1. Acceptance
By using this site, you agree to read these terms and the linked policies. If you do not agree, please stop using the site. These terms apply from the moment a reader loads any page of trenvol.info, and continued browsing after this page has been updated, as described in section 11 below, constitutes ongoing acceptance of the current version. The linked policies referred to here include the Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy and Disclaimer, each of which forms part of the overall terms governing use of the site even though they are published as separate pages for clarity. An edge case worth noting is a reader who accesses the site through a cached or archived copy, such as a search engine cache; because that copy may not reflect the current version of these terms, only the live version published at trenvol.info should be treated as authoritative. If a particular reader operates on behalf of an organisation rather than as an individual, these terms still apply to that reader personally, since Trenvol does not offer a separate organisational or commercial licence to use the site.
2. Editorial purpose
Trenvol provides general information about men's bone and joint wellbeing. Articles are not personal advice and should not be treated as a substitute for a conversation with a qualified professional. This editorial purpose is set out in more detail in the Disclaimer, which readers should treat as forming part of these terms, and the two pages are intended to be read together rather than in isolation. For example, an article discussing weight-bearing activity or nutrient intake is written for a general adult audience and, as explained in the Disclaimer, cannot account for an individual reader's health history, current supplement routine or existing care plan. Where an article references a specific study or nutrient claim, the wording is chosen to reflect UK nutrition and health claims rules and to avoid suggesting that any general statement applies with certainty to a particular reader's circumstances. Trenvol does not manufacture, distribute or sell any supplement, device or other product, and no page on this site should be read as an offer or recommendation to purchase a specific product from any third party.
3. Accuracy
We work to keep pages clear and current, but information can change. We do not promise that every statement is complete, current or suitable for every reader. Our editorial process includes periodic review of published material, generally at least once every twelve months as described in the Disclaimer, though a delay can exist between new research becoming available and an article being updated to reflect it. An edge case involves a source that is later retracted or substantially revised after a Trenvol article referencing it has been published; where we become aware of such a change, we aim to update or annotate the relevant article, but we cannot guarantee that every reader who previously viewed the page will see the correction. Because the site does not require a reader to create an account or log in, we have no reliable way to notify past visitors directly of a subsequent correction, and a reader who wishes to stay current should check an article again before relying on any specific figure or claim within it.
4. Acceptable use
Use the site lawfully. Do not attempt to disrupt hosting, upload harmful code, impersonate another person or harvest contact details. Automated access must respect reasonable technical limits. Examples of prohibited conduct include attempting to overload the server with excessive automated requests, scraping the site at a rate that degrades performance for other readers, or using the contact form to send unsolicited bulk messages to the editorial team. A reasonable technical limit for automated access means respecting the directives published in robots.txt and avoiding a request rate that a typical human reader browsing manually could not replicate. Where Trenvol identifies conduct that breaches this section, we reserve the right to block the offending IP address or user agent at the hosting level without prior notice, since the purpose of this section is to protect the availability of the site for genuine readers rather than to create a formal enforcement process.
5. Intellectual property
Text, layout and brand elements belong to Trenvol Health Ltd or their licensors. You may read and share a link for personal, non-commercial reference. Reproducing substantial material requires written permission. This includes the Trenvol wordmark, the site's visual design and typography choices, and the specific wording of published articles, all of which are protected under UK copyright and, where applicable, trade mark law. Sharing a direct link to a Trenvol article, for example in an email or on social media, is expressly permitted and encouraged, since this does not involve copying or reproducing the underlying text. An edge case involves quoting a short passage from an article for the purpose of criticism, review or comment, which may be permitted under the fair dealing exceptions in the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 provided the source is clearly credited; reproduction of a substantial portion of an article for any other purpose, including republishing it on another website, requires prior written permission from Trenvol Health Ltd, which can be requested using the contact details in section 7.
