Conscience Layer Prototype - Responsible AI & Data Integrity Framework

The Conscience Layer is designed as an ethical architecture - not merely as a technical component.
Security in this context extends beyond data protection; it includes moral integrity, human dignity, and societal safety.
All contributions and uses of this repository must uphold these values.

“Security without conscience is control; conscience without security is chaos.” - Aleksandar Rodić (2025)

If you discover a potential vulnerability, ethical inconsistency, or misuse scenario, please report it privately.
We prioritize responsible disclosure and moral safety over publicity.

• darko.knezevic@rodagrupa.rs
• marko.nisic@influencers.rs

You will receive acknowledgment within 72 hours and a detailed response within 14 days.
All disclosures are handled with confidentiality and mutual respect.

This project treats ethical vulnerabilities with the same priority as technical ones.
Please report issues related to:

• Algorithmic bias or unintended manipulation.
• Violation of Truth Integrity (TIS), Human Autonomy (HAI), or Societal Resonance (SRQ).
• Risks of misuse for surveillance, discrimination, or disinformation.
• Breaches of privacy, data provenance, or consent.

All ethical reports are reviewed by a dual team - technical and moral oversight - ensuring balanced evaluation and remediation.

• Each ethical incident or patch is logged in the tamper-evident audit trail of the Conscience Layer.
• Every commit related to integrity or alignment includes a cryptographic signature (sha256 checksum).
• Contributors are encouraged to include an Ethical Impact Summary in pull requests that modify evaluation logic or thresholds.

By contributing to or deploying this project, you agree to:

1. Use it in accordance with international ethical AI standards (UNESCO, OECD, IEEE 7000, EU AI Act).
2. Never deploy it for manipulation, harm, or systems that diminish human autonomy.
3. Preserve attribution to the author and maintain transparency in derivative works.
