  "statement": "The registered brand name or DBA must appear in the privacy policy the campaign links to.",
  "rationale": "A vetter matches the name on the registration against the name in the policy, and a mismatch is reported as a policy mismatch rather than as a naming question — so a business trading under a shorter name than it registered fails on two documents that are both correct. It is also what tells the consumer whose promise they are reading, which the campaign's samples cannot do for them.",

  "notes": "Absorbs POL-100 (the policy names the company the consumer is consenting to hear from) and BRD-142 (the same entity-naming requirement across the policy and terms). POL-225 makes the stricter comparison across all three documents; this rule is the one-document form, so a brand whose terms page is missing still gets a specific finding here.",
