Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Use govern access to and use of KneeBraceVerdict, an affiliate-supported review and comparison site operated by Susanna Sheppard. By using the site, a visitor agrees to these Terms and any related policies referenced here. If a visitor does not agree, the prudent step is to stop using the site.
Use of Site (research and education only; not professional advice)
The site is intended for research and education only. Its content may help readers compare knee braces, features, and general product information, but it does not provide medical, legal, or other professional advice. Readers should not treat any article, chart, or summary as a substitute for advice from a qualified clinician or other appropriate adviser. Purchasing decisions remain the reader’s responsibility, and results vary based on individual needs, health conditions, and product selection.
No Warranty / Editorial Nature (reviews reflect editorial judgment based on public information, not laboratory testing)
All reviews, comparisons, rankings, and commentary reflect editorial judgment based on public information, manufacturer materials, pricing pages, customer feedback, and similar sources available at the time of publication. The site is not represented as laboratory-tested, clinically validated, or universally applicable. Many customer reviews describe helpful fit or support, but results vary and individual experiences may differ. Content may age, and some details can become outdated without notice.
Intellectual Property (content is owned by the site / entity; trademarks belong to their respective owners)
Unless stated otherwise, the text, layout, selection, arrangement, and original graphics on the site are owned by Susanna Sheppard or used with permission. Trademarks, product names, and logos belong to their respective owners. Mention of any third-party brand does not imply sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation beyond what is expressly disclosed.
Affiliate Links (disclose that purchases through links may earn a commission; see Disclosure)
KneeBraceVerdict is an affiliate-supported review and comparison site. Some links on the site are affiliate links, which means purchases made through those links may earn a commission for the site at no additional cost to the reader. That commission can help support editorial work and site maintenance. For more detail on link relationships and monetization, see the site’s Disclosure page.
Limitation of Liability (site is provided "as is"; results and purchasing decisions are the reader’s responsibility)
The site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind to the fullest extent permitted by law. The site does not guarantee that content will be error-free, current, uninterrupted, or suitable for a particular purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Susanna Sheppard and related parties are not liable for losses arising from use of the site, reliance on its content, or purchasing decisions made by readers. Results vary, and individual experiences may differ.
Changes to Terms
These Terms may be updated from time to time to reflect legal, editorial, or operational changes. The revised version becomes effective when posted on the site unless a later effective date is stated. Continued use of the site after changes are posted may be treated as acceptance of the updated Terms.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Australia, Au, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute connected with these Terms or the site will be handled under that governing law, subject to any rights that cannot be excluded by applicable law.
