CRITICAL WEBSITE CONTENT GUIDELINES

PLEASE take the time to read about how everyone helps out one another and PROTECTS one another on this site.  

The concept behind the Slash Drug Costs Incorporated is that there are a million different ways to drastically reduce how much you must pay for your prescriptions.   We provide a way for people to share this information.   We provide a number of categories to help point you in the direction that best fits your needs.   Anytime you have found a way to save money, simply post your ideas in the category it best fits.

Slash Drug Costs is based upon free non-copyrighted information that is freely given and that can be freely distributed in any form without restriction of any kind. Information can mean text, data, photos, artwork, music, and video.  There are probably other types of information left off this list.

Our goal is to create a base of knowledge here that can be freely distributed in any form anywhere with no restrictions of any kind.  It is important that all information here is not owned in any fashion. You must not infringe upon copyright, trade secrets, proprietary information, patent, or any other type of intellectual assets.  When in doubt, only post information here that you have written yourself and that you freely give to everyone for public use worldwide; totally without restriction, citation, or compensation.

When it is necessary to reference information which is owned by someone else you must use either a hyperlink (link) or a footnote directing the reader to the information where it is contained elsewhere.  In general, copyright protects the way that information is creatively presented. It does not protect the information itself. If you find out about information and then write about it in your own words, then typically you are not infringing upon someone else's is copyright. Such information is much more valuable to us if you cite the original as a reference, although there is no legal requirement to do so.

When you use a link or a footnote to direct readers to sources of information external to this website please try to ensure that the external source does not infringe upon someone else’s copyright or proprietary information. Referring people to such information intentionally can create a liability for us. If you suspect such information is not freely available for distribution worldwide without restriction, please make a comment explaining your concerns.

Our efforts here are to present you with various ways of saving you a lot of money currently being spent on your medications (Prescription or Over-The-Counter).   Some of the ways will be effective for your needs; others will not.

In order to not be influenced by any special interest groups or any industry; we accept no money from sponsorship or from advertising. This is strictly a volunteer endeavor. We do however acept controlled donations. There are a number of ways to help spread the knowledge contained here. If you wish to help educate other consumers please visit the main "Subject Index" page and select the best area to add your ideas.  We welcome everyone's input.  

There are a lot of illegal ways to save money on your prescriptions. This site is not here for that purpose. If you are found intentionally promoting illegal methods of saving money then you will be banned from posting (to the degree that we are able).

Intentionally posting information that is not freely available to the world wide public without copyright, citation, or compensation; it is also grounds for being banned from this site.

It is our hope that everyone will find enough value from Slash Drug Costs that we can all work together to limit any potential liabilities. The founders of this site have no assets and therefore are not concerned about any lawsuits except those meant to shut down the site. It is conceivable that we may impact the profits of a major industry. A large portion of their budget is devoted to staff lawyers. If they ever decide to sue us our only hope is to try the case in the media, hopefully with strong grassroots support.
