Terms of use & disclaimer

This site is an information board only, similar to a business directory. It gives no personal recommendations, does not rate facility quality, is not an intermediary and charges no commission.

Information about places comes from the government registries of the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Welfare and the Ministry of Construction and Housing, and from other public sources. Each value names its source, and usually the date it was read. It may be out of date or incomplete, so confirm it with the place itself and with the Ministry of Health before making a decision.

The site has no sponsored placement, and nothing is paid for a place to be shown. Filtering and sorting are based on structured facts only (type of place, city, region, funding, size). Choosing a place is the user's responsibility.

The information on the site is not medical, legal or financial advice. For any such decision, consult a professional.

The ministry report pages have a chat where artificial intelligence (AI) answers questions, and buttons that open outside AIs: ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. The AI answers from the text of the report but can make mistakes: misread or mistranslate it, or miss what it says. Its answer is generated automatically: it is not the portal's position, not a rating of the place and not advice. Before deciding, check the answer against the ministry's report. What happens to questions in the chat is described in the privacy policy.

Numbers and answers from the reports' tables are copied to the portal's pages automatically, as printed, and checked by software. A copying error is still possible, so wherever they differ, the original report on the ministry's website is what counts.

Rights and use of the content

All rights in the content created for the Bnei Bayit portal are reserved to the site's owners: the texts (guides, questions and answers, explanations) and their translations, the selection and arrangement of the records in the catalogue, the design and the code written for the site.

The facts and data about the facilities come from government registries and from the sources named on the pages; the portal claims no copyright in the facts and data themselves. Government ministry reports, and quotations from the facilities' own websites and from other websites, do not belong to the portal: the rights in them stay with their owners, and they are shown with their source. The permissions below give no right in other people's material. The portal is a private site: it is not a government site and does not act on behalf of the State, and nothing on it implies official status, or the sponsorship or endorsement of the State.

You may read the site, print its pages and share them, and link to the site. You may also quote passages from it, naming Bnei Bayit and linking to the page.

Without written consent you may not copy the catalogue or the site's texts, or a substantial part of them, by hand or with automated tools, in order to republish them, to build another site, an app or a database from them, or to train a model on them; the exception is what is permitted below to search engines, archives and general-purpose AI services. This does not limit any use the law permits, including fair use and the use of facts and data to the extent the law permits it. To ask for consent, write to bneibayit.il@gmail.com.

Search engines, web archives and general-purpose AI services may read the site under the rules in robots.txt, keep copies of its pages in their index or archive, show its pages in search results and in the archive, train models on it and use it in the answers they give their users; we ask them to name the source and link to the page. This permission is given to them only: it does not pass to anyone who receives copies, data or answers from them, transfers no rights in the content and allows no use beyond what is said here, including building a catalogue, site, app or database from it. It is not granted to a service whose main business concerns nursing homes, sheltered housing or other settings for older people — information, advice, comparison or brokerage — even when it receives the content through another service. The robots.txt file only says which addresses may be crawled; it is not a permission to use the content. The portal may slow down or block automated access that overloads the site, or that does not follow the rules of that file or these terms.

Found a mistake on the site, or content you believe infringes your rights? Write to bneibayit.il@gmail.com: we will check it and, where needed, correct or remove it. A request to remove information that comes from registries or official reports is considered on its merits and does not oblige us to remove it.

These terms are published in five languages. If the versions differ, the Hebrew version prevails.
