Terms and policies are not notices. They are official corporate records.
Terms and policies are not notices. They are official corporate records.
Privacy Policies, Terms of Service, Marketing Consent Agreements, and Location-Based Service Policies published on corporate websites are not simple reference documents. They function as legally binding records and are frequently reviewed by regulators, partners, and customers. However, many organizations still manage these documents as ordinary static pages or bulletin-board posts. This approach makes it difficult to track revisions, prove applicability by date, and maintain accountability across teams. Over time, operational and legal risks inevitably accumulate.
Limitations of Conventional CMS Approaches to Policy Management
Most CMS platforms treat terms and policies as static pages or generic content entries. While this may appear convenient in the short term, it fails to meet enterprise-level requirements for revision history, legal traceability, and governance.
