Last Updated: March 20, 2026

The Cancer Fund (the parent company), United Cancer Network (d/b/a of The Cancer Fund), its employees, creators, board of directors, officers, volunteers, affiliates, and related parties (collectively, “United Cancer Network”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) provide the mobile application, website, and related services (collectively, the “App” or “Services”) as a nonprofit digital platform dedicated to improving access to trustworthy, community-based cancer resources. The Services include curated educational content, navigation tools, connections to local and national organizations, digital notebook features, and other supportive resources.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the App or Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, Medical Disclaimer, and any applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, please do not use the App or Services.

2. Purpose of the Services

United Cancer Network is a nonprofit digital resource network designed to connect individuals and families affected by cancer with reliable information, local and national support resources, and navigation tools. The Services are provided solely for general informational, educational, supportive, and navigational purposes. We are not a healthcare provider and do not offer, provide, or substitute for professional medical care, diagnosis, treatment, mental health services, or any other professional advice. Nothing in the Services constitutes medical, legal, financial, or other professional advice.

3. User Responsibility

You agree to use the App and Services only for lawful purposes and in a manner consistent with our mission to support individuals and families affected by cancer. You are solely responsible for:

  • Evaluating the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, and usefulness of any information, content, or resources found on or through the Services.
  • Consulting licensed medical professionals, qualified healthcare providers, or other appropriate experts for any personal medical, health, or mental health decisions.
  • Protecting your login credentials (if applicable), maintaining the confidentiality of any personal information you choose to share (including in digital notebook features, forms, or community elements), and safeguarding against unauthorized access to your account.
  • Complying with all applicable laws in your use of the Services.

4. Third-Party Links and Resources

The Services may contain links to third-party websites, organizations, resources, services, or content for convenience and informational purposes only. We do not control, endorse, sponsor, or assume any responsibility for the content, accuracy, privacy practices, availability, or safety of any third-party sites, products, services, or materials. Inclusion of a link or reference does not imply any affiliation, endorsement, or partnership. You access and use any external resources at your own risk.

5. Limitation of Liability and Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE CANCER FUND, UNITED CANCER NETWORK (D/B/A OF THE CANCER FUND), ITS EMPLOYEES, CREATORS, BOARD OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, VOLUNTEERS, AFFILIATES, AND RELATED PARTIES PROVIDE THE APP, SERVICES, AND ALL CONTENT ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR FREEDOM FROM ERRORS, VIRUSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE CANCER FUND, UNITED CANCER NETWORK, AND ITS RELATED PARTIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP, SERVICES, OR ANY CONTENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, DATA, USE, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, PERSONAL INJURY, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, HEALTH OUTCOMES, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES—EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

This limitation applies regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, or otherwise) and includes, without limitation, any claims related to reliance on any information, third-party resources, user-generated content, or service interruptions.

OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS, THE APP, OR SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIFTY DOLLARS ($50).

You assume full responsibility for your use of the App, Services, and any linked or referenced resources. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages or liability, the above limitations may not apply fully to you, in which case our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

6. Privacy and Data Use

We respect your privacy and handle personal information in accordance with applicable data protection laws. Please review our separate Privacy Policy (linked in the App or on our site) for details on how we collect, use, store, share, and protect information.

7. Modifications and Updates

We reserve the right to modify, update, or discontinue any part of these Terms, the App, or Services at any time, in our sole discretion, without prior notice (except as required by law). Continued use of the App or Services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

8. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the District of Columbia and the United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes arising out of or related to these Terms or your use of the Services shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in the District of Columbia, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts. To the extent permitted by law, you waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action.

9. Miscellaneous

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision shall not constitute a waiver. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the subject matter and supersede any prior agreements.
