Who offers this website
This website is offered by Social Vision, a 501(c)(3) public charity in the United States, and Fundación Social Vision Cuenca (FUSOVI), a registered foundation in Ecuador, together "the foundation". By using the website you accept these terms.
Information, not medical advice
Everything on this website is general information about the foundation’s work. It is not medical advice, does not create a doctor-patient relationship and does not replace a consultation. In an emergency in Ecuador call 911 (ECU 911) or go to the nearest hospital emergency department.
Requests for help
Sending a help request does not create an entitlement to assistance. Every request is reviewed, support depends on available funds and on what partner hospitals and doctors can offer, and the foundation will always answer. Please give honest information; assistance granted on false information may be withdrawn.
Gifts
Gifts are received by the organization named beside each giving method and are governed by the Giving terms, which cover acknowledgments, restricted gifts, refunds and recurring gifts.
The community directory
Directory listings are provided for information. They are not medical recommendations for your particular case, do not make appointments and do not decide eligibility for assistance. Fees and care are agreed directly with the provider, and the foundation is not responsible for the services of listed providers.
Content and photographs
Text, photographs and the foundation’s emblem belong to the foundation or are used with permission; photographs of Cuenca are openly licensed and credited on the Photo credits page. Photographs of people are published with their consent and may not be copied or reused. You may quote short passages of text with a link to this website.
Your use of the website
Please do not send content that is unlawful, abusive or not yours to share, and do not attempt to interfere with the website or reach information that is not public. Forms carry simple protections against automated misuse.
Links to other websites
Links to giving providers, partner hospitals, social networks and directory listings lead to websites the foundation does not control. Their own terms and privacy policies apply there.
Availability and changes
The foundation aims to keep the website available and accurate but cannot promise it will always be so. It may change the website or these terms at any time; the current terms are always the ones published here.
