Does a medical disclaimer protect me from lawsuits?

It helps show readers were told the content isn't personal medical advice, but it won't protect you if the content itself is negligent or misleading. Licensed practitioners should get specific advice about professional obligations.

Is it really free? Do I need an account?

Yes, and no. Every generator is free with no sign-up, watermark or paywall. Your answers stay in your browser; they are never sent to our server unless you use the optional AI clause writer or policy checker.

Is a generated policy legal advice?

No. PolicyForge produces a starting template from your answers. It cannot know every detail of your business or every law that applies to you. Read the whole document, replace every [bracketed] placeholder, make sure it describes what you actually do, and have a lawyer review it if you handle sensitive data, sell to children, or operate at scale.

Make it visible where it matters

A footer link alone is weak. Put a one-line notice at the top or bottom of health articles ("This article is for general information and isn't medical advice"), and link to the full disclaimer.

A disclaimer does not make inaccurate health claims acceptable. In the US, the FTC requires health claims in advertising to be backed by competent and reliable scientific evidence, whatever your disclaimer says.
