Five different kinds of trust

We never use one tick to mean everything.

Identity

A reviewer confirmed that the person managing a record is that professional.

Profile ownership

The professional claimed the record and can edit their own biography, links and services. Ownership never verifies credits by itself.

Credit verification

Each credit has its own status. Verified means a reviewer checked the source and the exact role.

Certification verification

A certification is shown as verified only after the issuing body is checked.

Booking eligibility

The professional opted into enquiries and linked a Yofiri workspace. Recognition is always separate from commercial participation.

Exact roles

We keep the credited title when a source gives one. When it doesn't, the credit reads “Makeup credit” or “Hair credit” — it is never upgraded to lead. Assisting on a production is never presented as personally styling its cast.

Submissions and review

• Draft: Only you can see this. Submit it when it's ready.
• Submitted: Waiting for a Yofiri reviewer.
• Under review: A reviewer is checking the details.
• Needs more evidence: Add a source or document and resubmit.
• Approved: Accepted. Approved credits show their own status — approval is not the same as Verified.
• Rejected: Not supported by the evidence provided.
• Disputed: The credit is marked disputed while the reviewer investigates.

Sources, copyright and privacy

• We prioritise official production credits, professional websites, credited publications, reputable interviews, official campaigns and authorised portfolios.
• We summarise in our own words and never copy biographies or articles wholesale. We don't invent quotations.
• We don't show photographs of real people without suitable rights; records use initials instead.
• A credit never implies endorsement, exclusivity or current representation by a public figure.
• Private ownership evidence and documents are visible only to reviewers.
