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.

We support all industries, with no restrictions on regions, industries, or types of company entities, as long as the data meets the specifications and regional legal and regulatory requirements. Accordingly, we have designed a special evaluation model to score our clients as a whole, please see the link at
https://greaterheat.larksuite.com/sheets/shtusYJarxTabJTszgs9zVpEcSb

We plan to allocate approximately 25% of Datacap on a quarterly basis, with each client requesting no more than 20% of the Datacap we have.

When reviewing applications, we will evaluate the applicant's basic information, time of establishment, number of employees, registered capital, social reputation, data distribution, data volume, and history in a comprehensive manner. We can
1、Browse the official website, media platform, business information, etc. to understand the basic information of the organization.
2、Require customers to verify information through the company's domain email.
3、We make a form file to record customer sealed information for subsequent verification

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

We use a hardware wallet to store the private key to secure the account. github account and hardware wallet account are held by two separate people.

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? 

All clients' applications must undergo a rigorous review, and the more datacaps applied for, the more rigorous the review.

We will review through the following ways.
1. requesting the necessary business licenses, business registration certificates, passport information documents, etc. (email communication is recommended to protect privacy).
2. checking the company's product type, business model and news status through social media accounts, official websites and other platform information.
3. check the online corporate information of the country/region where it is located, and initially verify the business information such as business scope, establishment time, registered capital, organization scale, and equity information.
4. confirming with the official mail whether the client subject is applying for Data Cap and confirming the identity and work information of the applicant.
5. Make certain tracking records to ensure customer storage compliance.

We will ask the following questions (flexible according to the client's reality).
1. Can you share some information about yourself/your organization, including online social media/website links, etc.?
2. How much data do you want to store, what is your data source, and can you provide some evidence to prove it?
3. What is your initial data storage plan like? What are the appropriate SPs being communicated with? Can you list their names?
4. What are you currently using for storage, and what is the approximate price, quantity, and frequency of use?
5. What is your strategy for uploading data to Filecoin?
6. Can you share the reality of your Datacap allocation usage to ensure Datacap usage compliance?
7. What data content are you storing and does this content comply with local laws and Filecoin community standards and regulations?

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 proceed in the following ways and means.
1. upfront detailed and effective KYC, due diligence and explanation of rules are essential to encourage clients to assign Datacap to different SPs.
2. requiring clients to regularly disclose transaction information.
3. we will conduct regular checks through the filplus.info website to record Datacap transactions and allocations and verify them in conjunction with client disclosures.
4. we will give a reminder once we find that the client has violated the rules. If the violation is serious, we will disclose the customer's illegal operation in the slack public community.

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 will follow FIL+ guidelines and make our allocation decisions and audit process publicly available on Github.

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

we will keep the public GitHub records and a private chat via Slack or Telegram.Besides, without disclosing any confidential information about our clients, we are happy to respond to reasonable inquiries or inquiries that community members may have regarding our DataCap allocation decisions.
