|

<p>
|
|
||||||
The nature of the Subsidiary Policies ("SubPols"):
|
|
||||||
</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<ol type="a"><li>
|
|
||||||
SubPols are purposed to check the organisation
|
|
||||||
under the rules of the jurisdiction that creates the
|
|
||||||
organisation. This does not evidence an intention
|
|
||||||
by CAcert to
|
|
||||||
enter into the local jurisdiction, nor an intention
|
|
||||||
to impose the rules of that jurisdiction over any other
|
|
||||||
organisation.
|
|
||||||
CAcert assurances are conducted under the jurisdiction
|
|
||||||
of CAcert.
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|
||||||
For OAs,
|
|
||||||
SubPol specifies the <i>tests of local knowledge</i>
|
|
||||||
including the local organisation assurance COAP forms.
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|
||||||
For assurances,
|
|
||||||
SubPol specifies the <i>local documentation forms</i>
|
|
||||||
which are acceptable under this SubPol to meet the
|
|
||||||
standard.
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|
||||||
SubPols are subjected to the normal
|
|
||||||
policy approval process.
|
|
||||||
</li></ol>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<h3 id="s3.3"> 3.3 Freedom to Assemble </h3>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<p>
|
|
||||||
Subsidiary Policies are open, accessible and free to enter.
|
|
||||||
</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<ol type="a"><li>
|
|
||||||
SubPols compete but are compatible.
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|
||||||
No SubPol is a franchise.
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|
||||||
Many will be on State or National lines,
|
|
||||||
reflecting the legal
|
|
||||||
tradition of organisations created
|
|
||||||
("incorporated") by states.
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|
||||||
However, there is no need for strict national lines;
|
|
||||||
it is possible to have 2 SubPols in one country, or one
|
|
||||||
covering several countries with the same language
|
|
||||||
(e.g., Austria with Germany, England with Wales but not Scotland).
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|
||||||
There could also be SubPols for special
|
|
||||||
organisations, one person organisations,
|
|
||||||
UN agencies, churches, etc.
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|
||||||
Where it is appropriate to use the SubPol
|
|
||||||
in another situation (another country?), it
|
|
||||||
can be so approved.
|
|
||||||
(e.g., Austrian SubPol might be approved for Germany.)
|
|
||||||
The SubPol must record this approval.

<h3 id="s4.3"> 4.3 Jurisdiction </h3>
|

|

<p>
|

Organisation Assurances are carried out by

CAcert Inc. under its Arbitration jurisdiction.
|
|
||||||
Actions carried out by OAs are under this regime.
|
|
||||||
</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<ol type="a"><li>
|
|
||||||
The organisation has agreed to the terms of the

CAcert Community Agreement.

</li><li>
|
|
||||||
The organisation, the Organisation Assurers, CAcert and

other related parties are bound into CAcert's jurisdiction
|
|
||||||
and dispute resolution.
|
|
||||||
</li><li>
|
|

The OA is responsible for ensuring that the

organisation reads, understands, intends and
|
|
||||||
agrees to the
|
|

CAcert Community Agreement.
|

This OA responsibility should be recorded on COAP

<ol type="a"><li>
|
|

<b> Conflicts of Interest.</b>
|
|

An OA must not assure an organisation in which

there is a close or direct relationship by, e.g.,
|
|
||||||
employment, family, financial interests.
|
|
||||||
Other conflicts of interest must be disclosed.
|

</li><li>
|
|
||||||
<b> Trusted Third Parties.</b>
|
|

TTPs are not generally approved to be part of

organisation assurance,

|
||||||
but may be approved by subsidiary policies according
|
|

to local needs.

</li><li>
|
|
||||||
<b>Exceptional Organisations.</b>
|
|
||||||
(e.g., Vatican, International Space Station, United Nations)
|
|
||||||
can be dealt with as a single-organisation
|
|
||||||
SubPol.
|
|

The OA creates the checks, documents them,

and subjects them to to normal policy approval.

</li><li>
|
|
||||||
<b>DBA.</b>
|
|
||||||
Alternative names for organisations
|
|
||||||
(DBA, "doing business as")
|
|
||||||
can be added as long as they are proven independently.
|
|
||||||
E.g., registration as DBA or holding of registered trade mark.
|
|
||||||
This means that the anglo law tradition of unregistered DBAs
|
|
||||||
is not accepted without further proof.
