Confidentiality of Submission Information
This site gives users the option of either not entering their contact information, or choosing not to publicly display their contact information, instead listed as an 'Anonymous Contributor'. Email addresses are not publicly displayed so that direct marketers' spam-bots cannot crawl the site and extract and compile a list of email addresses by looking for the email '@' syntax on the pages. Though many students do have significant debt loads, they don't need their time wasted by deleting offers of '50,000 instantly, no trick!' flooding their inbox. See diagram.

All funding information is kept separate from the content. There will never be a mnemonic about the virtues of some new expensive drug. Moreover, the drug companies are not permitted to come near this website. It is the policy of this site that gifts from pharmaceutical companies to try to influence future prescribing to patients don't belong in medical education. In Ireland, there is a saying: 'The person who pays the fiddler names the tune'.
