Access conditions
- The pinned LICENSE.md contains MIT terms; hosting and stimulus materials have separate conditions.
- Browser, keyboard and display affect timing. Builder export is not an arbitrary line-by-line Python conversion; Pavlovia has separate service terms.
- Community indexing of this software or analysis workflow only. External models, datasets, services and third-party components have separate terms. Installation, scientific accuracy and suitability were not validated.
- Builder compatibility is component-specific; browser behaviour differs from desktop PsychoPy.
- Hosting services and participant data handling require their own arrangements.
