On this page

This register is the release-gate source for section 94. Each feature row must be updated before content lock when a launch surface changes collected data, lawful basis, retention, DSR impact, or transfer mechanism.

Gate Rules#

  • Every feature must document data collected, lawful basis, retention, subject rights impact, and cross-border transfer mechanism.
  • Features touching identifiable data require privacy review before release candidate signoff.
  • Features touching sensitive data, minor data, profiling, AI inference, moderation evidence, biometric-adjacent media, or cross-region transfers require a DPIA before the release gate.
  • The release gate blocks when the DPIA status is required-missing, legal-review-open, or processor-contract-open.
