# Compliance & Ethical Framework

Aegis-Graph operates at the intersection of global privacy law and academic integrity. This chapter outlines our commitment to **Privacy-by-Design** and institutional compliance.

## 🛡️ Global Privacy Compliance

The Aegis-Graph protocol is engineered to exceed the requirements of global data protection regulations, including **GDPR (EU)**, **CCPA (USA)**, and **PIPL (China)**.

### Zero-Knowledge Evidence (ZKE)
The core of our compliance is the ZKE model. We do not store:
*   Student Names or Birthdates.
*   Government Identification Numbers.
*   Full Academic Transcripts.

Instead, the system generates a **Boolean Proof (True/False)** based on a localized, ephemeral analysis of these documents.

---

## 🏛️ Institutional Accreditation

Aegis-Graph supports the standards set by global accreditation bodies. Our **Sovereign Academic Graph (SAG)** is audited against:
*   **CHEA (USA)** standards for institutional recognition.
*   **ENIC-NARIC (EU)** frameworks for cross-border qualification recognition.
*   **ROR (Global)** organizational identity standards.

---

## ⚖️ Ethical Auditing

We recognize the potential impact of an audit verdict on an individual's career and reputation. To ensure fairness:
1.  **Transparency**: Every audit comes with a human-readable "Reasoning Trail" explaining the verdict.
2.  **Appeals Process**: Institutions can submit additional "Institutional Proofs" to update or correct node metadata in the SAG.
3.  **Bias Mitigation**: Our MARS agents are trained on diverse global datasets to prevent regional or institutional bias.
