On the report the Color field reads Purple and the Additional Results field reads No Indications of Heating — both are printed on the paper, and I would rather you read them there than take my word for them. My own assessment is that you will find minor inclusions under 10×; GIA's colored-stone reports carry no clarity grade, so nobody's document is grading that.
