Client Diligence

10. Who are your target clients?:
Individuals learning about Filecoin, Small-scale developers or data owners, Enterprise Data Clients

11. Describe in as much detail as possible how you will perform due diligence on clients. If you are proposing an automated pathway, what diligence mechanism will you use to determine client eligibility?:
The purpose of allocating the DataCap is to make sure clients use these DataCap in the right way to store real and valid data. We firstly specify some rules to figure out the true identity of the applicant.
• Browse their official website to get a general understanding of the company or the individual.
• Query the company's registration information from government related websites to make sure the information he submitted is truth.
• Ask some questions to know about the applicant's position/organization/plan/use case etc.
• Then We will classify applicants based on their industry reputation and scale etc. All applicants will be divided into eight categories to determine the amount of datacap they will get.
The whole application process should be open and transparent. There are only several necessary internal processes Currently:
• Some brief communications via e-mail to make sure the e-mail address is authentic and valid.
• For some companies involved in confidentiality that can’t answer some details in public, we will have some communications in our private repository. In the event of a dispute, we will share the repository with officials immediately. The target and amount of our allocation can be found in the scoring guidelines.

12. Please specify how many questions you’ll ask, and provide a brief overview of the questions.:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oM_Urz8TwwiijQt8EZDxaNYe2yJR56PDXQYnYQvCnPo/edit#gid=0

13. Will you use a 3rd-party Know your client (KYC) service?:
search.sunbiz.org

Any client can apply to my pathway

15. How do you plan to track the rate at which DataCap is being distributed to your clients?:
I plan to track the rate once or twice a week trough tools.

Data Diligence

16. As an operating entity in the Filecoin Community, you are required to follow all local & regional regulations relating to any data, digital and otherwise. This may include PII and data deletion requirements, as well as the storing, transmit:
Acknowledge

17. What type(s) of data would be applicable for your pathway?:
Private Non-Profit/Social Impact, Private Commercial/Enterprise, Public Open Commercial/Enterprise, Public Open Dataset (Research/Non-Profit)

18. How will you verify a client’s data ownership? Will you use 3rd-party KYB (know your business) service to verify enterprise clients?:
To verify a client's data ownership, I would use a combination of methods, including requesting official documentation such as business registration certificates, tax identification numbers, and other relevant legal documents. I may also verify the client's data ownership through third-party sources such as public records and databases.
Using a third-party KYB service to verify enterprise clients can be a valuable additional layer of verification. This service can provide access to comprehensive databases and sources of information to confirm the legitimacy and ownership of the client's business. It can also help to identify any potential red flags or discrepancies in the client's data.
Ultimately, the decision to use a third-party KYB service to verify enterprise clients will depend on the specific requirements and risk assessment of the business. It can be a useful tool to enhance the due diligence process and ensure the accuracy and legitimacy of the client's data ownership.

19. How will you ensure the data meets local & regional legal requirements?:
Research local and regional legal requirements: Start by thoroughly researching the data protection and privacy laws in the specific local and regional areas in which the data will be stored and processed.

20. What types of data preparation will you support or require?:
The displayed data should be representative, able to illustrate certain characteristics and attributes of the entire data, such as data volume, data generation rate, etc.

21. What tools or methodology will you use to sample and verify the data aligns with your pathway?:
I will use random sampling to ensure that the data is representative of the entire population. This will involve selecting a random sample from the dataset to analyze and verify

Data Distribution

22. How many replicas will you require to meet programmatic requirements for distribution?:
5+

Yes, I will use a template to do recording.

26. What tooling will you use to verify client deal-making distribution?:
the CID checker botYes.

27. How will clients meet SP distribution requirements?:
Yes. I will.

28. As an allocator, do you support clients that engage in deal-making with SPs utilizing a VPN?:

Hi @Patapon0702

Wanted to send a friendly check in.
As of this comment date, haven't seen any client applications or DataCap disbursements for the organization. Inactive organizations are in the process of being reviewed to see if still wanting to remain in program. If you would like this pathway to remain active as an Allocator, kindly asking that you reply to the proposal with your timeline for onboarding pathway or plan for action to clients.

[Kevin-FF-USA]

Hi @Patapon0702
Tonight is the final night to provide a timeline for activity to this Allocator. If we don't hear from you in filecoin-project/Allocator-Governance#6 this Allocator pathway will be sunset and you will need to reapply in order to receive DataCap again.

If you wish to remain active, please respond to Issue 6 with a timeline /or/ roadmap.

Warmly,
-Kevin
