On this page, we explain how the information on this website is intended to be used, what responsibility we accept and where the limits of that responsibility lie.
Stichting Plant-Beest makes every effort to keep the information on this website accurate, clear and up to date. However, we cannot guarantee that all information is always complete, correct or current.
The information on this website is intended as general, useful information about plant-based choices, animal welfare, nutrition and related topics. No rights may be derived from the content of this website.
You use the information on this website entirely at your own risk.
The information on this website is not intended to replace medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. This also applies to information about the nutrition, health or welfare of dogs, cats or other animals.
Always consult a doctor, veterinarian, dietitian, nutrition professional or other qualified expert if you have questions about health, diet, supplements, symptoms, medical conditions, or the wellbeing of yourself, your child or your pet.
Do not change your diet, medication or treatment solely on the basis of information provided on this website.
This website may contain images and photographs that visitors may find shocking, confronting or emotionally distressing. These images may not be suitable for minors.
Some of this material shows the reality of animal industries. Stichting Plant-Beest deliberately chooses not to keep that reality entirely out of sight: understanding animal suffering sometimes means seeing confronting facts and images. We believe we should not look away from that reality.
Visitors should therefore be aware that graphic or shocking material may appear unexpectedly on different pages of this website. We cannot predict in advance how strongly an individual visitor will react to each image. Visitors should therefore not assume that only mild imagery will be shown. This warning applies to the website as a whole; individual images are not necessarily preceded by a separate warning. If a particular image proves more confronting than expected, this does not mean that the visitor was not warned of this possibility in advance. If you do not wish to see such material, we advise you not to continue using the website.
By continuing to use this website, you acknowledge that you may be exposed to such material and that it may cause a strong emotional reaction.
Photographs on this website depicting animal suffering are provided by We Animals Media unless otherwise stated. The copyright in these images remains entirely with We Animals Media or the respective rights holders.
On pages about animals, we credit the photographer and other relevant rights holders wherever possible. For practical reasons, images may sometimes also be used elsewhere on the website without an immediate credit. Stichting Plant-Beest is grateful to We Animals Media for its valuable work in making animal suffering visible and inspiring people to make animal-friendly choices.
The images provide a general impression of situations animals may experience. Individual cases may differ, and every situation is unique.
