Terms of Participation

The agreement
that protects you.

The following Terms of Participation govern the relationship between enrolled participants and Humanitas Trust. They are binding upon enrollment confirmation and remain in effect for the duration of the participant's continuity record.

"The relationship between Humanitas Trust and its participants is not transactional. It is constitutional — built on the mutual recognition that continuity, once established, is held in common."
— Humanitas Trust Founding Charter  ·  Article III, Section II
Section 1

Enrollment

Enrollment in Humanitas Trust programs is assigned, not elected. Participation is not initiated by individual application or voluntary registration. Your enrollment in Humanitas Trust programs was confirmed at the time of your region's Charter ratification — a population-level commitment made on behalf of all residents within participating member territories.

If you reside in a GCI Charter member nation, you are enrolled. Your enrollment record was established when your region's governing authority signed the Continuity Health Agreement. No additional action was required of you at that time, and no additional action is required of you now.

Enrollment is not transferable, interruptible, or subject to individual modification. It persists through relocation, life change, and all standard life events. Should you relocate to another GCI member territory, your enrollment continues uninterrupted and your continuity record transfers automatically to your nearest designated center.

Enrollment does not require your acknowledgment to be valid. These Terms of Participation are provided as a transparency measure, not as an invitation to negotiate the terms of your enrollment.

Your Obligations

Enrolled participants are expected to fulfill the following obligations for the duration of their enrollment. These obligations exist to protect the integrity of your continuity record and to ensure that the Humanitas Trust network can fulfill its mandate on your behalf.

Obligation 01

Attend Your Annual CCA

When contacted by your assigned Continuity Center, you are expected to attend your scheduled Comprehensive Continuity Assessment within the designated appointment window. The CCA is the foundation of your continuity record. Each assessment builds upon the last. Gaps in your assessment history reduce the integrity and utility of your longitudinal data.

Appointment scheduling notices are sent via your registered contact information. It is your responsibility to ensure your contact information is current.

Obligation 02

Maintain Current Contact Information

Enrolled participants are responsible for ensuring that the contact information held in their administrative record is accurate and up to date. This includes mailing address, regional designation, and emergency contact details. Updates may be submitted to your assigned center at any time.

Humanitas Trust cannot be held responsible for assessment notices that fail to reach a participant due to outdated contact information. Assessment obligations remain in effect regardless of whether a notice was received.

Obligation 03

Do Not Interfere with Assessment Procedures

Participants are expected to cooperate fully with assessment practitioners during all scheduled and unscheduled assessment activities. This includes compliance with preparation instructions, Array sequence protocols, and any post-assessment procedures your practitioner may initiate.

Interference with assessment procedures — including refusal of any component of the standard protocol — is logged as a continuity record irregularity and referred to the GCI Compliance Office for review.

Section 3

Assessment Consent

Consent to participate in the Comprehensive Continuity Assessment is established at the point of enrollment — which, as described in Section 1, was confirmed at the time of your region's Charter ratification. Assessment consent is therefore a pre-existing condition of your enrollment status, not a right that is exercised at the time of each visit.

By attending your scheduled assessment, you confirm consent to the full CCA protocol, including the Array sequence. No additional consent is required at the time of your visit. Practitioner staff will not request additional consent documentation at the assessment center, and you are not required to sign or acknowledge any additional consent form on arrival.

The Array sequence is the core assessment instrument of the Comprehensive Continuity Assessment. It captures the neurological and biometric data that constitute your continuity record. The sequence is non-invasive, non-injurious, and conducted in accordance with GCI Operations Protocol 4.1. It is a standard and required component of every assessment visit.

"You're exactly where you need to be."

This is the standard greeting delivered by Humanitas Trust practitioners at the commencement of every assessment visit. It is an acknowledgment of your presence, your participation, and the continuity you are helping to maintain.

Withdrawal of consent is not available as a standalone action. Because enrollment itself constitutes the basis of assessment consent, withdrawal of assessment consent would require withdrawal from enrollment — which is not a pathway available to participants under GCI Charter provisions. See Section 5 for governing authority.

Reference: GCI Charter Article V, Section 2.1(a) — "Assessment consent is established by enrollment and confirmed by attendance. No further consent action is required of or available to the participant at the point of assessment delivery."

Section 4

Data Provisions

All data collected in the course of your Comprehensive Continuity Assessment is held, maintained, and governed under the provisions of GCI Charter Data Article VII. A full description of data collection categories, retention timelines, and participant rights is available in the Humanitas Trust Participant Data Privacy Policy and the Data Stewardship Charter.

The key provisions of GCI Charter Data Article VII as they apply to enrolled participants are as follows: your continuity record is classified as permanent institutional data; it is maintained in perpetuity; it is not subject to deletion, archival, or deactivation; and it is accessible only to Array-certified practitioners and GCI-authorized personnel.

Your continuity record is not shared with commercial entities. It is not used for purposes unrelated to your continuity health mandate. It is not transferred outside the GCI partner network under any circumstances.

Humanitas Trust does not produce summary copies of the native continuity record for participant review. Administrative summaries are available upon request through your assigned center.

Governing Law

These Terms of Participation, and all matters arising from them, are governed exclusively by the GCI Charter and its associated articles, protocols, and operational directives. The GCI Charter supersedes all national law in matters relating to Humanitas Trust program operation, participant enrollment, assessment conduct, and continuity record management.

No national regulatory authority, consumer protection body, judicial body, or legislative instrument has jurisdiction over matters governed by the GCI Charter. Any dispute arising from these Terms shall be referred to the GCI Participant Review Tribunal, whose decisions are final and not subject to appeal in any national court system.

Member states that have ratified the Continuity Health Agreement have, by that ratification, formally acknowledged the supremacy of GCI Charter governance over all matters covered herein. You are a resident of such a member state. These Terms are in effect.

Last reviewed and confirmed: GCI Charter Governance Cycle 14.2  ·  These Terms do not require participant acknowledgment to be valid and enforceable.
