Teal Verified is valid for 12 months.
Renewal requires a short annual update, refreshed evidence, and confirmation that no disqualifying conditions are active.
Renewal, status changes, and revocation
Verification is a time-bound trust signal based on evidence of practice. It is not a permanent badge of virtue.
Status reflects reviewed evidence at a point in time and does not guarantee outcomes, future conditions, or unreviewed parts of an organization.
What can trigger review
- Structural regression, such as power recentralizing around one person or group
- Cultural breakdown, such as retaliation, unmanaged conflict, or unsafe silence
- Misrepresentation, such as claims that exceed the public record
- Major change events, such as ownership, leadership, governance, merger, or mission changes
Graduated responses
- Clarification request
- Conditional verified status with a support window
- Paused verification while review or repair occurs
- Revoked verification when evidence no longer supports the claim
The tone standard is firm, neutral, and humane.
Teal Registry corrects public claims to protect trust, not to punish, shame, or perform authority.
