Governance

Sponsorship supports the Register. It does not control it.

Register decisions remain governed by published evidence rules, regardless of who funds the work.

What support can fund

Maintenance, hosting, research, quality assurance and coverage work. Sponsors may receive public acknowledgement and project updates.

See the upkeep record — the releases published, corrections applied and accuracy measured that sponsorship pays for.

What support cannot buy

Favourable identity, confidence or correction decisions.
Suppression or advance private handling of a public correction.
Exclusive fields, provider bridges or earlier public-release access.
Exclusion or demotion of another provider.
Coverage work designed for a sponsor's private advantage.
