7.2 Accuracy of Generated Content

While we strive for accuracy in our Generated Content, we do not guarantee that the questions, explanations, or other generated materials will be error-free, comprehensive, or suitable for your specific educational needs. Users should verify important information through additional sources. The Service is designed as a study aid and not as a primary source of academic information.

7.3 Not Professional Advice and No Liability for Application of Information

THE SERVICE IS NOT INTENDED TO PROVIDE MEDICAL, HEALTHCARE, LEGAL, FINANCIAL, OR PROFESSIONAL ADVICE OF ANY KIND, AND WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY CONSEQUENCES RESULTING FROM RELIANCE ON OR APPLICATION OF INFORMATION OBTAINED THROUGH THE SERVICE.

SPECIFICALLY:

  • Medical/Healthcare: Even when the Service processes medical or healthcare-related educational materials, the Generated Content is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of qualified healthcare providers with any questions regarding medical conditions or treatments. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on the Service. RevisionEngine does not recommend or endorse any specific tests, doctors, products, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned on the Service.

    We explicitly disclaim all liability for any actions taken based on medical information in the Generated Content, including but not limited to incorrect treatments, dosages, diagnoses, or procedures that may appear in our questions or explanations. This disclaimer applies even if you later use this information in a professional capacity after qualification, as our Service is solely for study purposes and not for clinical reference.

  • Legal: The Service does not provide legal advice. No content on the Service should be construed as legal advice or as creating a solicitor-client relationship. Laws vary by jurisdiction, and the content may not apply to your specific circumstances. Any legal concepts or principles presented in the Generated Content are for educational purposes only and may be incomplete, outdated, or inapplicable to your situation.

  • Financial/Business: The Service does not provide financial, investment, tax, or business advice. Any financial or business content is for educational purposes only and is not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any assets, or to engage in any specific financial or business strategy. The application of concepts presented in the Generated Content to real-world financial decisions is entirely at your own risk.

  • Engineering/Technical: The Generated Content may include information about engineering principles, technical specifications, or design concepts. This information is not verified for practical application and should not be used for actual engineering, construction, or technical implementations without independent verification from qualified professionals and compliance with relevant standards and regulations.

  • Other fields: In all other fields, including but not limited to chemistry, physics, biology, psychology, sociology, and education, the information in our Generated Content should be considered supplementary study material only. We do not guarantee its accuracy, completeness, or suitability for any purpose beyond study preparation.

You acknowledge and agree that you will not hold RevisionEngine liable for any damages or losses that may result from your application, implementation, or reliance on any information obtained through the Service, whether in an academic, professional, or any other context. If you require professional advice in any field, consult with a qualified professional in that field.
