6. Purpose Coaching
striped.one is dedicated to fostering purposeful living, ethical decision-making, and the promotion of the principles outlined in the 5 pillars of striped.one:
- the striped.one’s application of the Charter for Compassion
- the Purpose Economy
- the striped.one’s application of the Sustainable Development Goals,
- the Leuk philosophy
- The Earth Testament
As part of our commitment to these values, we support and encourage the development of purpose coaches who apply these principles in various personal, organizational, and community contexts.
It is important to note, however, that while striped.one provides resources, guidance, and a platform for purpose coaches, each coach operates autonomously and makes independent decisions. striped.one does not control, direct, or oversee the specific actions, decisions, or methods employed by purpose coaches in their personal or professional capacities.
By engaging with the striped.one platform and its resources, users acknowledge and accept this disclaimer of liability. striped.one remains committed to its mission of promoting purposeful living and ethical action within a global community but cannot accept liability for the individual actions of purpose coaches.
Limitation of Liability
striped.one, its affiliates, partners, team members, or representatives shall not be liable for any actions taken, or omissions made, by purpose coaches in their application of the principles advocated by striped.one.
striped.one expressly disclaims liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses (even if striped.one has been advised of the possibility of such damages), resulting from the actions or decisions of purpose coaches.
Users of the striped.one platform and its resources acknowledge and agree that they engage with purpose coaches at their own risk and are encouraged to perform due diligence before acting on any advice or guidance provided by purpose coaches.
Autonomy of Purpose Coaches
Purpose coaches are independent individuals who align with the values and principles of striped.one but act independently of the organization. Their actions, decisions, and methodologies are their own and do not reflect the official policy or position of striped.one.
striped.one provides resources and support to purpose coaches without assuming responsibility for their specific actions or interventions in their respective fields of work.

11. Updates of the Disclaimer
The changing nature of our platform and the world shows that constant change is a normal part of human society and the Earth. As we deal with new technologies, social changes, and environmental issues, we see that being flexible and innovative is essential.

They encourage us to learn more about our history, understand what’s happening now, and plan for the future. Our platform is a small example of the bigger picture, showing the strength, creativity, and spirit of humans. Moving forward, we realize that change is the only thing that stays the same, and how we respond to it will shape what we leave behind for the future.
