"I have the authority to make the representations and claims in this 
request"
is useful, but how does a consultant bind Procter & Gamble to the 
limitations on the use of the revealed data?

Best,

> Following up on our productive discussion earlier this week, we’d like 
> to offer a suggestion to modify the “attestation” provisions 
> (II.A.6.c; II.B.7.d; and II.C.6.c) to require a statement by the 
> requestor specifying his/her authority for making the request, or 
> basis for agency if he or she is not the rights holder. For example: 
> “Where the signatory is not the rights holder, he/she must attest that 
> he/she is an authorized representative of the rights holder, capable 
> and qualified to evaluate and address the matters involved in this 
> request, and having the authority to make the representations and 
> claims on behalf of the rights holder in the request.”
>
> We could even spell out the statement for the signatory to make in 
> conjunction with each request : “I attest that I am the rights holder 
> / authorized representative of the rights holder, capable and 
> qualified to evaluate and address the matters involved in this 
> request, and have the authority to make the representations and claims 
> in this request.”
>
> These statements of authority and agency are to be made in good faith, 
> under the penalty of perjury – just like representations forming the 
> basis for the request and the requestor’s promise to use the data 
> disclosed only for limited enumerated purposes – and the falsity of 
> these statements would be redressable by the method(s) we agree on.
