Allocation Plan refer to the Rubric to see how this impacts your Notary score

Concreteness of Allocation Plan

Allocation Strategy

How do you plan on allocating the DataCap requested above? Please describe your allocation strategy with as much specificity as you can. This includes the target amount per client and rate at which you'll allocate DataCap.

1. DataCap will be priority allocated to the applicants from Oceania, Africa and Europe. Due to the current unbalanced development of Filcoin, there are few customers in Oceania, Africa and Europe, and they should got priority to be served.
2. We will classify customers based on their industry reputation and scale. 
   All customers will be divided into four categories: big team customers, medium team customers, small team customers, and individual. 
   The four categories of customers are allocated 40%, 30%, 20%, and 10% respectively.

3. The client classification rules are as follows:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LjVLLmV0GxEDZf4eH5hv3m2v00qDzbKlez9g0-t95RY/edit?usp=sharing

4. In the initial stage of specific allocation, we will take out a small part (<10%) of each category for testing, and gradually establish a reputation mechanism (including incentive, punishment, supervision)

5. Each assignment will be used to evaluate the customer's reputation.
   For example, if a customer applies the DataCap which is valid and efficient, the reputation credit will increase.
   With higher credit, the customer can apply more DataCap (maximum increase 200%).

6. Throughout the allocation and use the DataCap, we will establish a corresponding review mechanism.   
   Good customer will be rewarded, bad customer will be punished. The quality of the customer will be optimized gradually.

How do you plan on securing the DataCap to ensure your organization (and its delegated members) are the ones allocating the DataCap?

A hardware wallet will be used to store the keys for DataCap address.
Do personal due diligence with the help of operational records, community exposure and chat logs.

Client Due Diligence

How will you vet the clients that are applying for DataCap? What questions will you ask to ensure your trust is placed well and that clients can properly handle the DataCap you intend to allocate to them?

General principles:
    Noteary system is for better, faster and fairer development of Filcoin ecosystem.
    In order to promote Filecoin and  improve service to customers, it should be inclined to help customers in innovative industries, Web 3.0, NFT applications, etc. 

    For individual applicants, their identity will be verified through account activity and third party account, such as Twitter, slack, Discord, which will prove that the customer is a valid user and not a machine.

    For organizations, we will set up a due diligence team to conduct a complete review of the application form submitted by the applicant to ensure proper allocation and effective use of DataCap, and to conduct random spot checks after allocation to establish a credit system.

    The following is the recommended due diligence procedure.
    Depending on the level of customer requiring due diligence, the following questions are required to be submitted by the customer (on the basis of protecting personal privacy).

    1. Introduce yourself/your organization (with links)
    2. Applicant's relationship to the organization
    3. use case and scope.
    4. Nature of business (government, public, private, NGO)
    5. Geographical location of the client.
    6. Data sources
    7. Proof of data capacity requirements
    8. The process of using the data
    9. Whether to agree to the use of data after a sample check.
    8. DataCap allocation request amount.
    9. disclaimer of liability
    10. Reproduction rights statement and legal compliance requirements.

What processes will you employ when granting additional DataCap to a client that has previously been verified? This includes confirming that the client is not improperly using the DataCap they were previously granted, i.e., making deals with a single SP entity.

We will monitor and track the use of DataCap strictly.
Each assignment will be used to evaluate the clients' reputation. 
We encourage customers to allocate DataCap to more new miners, and each new miner allocation will have some incentives.
Also, we will develop a tool to randomly check verified transactions of all customers to ensure they comply with the agreement.
If some problems are found, there will be a person to communicate and coordinate in time, and give the right to explain to the customer. 

Bookkeeping Plan

Do you plan on conducting all your allocation decisions in public (e.g. Github repo), private (e.g. over email, Telegram, etc), or both?

We plan on making all allocation decisions public by recording them in a Github repo.  if we have detailed communication needs E-mail, we will save the screenshots.. 
If selected, we will establish a Discord and Telegram as well.

Where do you plan on keeping a publicly accessible record of all your allocation decisions?

We keep records of all missions and make them public
We will also build Discord and Telegram gradually.

@laff2022

Thank you for applying to serve as a Notary in this 4th round of elections for the Filecoin Plus program. This round’s pool of applicants was the largest and most accomplished in the programs history; and in light of this, we were unable to offer positions to every worthy applicant. After carefully reviewing the application, I’m sorry to inform that it was not selected as a Notary in this 4th round.

Please know that this decision in no way diminishes your application. We are impressed by the contributions you’ve demonstrated and hope you continue to drive the success of the Filecoin storage system. The 5th round of new Notary Elections is scheduled to open in Q2 of 2023, and we encourage you to maintain a presence in the community and return during the next round. Please reach out to Galen, Kevin-FF, or Philip on Slack if you have any questions.

Thank you for the hard work your application represents.
