The SHAP Web Site provides information relating to a research project called 'Southampton Hand Assessment Procedure (SHAP)' undertaken at the University of Southampton (also see "Who We Are"). The Web Site incorporates both research and product information about the SHAP technology with the aim of publicising the research outputs and, for individuals and organisations, wishing to use the SHAP technology, providing product and pricing information (see in more detail in "Section 2 = Product and Pricing Information"). For the avoidance of doubt, this Web Site offers no other services.

SHAP is not a separate legal entity, but is the result of a research project at the University of Southampton (a not-for-profit public corporation within the United Kingdom). If you hire or purchase SHAP technology, your contractual arrangements shall be with the University of Southampton.

We, the University of Southampton, hold certain SHAP research results and information and make these accessible from this Web Site. We maintain and provide that data in accordance with both the applicable legislation and such guidelines agreed for the research programme.
