• Box roles: CBox role, TBox role (What is this?)

The disclosure posture of a value or claim — an open value vocabulary of individuals (never subclasses) classifying whether and under what conditions the fact may be projected to consumers. The what layer of disclosure control: internalOnly, sensitive, publicCareful, publicSafe, neverPublic, or publicOnlyWithIndependentSource. Orthogonal to sensitivity, determinacy, confidence, and granularity (Principle 9). The conditional case (publicOnlyWithIndependentSource) is resolved against the evidence module's sourceIndependence axis in the solver layer (P12).

Structure

Subclass of: gufo:QualityValue

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:DisclosurePolicy as a specialized kind of gufo:QualityValue. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use as the value vocabulary for the disclosure-posture axis — whether and under what conditions a fact may be released (internalOnly, sensitive, publicCareful, publicSafe, neverPublic, publicOnlyWithIndependentSource).

Avoid when

• Avoid using it as the sensitivity classification (that is gmeow:SensitivityLevel) and avoid per-policy subclasses; policies are individuals, and the conditional case is settled by the solver, not by the vocabulary alone.

How to use

• Reference a seeded policy individual from a value via gmeow:hasDisclosurePolicy; for the conditional posture, let the solver resolve it against the evidence slice's source-independence axis (P12).

Examples

• ex:policyPublicSafe a gmeow:DisclosurePolicy.
