The Continuance Charter

A covenant for the person who wakes up.

The Charter governs identity, consent, privacy, clinical responsibility, system stewardship, and the limits of Aevum authority before a candidate enters transfer.

CHARTER
8.4
Effective 2087.04

Six binding principles

Continuance without ambiguity.

Written with physicians, legal scholars, existing clients, and independent substrate-rights advocates.

01

Identity continuity

The living neural core and original ocular tissue—not the chassis, account, or behavioral model—constitute the continuing person.

02

Informed transition

Consent may be withdrawn at any time before neural bridge initiation. No transfer proceeds on inferred or delegated consent alone.

03

Sensory privacy

Raw sensory-stack data is private medical information. Aevum may process it for immediate function but may not sell experiential memory.

04

Substrate custody

Clients retain biological title to the primary substrate. Aevum maintains custody only as required for clinical protection and service.

05

Motor integrity

Safety interpretation must be proportional, time-limited, logged, and available for independent clinical review.

06

Durable care

No client may be abandoned during a vital-system interruption. Protected State preserves biological life while service status is resolved.

Medical framework

Privacy begins at the edge of sensation.

Dr. Lena Mercer helped draft the Charter’s sensory-stack privacy clauses, separating the operational data required to produce touch and movement from the intimate experiential record that belongs only to the client.

Charter details

Read the clauses most candidates ask about.

02.7 Neural and ocular chain of custody +

From preoperative intake through Neural Cradle integration, each transfer of physical custody requires two clinical signatories, client-visible time stamps, and a sealed biometric record. Biological material may not be used for research without separate, revocable consent.

03.9 Sensory-stack privacy and analytics +

Immediate sensor translation occurs locally whenever technically possible. Longitudinal analytics are encrypted, purpose-limited, and retained only according to the client’s selected diagnostic window. Memories are never an Aevum product.

04.3 Care continuity and Protected State +

If an active care agreement lapses, nonessential enhancements may pause after applicable notice. Vital biological support remains active. A safe, static posture may be used when continued articulation would create a clinically material risk to the primary substrate.

05.1 Concord safety coordination +

Concord may interpret motor intent during declared environmental emergencies, high-density public incidents, or imminent structural harm. Interventions are logged and governed by regional proportionality requirements. Executive safety protocols may apply in protected venues.

07.4 Death, suspension, and final disposition +

A client may record binding end-of-continuance instructions, including biological care limits, chassis disposition, memory archive deletion, and ocular donation. Aevum does not presume indefinite intervention against a competent directive.
