Website operator and acceptance of terms

This website is operated by Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd, 2 Makro Place, Sunnyrock 1401. Dialysis SA provides an information service for South African renal-care teams by publishing a calendar of workshops, technician courses, conferences and supplier open days, together with venue details and a booking link to the relevant organiser.

By accessing or using this website, you agree to be bound by these terms of use and any applicable South African law. If you do not accept these terms, please do not use the website.

We may update these terms from time to time by publishing a revised version on this page. Your continued use of the website after any update will mean that you accept the revised terms.

Purpose of the website and listing information

Dialysis SA is an information and listing platform. We do not present ourselves as the organiser, host or provider of any event listed on this website unless expressly stated otherwise. Bookings, attendance queries and event arrangements are handled by each organiser through their own booking process.

Listings are intended to help nurses, technicians, unit managers and doctors find relevant renal-care events across South Africa.
Event details are supplied or confirmed by organisers, or published from information made available for listing purposes.
A booking link on a listing will take you to the organiser or booking channel selected for that event.
Inclusion of a listing does not amount to endorsement, accreditation, approval or a guarantee of suitability for your needs.

You are responsible for checking that any event meets your professional, travel, study leave and workplace requirements before booking or attending.

Accuracy, changes and availability

We aim to keep listing information clear and current. Even so, event details may change without notice, including dates, times, formats, venues, availability and booking arrangements. Organisers may postpone, move or cancel events, and venue rules may also change.

Because this website depends in part on information from third parties, we do not warrant that every listing will always be complete, current or free from error. You should confirm important details with the organiser before making travel plans, requesting study leave or incurring costs.

We may add, remove, edit or reorder listings at our discretion.
We may suspend or limit access to parts of the website for maintenance, security or operational reasons.
We do not guarantee uninterrupted access to the website at all times.

You may use this website only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not interfere with its normal operation or the use of the website by others. You may not misuse the website, attempt unauthorised access, introduce harmful code or use automated means to copy or scrape content at scale without prior written permission.

You may view listings and share links for legitimate professional or internal planning purposes. Any broader reproduction, republication or commercial use of the content requires prior written consent from the website operator.

If you submit an enquiry through the contact page, you must provide accurate information and must not send unlawful, misleading or harmful material.

Privacy and POPIA

Where you contact us through the enquiry form, we may collect personal information that you choose to provide, such as your name, workplace details, role and message content. We use that information to respond to your enquiry, manage listings, maintain website administration and keep appropriate records.

Personal information will be handled in line with applicable South African data protection law, including the Protection of Personal Information Act, where it applies. We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access and disclosure.

We will not use your information for a purpose that is incompatible with the reason for which it was collected.
We may share information with service providers where reasonably necessary for hosting, maintenance, security or administration, subject to appropriate duties of confidentiality.
You may ask about the personal information we hold about you, or request correction where required by law.

Submitting information through the website does not create a confidential medical record or treatment relationship.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd excludes liability for any loss, damage, delay, inconvenience or cost arising from use of this website, reliance on listing information or attendance decisions made in connection with listed events.
