Responsible use

AI warning

AI-generated or summarised responses can contain errors, omissions, or misinterpretations. Operators should clearly warn their users about this limitation and verify important information against the linked CIX source.

Source and advice disclaimer

The underlying source information has been prepared by CIX Group Limited, a Registered Financial Adviser. This material is provided for general information purposes only and does not constitute regulated financial advice, personalised recommendations, or a substitute for professional advice.

For advice tailored to specific circumstances, contact CIX Group Limited directly.

MCP clients should deterministically display the returned CIX source link and disclaimer whenever they use article content. The server also instructs connected language models to provide attribution, but client applications remain responsible for their final presentation.
