Please read this disclaimer carefully before using The Finders platform, website, related websites, applications, assessments, AI features, community features, or related content (collectively, the “Platform”).
The Platform is provided by the Fundamental Wellbeing Foundation for educational, general wellbeing, and research purposes.
THE PLATFORM IS NOT A MEDICAL, MENTAL HEALTH, PSYCHOLOGICAL, PSYCHIATRIC, THERAPEUTIC, OR OTHER HEALTHCARE SERVICE. Nothing provided through the Platform is intended to diagnose, treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent any disease, disorder, or medical or mental health condition, or to replace professional care.

Assessments and Research
ASSESSMENT RESULTS SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR SELF-DIAGNOSIS OR MEDICAL DECISIONS.
Assessments and other tools provided through the Platform are intended for educational, personal insight, self-reflection, and/or research purposes only. They are not clinical or diagnostic instruments and should not be used for self-diagnosis, treatment decisions, or other medical or mental health decisions.
Assessment results and descriptions of Fundamental Wellbeing are based on research and theoretical frameworks relating to Fundamental Wellbeing. They do not provide a comprehensive evaluation of any individual, and individual experiences may differ substantially from the categories, descriptions, or results presented.
Where participation in research is offered, participation is voluntary. Any specific research study may be subject to additional information, consent, eligibility, privacy, or withdrawal terms presented separately for that study.
The educational framework helps to explore persistent wellbeing concepts, but personal experiences are unique and may not fit perfectly into any category.

Community and User Content
COMMUNITY MEMBERS ARE NOT TRAINED PROFESSIONALS. SHARED EXPERIENCES ARE PERSONAL PERSPECTIVES, NOT PROFESSIONAL GUIDANCE. NOT MEDICAL OR MENTAL HEALTH ADVICE. WE DO NOT ENDORSE OR VERIFY USER-GENERATED CONTENT.
Community features may contain information, experiences, opinions, recommendations, or other content submitted by users or third parties.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, such content represents the views of the individual contributor and not the Fundamental Wellbeing Foundation or The Finders or any related researchers. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, reliability, safety, or suitability of user-generated content.

Artificial Intelligence
Certain Platform features may use artificial intelligence (“AI”) to generate responses or other content. AI-generated content may be inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, inappropriate, or inconsistent and should not be treated as fact or professional advice.
AI features do not replace the judgment of qualified professionals. Do not rely on AI-generated content for medical, mental health, legal, financial, safety-critical, or other important decisions.
—
No Professional Relationship
Use of the Platform, including interactions with assessments, AI features, educational materials, researchers, staff, contributors, or community members, does not by itself create a doctor-patient, therapist-client, psychologist-patient, or other healthcare professional relationship.
