LAYER 02
EXPLAIN / IMPLEMENTATION ARCHITECTURE
Notice and purpose
Connect itemised data and purposes to the exact collection surface, language, version and route for action.
Engineering control
Engineering layer
not a legal conclusion
DEFAULT OWNER MODEL
Product and legal content owners with design and localisation support
LEGAL / STATUS BOUNDARY
Notice-related provisions sit inside the phased framework. Check the status console and current primary text before treating a design as legally operative.
Open status console →SOURCE / STATUS BOUNDARY
Verify the legal status before implementation.
Engineering controlLayer verification pointers
These IDs are verification pointers to the primary-source ledger. They are not provision mappings, applicability findings or legal conclusions.
GOOD SYSTEM PATTERN
Build the path, then test the path.
A notice registry publishes approved versions to collection surfaces and keeps the content, locale, purpose and release event traceable.

EVIDENCE THAT SHOULD EXIST
- Approved notice version and itemised data-purpose pairs
- Collection-surface placement review
- Locale and accessibility test record
- Version-to-event trace for later retrieval
HOW THIS LAYER FAILS
- A generic privacy policy substitutes for collection context
- Changed purposes do not trigger notice review
- The rendered notice cannot be tied to a stored version
ARCHITECTURE → EVIDENCE DECISION JOURNEY
Follow the dependency, then inspect the proof.
Each connection uses existing catalogue records. Source IDs remain verification pointers—not provision mappings.
