This version adds a contributor rights-and-authority declaration, supporting-evidence workflow and signed personalized PDF. The framework remains a compliance and governance baseline; it does not certify ownership, guarantee universal legal compliance or replace advice from qualified counsel in the relevant jurisdiction.
1. Verified identity and authority
Accounts should identify a real person or organization and the capacity in which they act. Higher-risk activity may require additional verification.
2. Rights quality
An image should not enter formal enforcement without a plausible chain of title, source material and disclosure of known licences or competing rights.
3. Evidence quality
Case evidence should be dated, attributable, reproducible where possible and preserved without misleading alteration. Uncertainty must be recorded rather than hidden.
4. Communication quality
Correspondence should be specific, accurate, proportionate, professional, non-deceptive and provide a practical route to respond or correct an error.
5. Continuous review
Atlantic may pause, downgrade, archive or close a case when quality standards are not met and may require renewed documentation before reactivation.
