    Terms of Service

    Last updated: April 16, 2026

    By using The Archivist Method™ (thearchivistmethod.com), you agree to the following terms.

    WHAT THIS IS

    The Archivist Method is a pattern interruption education system. It provides behavioral pattern recognition training, self-directed exercises, and digital tools for personal development.

    The Archivist Method isn't therapy, and that's the point. Therapy processes your past. This excavates the patterns running your present. It's built for people who already understand themselves and still can't stop. If you're in crisis or need clinical support, we'll always point you there first.

    YOUR ACCOUNT

    You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. One account per person. Don't share your login or purchased materials with others.

    PURCHASES & REFUNDS

    All purchases are one-time payments. No subscriptions. No recurring charges.

    YOUR CONTENT

    Anything you enter into the AI chat, pattern logs, or interrupt logs belongs to you. We don't sell your data. We don't share it. We don't use it for advertising.

    INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

    The Archivist Method™, all written content, The Four Doors Protocol, pattern descriptions, field guides, and the Complete Archive are protected intellectual property. You may not redistribute, resell, or republish any materials without written permission.

    THE AI

    The Pocket Archivist is a pattern recognition assistant. It is not a therapist. It does not provide medical, legal, or financial advice. Use your judgment. If something doesn't feel right, trust yourself over the AI.

    LIABILITY

    The Archivist Method is provided as-is. We make no guarantees about specific outcomes. Pattern interruption is a practice. Results depend on your engagement with the method. We are not liable for decisions you make based on the content or tools provided.

    CHANGES

    We may update these terms. If we do, we'll update the date at the top. Continued use means you accept the updated terms.
