PLENA Registry Stewardship Charter

The 100-year promise needs governance underneath it.

This charter is the first operational bridge from a marketing promise to a future legal stewardship structure for PLENA receipts, refusal logs, standards, and public verification records.

100-year commitmentPublic logOpen registry

Charter principles

1. Receipts outlive campaigns

Public receipt IDs, scope limits, and revocation status should remain reachable even if marketing pages change.

2. Databases stay home

Public verification exposes only safe fields. Private evidence binders remain permissioned, minimized, and protected.

3. Correction beats silent deletion

Errors should be corrected through visible amendment records rather than quiet replacement of public proof history.

4. Refusal logs are civic assets

A system that can say no is valuable. Refusal receipts are preserved, redacted, and explainable.

5. Founder succession must be planned

The registry needs rules for founder incapacity, death, sale, shutdown, or transfer.

6. Independent review should grow

A future advisory board should include law, records, privacy, accessibility, digital identity, and user advocates.

Future legal structure checklist

  • Registry stewardship entity or foundation feasibility review.
  • Board and succession rules.
  • Public-interest archive policy.
  • Annual transparency report.
  • Deletion, redaction, amendment, and revocation policy.
  • Disaster recovery and domain escrow plan.
  • Exit plan if PLENA commercial operations shut down.

How to read this commitment

PLENA’s 100-year commitment is a roadmap commitment that will be in force once a formal legal entity, funding plan, governance board, archive policy, and succession rules are established.