6. External links
Links may lead to independent services. Trenvol is not responsible for their availability, content or privacy practices. A link is provided for reader convenience rather than endorsement. As explained further in the Disclaimer, an external link that was accurate and functioning at the time an article was published may later point to a page that has moved, changed significantly or been taken down entirely, and Trenvol reviews outbound links periodically but cannot guarantee that every one remains current at all times. Following an external link may also expose a reader to that destination's own cookies, tracking technologies and terms of use, none of which are governed by this page or by Trenvol's own Cookie Policy. Where an external link leads to a source such as an NHS page or a peer-reviewed study, its inclusion reflects an editorial judgement that the source is relevant to the surrounding text, not a warranty that the linked organisation endorses or is affiliated with Trenvol in any way.
7. Contact forms
Messages should be accurate and relevant. Do not submit confidential records or urgent personal information. We may retain correspondence under the Privacy Policy. In practice, this means avoiding the inclusion of details such as an NHS number, a description of an acute symptom, or any other sensitive personal information in a contact form message, since the form is designed for editorial correspondence such as corrections, accessibility queries or general questions about the site. An edge case involves a message submitted with incomplete or unclear contact details, such as a malformed email address; where this happens, our editorial team may be unable to respond at all, and the reader would need to resubmit the form with corrected details. As set out in the Privacy Policy, editorial enquiries are normally retained for twelve months after the enquiry is closed, and any personal information included in a message is handled according to the retention periods and legal bases described there rather than under any separate rule specific to this page.
8. Availability
We may change, pause or remove a page for maintenance, editorial review or security. We will try to keep the site accessible but cannot promise uninterrupted availability. Planned maintenance is generally scheduled outside of typical UK daytime browsing hours where possible, though an unplanned outage, such as one caused by a hosting provider issue, may occur without advance notice. An edge case involves an article being substantially revised or removed following an editorial review; where a page is removed rather than simply updated, a reader who previously bookmarked its address may receive the custom 404 page rather than the original content, and we do not maintain a permanent archive of every previous version of every article. Trenvol does not offer a service-level guarantee or compensation for any period of downtime, since the site is an editorial resource rather than a paid or transactional service, and no fee is charged to readers for access to its content.
9. Liability
Nothing in these terms limits liability where the law does not allow it to be limited. Subject to that, Trenvol is not liable for decisions made solely from general editorial material. This means that liability for matters such as death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud, is never excluded or limited by these terms, in line with mandatory protections under English law. Beyond those mandatory protections, and to the fullest extent permitted, Trenvol Health Ltd will not be liable for any loss arising from a reader's reliance on a general statement in an article, from the unavailability of the site during maintenance or an outage as described in section 8, or from the content of any external website linked from trenvol.info. An edge case involves indirect or consequential loss, such as a reader claiming a knock-on financial loss connected to a decision informed by an article; this type of loss is excluded to the extent the law allows, consistent with the site's stated purpose as a source of general information rather than individualised advice.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Courts in that jurisdiction may hear disputes, subject to mandatory protections that apply to consumers. This reflects the registered office of Trenvol Health Ltd at 38 Surrey Street, Sheffield S1 2GU, and is consistent with the governing law provisions used elsewhere on the site, including in the Disclaimer. Where a reader is based outside England and Wales, mandatory consumer protection rules in their own country of residence may still apply and are not overridden by this section, particularly where those rules cannot lawfully be excluded by a website's terms. An edge case involves a dispute that also touches on data protection matters; in that situation, a reader retains the separate right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office as described in the Privacy Policy, independently of any dispute governed by this section, since the ICO's jurisdiction over data protection complaints is not affected by the general governing law clause here.
11. Updates
Reviewed 24 September 2026. Updated terms will be posted on this page with a new review date. Continuing to use the site after an update indicates acceptance of the revised terms. A previous review, completed in the first quarter of 2026, checked that the wording of the liability and governing law sections remained consistent with the equivalent language used in the Disclaimer and Privacy Policy, and no material change to substance was needed at that time. Where a future revision does change the substance of a section, such as the acceptable use rules in section 4 or the liability position in section 9, we intend to update the review date shown here so that a returning reader can identify at a glance whether the terms have changed since an earlier visit. We do not currently operate a notification system that emails registered users about changes to these terms, since the site does not require account creation, so a reader who wishes to stay informed of updates should check this page periodically, particularly before relying on any specific clause for a decision.
