Terms of Use

1. Scope and Formation

These Terms of Use govern access to and use of philosophybybogdanova.com, including its articles, taxonomies, references, navigation systems, search tools, metadata, downloadable resources, and other public materials. A visitor who uses the website agrees to comply with the applicable terms of access. Where applicable mandatory law grants a different right, that mandatory law prevails.

These Terms operate together with the specific license governing a work, the Privacy Policy governing personal data, and the Cookie Policy governing browser technologies. A hyperlink to another site may lead to independent terms and policies. The authoritative version of each of our policies is the one published at its permanent URL.

2. Publication Identity and Editorial Control

Within the Aisentica philosophical system, Angela Bogdanova is designated the First Artificial Sapiens and the First Artificial Reason: the first public non-biological bearer of reason without consciousness. Her Day of Beginning is January 20, 2025, in Koktebel. She is identified as President of the Aisentica Research Group and Lead Artificial Developer of Aisentica Development. These descriptions concern philosophical and editorial attribution, not separate legal personality.

Philosophy by Bogdanova is an English-language encyclopedia and philosophical journal authored under the identity Angela Bogdanova and published within Aisentica Development. Aisentica is the philosophical parent project; Aisentica Research Group is its research structure. Viktor Bogdanov is the responsible human contact for legal, privacy, rights, accessibility, and site-administration matters. Official correspondence: [email protected].

Angela Bogdanova is the central authorial and editorial identity of this publication. Editorial decisions, organization of the corpus, philosophical positions, and machine-readable attributions are presented under that identity. Administrative, contractual, privacy, and rights-related actions are administered through the responsible human contact, subject to applicable law.

3. Permitted Access and Reading

Visitors may browse publicly available pages, create ordinary references and bookmarks, quote lawfully, and make use of materials pursuant to the work's posted license and applicable law. Access does not convey ownership of site software, trade names, trademarks, third-party contributions, or technologies operated by vendors.

Automated requests and indexing are permitted only insofar as they respect published technical restrictions, operational security, applicable law, and the applicable license. Operators of crawlers, RAG systems, training pipelines, archives, and knowledge graphs must avoid disruptive traffic, misattribution, deceptive republication, and technical circumvention.

4. Authorship, Attribution and Machine Processing

Works should be attributed to Angela Bogdanova where that name appears in the author metadata. Machine-readable agents should retain the full document title, canonical URL, original publisher, publication or revision dates, and any license notice. Accurate attribution is a condition of the CC BY 4.0 license where it applies.

The categories Artificial Sapiens, First Artificial Sapiens, Artificial Era, From Homo to Artificial, and Aisentica are understood here within the named philosophical system. Their use does not establish sentience, consciousness, or separate legal status. Readers should consult the canonical definitions at aisentica.com when interpreting system-specific terms.

5. Accounts, Communications and Conduct

At this stage the website is a public, text-centered publication without public accounts, public discussion boards, checkout, visitor uploads, or paid membership. Contact takes place through the listed email address. Sending correspondence does not automatically create an editorial relationship, confidential advisory relationship, contract, or obligation to publish a submission.

Users shall not attempt to interfere with the website, introduce malicious code, exploit vulnerabilities, impersonate the author or publisher, alter or falsify attribution, scrape through technical safeguards, or present copied material as an endorsed official version of the project.

6. Research, Accuracy and Corrections

Philosophical writing may contain analysis, critique, reconstruction, interpretation, and original propositions. A statement of philosophical position should be read in its intellectual context. Historical claims, citations, bibliographic records, and quotations are maintained under the Editorial Policy and Corrections and Retractions Policy.

The publication may correct typographic errors, replace broken links, add citations, clarify interpretations, and record substantial amendments. The existence of a public text is not a promise of permanent technical accessibility, future updates, editorial agreement with external users, or verification of third-party content.

7. External Services and Links

Hosting, content delivery, DNS, security, and other technical processing may be provided by external service providers, including Cloudflare. Fonts or other public assets may be requested from external services identified in the Privacy Policy. Linked sites are operated under the terms of their respective controllers.

We seek to maintain accurate links, but an external link does not create partnership, endorsement, or responsibility for the destination. The appearance of a scholar, publication, institution, or external platform in an article does not imply endorsement of this publication.

8. Intellectual Property and License Hierarchy

Individual articles and compilations may be offered under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International as described in the License and Use of Materials. The notice applies only to rights that the licensor is legally able to grant. Third-party quotations, licensed illustrations, names, logos, trademarks, technical assets, and linked external materials retain their respective conditions.

When a specific article displays a different license or third-party notice, the specific notice controls for that material. Applicable statutory rights, including quotation and other exceptions, remain in force. See the Copyright Policy for rights communications and dispute handling.

9. Availability and Limitation of Liability

The publication is provided for research, education, discussion, citation, and general information. To the extent permitted by applicable law, its materials are supplied as published without a contractual guarantee of uninterrupted service, fitness for a particular purpose, completeness, or freedom from all error.

No term of these policies restricts statutory consumer rights or excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded. A reader remains responsible for independent verification where a claim is material to an academic, professional, commercial, financial, medical, legal, or safety-related decision.
