ISHEA Repository Responsible Use & Licensing Guidelines

1. Introduction

Welcome to the ISHEA Institute repository system. All projects, datasets, scripts, and preprints published under ISHEA are made publicly accessible for research, replication, and academic purposes.

The Δ±1 framework and related methodologies represent sensitive intellectual property developed by ISHEA. While public availability promotes transparency and scientific reproducibility, any adaptation, modification, or commercial use requires prior written consent from the ISHEA Institute.

2. Scope

This Wiki applies to all ISHEA projects including but not limited to:

Datasets (CSV, JSON, experimental raw data)

Scripts, code, and computational notebooks

Preprints, manuscripts, and posters

Supplementary materials and figures

Public sharing does not imply permission for commercial exploitation or unregulated application.

3. Responsible Use

Researchers and users may:

1. Download and use data or scripts for:

Academic research

Reproduction of results

Teaching and training purposes

2. Cite the original source using DOI or OSF project links.

Users may NOT:

Apply the Δ±1 methodology in commercial or product development without explicit written consent

Redistribute datasets or scripts as “own work” or under another license

Modify core algorithms or weighting systems for external applications without ISHEA approval

4. Citation

When using any ISHEA materials, please cite:

Pérez Pulido, C.J. · ISHEA Institute · [Project Title] · [Year] · DOI: [DOI Link]

Example for PEFI / Planetary Energy Flow data:

Pérez Pulido, C.J. · ISHEA Institute · Integrating Planetary Energy Flows, Solar Cycles, and Biosystem Dynamics · 2026 · DOI: 10.17605/OSF.IO/GY83R

5. Contact for Commercial or Applied Use

All inquiries for commercial or applied use of Δ±1 methodology, proprietary weighting, or datasets should be addressed to:

ISHEA Institute
isheainstitute.org@gmail.com

Include:

Your intended use case

Project or organization details

Requested data/methodology

6. Opt-Out / SHARE Indexing

By default, OSF public projects are indexed into SHARE for discoverability. While your profile and projects are included, all public projects, files, and preprints remain discoverable.

To reduce indexing of your personal profile, follow OSF settings:

Go to Profile > Account Settings > “Exclude me from SHARE indexing”

Note: public content will still appear in searches.

7. Headers for Files

For every dataset or document, include the following header (first line):

© 2026 ISHEA Institute. Public access for academic research only. Commercial application requires prior written consent.

8. Updates

This Wiki will be updated periodically to reflect:

New datasets

Methodological revisions

Additional legal guidance

Always check the latest version before citing or using ISHEA materials.

✅ Summary

Public access = academic/research use only

Commercial use = prior written consent required

Cite all ISHEA materials

Centralized project Wiki ensures consistent legal guidance
