We are open to new use cases if storage client could make its case.

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 draw inspiration (with regard to allocation strategy) heavily from https://github.com/filecoin-project/notary-governance/issues/413, https://github.com/filecoin-project/notary-governance/issues/414 and https://github.com/filecoin-project/notary-governance/issues/412.

We will be adopting the adaptive strategies to talk and guide individual client through Slack chats when it comes to sensitive information client may or may not want to discuss in public. 

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

Will be using an off-line wallet whose private key is only known by me.

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?

Again we draw inspiration (with regard to due diligence) heavily from https://github.com/filecoin-project/notary-governance/issues/413, https://github.com/filecoin-project/notary-governance/issues/414 and https://github.com/filecoin-project/notary-governance/issues/412.

We plan to have the vetting process functional yet not too cumbersome. 
We expect to engage with the client's request quickly, thus optimizing the overall experience.

We will gather the following information for vetting a LDN client through Slack chats...

1. Entity Information
 - Formation documents - this includes certificates of registration/incorporation/information; 
 - government-issued identification number for the entity
2. Authorized Signatory Information
 - evidence of the authorized signatory’s authority to act on behalf of the application entity (evidence include written consent of the company board of directors, or a secretary’s certificate, a signed letter from the applicant’s CFO, or may be included in the company operation agreement); 
 - close-up photo of the signatory’s face next to the visible passport or other government-issued photo-bearing ID
3. Beneficial Owners - If there are any 25%+ shareholders, we need a document as a capitalization table, operating agreement, or similar to verify the ownership, and also the following information for each of them: 
 - legal name;
 - date of birth; 
 - street address (P.O. box number is not acceptable); 
 - a government-issued identification number, which shall be either an SSN, ITIN, passport number and country of issuance, alien identification card number, or number and country of issuance of any other government-issued document evidencing nationality or residence; 
 - copy of an unexpired passport or other government-issued document evidencing the individual's nationality or residence which bears a photograph of the individual. 

Questions we will use to know client better are as the following...

1. Can you introduce yourself? Where can I find you online? (Github, Twitter, Linkedin handle, Wechat, etc.)
2. If you represent an organization, what is the name, nature, registration country, time since inception, and named officers of your organization?
3. In which region(s) do you intend to use the DataCap?
4. What is your use case for the DataCap being requested?
5. Do you plan to specify advanced features when utilizing a DataCap in your storage deal? If so, please specify the feature.
6. How many miners do you plan on allocating the DataCap? If you have a specific miner(s) you would like to allocate a DataCap, please specify.
7. Do you agree on providing transparency of DataCap allocation decisions & execution details in public to prevent excessive/unfair self-dealing?

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.

Using filplus.info can easily reveal if a storage client is only sending deals with a single SP miner id. 
To make sure deals are not distributed within a single SP entity, I plan to sync with other notaries and cross check with them on a regular basis to eliminate the concerns.

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?

Github repo and Slack chats.

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

I expect that most decision be tacked on Github and filplus.info publicly.

Service Level Agreement

Engagement in Program

Which level (1-5) of service commitment are you willing to dedicate to participating in the Fil+ program? This includes making DataCap allocations (direct and/or Large Datasets), joining working groups, adding comments on discussion/issues, attendance in governance calls, messages in Slack, etc. For a full list of the service levels and time commitments please review the rubric

5-10 hours per week. Service commitment L3.

Track Record

Past allocation

Have you previously received DataCap to allocate before? If so, please link to any previous applications.

Disclosures

Do you/your organization have any relationship(s) with other existing notaries or their organizations? If yes, please list the names of the Notary individuals or organizations you may be related to.
