  Alcoa ethics-and-compliance policy pages plus Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI)
  certification newsfeed and published audit reports, probed 2026-08-30.
note: >-
  Alcoa's published conformance is INDUSTRIAL, not technical. It certifies its mining, refining
  and smelting operations against materials-sector sustainability and management-system
  standards; it publishes no API and therefore conforms to no API or protocol standard.
  Both halves are recorded here so the absence on the technical side is explicit rather than
  merely missing. No domain_standard_conformance is asserted: that check reads a machine-readable
  CONTRACT declaring a standard, and Alcoa publishes no contract.
