Terms of Service

Please read these terms carefully before using Mesothelioma.cam. They include important disclosures about AI-generated content, lead generation, advertising, and your legal rights.

📅 Last Updated: May 12, 2025  ·  Effective: May 12, 2025
IMPORTANT NOTICES: This site is not a law firm and provides no legal advice. Content is for informational purposes only. Some content is AI-assisted. Submitting an intake form constitutes a lead generation referral to licensed attorneys — not legal representation. By using this site you agree to these Terms in full.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Mesothelioma.cam (the “Site”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”), our Privacy Policy, and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, do not use this Site.

These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access or use the Site, whether or not you submit any form or make any inquiry.

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

2. About This Site

Mesothelioma.cam is an independent online information and lead generation platform. We provide:

  • Informational content about mesothelioma, asbestos exposure, treatment options, and legal resources
  • Neighborhood-level and city-level maps of documented asbestos exposure sites compiled from public government records
  • Case review intake forms that connect users with licensed mesothelioma attorneys
  • Directory listings of attorneys, cancer centers, and other resources
  • Advertising served by Google AdSense and related ad networks

We are not a law firm, medical provider, government agency, or non-profit organization. We are a for-profit platform that generates revenue through attorney referrals and advertising.

3. Medical Disclaimer

This site does not provide medical advice. All medical content on Mesothelioma.cam — including descriptions of mesothelioma types, symptoms, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment options — is provided for general informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Always seek the advice of your physician, oncologist, or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you read on this site.

If you believe you may have mesothelioma or an asbestos-related condition, contact a licensed physician immediately. This site does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Medical statistics (diagnosis rates, survival rates, latency periods) cited on this site are drawn from published sources including the CDC, NCI SEER database, and peer-reviewed literature, and are intended to be representative — not specific to any individual’s prognosis.

5. AI Content Disclosure

Mesothelioma.cam uses artificial intelligence (AI) tools to assist in researching, drafting, summarizing, and organizing content published on this site.

What AI Is Used For

  • Aggregating and summarizing publicly available government records (EPA ECHO, ATSDR, OSHA inspection databases, CDC WONDER)
  • Drafting neighborhood exposure summaries, historical industrial narratives, and occupational risk profiles
  • Generating keyword research, SEO meta descriptions, and structured data
  • Synthesizing peer-reviewed medical literature into accessible plain-language summaries
  • Organizing and formatting data tables, charts, and comparison content

What AI Is NOT Used For

  • AI does not generate legal advice or case-specific legal analysis
  • AI does not determine whether any individual qualifies for compensation
  • AI does not fabricate citations — all cited sources reference real publicly available records
  • AI does not evaluate or recommend specific attorneys

Human Review

All AI-assisted content is reviewed by human editors prior to publication for factual accuracy, appropriate sourcing, and compliance with our editorial standards. However, given the volume of neighborhood-level content, errors may exist. We welcome corrections at editorial@mesothelioma.cam.

Accuracy Limitations

AI-generated content may contain inaccuracies, outdated information, or errors of omission. Exposure site lists, active years, product identifications, and employer names are approximations compiled from public records and should not be treated as definitive legal evidence without independent verification. We disclaim liability for decisions made in reliance on AI-generated content.

FTC AI Disclosure Compliance

In accordance with emerging FTC guidance on AI-generated content and endorsements, we disclose that artificial intelligence tools materially contributed to content production on this site. This disclosure is made regardless of whether specific pages are individually labeled as AI-assisted.

6. Lead Generation Disclosure

Mesothelioma.cam is a lead generation platform. When you submit a case review form, your personal information is shared with licensed mesothelioma attorneys or law firms in our referral network. We receive compensation for qualified referrals.

How the Referral Process Works

  1. You complete a case review intake form on this site
  2. Your submitted information (name, phone, email, diagnosis, employment history) is transmitted to one or more attorney partners in our network
  3. An attorney or their intake team contacts you to evaluate your potential claim
  4. You decide independently whether to retain the attorney — there is no obligation to proceed
  5. We receive a referral fee if you are accepted as a client by an attorney in our network

TCPA Consent

By submitting an intake form on this site, you expressly consent to being contacted by mesothelioma attorneys and their representatives via telephone calls (including auto-dialed or prerecorded calls), text messages (SMS), and email, even if your phone number is on a state or federal Do Not Call registry. Standard message and data rates may apply. You may opt out of text messages by replying STOP.

