Privacy Models

Authority Provenance

Legal authority and provenance should stay as source labels and records. Honesty note: simplified privacy and cybersecurity model; jurisdictions vary; the pinned first step states the as-of date; not legal advice.

Authority stays as provenance data

The stated process stores notice and policy materials as source records. A source label is not a legal-coverage conclusion.

Example source records

The toy table includes a privacy notice record and a security policy record. The query has 3 recomputed tokens.

The retrieval table counts source rows

Authority and provenance are record fields, not conclusions. This table has 2 source records and 2 token-supported rows.

records=2,support=2\text{records}=2,\quad \text{support}=2

Diagram note

The diagram links source records to provenance labels. It does not say any notice or policy satisfies a law.

Summary

Authority provenance is useful when each source can be traced before any legal review happens.
