Terms of Service
Ground rules for using the site.
These terms describe the basic rules for using Simple Psych. By using the website, you agree to use it only for lawful purposes and to treat it as an informational reference rather than individualized medical advice.
Educational use only
Simple Psych is provided as an educational and informational psychiatry reference. It is not a substitute for professional medical judgment, emergency care, diagnosis, or treatment advice for a specific person.
Users remain responsible for verifying clinical information against current labeling, licensed source materials, guidelines, and local standards of care.
Acceptable use
You agree not to misuse the site, interfere with site availability, attempt unauthorized access, scrape the site in abusive ways, introduce malicious code, or use the content to imply professional advice that the site does not provide.
If automated access becomes disruptive or abusive, the site owner may block or limit that traffic.
External services and links
Simple Psych links to external resources such as PubMed, DrugBank, Drugs.com, crisis resources, and other third-party websites. Those services operate under their own terms and privacy practices.
The site is not responsible for the content, uptime, or policies of external services that are linked from its pages.
Availability and changes
The site may change, expand, restrict features, or go offline at any time without notice. Content may be updated as diagnoses, support pages, references, or site features evolve.
Continued use after updates to these terms means you accept the revised terms.
Limitation of responsibility
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the site is provided on an as-is and as-available basis without guarantees that all content is complete, current, uninterrupted, or error-free.
If you are in crisis or facing an emergency, call 911, call or text 988 in the United States, or use emergency services in your region instead of relying on the website alone.
