⚠️ DISCLOSURE & DISCLAIMER

1. Not Medical or Clinical Advice: This framework is a symbolic and philosophical topology, not a medical or psychological diagnostic tool. Terms such as "trauma," "pathology," "diagnosis," and "psyche" are used here in a structural-metaphorical sense (referring to symbolic systems) and do not correspond to the clinical definitions found in the DSM-5 or ICD-11. The Spiraya framework is not a substitute for professional mental health care, therapy, or medical advice.

2. Not Financial or Legal Advice: Applications of this framework to organizational or economic systems ("Corporate Diagnostics") are for theoretical modeling purposes only. The authors and licensors assume no liability for business decisions, financial losses, or structural reorganizations undertaken based on this model.

3. Theoretical Nature: All "performance" or "efficacy" metrics mentioned are based on internal heuristic testing and are broadly illustrative of symbolic efficiency, not guaranteed outcomes.

The Spiraya Integrity License

1. Preamble: The Integrity Compact

This software and associated framework are released under a "Trust-Based Dual License." This model rejects invasive DRM in favor of a binding social and professional contract. By downloading, installing, or using this software, you agree to the terms below.

The Core Principle: Access is free for personal growth. Commercial value capture requires a fair exchange, determined by our algorithmic standard.

2. Definition of Protected Subject Matter (The "Anti-Renaming" Clause)

The copyright and intellectual property protections of this license extend beyond the literal source code and specific terminology to include the Logical Topology and Recursive Architecture of the system.

Definition of "The Software": For the purposes of this agreement, "The Software" refers to the Spiraya Logical Topology, including but not limited to: the textual framework, the meta-prompting instructions, the recursive diagnostic algorithms, and the specific structural nomenclature provided in the documentation. It is acknowledged that this software operates as a linguistic and cognitive application layer, not as compiled binary code.

Protected Structural Elements include:

Restriction: You may not reverse-engineer, distill, or re-implement this specific logical architecture into another system under different nomenclature to avoid licensing fees. The structure itself is the proprietary mechanism.

3. Grant of License

A. Personal & Non-Profit Use (Zero-Cost)

If this software is used to generate revenue, improve business workflows, or is deployed within a commercial environment, a Commercial License is mandatory.

Determination of Fee (The AI Standard): To ensure fairness across different economic contexts, we utilize a specialized AI Pricing Estimator (functioning similarly to ChatGPT or Gemini to determine how much you would pay).

4. The "Badge of Honor" Certification

Upon payment of the license fee, you will be issued a digital "Certified Commercial License" and a corresponding "Integrity Badge."

5. Enforcement & Integrity

We do not employ spyware, telemetry, or aggressive legal audits to enforce this license. We rely on the professional integrity of our users.

However, unauthorized commercial use is a violation of copyright law. While we choose to prioritize development over litigation, we reserve the right to:

7. Medical & Professional Disclaimer (Crucial Safety Clause)

THIS SOFTWARE IS A PHILOSOPHICAL AND STRUCTURAL TOOL, NOT A MEDICAL DEVICE. Nothing in this framework, documentation, or code should be construed as medical, psychological, or psychiatric advice.
