No AI Movement™ Membership Terms
1. About these Membership Terms
1.1. These No AI Movement™ Membership Terms (“Membership Terms”) set out the rules of membership in No AI Movement™.

Human to Human means preserving space for direct human participation in work, creativity, services and communication, and allowing people to consciously recognise when there is a human on the other side. No AI Movement™ is not an anti-technology movement and does not oppose the use of AI as such. It supports the use of technology where it does not replace people in areas where human involvement matters.
1.3. These Membership Terms are international in scope.
1.4. Membership is voluntary and free of charge.
1.5. The official version of the Membership Terms is the English version.

4.3. The only official membership title is:
Member of No AI Movement™
4.4. No AI Movement™ may use an internal engagement classification of Member / Active Member.
4.5. The Active Member classification is for internal purposes only. It does not create any additional rights, decision-making authority, right to remuneration, employment, reward or any other claim against the Operator or No AI Movement™. It may, however, be used by the Operator to identify particularly engaged Members who, at the Operator’s discretion, may in the future be invited to paid cooperation, receive a reward or receive another form of recognition.
4.6. The internal engagement classification is not a public membership level.
5. Who May Become a Member

7.2. After the application is approved, the Member is entered in the internal Members register and receives a Member ID in accordance with the applicable identification system.
7.3. The Member ID is permanently assigned to that membership record and is not reused.

a) the Member resigns; or
b) the Operator terminates the membership.

13.2. A Member may independently make initial contact and provide No AI Movement™ Official Materials without the Operator’s prior approval.

13.5. All contacts covered by this section are subject to the No-AI rule set out in section 12.

16.2. Membership itself does not transfer a Member’s copyright to the Operator.

16.7. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the rights covered by the licence may continue to be exercised by a future successor or operator of No AI Movement™.
16.8. The licence is granted for an indefinite period and does not automatically expire solely because of resignation, suspension or termination of membership. Its duration, termination rights and other legal effects are subject to mandatory provisions of applicable law.
16.9. Submission of an idea to No AI Movement™:
a) does not create an automatic right to remuneration;
b) does not oblige the Operator to implement the idea;
c) does not automatically create an obligation to keep the idea confidential.
16.10. If use of an idea or Contribution requires a separate transfer or grant of patent rights, know-how rights, copyright or other protected rights not covered by this licence, a separate arrangement is required.
17. No Right to Employment, Remuneration, Ownership or Management
17.1. Membership itself does not create an employment relationship or any other employment arrangement between a Member and the Operator or No AI Movement™.

a) remuneration;
b) a share of profits;
c) shares, stock or other ownership rights;
d) ownership of No AI Movement™;
e) participation in management;

17.3. Carrying out voluntary Contributions or other membership activities does not, by itself, create a right to remuneration.
18. Separate Paid Cooperation
18.1. The Operator may, at its discretion, offer a Member separate paid cooperation.
18.2. Any paid cooperation requires a separate arrangement or agreement and does not arise from membership itself.
18.3. Membership does not create a claim to or promise of future employment or paid cooperation.
18.4. This also applies if No AI Movement™ is sold, transferred or operated by a different owner or operator in the future.
18.5. The Operator may, at its discretion, recommend particularly engaged individuals to a future operator or owner, but a Member has no right to expect such a recommendation or any employment resulting from it.

18.7. If No AI Movement™ or related rights, assets or activities are sold or transferred in the future, the Operator may, at its discretion, allocate part of the proceeds received to voluntary benefits for particularly engaged Members.
18.8. Sections 18.6 and 18.7 do not create any right to a share of profits, sale proceeds, the value of No AI Movement™, shares, stock or other assets. They also do not constitute a promise or guarantee of any future payment. Any such benefit depends solely on a separate decision of the Operator and, where required, on a separate arrangement or agreement.
19. Relationship with No AI Declaration™ and No AI Certification™
19.1. Membership in No AI Movement™ is independent of No AI Declaration™ and No AI Certification™.
19.2. Becoming a Member does not mean that No AI Declaration™ or No AI Certification™ has been granted.
19.3. Membership itself does not constitute verification or certification that a Member’s activities comply with No-AI principles.

20.1. A Member may be included in the public Member directory only after giving explicit consent to publication.
20.2. Lack of consent to publication does not affect the validity of membership.

23. Effects of Suspension, Resignation and Termination
23.1. During suspension, membership formally continues, but the Member may not present their status in a way that suggests active membership status or current authority to act on behalf of No AI Movement™.
23.2. After resignation or termination, an Individual or Organization may not present themselves as a current Member of No AI Movement™.
23.3. During suspension and after resignation or termination, names, marks, Official Materials or membership designations may not be used in a way that suggests, as applicable, active status, current membership, authority or official representation of No AI Movement™.

a) a change in applicable law, regulatory requirements or decisions of competent authorities;
b) a change in the operating model, organizational structure, operator or owner of No AI Movement™ where that change requires adjustment of the membership rules;
c) the introduction, modification or discontinuation of functions, processes or services related to membership;

24.8. The Operator informs Members of a new version by sending a message to the email address recorded for the relevant Member and publishes the new version through No AI Movement™. The new version is made available in a way that allows the Member to store and reproduce it in the ordinary course of activities. The information is provided before the Effective date of the new version, with sufficient advance notice to allow the Member to review the changes and, if the Member does not wish to accept them, resign from membership before they take effect.
24.9. A Member may resign from membership before a new version takes effect.
24.10. If the Member does not resign and membership continues after the Effective date of the new version, the new version applies to the continuing membership to the extent permitted by applicable law.
