A lapsed participant may be able to keep some profile information visible only if the platform and rules allow it, but the profile must not imply active status.
If a subscription has expired, been cancelled, failed, or lapsed, the participant’s public or member-visible profile should be updated to avoid confusion. It should not show the person as an active subscriber, current Council participant, active Stewardship Pool member, current role holder, room participant, Nexus Universe preparation contributor, or active GRA-related participant unless that status remains valid under specific rules.
GRA or the Nexus Consortium may choose to mark the profile as inactive, lapsed, former participant, archived, or not publicly visible. In some cases, visibility may be reduced or removed entirely.
Historical participation may still be recorded internally. Public visibility should match current status.
A lapsed profile must not become a tool for title inflation, employer confusion, investor signalling, insurance signalling, or public authority overclaiming.
Visibility is not endorsement, and lapsed visibility is not active participation.