This consent is not a condition of receiving any services. If you do not wish to provide this consent, do not submit the form — instead, call us directly at (888) 555-0100 to be connected with an attorney without submitting digital data.

Attorney Vetting

Attorneys in our referral network are licensed to practice law in the state(s) they serve. We do not independently verify attorney credentials, track records, or bar standing beyond basic licensing confirmation. You are responsible for independently evaluating any attorney before retaining them. We recommend verifying attorney licensure through your state bar association.

Sponsored vs. Organic Listings

Some attorney profiles on this site are sponsored placements for which we receive payment. Sponsored profiles are clearly labeled “Sponsored.” The presence of a sponsored label does not imply that the attorney is more or less qualified than non-sponsored attorneys. Organic listings (non-sponsored) are not ranked by quality or outcome.

No Guarantee of Results

A referral to an attorney through this site does not guarantee that you will be accepted as a client, that a lawsuit will be filed on your behalf, or that you will receive any compensation. Acceptance of cases by attorneys is at the sole discretion of the attorney.

7. Advertising & Sponsored Content Disclosure

Mesothelioma.cam generates revenue through the following advertising and commercial relationships, in compliance with FTC endorsement guidelines (16 CFR Part 255) and Google Publisher Policies:

Google AdSense

This site displays display advertisements served by Google AdSense. These ads are automatically selected by Google’s algorithms based on site content and visitor behavior. We do not control which specific ads appear. Ad revenue does not influence our editorial content or the accuracy of our exposure site data.

Google Ads / Paid Search

We may run paid advertising campaigns through Google Ads to attract visitors to this site. The cost of advertising does not affect our editorial independence.

Attorney Referral Fees

We receive compensation from mesothelioma attorneys and law firms when visitors we refer are accepted as clients. This is a material commercial relationship that you should be aware of when evaluating the attorney recommendations and content on this site.

Affiliate Links

Some links on this site may be affiliate links through which we earn a commission if you click or make a purchase. Where applicable, affiliate links will be disclosed with an “(Ad)” or “Sponsored” label.

Editorial Independence

Commercial relationships described above do not influence the factual accuracy of our exposure site data, medical information, or geographic neighborhood content. Our neighborhood maps, exposure site tables, and census data are compiled from public sources independently of advertiser relationships.

8. Google AdSense Program Policy Compliance

As a Google AdSense publisher, we adhere to the Google AdSense Program Policies, including:

  • Invalid clicks: We do not encourage or artificially generate clicks on Google ads. Do not click on ads displayed on this site for any reason other than genuine interest.
  • Content policies: We do not place ads on pages with prohibited content.
  • Privacy policy: We maintain the Privacy Policy linked in our site footer as required by Google.
  • Cookie notice: We display a cookie consent notice and honor user choices regarding analytics and advertising cookies as required.
  • Sensitive categories: As a health and legal information site, we comply with Google’s sensitive category ad policies, including restrictions on targeting based on sensitive health conditions.

If you notice any policy violations on this site, please report them to legal@mesothelioma.cam.

10. Data Accuracy & Exposure Site Information

The asbestos exposure site data, neighborhood maps, census statistics, and occupational risk information published on this site are compiled from publicly available government sources including:

  • EPA ECHO (Enforcement and Compliance History Online)
  • ATSDR (Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry)
  • OSHA Inspection and Citation Database
  • CDC WONDER Mortality Database
  • U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS)
  • Published mesothelioma litigation records and discovery documents

Limitations of Exposure Data

  • Site lists are not exhaustive — additional exposure sites may exist that are not reflected in public records
  • Active years and product identifications are approximate and based on available records at the time of compilation
  • Facility names may reflect historical names that have since changed through corporate acquisitions or closures
  • Risk level designations (High / Moderate / Lower) are editorial assessments based on site count, industry type, and documented litigation history — not formal regulatory risk scores
  • Data is updated periodically but may not reflect the most current government records
This data should not be used as legal evidence without independent verification. If you are involved in mesothelioma litigation, work with your attorney to obtain certified records directly from the relevant government agencies.
