a qualified healthcare professional. The website is not an emergency service. If you believe someone needs urgent medical attention, contact local emergency services or go to the nearest appropriate medical facility.

Donations
Donation links on the website may take you to Flutterwave or another third-party payment service. Payments are processed under that provider’s terms and privacy notice. Please check the amount and currency before submitting a donation. Our Refund Policy explains how to request review of an erroneous, duplicate or unauthorized donation. Unless a donation page expressly says otherwise, a donation is a voluntary contribution and does not purchase a product or guarantee a particular service or outcome.

Acceptable use
You may use the website only for lawful purposes. You must not misuse the website, interfere with its security or operation, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, or use it in a way that infringes another person’s rights. You must not submit information that is unlawful, harmful, misleading or that you are not Authorised to share.

Website content and intellectual property
Unless otherwise stated, the Foundation or its licensors own or are Authorised to use the content on this website, including text, photographs, graphics and logos. You may view and print reasonable extracts for personal, non-commercial reference, provided you do not remove attribution or notices. You must obtain our written permission before reproducing, adapting or commercially using website content. Third-party names, logos and content remain the property of their respective owners.

Accuracy, availability and external links
We take reasonable care when preparing website content but do not guarantee that it is complete, current or free from errors. We may update, suspend or remove any part of the website at any time. The website may link to third-party websites or services. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, security or privacy practices. A link does not mean that the Foundation endorses the third party.

Liability
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. Subject to that, the website is provided for general information and we are not liable for loss arising from reliance on its content, interruption or unavailability of the website, or the acts or omissions of third-party sites and services, except to the extent that applicable law does not permit that limitation.

Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information collected through the website. By using the website, you acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to read it.

Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The revised version will be published on this page with its updated date. Your continued use of the website after a change takes effect means you accept the revised terms.
Governing law and contact.

These terms are governed by the laws of Rwanda, and the courts of Rwanda will have jurisdiction, subject to any mandatory legal rights or protections that apply to you in your country of residence.
