Glossary

The words Warden uses, each with the one thing it means.

Warden uses a small set of words, and each means one thing. The same meanings answer the bar at the foot of every page and the Ask warden panel inside the product.

Listings

WordMeans
FindingOne listing or leaked file Warden recorded because it looks like one of your designs. Each has an investigation with its own number and page
SightingOne place Warden saw a finding. A repost of the same file adds a sighting and opens nothing new
ObservationSwarm recorded the listing and nothing about it asked for a person. It stays on record
Needs youWarden asked for a person on this listing and nobody has decided it yet. Only these wait on you. Review shows them one seller or channel at a time, and one decision covers every listing of theirs
In grace untilThe shop is not one your members registered, or its registration is pending, and it still has time to register, until that date. The finding stays where it is either way
ResolvedWarden settled the listing without you, for a reason it recorded on the listing
DecidedSomebody recorded a decision on this listing. A decision outranks Warden's own reading
DismissedSomebody decided this listing is not yours
Watching sellerSomebody chose to watch this seller
Held for evidenceSomebody held this listing until there is more evidence. Warden captures nothing for it yet
Confirmed by youYou answered that the listing shows your design. Your answer outranks everything else Warden has about it

The photograph check

WordMeans
Your published renderThe listing photo is one of your own renders
Not your published renderWarden compared the photo and it is not one of your renders. That says nothing about whose design is in it
Could not be checkedWarden tried to compare the listing photo and could not read it
Not comparedWarden did not compare the listing photo with your renders

Your rules

WordMeans
In forceThe version of your rules Warden reads findings against now. It never changes once in force
DraftA new version you are writing. It changes nothing until you put it in force
CoveredOne rule is met by an active member license that grants it. It says nothing about the seller
Possible conflictThe listing and one of your rules disagree. It is not a legal conclusion
Needs evidenceWarden could not read the rule either way from what it has
Not applicableThe rule does not apply to this listing

Your members

WordMeans
MemberSomebody you recorded as holding a license from you. That is context. It never clears a listing
EntitlementWhat a member's license grants, and whether it is in force, as your records say
CapabilitySomething an entitlement explicitly grants, such as selling printed copies
CredentialA member's public certificate, with a page anybody holding its address can check
ActiveThe member's license is in force, as your records say
InactiveThe member's license is not in force, as your records say
No longer kept currentYour integration undertook to keep this record current and has not confirmed it recently
Shares a storefrontThe storefront is registered to more than one member, so a listing there cannot be tied to one of them
InvitationA link a member uses to add where they sell

Acting

WordMeans
Enforcement packageEverything a takedown would rest on for one investigation, frozen when it was prepared. Warden writes it once and never changes it
NoticeThe letter prepared from a package, addressed to the platform hosting the listing
EnquiryA letter to one of your own members about a listing of theirs. It asks, it alleges nothing, and it is not a notice
WithdrawnSomebody marked the package or letter as one not to use. Nothing inside it changed
Sent by youYou told Warden you sent it, and when. That is your statement and not something Warden saw
AnsweredYou told Warden they replied, and what came of it

Swarm and your library

WordMeans
SwarmThe part of Warden that searches the places in Coverage for your designs
SweepsOn a seller's page, how many of Swarm's scans saw that seller. A sweep is the app's word for one scan
CollectionYour own arrangement of your library. An asset can sit in several. Being in one never proves ownership
Searched firstAmong designs that have waited equally long for a search, Swarm searches these first
RetiredYou took this design out of the library. Swarm no longer searches for it, the findings that name it stay, and you can put it back
Swarm looks hereSwarm checks this place for your designs
Not yetSwarm cannot look here yet. Warden owns this, and there is nothing for you to do
OffSwarm does not look here
PlannedSwarm does not look here yet. Nothing is connected behind it
Not on this planYour plan does not include this place, so Swarm does not look there for you
Your own outletsPlaces you sell yourself. A listing from one of them is never raised as a finding
Engine recordThe technical record of Swarm's checks, closed at the foot of Coverage until you open it
