Terms

Terms of use for the OpenDeco public website and the material published on it.

Last updated 31 August 2026.

These terms cover reading the OpenDeco website and reusing what it publishes. They do not replace the licence on any individual item, and they do not replace the conditions a third-party source attached to its own material.

What is published here

OpenDeco publishes research pages, dataset records, model records, benchmark material and software documentation for reading. Each of those records states its own source, version and conditions, and those statements are what governs the record.

Reuse of published material

Use of a page, figure, dataset or software artifact is governed by the licence attached to that exact item. Where an item shows no licence, no licence is granted for it. The licences page carries the licence on the source code, the licence on the typefaces and the rights record for every image on the site.

Research and operational use

OpenDeco is a research and information platform. Nothing it publishes is an operational dive plan, medical advice or safety clearance, and no model implementation published here reproduces a published decompression model. The research and safety notice sets out that boundary and applies wherever a model output is shown.

Third-party material

Third-party code, data, images, figures and documents keep their original licences and source conditions. OpenDeco cannot extend rights it does not hold, so republishing an item from this site means meeting the conditions its original source set.

Programmatic access

Requests made by a client are covered by the API terms, which set out how the rights on a record travel with a response.

Reporting a problem

Report a factual, unit, citation, dataset or model error through the correction route. Report a security issue privately through the vulnerability disclosure route.
