AI, CONTENT SCRAPING & INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY NOTICE

No permission is granted for the use of Panarchic Codex® content in artificial intelligence systems

Last updated: September 2026

Panarchic Codex® is an independent body of original research, scholarship, writing, design, visualisation and intellectual property developed by Dr. Melissa Sterry and Bioratorium Limited.

The material published through this website represents many years of original research and development, including research originating in Dr. Sterry's doctoral work and subsequent research, experimentation and publication.

No permission, licence, authorisation or consent has been granted to any artificial intelligence company, AI model developer, AI training-data provider, automated content-generation service, publisher, research organisation or other commercial entity to scrape, harvest, copy, reproduce, ingest, train upon, fine-tune upon, index for model development, synthesise, reproduce or otherwise exploit this material for the development or operation of artificial intelligence systems.

OUR RIGHTS ARE RESERVED

Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, all rights in the original material published on this website are reserved.

This includes, without limitation:

• written research, essays, articles, papers, books and other publications;

• Dr. Sterry's research findings, methodologies, hypotheses, propositions and original conceptual frameworks;

• architectural, urban, landscape and systems-design concepts;

• diagrams, drawings, sketches, illustrations, models and visualisations;

• photographs and other original imagery;

• video, audio, lectures, presentations and recordings;

• original terminology, nomenclature and taxonomies;

• original design concepts and proposed applications;

• trademarks, service marks, design rights and associated intellectual property;

• the selection, arrangement and presentation of material within the Panarchic Codex®;

• and derivative, adapted or subsequently developed works arising from the foregoing.

Particular protection applies to original research and concepts associated with Panarchistic Architecture, Pyrophytic Architecture™, Pyri-CONE™, BIOroot™, Retardant BIObark™, (B)IOT™ and other intellectual property developed by Dr. Sterry and/or Bioratorium Limited.

The existence of material on a publicly accessible website does not constitute a grant of permission to copy, harvest, reproduce, redistribute, commercially exploit or use that material for AI training or model development.

AI TRAINING AND MACHINE LEARNING

Panarchic Codex® does not grant permission for its copyright works or other protected intellectual property to be used as training data for generative AI, large language models, foundation models, machine-learning systems, retrieval-augmented generation systems or other computational systems whose purpose includes generating, reproducing, transforming or commercially exploiting intellectual or creative outputs.

This reservation applies whether material is acquired:

• by automated web crawling or scraping;

• through datasets assembled from publicly accessible websites;

• through automated downloading or copying;

• through third-party data brokers or aggregators;

• through republication or redistribution by another party;

• through an AI-enabled search or retrieval system;

• or by any other automated or manual means.

The fact that material can technically be accessed, read or downloaded from this website does not mean that it has been licensed for AI training, dataset construction, model development or commercial exploitation.

NO IMPLIED LICENCE

Nothing on this website should be interpreted as granting an implied licence to use its content for artificial intelligence development.

Any licence to reproduce, adapt, publish, distribute, translate, commercially exploit or otherwise use protected material must be expressly granted by the relevant rights holder.

Where permission is granted for a particular purpose, that permission is limited to the specific purpose, scope, duration and conditions expressly agreed in writing.

No permission should be inferred from silence, accessibility, indexing by ordinary search engines, the absence of a technical access restriction, or the publication of material online.

SEARCH ENGINES ARE NOT AI TRAINING LICENCES

Panarchic Codex® may permit ordinary indexing of its publicly available webpages for the purposes of conventional search-engine discovery.

Such indexing should not be interpreted as permission to collect, reproduce, aggregate, ingest or retain the underlying copyright material for artificial intelligence training, dataset construction, generative model development or other purposes beyond ordinary search indexing.

Permission to discover a webpage is not permission to appropriate its contents.

ORIGINAL RESEARCH AND ATTRIBUTION

Panarchic Codex® contains original research developed over an extended period and published through multiple scholarly, professional and public-facing channels.

Where concepts, terminology, propositions, design methodologies or other original intellectual contributions are subsequently discussed by third parties, proper attribution to their original creator and source is expected.

Attribution does not, by itself, constitute permission to reproduce or exploit copyright material.

Likewise, changing wording, paraphrasing, translating, summarising, restructuring or converting original material into another format does not necessarily remove it from the scope of applicable intellectual property rights.

AI-GENERATED PUBLICATIONS AND DERIVATIVE USE

Particular concern exists where original research is collected by automated systems and subsequently transformed into apparently independent:

• books;

• academic papers;

• reports;

• articles;

• consultancy materials;

• educational resources;

• presentations;

• websites;

• databases;

• training materials;

• or other publications or commercial products.

The use of AI or another automated system to transform, paraphrase, translate, summarise or reorganise protected material does not confer ownership of the underlying intellectual contribution upon the person or organisation operating that system.

Nor does the fact that an AI-generated output does not reproduce text verbatim necessarily establish that the underlying intellectual property has not been appropriated.

Panarchic Codex® therefore reserves all applicable rights in its original material and will investigate suspected unauthorised reproduction, adaptation, appropriation and exploitation.

NO AUTHORISATION TO AI COMPANIES

For the avoidance of doubt:

Dr. Melissa Sterry and Bioratorium Limited have not authorised AI companies to scrape the content of Panarchic Codex® for the purpose of training, developing, fine-tuning or otherwise improving artificial intelligence models or systems.

No agreement, licence or other permission should be inferred from the public availability of this website.

Any organisation wishing to use Panarchic Codex® material for AI-related purposes must obtain prior written permission from the relevant rights holder.

Requests will be considered on an individual basis and may be subject to licensing terms and fees.

THIRD-PARTY DATASETS AND AI SYSTEMS

If Panarchic Codex® material has been acquired by an AI company, publisher, dataset provider, aggregator or other third party without permission, the subsequent transfer, ingestion, processing, reproduction or commercial exploitation of that material does not create a licence where none was granted by the rights holder.

Organisations that acquire datasets from third parties remain responsible for establishing the provenance and lawful basis for their use of protected material.

Where material originating from Panarchic Codex® is identified within an AI training dataset, model-development dataset, commercial database, publication or other derivative work, Panarchic Codex® reserves the right to request information concerning its acquisition, provenance, processing, use and onward distribution and to take such action as may be available under applicable law.

TECHNICAL ACCESS AND RIGHTS RESERVATION

Panarchic Codex® reserves the right to employ reasonable technical measures to restrict, identify or monitor automated access to its content, including measures designed to distinguish ordinary search-engine indexing from automated collection undertaken for AI training, dataset construction or other purposes.

The absence of a technical restriction at any particular time should not be interpreted as a waiver of copyright or other intellectual property rights.

Technical protection is a means of enforcing or supporting a rights reservation; it is not the source of that reservation.

COPYRIGHT AND INTERNATIONAL RIGHTS

Copyright protection arises automatically in qualifying original works; registration is not required in order for copyright to exist.

Panarchic Codex® material may therefore be protected in multiple jurisdictions under applicable national laws and international copyright frameworks.

Nothing on this page is intended to exclude or restrict any rights, remedies or protections available to the rights holder under applicable law.

Where infringement or unauthorised exploitation is suspected, the relevant rights holder reserves the right to pursue appropriate remedies in the jurisdiction or jurisdictions concerned.
