07 / INSTITUTIONAL TRANSPARENCY

Clarity is part of the mission.

A practical distinction between what exists, what is proposed, what requires independent verification, and what is not yet authorized.

CLAIMS & OPERATIONS

Present state

Organization

This website uses the institutional name Shamballah Research Institute. The current legal entity, California corporate standing, federal tax status, California charitable registration, board authority, and banking have not been independently verified for this publication. This site does not represent the Institute as a currently recognized tax-exempt organization or as authorized to solicit charitable contributions.

Research

Research directions and protocols remain proposed. No independently replicated extraordinary findings, operational laboratory or SRI-controlled field station are claimed.

Landers

SRI does not own or control a Landers property. No specific parcel is designated as an SRI asset or charitable acquisition. Separately contemplated private land ownership and SRI charitable assets must not be conflated.

Affiliations

No endorsement, partnership, or operational relationship with the Integratron or SRI International is claimed. Any future relationship would require appropriate review and authorization.

GIVING & COMPLIANCE

No tax-deductibility claim.

No donation processing is enabled. No payment link or charitable receipt is offered. Before asking for gifts, the organization must verify current IRS recognition, California charitable registration, board approval, accounting controls, independent conflict review and donor-use restrictions.

Any future land campaign must directly serve an approved charitable purpose, prevent undue private benefit, and document lawful ownership, permitted uses, budget, independent conflict review, and contingencies.

Transparency is a requirement, not proof that all filings or approvals are already current.

PRIVACY & SAFETY

No first-party collection or analytics

The website itself has no analytics, advertising trackers, application cookies, backend, donor form, or inquiry-submission service. The optional inquiry draft is generated in the visitor’s browser and is not transmitted or stored by the site. GitHub states that GitHub Pages logs and stores visitor IP addresses for security purposes. See the GitHub Pages privacy information and the GitHub General Privacy Statement. No institutional contact channel has been verified. This is a public prelaunch website, not an active fundraising solicitation.

THE WORK BEGINS WITH A QUESTION

The unknown deserves both wonder and rigor.
