Thank you for your interest in linking to the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network’s website(s).

List of FAAN’s Websites

Linking To FAAN’s Websites

The Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN) encourages and permits text links to content on FAAN’s website(s), provided that any such link uses the following guidelines when setting up a link to FAAN’s websites.

  1. FAAN does NOT endorse companies, products or services, and strictly prohibits any suggestion of endorsement, recommendation, or superiority of one company, product, or service over another company, product or service. Additionally, you may not represent that you have, or your organization has, a relationship with FAAN or any of the events, products, or services that FAAN provides unless that relationship is the subject of a written agreement that has been signed by FAAN.
  2. FAAN does not allow framing of its website(s), or use of other techniques that may alter in any way their visual presentation or appearance of FAAN’s website(s). When setting up a link to FAAN’s website(s), it should open in a new Web browser window rather than displaying the pages in a frame of the linking site’s Web template.
  3. Links directly to FAAN’s website(s) should be text-only. You may not use FAAN’s logo on external websites or as a profile picture on social networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook, or YouTube, without permission in the form of a signed agreement with FAAN.
  4. You may use one of these lead-in sentences with your text link to FAAN’s website(s):

FAAN’s mission is to raise public awareness, to provide advocacy and education, and to advance research on behalf of all those affected by food allergies and anaphylaxis.

FAAN is the trusted source of information about food allergies.

  1. FAAN does not allow other websites to copy and reuse information or material(s) from FAAN’s websites without specific, written permissions.

  2. FAAN shall have no responsibility or liability for any content appearing on your website. You agree to indemnify and defend FAAN against all claims arising out of or based upon your website.

  3. FAAN reserves the right to withdraw permission for any link at any time.

Linking From FAAN’s Websites

  1. When FAAN’s website(s) links to other sites maintained by third parties, over which FAAN has no control, FAAN does not assume any responsibility or liability for any communications or materials available at the sites to which it links, including responsibility or liability for their accuracy or for any damages resulting or arising from the use of any of their products and/or services. A link on FAAN’s website does not imply endorsement or recommendation by FAAN. The links are shown solely for users’ information and convenience. Users should do their own diligence to determine what products and/or services are right for their use.

  2. FAAN does not provide links from its website(s) to external sites except as specified by a pre-existing sponsorship agreement/contract, partnership, or other contractual business relationship.

FAAN reserves the right to add, modify and delete these guidelines at any time at FAAN’s sole discretion.
