Health information disclaimer

1. General purpose

Evolve publishes general educational material about food and health conditions for UK readers. Pages are not individual medical advice, diagnosis or a treatment plan.

2. Individual differences

Medical history, medicines, allergies, pregnancy, age and access to care can change what is appropriate. A general article cannot account for those factors.

3. Professional care

Speak with a GP, pharmacist, dietitian or other qualified professional before making significant changes. Never stop prescribed treatment based only on website content.

4. Urgent symptoms

Seek urgent help for severe, sudden or worsening symptoms. In an emergency call 999 or use the appropriate NHS service.

5. Sources

We aim to draw on recognised public health and clinical sources and review date-sensitive material. Readers should check current official guidance.

6. Supplements

Supplements can interact with medicines and may vary in quality. Discuss them with a pharmacist before use.

7. Advertising

Any commercial relationship is separated from editorial judgement. We do not guarantee outcomes or endorse products merely because they are mentioned.

8. Accuracy

We work to correct material errors, but no publication can guarantee that every page is complete or current at every moment.

9. Contact

Questions and corrections can be sent to 78 Regent Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M14 4GP or 0161 748 6329.

10. Revision

This disclaimer was reviewed on 5 October 2026 and will be updated when our publishing approach changes.

Identification and separation

Any paid placement, sponsorship or affiliate relationship is labelled in language that a reader can understand. Commercial material is kept visually and editorially distinct from independently prepared articles, and an advertiser does not receive control over conclusions, corrections or source selection. A commercial arrangement may be declined where it would create a material conflict with the publication’s stated purpose.

Advertising partners may receive limited technical information needed to deliver or measure a placement, subject to the cookie choices and privacy information that apply to the site. We do not provide advertisers with a list of readers’ health interests. Optional measurement is not enabled before consent where consent is required by applicable UK privacy rules.

Review, complaints and records

We review wording and placement for clarity, misleading implications, unsuitable targeting and separation from editorial content. Readers who believe an advert is unclear can contact Evolve at 78 Regent Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M14 4GP, or phone 0161 748 6329. We aim to acknowledge a report within five working days and assess it within 20 working days, referring matters to a relevant platform or regulator where appropriate.

Records of a commercial relationship are retained for the length of the arrangement and ordinarily for six years afterwards where needed for accounting, legal or audit purposes. Complaint correspondence is normally retained for 24 months unless a longer period is required to resolve a dispute. This policy does not represent an endorsement of any advertised product or service.

Review record

  • 5 October 2026 — advertising separation and labelling language reviewed.
  • 5 October 2026 — targeting, complaints and retention procedures clarified.

This policy applies to paid placements, sponsorships, affiliate references and other commercial arrangements displayed alongside or within Evolve content. Its purpose is to help readers distinguish editorial information from material supplied or funded by a commercial party. A label is used where a reasonable reader could otherwise misunderstand the relationship or the origin of the wording.

Commercial material is reviewed for clear presentation, appropriate audience context and consistency with applicable UK advertising standards. It must not make unsupported health statements, create an impression of personal advice or use a reader’s sensitive interests as a targeting shortcut. Evolve may decline or remove a placement where the wording, landing page or surrounding presentation does not meet these requirements.

Advertisers may receive limited technical reporting about impressions, clicks, device categories or broad geographic information where that reporting is necessary for the placement. Optional cookies or similar technologies are used only after the relevant consent choice. We do not provide advertisers with a list of named readers or a profile of individual health interests, and processors are expected to follow contractual confidentiality and security requirements.

Readers can report an unclear label, unsuitable placement or misleading impression to 78 Regent Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M14 4GP, or by phone on 0161 748 6329. We aim to acknowledge reports within five working days and assess them within 20 working days, taking account of the placement, the advertiser’s explanation and any relevant platform or regulatory guidance.

Commercial contracts and accounting records are retained for the period required by applicable UK legal and tax obligations, ordinarily for six years after the relevant financial year. Complaint correspondence is normally retained for 24 months unless a longer period is needed to resolve a dispute. This policy was reviewed on 5 October 2026; future revisions will be dated and will not change the independent status of editorial decisions without a clear disclosure.
