## What are the values of Nightscout

We are compelled in the pursuit of **humane** and **equitable** application of technology to **liberating people from the burden of diabetes**. We are not waiting to deliver the benefits we've found in **sharing _all_ diabetes experiences**. Nightscout is free to contribute, free to access, free to criticize, free to try, free to depend on, free to modify, and free to distribute. The Nightscout community demands **respect** and **dignity** for all community members. The reputation of the Nightscout community is affected by the **quality** of the source code, the quality of our relationships, the quality of our discussions, what we are known for doing: the way we treat each other.
