Usage Advice

Use when

• Use for the privacy notice document itself — the information object that informs data subjects how their personal data is processed (the dpv:PrivacyNotice / schema:PrivacyPolicy counterpart).

Avoid when

• Avoid conflating the notice document with the consent posture it describes (the rules live on a gmeow:RightsStatement) and avoid using it for an arbitrary policy page with no privacy role.

How to use

• Mint one PrivacyNotice as an information object and attach it with gmeow:hasPrivacyNotice to the governed entity, its gmeow:License, or the gmeow:RightsStatement whose processing rules it documents.

Examples

• ex:notice a gmeow:PrivacyNotice; gmeow:fullText "We process your data to …".
