Terms of service
Effective date: September 25, 2026
Welcome to My Placenta Gift, a placenta donation education and outreach website operated by Celquest, LLC ("Celquest," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms of Use explain the conditions for using myplacentagift.com and its related pages (the "Website"). Please read them before using the Website. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the Website.
1. Purpose of the Website
The Website offers general information about placenta donation, the My Placenta Gift program, and potential medical uses of donated placental tissue. It also provides a way to contact our team with questions. The Website is informational; it does not sell products or provide clinical care.
2. Information Is Not Medical Advice
Content on the Website is for general educational purposes and does not replace advice, diagnosis, or treatment from your obstetrician, midwife, pediatrician, or other qualified healthcare professional. Your healthcare team makes decisions about your medical care and your baby's care. Do not delay seeking medical advice because of something you read here. If you have an urgent medical concern, contact your healthcare professional or emergency services.
3. Donation Requires a Separate Process
Using the Website, contacting us, or expressing interest in donation does not enroll you in the program, establish your eligibility, or authorize the recovery of any tissue. Birth tissue donation requires a separate informed consent process and applicable medical and social history review, testing, and other program requirements. Availability and eligibility may depend on your circumstances, delivery setting, participating facility, and applicable procedures. You may ask questions before deciding whether to participate. Your medical care and your baby's medical care take priority over donation.
Information about possible medical applications describes potential uses of eligible donated tissue. We do not guarantee that a particular donation will be accepted, recovered, processed, used in a particular way, or provided to any specific patient. Any separate donor consent and program documents govern the donation process; these Website terms do not replace them.
4. Your Use of the Website
You may use the Website for lawful, personal, informational purposes. Please do not interfere with its operation, try to gain unauthorized access, submit false or misleading information, impersonate another person, or use the Website in a way that violates the rights of others or applicable law. We may restrict access where reasonably necessary to protect the Website, its users, or our organization.
5. Contact Forms and Communications
If you contact us through the Website, please provide accurate contact information so we can respond. Do not use the general contact form for emergencies. Please do not include Social Security numbers, full medical records, test results, or other highly sensitive information in a general inquiry unless our team directs you to an appropriate process. Sending a message does not create a healthcare provider–patient relationship or constitute informed consent to donation. Our collection and use of personal information through the Website are described in our Privacy Policy.
6. Ownership and Permitted Sharing
Unless otherwise stated, the Website's text, design, graphics, logos, and other materials belong to Celquest or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may view and share links to public Website pages for personal, noncommercial purposes. You may not reproduce substantial portions of the Website, use our names or logos to suggest endorsement, or exploit Website materials commercially without our prior written permission. Brief quotations with clear attribution are permitted to the extent allowed by law.
7. External Links
The Website may link to resources operated by others. Those resources are provided for convenience and are subject to their own terms and privacy practices. A link does not necessarily mean that Celquest endorses the linked organization, service, or content.
8. Accuracy and Availability
We aim to keep the Website useful and accurate, but donation procedures, participating facilities, eligibility criteria, and medical information can change. Website content may not reflect every individual circumstance or the latest program requirement. We may update, remove, or temporarily interrupt Website content or features. Contact our team for current program information.
9. Disclaimer and Limits
The Website is provided on an "as available" basis. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Celquest does not make warranties about uninterrupted access or the completeness or accuracy of every item of general Website content. Nothing in these terms limits rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be limited, or changes the rights and obligations set out in a separate informed consent or other document signed as part of the donation process.
10. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms of Use as the Website or program changes. We will post the revised terms here with a new effective date. Your use of the Website after a revised version is posted is subject to that version, to the extent permitted by law.
11. Contact Us
Questions about these Terms of Use or the My Placenta Gift program may be sent through our Contact Us page.
