The official policy of the site re:licensing is pretty straightforward. We will not upload works whose scanlation begins after the work has already been officially released. If an ongoing series is licensed, we will follow the lead of the scanlator who worked on it previously. If we are asked to remove a series by a publisher or a scanlator, we will comply. We evaluate all other works that get a license on a case-by-case basis.
In this case, we shouldn't have uploaded this series given that it directly contradicts sentence 2. Outside of edge cases like this, we aren't really in the business of removing chapters already uploaded, unless asked to do so by a relevant party.
As for the red notification, it's simply a relic of a previous era, when the policy was thought to be different. The site has a lot of stuff like this, hopefully we'll get it cleaned up sometime.
