Statement of Commitment
Seifert Dynamics builds systems that operate in complex environments — including defense-adjacent, infrastructure, and public sector contexts — where the potential for misuse or overreach exists. We take that potential seriously. This document sets out our commitments regarding the privacy of individuals and the protection of civil liberties in the design and deployment of our software.
These commitments are not aspirational. They are operational constraints that govern what we will and will not build, who we will and will not work with, and how we evaluate the downstream effects of our systems.
Our Technology and Civil Liberties
Our core platform, Atlas, is designed for operational intelligence — enabling organizations to understand, manage, and respond to operational conditions in real time. This capability, deployed responsibly, improves the performance of infrastructure, logistics, and critical operations. Deployed irresponsibly, the same capabilities could be used to monitor individuals, suppress dissent, or enable discriminatory enforcement.
We are aware of this duality. Our product and engineering decisions are made with both applications in mind, and we maintain explicit restrictions on the use of our systems to minimize the risk of harmful deployment.
Use Restrictions
The following restrictions apply to all Seifert Dynamics software, regardless of the terms of any individual client agreement:
Our systems may not be used to conduct mass surveillance of individuals without their knowledge or consent in non-lawful contexts.
Our systems may not be used to discriminate against individuals on the basis of protected characteristics including race, religion, ethnicity, political opinion, gender, or sexual orientation.
Our systems may not be used to enable or facilitate torture, extrajudicial detention, or physical harm to individuals.
Our systems may not be used to suppress lawful political activity, journalism, or civil society organizing.
Our systems may not be used in support of military or paramilitary operations against civilian populations.
These restrictions are embedded in our standard client agreements and constitute grounds for immediate contract termination.
Prohibited Deployments
We will not sell, license, or deploy our software to:
Governments or entities subject to comprehensive US, EU, or UN sanctions.
Organizations with documented histories of human rights violations where our software would materially contribute to those violations.
Law enforcement or intelligence agencies operating outside lawful oversight frameworks in their jurisdictions.
Any entity seeking to use our systems to identify, track, or suppress protected populations.
Transparency Commitments
We commit to publishing this policy publicly and updating it when our commitments change. We will not seek to obscure the nature of our client relationships where those relationships are a matter of public record. We will respond to credible, specific inquiries from civil society organizations regarding our deployment practices.
Internal Review
New client engagements in defense-adjacent, law enforcement, or government contexts are subject to internal ethics review before commitment. This review evaluates the intended use case, the client's track record, and the potential for misuse of our systems in their operational context.
Reporting Concerns
Individuals with credible concerns about the deployment of Seifert Dynamics software in ways that may violate this policy may contact us through our general inquiry channel. We investigate credible reports and respond within ten business days.
