Apnea Board Policy on Providing CPAP Manuals to other parties

Apnea Board is an open, non-profit educational discussion forum devoted exclusively to Sleep Apnea patients and CPAP usage. We make a promise to our members that Apnea Board operations will never be influenced by commercial interests.

We provide up to two (2) CPAP Clinician / Setup Manuals free-of-charge, via our web site and email to private individuals only who own a CPAP machine for their own personal educational use.

If you receive a manual or CPAP setup instructions and it helps you, please consider making a small donation to help support Apnea Board. We are non-profit and operate on a shoe-string budget, so even a couple of dollars will help.



In accordance with Section 107 of the US Copyright Law, (specifically the "fair use" sections) we cannot provide our free CPAP Manual service to persons or entities for anything other than educational purposes. Therefore, we cannot send Clinician Setup Manuals to commercial entities (including hospitals, sleep centers, doctors, nurses, medical equipment suppliers, respiratory therapists, clinicians, medical technicians or other persons who own or are employed by a medically-related or any other commercial entity).

If your email message reveals that you are in one of the above categories, we legally cannot send you a manual for educational purposes. Also, if your email address, username or other criteria reveals that you are (or are likely to be) in one of the above categories, we cannot send you a manual.
