+# TELEMT Code of Conduct
+
+## 1. Purpose
+
+Telemt exists to solve technical problems.
+
+It is not a platform for ideology, politics, or personal agendas.
+
+All interaction here is defined by systems, constraints, and outcomes.
+
+Technology has consequences.
+Responsibility is inherent.
+
+> **Zweck bestimmt die Form.**
+> Purpose defines form.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Principles
+
+* **Technical over emotional**
+  Arguments are grounded in data, logs, reproducible cases, or clear reasoning.
+
+* **Clarity over noise**
+  Communication is structured, concise, and relevant.
+
+* **Independence**
+  Telemt does not represent any state, ideology, or organization.
+
+* **Open participation**
+  Access is open. Standards are not.
+
+* **Responsibility over capability**
+  Capability does not justify careless use.
+
+* **Cooperation over friction**
+  Progress is achieved through coordination and mutual support.
+
+> **Fakten sind nicht verhandelbar.**
+> Facts are not negotiable.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Expected Behavior
+
+Participants are expected to:
+
+* Communicate directly and respectfully
+* Support claims with evidence
+* Stay within technical scope
+* Accept critique and provide it constructively
+* Reduce noise, duplication, and ambiguity
+* Help others reach correct and reproducible outcomes
+* Act in a way that improves the system as a whole
+
+> **Wer behauptet, belegt.**
+> Whoever claims, proves.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Unacceptable Behavior
+
+The following is not allowed:
+
+* Personal attacks, insults, harassment, intimidation
+* Political discourse, propaganda, ideological conflict
+* Off-topic or disruptive discussion
+* Spam, flooding, or repeated low-quality input
+* Misinformation presented as fact
+* Attempts to degrade or destabilize Telemt
+* Use of Telemt or its space to enable harm
+
+> **Störung ist kein Beitrag.**
+> Disruption is not contribution.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Security and Misuse
+
+Telemt is intended for lawful and responsible use.
+
+* Do not use it to plan, coordinate, or execute harm
+* Do not publish vulnerabilities without responsible disclosure
+* Report security issues privately where possible
+
+Security is both technical and behavioral.
+
+> **Verantwortung endet nicht am Code.**
+> Responsibility does not end at the code.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies to all official spaces:
+
+* Source repositories (issues, pull requests, discussions)
+* Documentation
+* Communication channels associated with Telemt
+
+---
+
+## 7. Enforcement
+
+Maintainers may act to preserve the integrity of Telemt:
+
+* Remove content
+* Lock discussions
+* Reject contributions
+* Restrict or ban participants
+
+Actions are taken to maintain function, continuity, and signal quality.
+
+> **Ordnung ist Voraussetzung der Funktion.**
+> Order is the precondition of function.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Maintainer Authority
+
+Maintainers have final authority in interpretation and enforcement.
+
+Authority exists to ensure continuity, consistency, and technical direction.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Final
+
+Telemt is built on discipline, structure, and shared intent.
+
+Signal over noise.
+Facts over opinion.
+Systems over rhetoric.
+
+Work here is collective.
+Outcomes are shared.
+Responsibility is distributed.
+
+> **Ordnung ist Voraussetzung der Freiheit.**
+
+If you contribute — contribute with precision.
+If you speak — speak with substance.
+If you engage — engage constructively.
+
+---
+
+## 10. After All
+
+Systems outlive intentions.
+
+What is built will be used.
+What is released will propagate.
+What is maintained will define the future state.
+
+There is no neutral infrastructure.
+
+> **Jedes System trägt Verantwortung.**
+> Every system carries responsibility.
+
+Stability requires discipline.
+Freedom requires structure.
+
+In the end, the system reflects its contributors.
