Version 1.0 — October 16, 2026
© 2026 Harrison Interactive LLC. All rights reserved.
This End User License Agreement (this "Agreement") is a legal agreement between you ("you" or the "Licensee") and Harrison Interactive LLC ("Harrison Interactive," "we," or "us") for the Helena software. By downloading, installing, copying, or using Helena, you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not download, install, or use Helena, and delete any copies in your possession.
1. The software
"Helena" (H.E.L.E.N.A. — Highly Evolved Local Entity for Natural Assistance) is a local AI creation and assistance application published by Harrison Interactive. Helena includes the standalone Windows application, the host and companion programs, the web-based user interface, and — where provided — the plugin for Unreal Engine, together with their updates, documentation, and bundled content (together, the "Software"). Helena is designed to run on your own computer.
2. License grant
Subject to this Agreement, Harrison Interactive grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the Software on computers that you own or control, for your own projects and work, in accordance with the tier of the Software you hold (Section 4). You may make backup copies of your installation for your own archival purposes. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
3. Ownership
The Software is the property of Harrison Interactive LLC and its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, and other laws. The Software is licensed, not sold. This Agreement transfers no ownership of the Software to you.
4. Tiers
Helena is offered in tiers. Your tier determines which features and services are enabled; the price and the exact feature list for a tier are those presented where you obtained Helena, and are not changed by this Agreement.
- Lite. The free tier. Lite includes Helena's teaching, mentoring,
- Elite. A paid tier, purchased for a one-time charge, which enables

active, enables additional capabilities including hosted compute services (Section 9).
active, enables everything in Ultimate at the widest hosted scale.
Two commitments apply at every tier. Knowledge and safety functionality is included at every tier and is never separately paywalled. And computation that runs locally, on your own hardware, is never metered by us; metering, where a plan provides for it, applies only to hosted compute time.
5. Accounts
Some features require a Harrison Interactive account. If you create an account, you agree to provide accurate information, to keep your credentials secure, and that you are responsible for activity under your account. License validation exchanges only the information needed to verify your entitlement and device.
6. Acceptable use
You agree to use the Software lawfully. In particular, you agree not to use the Software to:
- infringe the intellectual-property, privacy, or other rights of any
- create, store, or distribute malware or content that is unlawful;
- harass, defame, or harm any person, or facilitate wrongdoing; or
- interfere with the security or operation of the Software or of any
person;
service it connects to.
7. Restrictions
You may not, and you may not permit or help anyone else to:
- redistribute, rent, lease, lend, or resell the Software as a standalone
- bypass, disable, or circumvent license, entitlement, or account checks
- remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or license notice
- reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software, except to the
product or service;
in the Software;
in or on the Software; or
extent that applicable law grants you a right to do so that cannot be waived.
8. Your content and your creations
Your files, projects, prompts, and data are yours. Everything you create with Helena — projects, builds, scenes, assets, documents, text, code, and every other output or work product — is your sole property. Harrison Interactive claims no ownership of your content or creations, and acquires no rights in them except the limited rights strictly needed to operate a feature you choose to use (for example, to carry out a hosted-compute request you send, under Section 9).
9. Privacy and data practices
Helena is local-first, and these practices are terms of this Agreement, not marketing statements:
- Local by default. Helena's core functions run on your computer.
- No training on your data. Ever. We do not use your content, your

computer only when you export it and choose to send it.
Our Privacy Policy, published on our website, describes account and website data practices and is part of the terms that govern your use.
10. Third-party components and the Lena Model
The Software includes or works with third-party components, which remain under their own licenses:
- Unreal Engine. Where Helena is used as an Unreal Engine plugin,
- Open-source components. Components provided under open-source
- Third-party models in some releases. Some releases include a

third-party AI model as a component. Such a model is licensed under its own license (for the Qwen3 component in the 1.x standalone releases, the Apache License 2.0), which governs that component.
Harrison Interactive's own Lena model and knowledge library are additionally governed by the Lena Model License, Version 1.0, which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference for those releases. Its full text accompanies the standalone distribution and is published at harrisoninteractive.dev/legal.
11. Updates
We may provide updates to the Software. Updates may add, change, or remove features; material changes to this Agreement will be published as a new version of this Agreement with a new date, and will apply to the releases that carry them.
12. AI outputs and accuracy
Helena's answers, explanations, and generated content are produced with the help of AI systems and deterministic tools, and they can be wrong. You are responsible for reviewing outputs before relying on them, and for everything you build or decide with them. Helena is a creative and educational tool; nothing it produces is legal, medical, financial, or other professional advice.
13. Warranty disclaimer
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. Nothing in this Section limits rights that applicable law does not allow you to waive.
14. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HARRISON INTERACTIVE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM THE SOFTWARE OR THIS AGREEMENT. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM THE SOFTWARE OR THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO HARRISON INTERACTIVE FOR HELENA IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE — OR, IF YOU PAID NOTHING (INCLUDING UNDER THE FREE LITE TIER), FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (USD $50). Nothing in this Section excludes liability that applicable law does not allow to be excluded.
15. Termination
This Agreement is effective until terminated. It terminates automatically if you materially breach it. Harrison Interactive may also suspend access to hosted services for abuse of those services. On termination you must stop using the Software and delete your copies of it. Termination does not affect your ownership of your creations under Section 8. Sections 3, 8, 9, 13, 14, and 16 survive termination.
