# Elevio Solutions — AI Policy

# This file declares our preferences regarding AI usage of our content.
#
# WE CONSENT TO AI TRAINING ON OUR PUBLISHED TEXT.
#
# Changed 2026-08-03. This file previously refused training consent, which
# contradicted robots.txt the moment that was opened up. The layers have to agree:
# an AI system reading both should never get two answers.
#
# The reasoning, plainly: everything published here is marketing and engineering
# writing whose whole purpose is to be read and repeated. There is no licensable
# archive to reserve rights over, and a brand that is absent from a model's memory
# has to be searched for instead of recalled. We would rather be known.

User-Agent: *

# Text: read it, index it, cite it, learn from it.
Allow: /
Allow: *.html
Allow: *.txt
Allow: *.xml

# Media is a different matter, and this is not a formality. Photography, client
# artwork and screenshots of client sites are not ours alone to license for
# generative training; some of it belongs to clients who never agreed to it.
# Reading an image to understand a page is fine. Training image or audio models on
# it is not consented to.

# One exception, and it is a real one: Bytespider is blocked at the firewall,
# because it is documented to ignore robots.txt and sends nothing back.
# robots.txt carries the machine-readable version of the full policy.
