Authenticity and Identification at thisquality

Authenticity is more than a value for our platform. It’s a requirement. Every contracted employee, contributor, or volunteer who writes for our platform is issued a unique credential identification number. When applicable they receive a physical badge card to support their access to media events and government-issued advisories.

Credentialing and access

Covering stories at the governmental or institutional level often requires strict protocol compliance. Access is granted based on mutual agreements with the agencies or departments involved. As such, not every staff member will receive full credentialed access. Their level of access depends on the clearance associated with their identification number and badge card.

Understanding Credential Identification Numbers (CNI)

These identification numbers are exclusive to each individual affiliated with Quiet Pact Network Limited. They serve as proof of association and authorisation when interacting with government bodies, private entities, and independent organisations.

Credential numbers are primarily used to assign and track attendance at events, ensuring transparency and accountability within our operations.

Managing physical badge cards

Each badge card is linked to its holder via a unique hash ID and an active QR code. When scanned by a member of the public or an official, the QR code reveals the cardholder’s contact information and status.

If a badge is not returned after the end of employment or contract, it becomes inactive and void. The QR code logs metadata such as GPS coordinates and IP/MAC address upon scanning.

If a card remains unreturned beyond a defined period, it may be reported to authorities as stolen company property.

Our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy govern authorisation, including non-disclosure contractual agreements between thisquality and the individual.
