Dovelyne publishes general information for a general audience. This page sets out the limits of that.

General information, not professional advice

Nothing on Dovelyne is medical, veterinary, financial, legal or other professional advice, and nothing here creates a professional relationship between you and us.

We do not know your circumstances, your household, your finances, your child or your animal. Content written for everyone cannot account for the situation in front of you.

For anything touching health, a medical condition, medication, an animal’s wellbeing, money you cannot afford to lose, or your legal position, consult a qualified professional who can assess your actual situation. If a person or an animal is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency service or a veterinarian rather than reading an article.

Rules and entitlements vary by place

Requirements around safety standards, schooling, consumer rights, payments and entitlements differ between countries, and often between states or regions within a country. They also change over time.

Where an article describes a rule, it names the place and the body that sets it, and the date we retrieved it. Confirm the current position with that body before relying on it. Do not assume a rule described for one country applies where you live.

Products, prices and availability

Product detail comes from manufacturer specifications, official product pages and retailer listings, as described in how we research.

Prices and availability change constantly and differ by country and retailer. A price on Dovelyne records what was observed on a stated date, and expires on its own as described in how we verify. Always check the current price, specification and availability with the seller before buying. We are not the seller and we cannot vary a retailer’s price, stock or terms.

Where we have not used a product ourselves, the article says so. An evidence label of anything other than hands-on tested means exactly that.

Third party sites

Articles link to manufacturers, retailers, regulators and other publications. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, their accuracy, their products or their terms. A link is not an endorsement of everything on the other end of it.

Commercial relationships

Some links earn us a commission, and some content is sponsored. Both are disclosed on the page. How that works, and the limits on it, are set out in how we make money and the affiliate disclosure.

Errors

We work to the standards in our editorial policy, and we still get things wrong sometimes. When you find an error, tell us and we will deal with it under the corrections policy.

To the extent permitted by law, Dovelyne is not liable for loss arising from reliance on general information published here. Nothing on this page limits any right you have that cannot lawfully be excluded.
