These pre-alpha terms are a content plan, not final legal terms. They describe expected conduct and product boundaries while Provenance is still being built.

Users should submit source-linked material in good faith, preserve uncertainty, avoid harassment or doxxing, and avoid presenting unreviewed submissions as confirmed facts.

Reviews, contestations, reputation signals, and audit records exist to improve evidence quality. They are not popularity scores, legal findings, or proof that a person or organization did something wrong.

Provenance may restrict, hide, remove, or require review for submissions that are unsafe, unsupported, abusive, infringing, private, or outside the mission/workspace rules.

Terms still to finalize

  • Define contributor licensing for submitted text, annotations, and metadata.
  • Define private workspace terms and paid workspace obligations.
  • Complete human/legal review before accepting broad public submissions.
