+Below is a list of declarations, or beliefs, that define the Crown community. As a member of the community, which you become by using the platform and software – you agree to be governed by, and to protect, these declarations. These statements are a starting point and are expected to evolve. We do not believe that one can create a community of value and use to humans without incorporating some agreed upon set of human values.
