These terms govern your use of ilitsociety.org (the “site”), run by ILIT Society (“we”, “us”). By using the site you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
1. What the site is
ILIT Society publishes a directory of allergists who offer intralymphatic immunotherapy (ILIT), together with articles about the treatment. The site is an information resource. It is not a medical practice, it does not provide medical advice, and nothing on it creates a doctor–patient relationship.
ILIT is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for any allergen. Where it is offered in the United States it is administered off-label, at the discretion of the treating physician. Whether it is appropriate for you is a decision for a qualified allergist who has examined you.
2. Listings are not recommendations
A listing means that a practice has told us it offers ILIT under the supervision of a board-certified allergist, and that we have checked that certification against the certifying board’s public records at the time of listing. It does not mean that we have assessed the quality of care, the outcomes, the pricing or the suitability of any practice for you.
- We accept no payment for placement and we do not rank practitioners. Search results are ordered by distance from the place you searched.
- Details such as hours, insurance accepted, costs and the allergens treated are supplied by the practices and may change without our knowledge. Confirm them with the practice before you rely on them.
- We may add, edit, suspend or remove a listing at any time, with or without notice.
3. If you are in an emergency
Do not use this site to seek urgent care. If you are having a severe allergic reaction or any other medical emergency, call 911 or your local emergency number.
4. Requests you send to a practice
Some listings let you ask the practice for a consultation or an appointment. When you send such a request we pass it to the practice by email and keep a copy. The request is not an appointment: nothing is booked until the practice contacts you and confirms. We are not a party to any arrangement you then make with the practice, and the practice’s own terms and privacy notice apply from that point.
5. Articles in the Journal
The Journal explains the treatment in plain language and summarises published research. Articles are written or reviewed by listed allergists, carry the date they were last reviewed and cite their sources where possible. They are general information, not advice about your situation, and may become out of date as new evidence is published.
6. Using the site
You may use the site for its intended purpose: finding a practitioner, reading about ILIT, and, if you are a practitioner, applying for a listing. You agree not to:
- send requests or applications that are false, misleading or made on someone else’s behalf without their permission;
- use automated means to submit forms, or to copy the directory in bulk for republication;
- attempt to gain access to parts of the site that are not public, or to disrupt its operation;
- use the site in any way that breaks the law or infringes anyone’s rights.
Assistants and search engines may read the public pages of the site to answer questions about ILIT and the practices listed here, provided they attribute the information to ILIT Society and do not present it as a recommendation.
7. Practitioners and listings
If you apply for a listing, you confirm that:
- the information you give is accurate and complete, and you will tell us promptly when it changes;
- every practitioner named holds a current licence to practise medicine in the state of each office listed and is board-certified in allergy and immunology, or is supervised by someone who is;
- you hold the rights to any photograph or logo you upload and give us permission to publish it on the site, in the directory and on the badges, for as long as the listing is live;
- you are responsible for your own compliance with the laws and advertising rules that apply to your practice, including what you say about ILIT.
We decide whether to publish a listing. We may decline or remove one without giving a reason, and we will remove it if we learn that any of the confirmations above is untrue. A listing is free; we never charge a practice for placement or for position in results.
Badges
Listed practices may display the “Listed practitioner” and “Find us on ILIT Society” badges on their own websites and materials, unaltered and linking to this site, for as long as their listing is live. The badges remain our property and must be taken down if the listing ends.
8. Intellectual property
The text, design, illustrations and code of the site belong to ILIT Society or its licensors. You may quote short extracts with attribution and a link. Practices keep the rights to the photographs and descriptions they supply and grant us a licence to publish them as described above. Map data is provided by the map providers named on the map and is subject to their terms.
9. Links to other sites
Listings link to the websites and telephone numbers of the practices, and articles may link to published research and other sites. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or their handling of your data.
10. No warranty and limitation of liability
The site is provided “as is”. We do our best to keep it accurate and available, but we do not promise that it is free of errors or interruptions, or that any practice listed is suitable for you.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, ILIT Society and the people who run it are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the site or from your dealings with any practice found through it. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
11. Changes to the site and to these terms
We may change the site and these terms at any time. The date at the top of this page shows when the terms were last updated. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the new terms.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, and any dispute will be heard in the courts of that state.
