General Terms for Requests and Licensing

These terms describe the general framework for digital work bodies, documents, ontologies, matrices, notebooks, Codex task specifications, reports, governance models and comparable ruahAI strategy-IP packages. The website provides only a non-binding written request channel. A contract, access or rights of use arise only through an express written agreement. Last updated: 1 August 2026.

Requests and Formation of Contract

An email request is not an order, acceptance, instant activation or commitment to a particular scope of work. Subject matter, suitability, price, timeframe, protection needs, scope of rights and handover are clarified in writing before any contract is concluded. Individually negotiated or expressly agreed terms take precedence over these general terms.

Offer and Performance Model

ruahAI describes rights-reserved strategy IP in the form of bounded strategy-IP packages and individual work bodies. The public offer is not a subscription, SaaS, platform, pilot, vendor login, hosting arrangement, consultancy or ongoing service relationship. Only the delivery and performance scope agreed in writing is binding.

Typical Delivery Scope

An agreed package may include methodology notes, use-case maps, signal or taxonomy schemes, update logic, an implementation boundary, a rights boundary, decision or governance structures, and expressly identified examples. There is no entitlement to a source repository, platform account, internal intermediate steps or ongoing online access unless expressly agreed in writing.

Rights and Ownership

Handover of a work body transfers neither ownership of the underlying strategy IP nor copyright, database rights, know-how rights, trade-secret rights or other intellectual-property rights. Only the expressly agreed right of use is granted within the documented substantive, organisational, sectoral, geographical, temporal and purpose-specific scope. All rights not expressly granted remain with ruahAI or the respective rights holders.

Protected Cores

Protected ontology bodies, raw cores, internal computational or weighting logic, prompt or agent chains, MCP, routing or orchestration logic, internal templates and unagreed intermediate steps are neither owed nor disclosed. A public preview, description or methodology note does not authorise reconstruction of these protected cores.

Prohibited Uses

Without separate prior written permission, the following are prohibited in particular: resale, sublicensing, public publication or disclosure, white-label exploitation, use outside the agreed field of use, model training, fine-tuning, inclusion in RAG or training corpora, model improvement, and extraction, reconstruction or imitation of protected structures.

Exclusivity

Exclusivity is not part of the standard scope. It can be agreed only expressly and in writing and must be delimited in particular by time, sector, geography, use case or buyer segment. Without such an agreement, a right of use is non-exclusive.

Counterparty Data and Infrastructure

The counterparty uses only lawfully collected or lawfully accessible data, its own accounts and its own infrastructure. Data procurement, hosting, production operation, system integration and ongoing processing by ruahAI are not part of the standard scope. Personal data, trade secrets or credentials may be transmitted only after written clarification of protection and purpose.

No Automatic Update or Service Obligation

An agreed scope of use includes no automatic obligation to update, support, advise, implement, train, adapt, recalibrate or provide subsequent deliveries. Follow-up work, new use cases, extensions or updates require new written clarification.

Professional Review and Responsibility

Work bodies do not replace legal, tax, investment, financial, medical or other reserved professional advice, or any decision by a public authority. A reviewable or compliance-by-design-prepared structure is not certification, regulatory conformity, legal effectiveness, production readiness or official approval. Concrete use and the necessary professional decisions remain with the responsible persons and institutions.

Website and Public Previews

The website presents fields of work and may present selected public previews. It does not automatically deliver internal packages. There is no entitlement to continued availability, unchanged presentation, a vendor login, platform use or ongoing operation. Rights already effectively granted for a package agreed and handed over in writing remain unaffected within their agreed scope.

Misuse and Enforcement

Work bodies may not be used for unlawful or security-endangering purposes, purposes that violate human dignity, or purposes outside the agreed scope of rights. Where there are concrete indications of misuse, ruahAI may refuse or terminate further performance within the framework of the written agreement, lawfully preserve relevant contractual and communication information, and cooperate with competent bodies to the extent permitted by law. This does not create a general monitoring obligation.

Consumers and Distance Contracts

Where a contract is concluded with a consumer in an individual case, mandatory consumer-protection rules remain unaffected. Required pre-contractual information and any applicable cancellation instructions will be provided separately in text form before the contract is concluded. The public request function does not itself conclude a contract.

Governing Law

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, German law applies. Mandatory consumer-protection provisions and mandatory conflict-of-laws rules remain unaffected.
