Governance Center

spec

Manage consent, identity verification, voice clone permissions, replica revocation, watermarking, audit, policies, takedowns, and data retention. All controls are in specification / planning stage — not yet active in production.

User-created replicas and voice cloning are disabled until consent records, identity verification, and approval workflows are fully configured and tested. Avatar output must be clearly disclosed as AI-generated. All unimplemented controls below reflect the product planning roadmap — none are active in production.

Governance Modules

Consent Records

demo

Manage consent for replicas, voice clones, and data subjects. Each replica and voice must have an active consent record before use in production.

Identity Verification

planned

Verify the identity of replica owners and voice subjects. Required before custom replicas or cloned voices are approved.

User-created replicas disabled until consent architecture and identity verification are active.

Depends on: Consent Records

Voice Clone Permissions

planned

Control which users and agents can clone voices. Voice cloning requires explicit consent, identity verification, and an approved permission record.

Voice cloning disabled until consent records, identity verification, and clone-specific permissions are active.

Depends on: Consent Records, Identity Verification

Replica Revocation

demo

Revoke or suspend replicas when consent is withdrawn or misuse is detected. Reinstatement requires new consent and identity re-verification.

Depends on: Consent Records

Watermarking / C2PA

not_configured

Apply visual and audio watermarks to avatar output. C2PA content credentials for provenance and disclosure are planned for a future update.

Watermarking and C2PA content credentials are not yet implemented. Avatar output should be clearly disclosed as AI-generated.

Audit Logs

planned

Immutable governance audit trail for consent, identity, replica lifecycle, takedowns, policy changes, and safety flags.

Audit log storage and immutability are planned. Current session events are local-only and not durable.

Policy Templates

demo

Allowed-use policies covering content safety, identity misuse, voice clone boundaries, and data handling. Templates require approval before enforcement.

Takedown Requests

demo

Submit and process takedown requests for replicas, voices, videos, transcripts, or sessions. Review workflow requires authorized reviewer assignment.

Takedown workflow is demo-only. Real takedown processing requires legal team integration and manual review.

Depends on: Audit Logs

Data Retention Controls

planned

Configure how long transcriptions, audio, video, lead data, consent records, and audit logs are retained. Purge and export controls coming in a later update.

Data retention controls are planned. Currently no automated purge or export pipeline exists.

Depends on: Audit Logs

Consent Records

Each custom replica or voice clone requires an active consent record. Records transition through pending, active, and revoked states. Revocation immediately disables the associated replica and voice.

Custom replicas and voice cloning remain disabled until production consent verification (liveness check, document verification, or enterprise attestation) exists. No e-signature, identity verification, or legal automation is active. These are demo/static records for specification purposes only.

Audit Logs

Governance audit trail for consent, identity, replica lifecycle, takedowns, policy changes, and safety flags. All events shown are demo/static — no real audit persistence, tamper-proof storage, or production enforcement exists.

All audit events above are static demo records. In production, audit logs must be stored in an append-only, tamper-proof storage system with cryptographic integrity verification. Real audit logs will record actor identity (authenticated user), IP address, user agent, and a cryptographically verifiable chain. No compliance certifications are claimed at this stage.

Data Retention Controls

Specification onlyNot production enforcement yet

All retention policies below are specification / demo only. No automated purge, deletion, or export pipeline exists. Policies require backend persistence, scheduled jobs, and a workflow engine before production enforcement.

Policies

Default Retention Policy

planned

Standard 90-day retention for audio, video, and transcriptions. Lead data kept 365 days. Consent and audit records retained indefinitely.

Governance Center — Implementation Notes

  • • This is a specification and static surface only. No governance controls are active in production.
  • • Consent records, identity verification, and audit logs are not yet implemented.
  • • Watermarking and C2PA content credentials are planned — not configured.
  • • Voice cloning and custom replica creation are disabled until governance is fully configured.
  • • Takedown request workflow is demo-only — legal team integration required before activation.
  • • No compliance certifications are claimed — all modules show their current readiness status.
  • • Real enforcement requires backend persistence, auth, and workflow engine — all deferred.
