Incoming Links to the ASBMR
The American Society of Bone and Mineral Research ("ASBMR") grants a nonexclusive, limited permission to web sites to place a text link to the ASBMR containing the exact words "American Society of Bone and Mineral Research" or our domain name (presently https://www.asbmr.org) ('text link to the ASBMR') on their site to develop a link between their site and the ASBMR web site, provided that ASBMR is notified at asbmr@asbmr.org (Phone: +1 (202) 367 1161) before the link is established.
Content Integrity, Link Location
The ASBMR strongly requests that sites do not use links to https://www.asbmr.org other than a text link. The materials on the linking site should not imply any association with or relation to the ASBMR or imply in any way that any materials from our web site are maintained within or originate from the linking web site. The ASBMR does not permit any content from our web site to be framed within another site. Material may not be copied from our web site for publication in any form without express written permission. Companies advertising products are requested to not link to the ASBMR site from any advertising or marketing pages, or to include any pages that refer specifically to a particular drug by brand name through overt logo use or textual reference.
All links should be for non-profit or educational purposes only. This includes: a) that a linked site must not be an affiliate of a commercial web site (eg Amazon.com affiliate), b) must not contain embedded links that will financially benefit the linked site whenever the links are clicked upon (eg link to textbook on a bookseller's web site), c) should not contain advertisements, and d) should not contain copyrighted images or text from other sources unless it is clearly indicated that permission of the copyright holder had been obtained.
Format of Link
No changes or modifications to the text link to the ASBMR may be made. Use of the text link to the ASBMR for purposes other than linking to https://www.asbmr.org is expressly forbidden. The text link to the ASBMR must not be used or associated with any obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, indecent, profane, defamatory or unlawful site or materials in any way, or in any manner that would adversely affect the name, reputation and goodwill of the ASBMR. The ASBMR retains and reserves all rights to the ASBMR's trade names, trademarks and logos, copyrights and all other intellectual property. Use of any other trademarks, trade names, graphic banners, copyrighted material or any other intellectual property of the ASBMR for any purpose is expressly forbidden, unless explicit written permission for that use has been granted.

The ASBMR shall not be responsible for any loss, damage, liability or expense that may accompany or result from your use of the link, text link to the ASBMR or graphic banner(s), including but not limited to any computer virus; technical, hardware or software failures of any kind; lost or unavailable network connections; or failed, incomplete, garbled or delayed computer transmissions.
