At OXIAE, Ricardo works on websites, web applications and digital systems. His work includes software development, automation and AI applications.

Responsibilities on this platform
Organising the editorial process and the publication of information.
Ensuring that explanations are presented clearly and sources are easy to find.
Clearly distinguishing editorial contributions from legal reviews.
An article by our editors has not automatically been legally assessed. Only after assessment by a verified legal professional or lawyer will we mention their name with the assessed content version. A new assessment is required if there is a subsequent change in content.
Articles and legal review
Articles are published under the name of our editorial team. Editorial responsibility does not mean that Ricardo has personally written or legally reviewed every article.
