The decision this record supports

What original establishes the publisher’s commitment to this exact offer?

The contact says a slot is available.
Record availability; do not automatically label it a commitment.
The response covers one item or condition only.
Retain its limited scope and ask about the rest.

Terms that matter for this purchase

Scope
One homepage with separately promised desktop and mobile coverage.
Schedule
Review the exact website period and its timezone. A single observation does not cover every moment of that period.
Device and format context
Desktop and mobile
Evidence
Record the exact page, observation time, device or viewport, placement context and access limits for each promised item.
A screenshot matches the placement at one time.
Retain that observation; do not convert it into proof of continuous delivery.
Desktop evidence is available but mobile evidence is missing.
Keep the mobile check pending; desktop cannot complete both commitments.
The responsive mobile position differs from desktop.
Compare each against its own agreed position and record the actual viewport.

What to collect from the original

  • Publisher and named contact — Use the contact on the current original. This is not a verification of selling rights.
  • Buyer brand and market — Record the current buyer context.
  • Quoted purchase total, currency and tax basis — Copy the quoted total. Leave an absent amount or tax basis unknown.
  • Agreed destination URL — Use the current original; no delivery or safety claim follows from a valid URL.
  • Agreed page or page list — Use exact URLs and identify the item covered by each.
  • Position and format — A preferred position is different from a publisher’s actual promise.
  • Agreed device coverage — Keep each promised device explicit; do not infer mobile from desktop.
  • Buying period and timezone — Keep date-only terms as dates. Record exact instants only when agreed.
  • Evidence for each device — Record desktop and mobile separately.
  • Current original and exact version — Give a reference to material you are authorized to use. A link or working record does not verify the publisher.
  • Publisher contact and sent date — Retain who said what and when.
  • Commitment wording and original — An availability reply may not establish commitment.
  • Version and stated limits — Keep conditional or partial commitment visible.
  • Separate buyer acceptance status — Internal approval and buyer acceptance are separate.
