Start with the entities
A platform supplies software. Clubs organize private communities. Unions connect clubs, and agents may facilitate access. None of those relationships should be assumed.
How access differs
| Entity | Role | What DPH verifies |
|---|---|---|
| App/platform | Provides software | Identity, official sources, observable features |
| Club | Organizes a private community | Published identifier, contact route, relationship, and caveats |
| Agent/directory | May facilitate access | Identity trail and attributed claims |
What a recommendation means
Recommendations are use-case specific and time-bounded. Software availability does not establish the reliability of every organization using it.
