In His Name, the Most High

# Principles

What we hold to, and why.

## We do the technology; the hawza does the scholarship

This was agreed with the hawza from the start. We build the tools and a careful way of keeping what they hold; the scholars and students of the hawza write, review and judge. Nothing on this site, and nothing our tools produce, is a ruling.

## Privacy is a hard line

This site makes no request to anyone else: no analytics, no tracking, no fonts or scripts from elsewhere. It sets one cookie, and only if you choose a language. A message you send us is emailed to us and not stored. Our tools sell nothing to anyone, and a contributor’s recordings and records stay theirs, for life.

## Provenance is the product

Every passage carries its source and its place, every change records who made it, and every machine output says it is one. [How the model learns](https://tpilmflow.com/en/model/).

## With permission

The scholars’ material we keep is kept with the permission of their offices, and attributed to them. Finding where it is published is our work, never theirs.

## Self-funded

IlmFlow is paid for by the people who build it. We take no money with strings attached, and nothing we hold is for sale.

## Local inference

Our model runs on our own machines. Nothing a contributor records or writes is sent to an outside AI service, and the transcription of lessons, when it comes, will run there too.
