Legal Notices

Although we use reasonable efforts to provide accurate and up-to-date information through the Site, and in the Systems, neither GSK nor any Third Party Service Provider makes any warranties or representations as to the availability, accuracy, reliability, uptime or uninterrupted access, or completeness of content on the Site and any Systems. To the fullest extent permitted by law, GSK disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, with regard to information contained on the site and any service, including all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

Nothing on this Site constitutes an invitation or offer to invest or deal in the shares, securities or ADRs of GSK or any of its affiliated companies. In particular, actual results and developments may be materially different from any forecast, opinion or expectation expressed on this Site (or any System you may access through the account provided via this Site) and the past performance of the price of shares or securities must not be relied on as a guide to their future performance.

GSK offers products and services to diagnose, prevent and treat disease. Its prescription medicines, for prescription by healthcare professionals, are regulated by government agencies in each of the countries in which it does business, such as the Food and Drug Administration in the United States of America or the Medicines Control Agency in the United Kingdom.

These regulations often restrict the prescribing information that can be disclosed to the public so that you need to consult with your health care professional. You may also need to visit other healthcare Web sites to find out more about prescription products.

In spite of GSK’s efforts, the information in this Site or any Systems may become out of date over time. Nothing on this Site (nor in any Systems) should be construed as the giving of advice or the making of a recommendation and it should not be relied on as the basis for any decision or action. It is important that you rely only on the advice of a health care professional to advise you on your specific situation, if you are considering any aspect of the use of GSK products. GSK accepts no liability for the accuracy or completeness or use of, nor any liability to update, the information contained on this Site or in the Systems.

Access to the Site and Systems is provided on an "as is" basis, without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.

Confidentiality

Subject to the provisions of any written agreement between you and GSK, all information in or available through the Systems shall be deemed to be confidential to GSK and you agree (i) to protect all such GSK information as you do your own information of a similar nature, but in any case to use at least reasonable measures to protect such information from unauthorized disclosure and use, and (ii) to obtain GSK’s express written consent prior to disclosing any such information to any third party other than your employees  who need to know such information and are bound in writing to keep such information confidential.  For the avoidance of doubt, GSK Confidential Information shall include, without limitation, GSK data, information created or obtained from GSK’s third party customers, agents, or suppliers, the medical information of any person whatsoever, the computer software and documentation of third parties, and any data or information stored electronically or on backup media.

The Site may be operated from our facilities in the United States of America or the United Kingdom. These Terms of Use are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.
